Hello,
Commit 9a9eb104ed ("ethdev: parse multiple representor devargs") removes
the following variable initialization in rte_eth_devargs_parse():
memset(eth_da, 0, sizeof(*eth_da));
This in turn causes a failure in ixgbe PCI probe on Arm server:
eth_ixgbe_pci_probe(): unsupported representor type:
Indeed, nb_representor_ports was supposed to be correctly defined when
calling rte_eth_devargs_parse().
The question is:
why was "memset(eth_da, 0, sizeof(*eth_da));" removed ?
This is not explained in the commit log.
Best regards
Thierry
