Logging can be controlled in runtime, that is what we should use. In data path, we use compile time flags because of the performance issues. So OK to have 'CONFIG_RTE_LIBRTE_ARK_DEBUG_RX' & 'CONFIG_RTE_LIBRTE_ARK_DEBUG_TX' as compile time flag, but why having compile time flag for rest? > > +Note that enabling debugging options may affect system performance. > +These options may be set by specifying them in CFLAG > +environment before the meson build set.

The point we are reducing compile time flags: 1) It forks the code paths and by time it leave not tested, even not compiled code paths which may cause rotten code by time. 2) Multiple code paths will lead deployment problems. When you deploy an application, you won't able to change the compile time configuration in customer environment and need to re-compile (most probably re-test) and re-deploy it. Also there is not easy way to figure out from binary in customer environment that with which compile time flags it has been built. Switching to CFLAGS="..." doesn't make above concerns go away and indeed it makes (1) worst since hides the config options within the driver. Previously it was possible to trigger each config option and do testing using scripts, now since config options are hidden in driver we can't do even that. Can you please detail why "ARK_TX_PAD_TO_60" is needed exactly? And can you please justify why it has to be compile time config option? <...> > @@ -11,3 +11,5 @@ sources = files('ark_ddm.c', > 'ark_pktgen.c', > 'ark_rqp.c', > 'ark_udm.c') > + > +install_headers('ark_ext.h') > Installing PMD header file is not required but this has an unique usage. Ark PMD is wrapper to the external shared library which should implement the functions that has prototypes in the 'ark_ext.h'. Since this header is not needed by users of the dpdk library, but needed by extension developers for the ark PMD, I think the header should not be installed.
