Bleep bloop. Greetings Rosemarie O'Riorden, I am a robot and I have tried out your patch. Thanks for your contribution. I encountered some error that I wasn't expecting. See the details below. checkpatch: WARNING: Line has trailing whitespace #201 FILE: vswitchd/vswitch.xml:367: DPDK defaults will be used instead. If dpdk-socket-mem and WARNING: Line is 81 characters long (recommended limit is 79) #202 FILE: vswitchd/vswitch.xml:368: dpdk-alloc-mem are specified at same time, dpdk-socket-mem will be used Lines checked: 220, Warnings: 2, Errors: 0 Please check this out. If you feel there has been an error, please email aconole@redhat.com Thanks, 0-day Robot

This change removes the default values for EAL args socket-mem and socket-limit. As DPDK supports dynamic memory allocation, there is no need to allocate a certain amount of memory on start-up, nor limit the amount of memory available, if not requested. Currently, socket-mem has a default value of 1024 when it is not configured by the user, and socket-limit takes on the value of socket-mem, 1024, by default. With this change, socket-mem is not configured by default, meaning that socket-limit is not either. Neither, either or both options can be set. Removed extra logs added in patch 1 that announce this change. Reported at: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1949850 Signed-off-by: Rosemarie O'Riorden <roriorde@redhat.com> --- Removes logs added in patch 1 that were not in v1. Removes code added to lib/dpdk.c since v1 that conflicts with this patch series.
