Should we try to deprecate it to ease some of Damjans guilt? :) Chris

The vHost examples on the Wiki used the feature-mask of 0xFF. I think that is how it got propagated. In 16.09 when I did the CLI documentation for the vHost, I expanded what the bits meant and used feature-mask 0x40400000 as the example. I will gladly add an additional comment indicating that the recommended use is to leave blank if this was intended to be debug. https://docs.fd.io/vpp/17.07/clicmd_src_vnet_devices_virtio.html Billy On Thu, Apr 20, 2017 at 4:17 PM, Damjan Marion (damarion) <damar...@cisco.com<mailto:damar...@cisco.com>> wrote: Eric, long time ago ( i think 3+ years) when I wrote original vhost-user driver in vpp, I added feature-mask knob to cli which messes up with feature bitmap purely for debugging reasons. And I regret many times… Somebody dig it out and documented it somewhere, for to me unknown reasons. Now it spreads like a virus and I cannot stop it :) So please don’t use it, it is evil….
