Can you give me the directory and command line used, plus the OS type and version?

I normally do the following

# cd <dpdk-top-directory>
# export RTE_SDK=`pwd`
# export RTE_TARGET=x86_64-native-linuxapp-gcc
# make install T=x86_64-native-linuxapp-gcc

You will get a warning at the end of the build, but only because I used ‘install’ and did not give the install directory.
The command does not install the code, but builds the x86_64-native-linuxapp-gcc directory.

As a side note I use two bash alias scripts to setup and build DPDK, just so I do not have to type it all out.
Here they are if you want to used them

function _rte() {
    if [ "$1" != "" ]; then
        export RTE_SDK=`pwd`
        export RTE_TARGET=`basename $1`
        echo "RTE_SDK: "$RTE_SDK " RTE_TARGET: "$RTE_TARGET
    else
        echo "Currently RTE_SDK: "$RTE_SDK " RTE_TARGET: "$RTE_TARGET
    fi
}

function _bld() {
    echo make -C ${RTE_SDK} install T=${RTE_TARGET} $@ -j
    make -C ${RTE_SDK} install T=${RTE_TARGET} $@ -j
}

alias rte=_rte $@
alias bld=_bld $@


Then cd into top level dpdk directory

# rte x86_64-native-linuxapp-gcc
# rte          # just gives the current variable state

or
# rte x86<tab>   # if the x86_64-native-linuxapp-gcc directory exists

# bld      # will cd to RTE_SDK and do the build and return to current directory
