.. _Building_Your_Own_Application:
Compiling a Sample Application in the Development Kit Directory
---------------------------------------------------------------
-When compiling a sample application (for example, hello world), the following variables must be exported:
-RTE_SDK and RTE_TARGET.
+To compile a sample application with make (for example, hello world):
.. code-block:: console
~/DPDK$ cd examples/helloworld/
- ~/DPDK/examples/helloworld$ export RTE_SDK=/home/user/DPDK
- ~/DPDK/examples/helloworld$ export RTE_TARGET=x86_64-native-linuxapp-gcc
~/DPDK/examples/helloworld$ make
- CC main.o
- LD helloworld
- INSTALL-APP helloworld
- INSTALL-MAP helloworld.map
The binary is generated in the build directory by default:
~/DPDK/examples/helloworld$ ls build/app
helloworld helloworld.map
+Please refer to :doc:`../linux_gsg/build_dpdk` for details on compiling with meson.
+
Build Your Own Application Outside the Development Kit
------------------------------------------------------
~$ cp -r DPDK/examples/helloworld my_rte_app
~$ cd my_rte_app/
- ~/my_rte_app$ export RTE_SDK=/home/user/DPDK
- ~/my_rte_app$ export RTE_TARGET=x86_64-native-linuxapp-gcc
~/my_rte_app$ make
- CC main.o
- LD helloworld
- INSTALL-APP helloworld
- INSTALL-MAP helloworld.map
Customizing Makefiles
---------------------
Application Makefile
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
-The default makefile provided with the Hello World sample application is a good starting point. It includes:
-
-* $(RTE_SDK)/mk/rte.vars.mk at the beginning
-
-* $(RTE_SDK)/mk/rte.extapp.mk at the end
+The default makefile provided with the Hello World sample application is a good starting point.
The user must define several variables:
* APP: Contains the name of the application.
* SRCS-y: List of source files (\*.c, \*.S).
-
-Library Makefile
-~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
-
-It is also possible to build a library in the same way:
-
-* Include $(RTE_SDK)/mk/rte.vars.mk at the beginning.
-
-* Include $(RTE_SDK)/mk/rte.extlib.mk at the end.
-
-The only difference is that APP should be replaced by LIB, which contains the name of the library. For example, libfoo.a.
-
-Customize Makefile Actions
-~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
-
-Some variables can be defined to customize Makefile actions. The most common are listed below. Refer to
-:ref:`Makefile Description <Makefile_Description>` section in
-:ref:`Development Kit Build System <Development_Kit_Build_System>`
-
-chapter for details.
-
-* VPATH: The path list where the build system will search for sources. By default,
- RTE_SRCDIR will be included in VPATH.
-
-* CFLAGS_my_file.o: The specific flags to add for C compilation of my_file.c.
-
-* CFLAGS: The flags to use for C compilation.
-
-* LDFLAGS: The flags to use for linking.
-
-* CPPFLAGS: The flags to use to provide flags to the C preprocessor (only useful when assembling .S files)
-
-* LDLIBS: A list of libraries to link with (for example, -L /path/to/libfoo - lfoo)
