Before this patch, the management of dependencies between directories
had several issues:
- the generation of .depdirs, done at configuration is slow: it can take
more than one minute on some slow targets (usually ~10s on a standard
PC without -j).
- for instance, it is possible to express a dependency like:
- app/foo depends on lib/librte_foo
- and lib/librte_foo depends on app/bar
But this won't work because the directories are traversed with a
depth-first algorithm, so we have to choose between doing 'app' before
or after 'lib'.
- the script depdirs-rule.sh is too complex.
- we cannot use "make -d" for debug, because the output of make is used for
the generation of .depdirs.
This patch moves the DEPDIRS-* variables in the upper Makefile, making
the dependencies much easier to calculate. A DEPDIRS variable is still
used to process library dependencies in LDLIBS.
After this commit, "make config" is almost immediate.

To differentiate libraries that break ABI, we add a library version number
suffix to the library, which must be incremented when a given libraries ABI is
broken. This patch enforces that addition, sets the initial abi soname
extension to 1 for each library and creates a symlink to the base SONAME so that
the test applications will link properly.

Before the patch, a call to rte_kvargs_tokenize() resulted in a call to
strdup() to allocate a modifiable copy of the argument string. This
string was never freed, excepted in the error cases of
rte_kvargs_tokenize() where rte_free() was wrongly called instead of
free(). In other cases, freeing this string was impossible as the
pointer not saved.
This patch introduces rte_kvargs_free() in order to free the structure
properly. The pointer to the duplicated string is now kept in the
rte_kvargs structure. A call to rte_kvargs_parse() directly allocates
the structure, making rte_kvargs_init() useless.
The only drawback of this API change is that a key/value associations
cannot be added to an existing kvlist. But it's not used today, and
there is not obvious use case for that.
