[dpdk-users] Is there a dynamic version of the library (i.e, libdpdk.so)?

Hi,


I have an application build on top of mTCP  https://github.com/mtcp-stack/mtcp , which in turn is build on top of DPDK.

I am trying to port that application into an SGX enclave using Graphene-SGX https://github.com/oscarlab/graphene . To do such I need to mount binaries into Graphene in-visible paths. I am trying to check for a dynamic library version of DPDK but it seems there is none. Is there any way that I can build DPDK and getting a dynamic version of it? What I see in DPDK github repository is that DPDK uses some libraries located at /x86_64-linuxapp-gcc/lib and these libraries are a collection of static libraries of librte. I am trying to avoid static libraries because of performance issues when using Graphene-SGX.


 Is there an way to build DPDK and get a dynamic linking and if so can you please tell me how to build DPDK in that way?
