I am trying to compile dpdk sample application using following CMakelist.txt
cmake_minimum_required(VERSION 3.10)
link_directories(/usr/local/lib/aarch64-linux-gnu/)
include_directories(/usr/local/include)
SET(DPDK_LIBS "-Wl,--whole-archive -l dpdk -Wl,--no-whole-archive")
add_executable(basicfwd basicfwd.c )
target_link_libraries(basicfwd LINK_PUBLIC ${DPDK_LIBS} )
Compilation Error occurs

Missing .so files are available in previous dpdk version. I need to use newer version of dpdk.
#locate librte_rawdev_ntb.so

# locate librte_pmd_ice.so

I have 2 versions of dpdk in my system.19.11 and dpdk-stable-20.11. Currently using dpdk-stable-20.11 Tried with default Makefile that comes with sample application. Above mentioned library file missing error is not happening.

Do I need to do any modification in CMakeLists.txt. Please provide suggestions to resolve this
Edit: I have modified CMakeList.txt
cmake_minimum_required(VERSION 3.10)

Please give suggestions to resolve this
This is not DPDK example or pkg-config related issue, but this is related to CMAKE usage. Based on the custom CMakelist.txt the link_directories is missing /usr/local/lib/aarch64-linux-gnu. If DPDK build and installed the libraries as mentioned you will need to add the same to CMakelis.txt
In my opinion one should first try to use pkg-config if DPDK exisit. If yes, use cmake supported _CFLAGS and _LDFLAGS to solve the dependencies.
sample code
add_definitions(${DPDK_CFLAGS}
include_directories(${DPDK_INCLUDE_DIR})
link_libraries(${MYDPDK_LIBRARIES})
add_definitions(-DHAVE_DPDK)
[Edit-2] based on the compilation error information shared
For native build
CMake Error: CMake can not determine linker language for target: basicfwd
CMake Error: Cannot determine link language for target "basicfwd".

Based on the limited log cause of error you are trying a cross-build, but the CMakeLists.txt is not having the same. For cross compiling with CMAKE one should use CMAKE method and option such as cmake -DCMAKE_TOOLCHAIN_FILE=[target tool chain root folder]/toolchain.cmake ... B
