X-BeenThere: dev@dpdk.org X-Mailman-Version: 2.1.15 Precedence: list List-Id: patches and discussions about DPDK List-Unsubscribe: , List-Archive: List-Post: List-Help: List-Subscribe: , X-List-Received-Date: Wed, 13 May 2015 08:47:41 -0000 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
