[dpdk-dev] [RFC PATCH] build: allow passing extra config header to build

Thu Nov 12 17:31:34 CET 2020
To allow per-build override of some settings, without having to change
DPDK source-code files, i.e. rte_config.h, we can add an option to allow
the user to pass in a file containing their own defines for the build.

This is just a quick RFC to show what might be possible and to help keep the
discussion going on how to improve build config in DPDK!
