The terms blacklist and whitelist are often seen as reminders of the divisions in society. Instead, use more exact terms for handling of which devices are used in DPDK.
This is a proposed change for DPDK 20.08 to replace the names blacklist and whitelist in API and command lines. The first three patches fix some other unnecessary use of blacklist/whitelist and have no user visible impact. The rest change the PCI blacklist to be blocklist and whitelist to be allowlist. v2 - incorporate feedback for names in rte_dev.h and rte_bus.h - fix wording in comments and doc - add _Pragma to cause deprecation warning Stephen Hemminger (10): rte_ethdev: change comment to rte_dev_eth_mac_addr_add mk: replace reference to blacklist/whitelist check_maintainers: change variable names eal: replace usage of blacklist/whitelist in enum drivers: replace references to blacklist eal: replace pci-whitelist/pci-blacklist options doc: replace references to blacklist/whitelist app/test: use new allowlist and blocklist doc: add note about blacklist/whitelist changes eal: mark old macros for blacklist/whitelist as deprecated app/test/autotest.py | 16 +++--- app/test/autotest_runner.py | 18 +++---- app/test/test.c | 2 +- app/test/test_eal_flags.c | 52 +++++++++---------- devtools/check-maintainers.sh | 8 +-- doc/guides/cryptodevs/dpaa2_sec.rst | 4 +- doc/guides/cryptodevs/dpaa_sec.rst | 4 +- doc/guides/cryptodevs/qat.rst | 4 +- doc/guides/freebsd_gsg/build_sample_apps.rst | 2 +- doc/guides/linux_gsg/build_sample_apps.rst | 2 +- doc/guides/linux_gsg/eal_args.include.rst | 14 ++--- doc/guides/nics/bnxt.rst | 6 +-- doc/guides/nics/cxgbe.rst | 4 +- doc/guides/nics/dpaa.rst | 4 +- doc/guides/nics/dpaa2.rst | 4 +- doc/guides/nics/enic.rst | 6 +-- doc/guides/nics/fail_safe.rst | 14 ++--- doc/guides/nics/features.rst | 2 +- doc/guides/nics/ice.rst | 2 +- doc/guides/nics/mlx4.rst | 6 +-- doc/guides/nics/mlx5.rst | 2 +- doc/guides/nics/sfc_efx.rst | 2 +- doc/guides/nics/tap.rst | 2 +- .../prog_guide/env_abstraction_layer.rst | 7 ++- doc/guides/prog_guide/multi_proc_support.rst | 4 +- doc/guides/rel_notes/known_issues.rst | 4 +- doc/guides/rel_notes/release_20_08.rst | 5 ++ doc/guides/rel_notes/release_2_1.rst | 2 +- doc/guides/sample_app_ug/bbdev_app.rst | 6 +-- doc/guides/sample_app_ug/ipsec_secgw.rst | 4 +- doc/guides/sample_app_ug/l3_forward.rst | 2 +- .../sample_app_ug/l3_forward_access_ctrl.rst | 2 +- drivers/bus/dpaa/dpaa_bus.c | 7 ++- drivers/bus/fslmc/fslmc_bus.c | 9 ++-- drivers/bus/fslmc/fslmc_vfio.c | 8 +-- drivers/bus/pci/pci_common.c | 21 ++++---- drivers/bus/vmbus/vmbus_common.c | 4 +- drivers/crypto/virtio/virtio_pci.c | 2 +- drivers/net/fm10k/fm10k_ethdev.c | 2 +- drivers/net/virtio/virtio_pci.c | 2 +- lib/librte_eal/common/eal_common_devargs.c | 14 ++--- lib/librte_eal/common/eal_common_options.c | 29 ++++++----- lib/librte_eal/common/eal_options.h | 8 +-- lib/librte_eal/include/rte_bus.h | 12 ++++- lib/librte_eal/include/rte_dev.h | 12 ++++- lib/librte_eal/include/rte_devargs.h | 12 ++++- lib/librte_ethdev/rte_ethdev.h | 3 +- mk/rte.sdktest.mk | 14 ++--- 48 files changed, 201 insertions(+), 174 deletions(-) -- 2.26.2
