[dpdk-dev] [PATCH 1/1] devtools: avoid installing static binaries

[Thomas Monjalon]

When testing compilation and checking ABI compatibility,
there is no real need of static binaries eating disks.
The static linkage of applications are tested with GCC and Clang,
plus some examples are statically linked.
The after-installation build test is limited to "helloworld" example.
Note the meson static build test was already limited to "l3fwd" example.

The ABI compatibility is checked on shared libraries, so no need
running this test a second time on builds intended for static linking.
However, limiting ABI check to "shared builds" means all test cases
must have a "shared build" occurence.
As a consequence the 32-bit build test is switched to shared linking.
