Hello, I found that the following commit and post are conflicting with each other: 1) http://dpdk.org/browse/dpdk/commit/?id=23f91f32f2b119f1376488d87be2b80b078a945e 2) http://dpdk.org/ml/archives/dev/2015-April/016361.html Is there a consensus on how verbose PMD init processes should be? (i.e., Is this an intended behavior or a bug?) I'd like to see if my ports are initialized, but not what memory addresses they are attached for each ring. (Most of PMD init logs are only useful when debugging!) My configuration (.config) says CONFIG_RTE_LIBRTE_IXGBE_DEBUG_INIT=n and my program explicitly set the debug level to INFO by calling rte_set_log_level(), but *still* the ixgbe pmd generates a lot of PMD_INIT_LOG(DEBUG, ...) messages. For workaround, I'm currently roll-backing the commit 23f91f3 manually for my build and then it becomes silent. Thanks, Joongi

Yes, debug logs should use the debug level. Simple :) > I'd like to see if my ports are initialized, but not what memory addresses > they are attached for each ring.

I guess you are not using the HEAD. This commit should solve your problem: http://dpdk.org/browse/dpdk/commit/?id=23e4bf20a16d34 > For workaround, I'm currently roll-backing the commit 23f91f3 manually for > my build and then it becomes silent. Please confirm it's fixed in HEAD.
Thanks for quick reply.
I have been using the v2.0.0 release branch, and switching to the master
eliminates the issue.
