Hi,

FYI, your patch has been queued to LTS release 18.11.2

Note it hasn't been pushed to http://dpdk.org/browse/dpdk-stable yet.
It will be pushed if I get no objections before 04/16/19. So please
shout if anyone has objections.

Also note that after the patch there's a diff of the upstream commit vs the
patch applied to the branch. This will indicate if there was any rebasing
needed to apply to the stable branch. If there were code changes for rebasing
(ie: not only metadata diffs), please double check that the rebase was
correctly done.

Thanks.

Kevin Traynor

Subject: [PATCH] eal: fix core list validation with disabled cores

[ upstream commit 1598c729595d8d59ebb9dce190401846da16c09c ]

-l and -c options are two ways to select the cores used by DPDK.
Their format differs, but the checks on the selected cores are the same.
Use an intermediate array to separate the specific parsing checks from
the common consistency checks.
The parsing functions now concentrate on validating the passed string
and do nothing more.

We can report all invalid core indexes rather than only the first error.
In the error log message, reporting [0, cfg->lcore_count - 1] as a valid
range is then wrong when the core list is not continuous.

Example on my 8 cpus laptop with core 2 and 6 disabled.
echo 0 > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu2/online
echo 0 > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu6/online

Before:
./master/app/testpmd -l 0-7 --no-huge -m 512 -- --total-num-mbufs 2048
EAL: Detected 6 lcore(s)
EAL: Detected 1 NUMA nodes
EAL: invalid core list, please check core numbers are in [0, 5] range
...

After:
./master/app/testpmd -l 0-7 --no-huge -m 512 -- --total-num-mbufs 2048
EAL: Detected 6 lcore(s)
EAL: Detected 1 NUMA nodes
EAL: lcore 2 unavailable
EAL: lcore 6 unavailable
EAL: invalid core list, please check specified cores are part of 0-1,3-5,7
...

Fixes: d888cb8b9613 ("eal: add core list input format")
Fixes: b38693b612b4 ("eal: fix core number validation")
