I think best solution is to find the root cause and fix either avx2 implementation or compiler, but this seems won't be soon, at least for rc2. What this patch does is to prevent compiler to use avx512f instruction when "CONFIG_RTE_ENABLE_AVX512=n". Concern is this will affect all DPDK generated code for x86, but since rte_memcpy() in header file there is no way to disable using avx512f instructions locally for rte_memcpy(). I can't think of any other solution for now, so OK to go with this patch for now.

AUTO_CPUFLAGS already should have what you are looking for, so I think this check can be removed. > +MACHINE_CFLAGS += -mno-avx512f > +endif > endif > endif > >
