Noticed this in coding_style.rst, it should be changed.
The make build will be deprecated.


Integrating with the Build System
---------------------------------

DPDK supports being built in two different ways:

* using ``make`` - or more specifically "GNU make", i.e. ``gmake`` on FreeBSD
* using the tools ``meson`` and ``ninja``

Any new library or driver to be integrated into DPDK should support being
built with both systems. While building using ``make`` is a legacy approach, and
most build-system enhancements are being done using ``meson`` and ``ninja``
there are no plans at this time to deprecate the legacy ``make`` build system
