So the compiler probably thinks that rte_flow_error_set may return 0. rte_flow_error_set is outside of compiler "view" at the moment it compiles enic_fm_flow.c, so the compiler making the assumption this function can return 0 is being prudent from my pov.Fixes: 7968917ccf64 ("net/enic: support meta flow actions to overrule destinations") Reported-by: David Marchand <david.march...@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Ferruh Yigit <ferruh.yi...@intel.com>Your fix looks good in any case.

Applied to dpdk-next-net/main, thanks.
