I did some experiment and found some interesting things.  I will take eal.c
as an example

eal.c is split into eal_common_sysfs.c eal_common_mem_cfg.c
eal_common_proc_type.c and eal_common_app_usage.c. In linuxapp/eal/Makefile
if I compile new files right after eal.c as shown below

SRCS-$(CONFIG_RTE_LIBRTE_EAL_LINUXAPP) := eal.c
SRCS-$(CONFIG_RTE_LIBRTE_EAL_LINUXAPP) += eal_common_sysfs.c
SRCS-$(CONFIG_RTE_LIBRTE_EAL_LINUXAPP) += eal_common_mem_cfg.c
SRCS-$(CONFIG_RTE_LIBRTE_EAL_LINUXAPP) += eal_common_proc_type.c
SRCS-$(CONFIG_RTE_LIBRTE_EAL_LINUXAPP) += eal_common_app_usage.c
...

validate-abi results matches baseline. Instead if i place new _common_
files in common area in linuxapp/eal/Makefile as shown below

# from common dir
SRCS-$(CONFIG_RTE_LIBRTE_EAL_LINUXAPP) += eal_common_memzone.c
SRCS-$(CONFIG_RTE_LIBRTE_EAL_LINUXAPP) += eal_common_log.c
...

validate-abi reports problem in binary compatibility and source
compatiblity

eal_filesystem.h, librte_eal.so.1
 [+] eal_parse_sysfs_value ( char const* filename, unsigned long* val )
 @@ DPDK_2.0 (2)

I believe files in common and linuxapp directory are compiled same way so
not sure why placement in makefile makes difference.

Could this be false-positive from validate-abi script??
