Warning continuously is a pain when developping or if a unit test
is/gets broken.
It could also be a problem if application behaves badly only in some
corner cases and a DoS results of those logs being continuously displayed.
Let's warn once per port and per rx/tx.
Getting such a log is scary, but let's make it more eye catching by
dumping a backtrace with it.
Tested by introducing a bug in testpmd:
static int
eth_dev_start_mp(uint16_t port_id)
{
- if (is_proc_primary())
+ if (!is_proc_primary())
return rte_eth_dev_start(port_id);
return 0;
Then, running a basic null test:
$ ./devtools/test-null.sh
...
Start automatic packet forwarding
io packet forwarding - ports=2 - cores=1 - streams=2 - NUMA support
enabled, MP allocation mode: native
Logical Core 1 (socket 0) forwards packets on 2 streams:
RX P=0/Q=0 (socket 0) -> TX P=1/Q=0 (socket 0) peer=02:00:00:00:00:01
RX P=1/Q=0 (socket 0) -> TX P=0/Q=0 (socket 0) peer=02:00:00:00:00:00
lcore 0 called rx_pkt_burst for not ready port 0
