That is correct.
Now, you can use COMBINE_LIB with or without SHARED_LIB.
The result is, as you said, combining all DPDK libraries into a single

I don't think there is any info/doc regarding  those config options 
(someone else can correct me on this),
but I would think that the GSG (Getting Started Guide) would be a good 
place to add such doc.
