> What do I need to cross compile dpdk on an x86 platform for an arm64 target?
You need a cross compiler like the ones provided by Linaro:
https://releases.linaro.org/components/toolchain/gcc-linaro/
The version 5.3 supports ThunderX compilation.
> What environment variables need to be set to cross compile correctly?
export CROSS=aarch64-linux-gnu-
export PATH=$PATH:$root/gcc-linaro-5.3-2016.02-x86_64_aarch64-linux-gnu/bin
make config T=arm64-thunderx-linuxapp-gcc
make
> Where can I find documentation for cross-compiling dpdk?
"make help" or read the programmers guide.
> Where can I find documentation for dpdk on arm?
It is missing currently.
> The current set of documentation only mentions other processors, but goes into details for x86.
Yes. Nobody contributed specific doc for ARM details.
