[dpdk-users] How can I update the compilation of my 16.11.11-1+deb9u2 version DPDK project to 18.11.11-1~deb10u1

Dear DPDK Users,

I hope that I am writing to the right place, I have just signed to this 
mailing list.

I have written siitperf, a DPDK-based, RFC 8219 compliant SIIT tester: 
https://github.com/lencsegabor/siitperf/

Currently, I can compile it under Debian 9 (DPDK version is: 
16.11.11-1+deb9u2) using the following Makefile, which I wrote on the 
basis of an example:

https://github.com/lencsegabor/siitperf/blob/master/Makefile-tp

It needs the environment variables set by the 
/usr/share/dpdk/dpdk-sdk-env.sh, which is a part of the version 
16.11.11-1+deb9u2 "dpdk-dev" Debian package.

However, I need to use Debian 10 instead of Debian 9, for hardware 
support issues.

Unfortunately, I have experienced, that the dpdk-sdk-env.sh file is 
missing from DPDK 18.11.11.
( I have also read that dpdk-sdk-env.sh is no longer included: 
https://linux.debian.bugs.dist.narkive.com/gOb82oOD/bug-921043-dpdk-dev-dpdk-sdk-env-sh-no-longer-included-in-dpdk-dev 
.)

Of course, I could set the environment variables manually as follows:

export RTE_TARGET="x86_64-default-linuxapp-gcc"
export RTE_SDK="/usr/share/dpdk/"
export RTE_INCLUDE="/usr/include/dpdk"

However it does not help:

root at tester:~/siitperf# make
Makefile:54: /usr/share/dpdk//mk/rte.extapp.mk: No such file or directory
make: *** No rule to make target '/usr/share/dpdk//mk/rte.extapp.mk'.  Stop.
root at tester:~/siitperf# find / -name rte.extapp.mk
root at tester:~/siitperf#

As you can see, "rte.extapp.mk" does not exist any more.

Could anyone help me, how to compile my project under DPDK 18.11.11?

Thank you very much for your help in advance!

Best regards,

Gábor Lencse
