Summary: VMXNET 3 returned the wrong error code in initializing
Product: DPDK
Version: unspecified
Hardware: All
OS: All
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: minor
Priority: Low
Component: ethdev

Target Milestone: ---
To call rte_eth_dev_start() to start a device, this function calls the func=
tion
pointer (dev_start) that was registered by the specific device.
rte_eth_dev_start() judges the integer returned from dev_start to continue =
or
return an error.=20
In the driver of VMXNET 3 the vmxnet3_dev_start is the function that needs =
to
be registered as dev_start, and it called vmxnet3_dev_rxtx_init().=20
In vmxnet3_dev_rxtx_init(), a wrong error code may be thrown after it invok=
es
vmxnet3_post_rx_bufs() because it negates the error code before returning i=
t*.
It causes rte_eth_dev_start() to give a positive number to the invoker, but=
it
should be a negative number, as described in the comments.
