I think it is good to use same variable name for same reason, above uses
"mac_addr" here "macaddr", please pick one.
And perhaps field comment can be removed, it is not adding any extra
information.

If config_mac_address() is not defined, req.result will be undefined.
You should give initial value to req.

Can do memset here perhaps?
Also need to update kni_check_request_register(), it only checks
change_mtu and config_network_if pointers to decide if ops registered,
since there are more ops now, that logic needs to be updated.

Can include rte_ether.h, and use ETHER_ADDR_LEN here.

Can replace "6" with ETHER_ADDR_LEN
Two things here:
1) Providing rte_kni_ops interface during creating a KNI interface links
KNI interface a backing DPDK port. And kni_ops applied on to this port.
For the case "config_mac_address", it is obvious that what we want to do
on to DPDK port. Why not provide a default implementation for this
function in librte_kni (via this patch) and set it by default.
Application still can overwrite it if it has something else to do. This
saves effort for others.
2) Can you please update sample application with this new kni_ops, again
in this patch?

I am just thinking about how to check, if user has provided the mac
address or he want the random address.
Can we make it mandatory for user to supply the mac address always?

I am doing a memset to req. so req.result will be '0'.

There are two things:
1. application changing it or initially configuring
2. Change it via Linux - use ifconfig to change it. Application need to
implement the ops to get this information, so that it can update it in
net driver.

Hi Hemant,
This RFC is waiting in patchwork for a while, is there plan to send a v1? I will
mark patchset as RFC in patchwork.
As far as I can follow latest patchset status is:
provide initial value and add capability to change
1/5: MAC address
2/5: promisc mode
3/5: MTU
There is a change request for 1/5, other two looks OK.
But for all three the action done in kni_ops, which means application needs to
implement these features.
Not sure about pushing these common tasks to application, instead of all
applications implement same thing, does it make sense to implement them in kni
library?
4/5: add gso_size info
Nak because it uses mbuf field with another meaning
5/5: Add cleanup fix for multi process
Multi process support is not supported in KNI at first place, if there is a need
first it needs to be introduced and tested.
Thanks,
ferruh

Hi Ferruh,
Thanks for looking into it. It is a just a co-incidence that I started
working on these again yesterday :)
I plan to send the updated patch along with application change in next
few days.

I don't think it is a good thing to implement them in library itself.
Libary may not know about the equivalent Ethernet port and it may be a
logical kni port also.
