-l and -c options are two ways to select the cores used by DPDK.
Their format differs, but the checks on the selected cores are the same.
Use an intermediate array to separate the specific parsing checks from
the common consistency checks.
The parsing functions now concentrate on validating the passed string
and do nothing more.
We can report all invalid core indexes rather than only the first error.
In the error log message, reporting [0, cfg->lcore_count - 1] as a valid
range is then wrong when the core list is not continuous.
Example on my 8 cpus laptop with core 2 and 6 disabled.
echo 0 > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu2/online
echo 0 > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu6/online
Before:
./master/app/testpmd -l 0-7 --no-huge -m 512 -- --total-num-mbufs 2048
EAL: Detected 6 lcore(s)
EAL: Detected 1 NUMA nodes
EAL: invalid core list, please check core numbers are in [0, 5] range
...
After:
./master/app/testpmd -l 0-7 --no-huge -m 512 -- --total-num-mbufs 2048
EAL: Detected 6 lcore(s)
EAL: Detected 1 NUMA nodes
EAL: lcore 2 unavailable
EAL: lcore 6 unavailable
EAL: invalid core list, please check specified cores are part of 0-1,3-5,7
...
