Subject: [dpdk-dev] KNI portmask bugs
Date: Fri, 20 Dec 2019 13:48:31 -0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20191220134831.48f97ddf@hermes.lan> (raw)

KNI example has a couple of bugs that can cause surprises if using
failsafe (or bonding). The portmask argument to kni does not check
that device is not a sub device (already owned) and allows any device.

While your at it, the portmask for kni is only 32 bits which is not
big enough on some systems.
