[ovs-dev] --with-dpdk configure option issue

[Mauricio Vásquez]

Dear All,

I noticed that when I run the command
./configure --with-dpdk=$SOME_NON_EXISTING_ENV_VAR
it does not give me an error, somewhere it says:
"checking whether dpdk datapath is enabled... no" but there is not an
explicit error.

I think this behavior should be avoided, an explicit error should be
printed to avoid any possible confusion, as for example when DPDK_BUILD is
not set.

Bhanuprakash, I CC'ed you because you are author of 40b5ea86319f
("acinclude: Autodetect DPDK location when configuring OVS"), then I think
you know how  to fix it.

Mauricio V,
