Ben Walker af935f768e event: Shift subsystem initialization code to a separate library
This is useful for applications even if they elect not to use the SPDK
event framework.

This doesn't shift everything in one go - just the subsystem
initialization logic. Configuration file loading also needs to move
in a separate patch later.

This directory is meant to demonstrate how to link an external application and bdev module to the SPDK libraries. The makefiles contain six examples of linking against spdk libraries. They cover linking an application both with and without a custom bdev. For each of these categories, they also demonstrate linking against the spdk combined shared library, individual shared libraries, and static libraries.

This directory also contains a convenient test script, test_make.sh, which automates making SPDK and testing all six of these linker options. It takes a single argument, the path to an SPDK repository and should be run as follows:

sudo ./test_make.sh /path/to/spdk

The application hello_bdev is a symlink and bdev module passthru_external have been copied from their namesakes in the top level SPDK github repository and don't have any special functionality.
