Hello,

What is not clear to me is motivation to use weak here instead of simply using CONFIG_RTE_I40E_INC_VECTOR macro to exclude stubs in i40e_rxtx.c. It will make library smaller and avoid issues like this one which are quite hard to troubleshoot.
Since this issue seen in fd.io, I didn't investigated more, but I don't want to clock your valid question, this is an attempt to resurrect the question ...
BTW Looks like same issue is happening with fm10k driver.
