Subject: [dpdk-dev] [PATCH 2/2] eal: add support for driver directory concept
Date: Wed, 21 Oct 2015 11:29:34 +0300	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <0df011be4afdecedb49b44e583c128e8343e621a.1445415982.git.pmatilai@redhat.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <cover.1445415982.git.pmatilai@redhat.com>
In-Reply-To: <cover.1445415982.git.pmatilai@redhat.com>

Add a new EAL option -D for loading all drivers from a given directory.
Additionally a default driver directory can be set in build-time
configuration, in which case it will be always be used when EAL is
initialized (but can be overridden or disabled with -D).

This simplifies usage in shared library configuration significantly over
manually loading individual drivers with -d, and allows distros to
establish a drop-in driver directory for seamless integration
with 3rd party drivers etc.
