It works well too.

According your suggest, I use test-meson-builds.sh, and pass.

TestEnv: x86_64
         gcc version: gcc version 7.5.0 (Ubuntu 7.5.0-3ubuntu1~18.04)
         aarch64-linux-gnu-gcc version: gcc version 7.5.0 (Ubuntu/Linaro 7.5.0-3ubuntu1~18.04)
Changes: 1) set 'DPDK_MESON_OPTIONS="max_numa_nodes=1"' in .develconfig (because don't have libnuma)
         2) disable compile event/* driver when build armv8 (fix compile drivers/event/cnxk/deq/cn10k/deq_*.c error: Error: reg pair must start from even reg at operand 1 -- `caspal x7,x8,x7,x8,[x4]')
