[dpdk-dev] [PATCH v2 16/19] app/chkincs: add chkincs app to verify headers

Bruce Richardson bruce.richardson at intel.com
Fri Jan 15 12:10:48 CET 2021


To verify that all DPDK headers are ok for inclusion directly in a C
file, and are not missing any other pre-requisite headers, we can
auto-generate for each header an empty C file that includes that header.
Compiling these files will throw errors if any header has unmet
dependencies.

The list of headers to check is based of the "headers" value returned from
each library's meson.build file. However, since not all headers are for
direct inclusion, add a build variable "headers_no_chkincs" to list those
headers and skip checking them.

v2:
* add maintainers entry
* distribute exception list among meson.build files.
