My apologies for the rebase and force push: it was mandatory to fix the corruption of master resulting from the GitHub instabilities.

The only functional test failure snapshot_aggregation.py is not related to this PR. It is an ENOMEN issue with pool creation:

Thus, I have added label forced-landing

@daos-stack/daos-gatekeeper please could you lend this PR.

The test failure does appear unrelated, but I do not see an existing ticket, nor has it failed in the past week of daily regression runs. Are we sure this PR isn't somehow affecting it?

I am pretty sure it is unrelated as this PR should only change the C shared library linking of ddb. However, I had some surprise in the past and thus I am going to restart the hardware test Jenkins step and look more in depth of the logs. If needed, I will create a JIRA ticket.

As expected, the functional test passed the second time (i.e. build 8).
My first investigation on the log of the build 7 shows that the issue is occurring in the engine code which is not impacted by this PR.

Thus this PR can be landed safely from my understanding.

Before landing this PR, could you wait that I have finished my investigation and create a ticket.
Thanks in advance.
