Looking at commits the last version known to compile seems to be 4.2.

linuxmodule implies dependencies in some elements and bits of code which are not under elements/linuxmodule neither linuxmodule. I think you're taking the wrong path to the problem. Can we have...

May be a stupid question, but does it fail if you try to use those elements?

It's because of commit 426ecaa3f9bd64111ad7009f5089112bc85afdd5 from @kohler which disable compilation of linuxmodule elements. Did that was left on purpose? Temp fix is to remove false at the end of elements/linuxmodule/fromdevice.cc

This is probably linked to uClibc or the arch not supporting something... uClibc 9.33.2 was out in '12 it seems. Won't help...

Apart from the small comment it looks good to me. I just wonder about the performance impact? It is a fast-path element and that may effect a lot of peoples....

I tried to generate multiple L2 flows (1-256) to evaluate the performance impact of this element but I could not see any clear impact. I guess this make a very...

Will look into this ;) Never tried packaging DPDK before, so it is probably valid....

Can you give the command you use to create the sample package? Never done that before, it will be easier...

The DPKD build process is a little bit of a mess, I probably drop the "-l samplepackage" LDFLAGS or something. I'm trying to compile the package to verify that.
