+- ``CONFIG_RTE_LIBRTE_MLX4_DLOPEN_DEPS`` (default **n**)
+
+ Build PMD with additional code to make it loadable without hard
+ dependencies on **libibverbs** nor **libmlx4**, which may not be installed
+ on the target system.
+
+ In this mode, their presence is still required for it to run properly,
+ however their absence won't prevent a DPDK application from starting (with
+ ``CONFIG_RTE_BUILD_SHARED_LIB`` disabled) and they won't show up as

+ This option has no performance impact.
