Subject: [PATCH] examples/symmetric_mp: log/ignore promiscuous fail
Date: Tue, 20 May 2025 11:37:04 -0700 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1747766224-31511-1-git-send-email-mamcgove@microsoft.com> (raw)
From: Matthew G McGovern <mamcgove@microsoft.com>
The example apps have a few different failure modes when enabling promiscuous mode:
- testpmd will warn about the failure and continue.
- l3fwd has a flag '-P' to explicitly require promiscuous mode.
- symmetric_mp will exit with an error code
This patch changes symmetric_mp to warn and continue.
