[dpdk-dev] [PATCH] eal: turn off getopt_long error messages

[Keith Wiles]

When using dpdk register option api when parsing for log level
the opterr flags was still set to one causing an error message
from getopt_long(). Set opterr to zero to disable error messages.

Please could you be more specific?
Which function call? Which error message?

We need also Fixes: and stable tags for backport.
Thanks

Keith, it seems you missed my questions below:

[PATCH v2] eal: turn off getopt_long error message during eal_log_level

[Stephen Hemminger]

If DPDK application is given a bogus option, the error message
would get printed twice. Once during scan for log level and
again during parsing of arguments.

Example:
	# ./build/app/dpdk-testpmd --bogus
	./build/app/dpdk-testpmd: unrecognized option '--bogus'
	EAL: Detected CPU lcores: 16
	EAL: Detected NUMA nodes: 1
	./build/app/dpdk-testpmd: unrecognized option '--bogus'

	Usage: ./build/app/dpdk-testpmd [options]

Fix by supressing printing error message on first pass.
