There is no reason for the DPDK libraries to all have 'librte_' prefix on
the directory names. This prefix makes the directory names longer and also
makes it awkward to add features referring to individual libraries in the
build - should the lib names be specified with or without the prefix.
Therefore, we can just remove the library prefix and use the library's
unique name as the directory name, i.e. 'eal' rather than 'librte_eal'

KNI runs userspace callback with rtnl lock held, this is not working
fine with some devices that needs to interact with kernel interface in
the callback, like Mellanox devices.
The solution is releasing the rtnl lock before calling the userspace
callback. But it requires two consideration:
1. The rtnl lock needs to released before 'kni->sync_lock', otherwise it
causes deadlock with multiple KNI devices, please check below the A.
for the details of the deadlock condition.
2. When rtnl lock is released for interface down event, it cause a
regression and deadlock, so can't release the rtnl lock for interface
down event, please check below B. for the details.
As a solution, interface down event is handled asynchronously and for
all other events rtnl lock is released before processing the callback.
A. KNI sync lock is being locked while rtnl is held.
If two threads are calling kni_net_process_request() ,
then the first one will take the sync lock, release rtnl lock then sleep.
The second thread will try to lock sync lock while holding rtnl.
The first thread will wake, and try to lock rtnl, resulting in a
deadlock. The remedy is to release rtnl before locking the KNI sync
lock.
Since in between nothing is accessing Linux network-wise, no rtnl
locking is needed.
B. There is a race condition in __dev_close_many() processing the
close_list while the application terminates.
It looks like if two KNI interfaces are terminating,
and one releases the rtnl lock, the other takes it,
updating the close_list in an unstable state,
causing the close_list to become a circular linked list,
hence list_for_each_entry() will endlessly loop inside
__dev_close_many() .
To summarize:
request != interface down : unlock rtnl, send request to user-space,
wait for response, send the response error code to caller in user-space.
request == interface down: send request to user-space, return immediately
with error code of 0 (success) to user-space.

The KNI linux module is using a custom target for building, which
doesn't take into account any cross compilation arguments. The arguments
in question are ARCH, CROSS_COMPILE (for gcc, clang) and CC, LD (for
clang). Get those from the cross file and pass them to the custom
target.
The user supplied path may not contain the 'build' directory, such as
when using cross-compiled headers, so only append that in the default
case (when no path is supplied in native builds) and use the unmodified
path from the user otherwise. Also modify the install path accordingly.
