I think this change is independent of the meson build. It merely takes the meson build into account, from what I can tell. > Ian

DPDK 18.11 builds using the more modern meson build system no more provide the -ldpdk linker script. Instead it is expected to use pkgconfig for linker options as well. This change will set DPDK_LIB from pkg-config (if pkg-config was available) and since that already carries the whole-archive flags around the PMDs skips the further wrapping in more whole-archive if that is already part of DPDK_LIB.
