INSTALLING DPDK USING THE MESON BUILD SYSTEM
---------------------------------------------
-NOTE: Compiling and installing DPDK using ``meson`` and ``ninja``, rather
-than using ``make`` (GNU make) is EXPERIMENTAL. Official builds of DPDK
-should always be done using ``make``, as described in the ``Getting Started

For example if the target machine is arm64 we can use the following
command::
- meson arm-build --cross-file config/arm/arm64_armv8_linuxapp_gcc
+ meson arm-build --cross-file config/arm/arm64_armv8_linux_gcc
