Yes I suggest to create a file ~/.config/dpdk/devel.config to adapt the
configuration to your system.
Once you have installed the required dependencies, you can make this kind
of configuration:

mlxdep=$root/mlx/mofed-3.3-1.0.0.0
szedep=$root/sze/usr-1.1.4
if echo $DPDK_TARGET | grep -q '^x86_64' ; then
    export DPDK_DEP_ARCHIVE=y
    export DPDK_DEP_ZLIB=y
    export DPDK_DEP_PCAP=y
    export DPDK_DEP_SSL=y
    export DPDK_DEP_MOFED=y
    export DPDK_DEP_SZE=y
    export DPDK_DEP_CFLAGS="-I$mlxdep/include -I$szedep/include"
    export DPDK_DEP_LDFLAGS="-L$mlxdep/lib -L$szedep/lib64 -rpath=$szedep/lib64"
    export AESNI_MULTI_BUFFER_LIB_PATH=$root/aesni/ipsec-043
    export LIBSSO_SNOW3G_PATH=$root/libsso/libsso-snow3g-0.3.1
    export LIBSSO_KASUMI_PATH=$root/libsso/libsso-kasumi-0.3.1
fi

It is a good idea to test also with clang (x86_64-native-linuxapp-clang)
and another arch (e.g. arm64-thunderx-linuxapp-gcc).
