Looks like RTE_ETH_VALID_PORTID_OR_ERR_RET(..) is being called ~135 times.
Most calls are with retval set to either -ENODEV or -EINVAL. A few
instances of 0 and -1, but not many.
Looks like RTE_FUNC_PTR_OR_ERR_RET(..) is being called ~100 times. Most
calls are with retval set to -ENOTSUP. A few instances of 0, but not many.
I was thinking:
/* Macros to check for valid port */
#define RTE_ETH_VALID_PORTID_OR_ERR_RET(port_id, retval) do { \
if (!rte_eth_dev_is_valid_port(port_id)) { \
RTE_PMD_DEBUG_TRACE("Invalid port_id=%d\n", port_id); \
+ if (retval < 0) \
+ rte_errno = -retval; \
return retval; \
} \
} while (0)
Thanks,
Billy
