Subject: [dpdk-stable] [PATCH v2] app/testpmd: report invalid command line parameter
Date: Mon, 18 Nov 2019 16:37:14 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20191118153714.17610-1-david.marchand@redhat.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20191117171013.17373-1-david.marchand@redhat.com>

We currently do not check that a non option string has been passed to
testpmd.

Example:
$ ./master/app/testpmd --no-huge -m 512 --vdev net_null0 \
	--vdev net_null1 -- -i nb-cores=2 --total-num-mbuf 2048
[...]
testpmd> show config fwd
io packet forwarding - ports=2 - cores=1 - streams=2 - NUMA support
enabled, MP allocation mode: native
Logical Core 1 (socket 0) forwards packets on 2 streams:
  RX P=0/Q=0 (socket 0) -> TX P=1/Q=0 (socket 0) peer=02:00:00:00:00:01
  RX P=1/Q=0 (socket 0) -> TX P=0/Q=0 (socket 0) peer=02:00:00:00:00:00

Here nb-cores=2 is just ignored, while the (probably sleepy) user did not
notice this.

Validate that all strings passed to testpmd are part of a known option.

After this patch:
$ ./master/app/testpmd --no-huge -m 512 --vdev net_null0 \
	--vdev net_null1 -- -i nb-cores=2 --total-num-mbuf 2048
[...]
Invalid parameter: nb-cores=2
EAL: Error - exiting with code: 1
  Cause: Command line incorrect

While at it, when passing an unknown option, print the string that gets
refused by getopt_long to help the user.

Fixes: af75078fece3 ("first public release")

This seems a bit dangerous to take this kind of change this late.
Some "working fine" scripts might now report failures from testpmd because
of garbage in the command line.

Sending the patch anyway to see what others think about it.
