[dpdk-dev] [PATCH v2] scripts: add script for generating customised build config

Bruce Richardson bruce.richardson at intel.com
Fri Apr 29 17:48:11 CEST 2016


This patch adds in the configure.py script file. It can be used to
generate custom build-time configurations for DPDK either manually on
the commandline or by calling it from other scripts. It takes as parameters
the base config template to use, and output directory to which the modified
configuration will be written. Other optional parameters are then taken
as y/n values which should be adjusted in the config file, and a special
-m flag is provided to override the default RTE_MACHINE setting in the
config template too.

Example, to create a build configuration with extra non-default PMDs
enabled, and the kernel modules disabled:

  ./scripts/configure.py -b $RTE_TARGET -o $RTE_TARGET PMD_PCAP=y \
     IGB_UIO=n KNI_KMOD=n MLX4_PMD=y MLX5_PMD=y SZEDATA2=y \
     NFP_PMD=y BNX2X_PMD=y

See the included help text in the script for more details.

+Generates a new DPDK build time configuration in the given output directory,
+using as a starting point the provided base configuration. Once completed
+successfully, DPDK can then be built using that configuration by running the
+command "make -C <output_dir>".
+
+-b, --base-config=CONFIG
+    Use the configuration given by CONFIG as the starting point for the
+    build configuration. CONFIG must be a valid DPDK default configuration
+    provided by a file "defconfig_CONFIG" in the top level "config"
+    directory.
+    Valid --base-config values:\n\t\t%s
+
+-o, --output-dir=DIR
+    Use DIR as the resulting output directory. If unspecified the default
+    value of "build" is used.
+
+-m, --machine-type=TYPE
+    Override the machine-type value given in the default configuration by
+    setting it to TYPE. Using regular options, regular y/n values can be
+    changed, but not string options, so this explicit override for machine
+    type exists to allow changing it.
+
+-h, --help
+    Print this help text and then exit
+
+Other options passed after these on the commandline should be in the format of
+"name=y|n" and are overrides to be applied to the configuration to toggle the
+y|n settings in the file.
+
+Matches are applied on partial values, so for example "DEBUG=y" will turn on
+all options ending in "DEBUG". This means that a full option need not always be
+specified, for example, "CONFIG_RTE_LIBRTE_" prefixes can generally be omitted.
+
+Examples:
+
+To generate a configuration for DPDK
+- based off x86_64-native-linuxapp-gcc,
+- changing the machine type to "default",
+- turning on the pcap PMD,
+- disabling the KNI and igb_uio kernel modules, and
+- placing the output in a suitably named folder
+use:
+
+    %s -o x86_64-default-linuxapp-gcc -b x86_64-native-linuxapp-gcc \\
+        -m default PMD_PCAP=y IGB_UIO=n KNI_KMOD=n
