This is not optimal, so this patchset aims to provide a single source for the DPDK version. The options considered are: * Keep version info in rte_version.h only. The two reasons this was not chosen were: 1) parsing the version number from the header is awkward, as seen in the rte.sdkconfig.mk file, and a script to do so would be needed to integrate that into the meson build project definition. 2) rte_version.h is not in an obvious location inside the project when a user clones from git. It's hidden away in the "lib/librte_eal/common/include" folder. Ideally the version number should be evident at the top level of the DPDK tree. * Keep version info in meson.build file only. This seemed a better option than keeping the info in rte_version.h, but it still had disadvantages: 1) For make, using grep on meson.build to extract the version seemed a bit awkward, though doable. Splitting the version was tricky too, but manageable with a small amount of scripting. 2) There was no easy way to have users access the version number when "make showversion" was deprecated with the make build system. * Store the version number in a new version file at the root level of the repo. * This did have the advantage of being easily discoverable on clone * Still had the disadvantage of needing some parsing to generate the defines from rte_version.h Since the last option seemed best, that is what is implemented in this set. The file DPDK_VERSION is added to store the version number, and make and meson both use that as their source of version info. For C code, the rte_version.h header remains, except that the basic definitions of the release YEAR, MONTH, MINOR etc. are moved to be automatically generated as part of rte_config.h. For make builds, this is done via using the preprocessor to insert the values when it generates the config. For meson builds, this is done by just adding the values to the dpdk_conf configuration object. --- V3: Reworked following review from Thomas Monjalon. Main change is to how the RTE_VER_RELEASE value is computed for non-release candidates. Also added int() conversion to each version value to remove leading zeros V2: Updated following review from David Marchand.
