[PATCH] eal/common: fix inconsistent representation of PCI numbers

[Shani Peretz]

DPDK allows for two ways to specify PCI device numbers:
a full version ("0000:08:00.0") and a short version ("08:00.0").
The problem arises when the application uses one format (e.g., full)
when running testpmd, but then tries to use the other format (e.g., short)
in a subsequent command, leading to a failure.

The cmp_dev_name func, which is responsible for comparing PCI device names,
is not handling the inconsistent PCI number representations correctly.
The suggested fix is to use the pci_parse function, which can parse
the PCI device name and fill a struct rte_pci_addr with the standardized
representation of the PCI number.
By comparing the struct rte_pci_addr instances instead of the string
representations, the application can ensure consistent handling of
PCI device numbers, regardless of the format used.

Blank line between functions please

This should just be a rte_pci_addr type, not char.
And don't need to initialize it.

If it was the correct type, cast would not be needed.

Use existing rte_pci_addr_cmp()

[PATCH v3] eal/common: fix inconsistent representation of PCI numbers

[Shani Peretz]

DPDK allows for two ways to specify PCI device numbers:
a full version ("0000:08:00.0") and a short version ("08:00.0").
The problem arises when the application uses one format (e.g., full)
when running testpmd, but then tries to use the other format (e.g., short)
in a subsequent command, leading to a failure.

The cmp_dev_name func, which is responsible for comparing PCI device names,
is not handling the inconsistent PCI number representations correctly.
The suggested fix is to use the pci_parse function, which can parse
the PCI device name and fill a struct rte_pci_addr with the standardized
representation of the PCI number.
By comparing the struct rte_pci_addr instances instead of the string
representations, the application can ensure consistent handling of
PCI device numbers, regardless of the format used.

I find it strange that Thomas acked this patch (for example, the
commit title prefix is wrong).

I don't understand the issue.
Please provide a reproducer.
And ideally we need a unit test to track regressions on this topic.


Thanks.

Indeed, Shani we shouldn't add "Acked-by" until all is reviewed in detail.

Why is this not rte_internal instead of experimental?
Why is the name arguement void * instead of char *?

And there are other questions in the mail thread.
That is why it has not gotten accepted.
