[dpdk-dev] building LIBRTE_PMD_XENVIRT in 32bit triggers some errors

[Christian Ehrhardt]

Hi,
just FYI - building LIBRTE_PMD_XENVIRT in 32bit triggers some errors.

I don't know if that part of the tree is actively maintained - It is
default off, in the config template config/common_linuxapp.

I'm not even entirely sure if  LIBRTE_PMD_XENVIRT is still required.
I guess in the Dom0 you can go with uio-pci-generic these days, not
sure about para-virtual guests.

Anyway I thought it might be worth to at least report.
