Subject: [PATCH v2 1/3] app/testpmd: explicitly set command echoing on file load
Date: Fri, 4 Jul 2025 19:34:34 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20250704183437.25901-2-bruce.richardson@intel.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20250704183437.25901-1-bruce.richardson@intel.com>
The echoing of commands contained in a file loaded via the "load"
command on testpmd CLI is governed by whether or not a cmdline-file or
cmdline-file-noecho had been passed to testpmd on the commandline.
Remove the use of a global setting for this, and explicitly add a
"load_echo" command to match the "load" command.
