Bug ID: 257
Summary: ipc: rte_mp_request_sync return 0 on error.
Product: DPDK
Version: 18.11
Hardware: All
OS: All
Status: CONFIRMED
Severity: normal
Priority: Normal
Component: core
Assignee: dev@dpdk.org
Reporter: herakliusz.lip...@intel.com
Target Milestone: ---
API can return success (0), but reply buffer might be invalid.
There are three code paths that can return a success, but have no (valid)
message.
In case of two I think it should be a failure.
In rte_mp_request_sync there is a call to mp_request_sync which may return 0
with no message in case of:
- failure to send the message on behalf of remote
- the caller not caring about reply message. (this is probably fine)
This is then returned as 0 by rte_mp_request_sync (docs say that it will return
0 on success).
If IPC is disabled rte_mp_request_sync also return 0, but i think it should be
a failure (it did not send anything, it did not received anything because
operation is not supported).
