VPP 2110版本源码编译安装
原文地址：https://www.cnblogs.com/liqinglucky/p/vpp.html
一 介绍
VPP平台是一个提供了交换机/路由器(switch/router)开箱即用(out-of-the-box)产品功能的可拓展框架。由思科 Vector Packet Processing (VPP)技术开源而来。VPP是一个高性能(high performance)数据包处理栈，可以运行在商用(commodity)CPU上。
使用VPP好处是高性能(high performance)，实践检验的成熟技术(proven technology)，模块化(modularity)和易于扩展(flexibility)，以及丰富的功能集(rich feature set)。
VPP技术经过实践检验，已经用于超过数十亿的思科产品上。产品模块化设计，框架允许通过以插件形式新增图节点(graph nodes)作扩展而不需要去改变VPP的核心(core/kernel)代码。
VPP在裸机/虚拟机/容器中的应用：

二 编译
编译环境
Ubuntu 20.04.4 LTS
编译VPP
官方文档：VPP/Pulling, Building, Running, Hacking and Pushing VPP Code - fd.io
1 下载源码
建议通过clone方式下载。我通过源码包的方式编译过，容易出问题。
git clone https://gerrit.fd.io/r/vpp
切到VPP 2110版本的分支
vpp# git checkout -b stable/2110 --track origin/stable/2110
vpp# ls
build build-root docs extras LICENSE Makefile RELEASE.md test
build-data configure doxygen INFO.yaml MAINTAINERS README.md src
编译源码
按照官方给的编译命令编译
# vpp 18.10+ (cmake)
make install-dep
make install-ext-deps
make build # or `make build-release`
2 安装依赖包
vpp# make install-dep
vpp# make install-ext-deps
Removing deb/debian/vpp-ext-deps.substvars
Removing deb/debian/vpp-ext-deps/
make[2]: Leaving directory '/vpp/build/external'
Selecting previously unselected package vpp-ext-deps.

Setting up vpp-ext-deps (21.10-8) ...
make[1]: Leaving directory '/vpp/build/external'
这一步需要下载dpdk等包会比较久。也可以事先拷贝已下载好的dpdk包放至build/external/downloads目录。
vpp/build/external/downloads# ls
dpdk-21.08.tar.xz pyelftools-0.29-py2.py3-none-any.whl setuptools-67.3.2-py3-none-any.whl wheel-0.38.4-py3-none-any.whl
meson-0.55.0.tar.gz quicly_0.1.3-vpp.tar.gz v0.2.tar.gz
nasm-2.14.02.tar.xz rdma-core-35.0.tar.gz v1.0.tar.gz
3 编译
编译参数可以研究vpp/makefile。
vpp# make build

解决：再次执行make install-ext-deps重新下载或者从其他地方拷贝已经下载好的依赖包到对应目录。
2 dpkg-buildpackage: error: version number does not start with digit
vpp# make install-ext-deps

vpp# make build
