[dpdk-dev] [PATCH 2/2] doc: update Mellanox supported OFED version

[Tom Barbette]

I completely removed with apt remove --purge all packages installed by 
the OFED, deleted with rm -rf /usr/include/infiniband/ and then 
installed the OFED with --dpdk --upstream-libs (--force) and nothing 
else and I get the compilation error (with 19.02).

Indeed /usr/include/infiniband/mlx5_api.h defines :
mlx5_ib_uapi_flow_action_packet_reformat_type

Which is also in 19.02's mlx5_glue.h:
enum  mlx5dv_flow_action_packet_reformat_type

Is the MD5SUM of the (result of the install of the) last OFED that one?
35cb5be56993977f1d9d912e263428c8  /usr/include/infiniband/mlx5_api.h

If it is, then I would bet the problem is around the ifndef enclosing 
the re-definition in mlx5_glue.hh : #ifndef HAVE_IBV_FLOW_DV_SUPPORT


Thanks,

Tom
