Some kernel modules may need some header files to be "installed"
in the build directory.

When running multiple threads of make, kernel modules can try to
be compiled before the lib headers are ready:
	make -j3
	kernel/linux/kni/kni_misc.c:19:37: fatal error:
		exec-env/rte_kni_common.h: No such file or directory

Is there a reason to keep header in eal when module itself moved into kernel?

It seems you missed my comment below:

On a related note, this header file
        lib/librte_eal/linuxapp/eal/include/exec-env/rte_kni_common.h
could be moved to lib/librte_kni/
Opinion?

Ahh, yes we are saying same thing.
But not sure if it should go under lib/librte_kni/ or kernel/linux/kni/?
I lean to kernel/linux/kni/.
