> With this patch, all logs that use logtype "USERX" (e.g.  RTE_LOGTYPE_USER1) are not shown anymore.
> Should these macro be removed?

> Right now, all applications using this won't show these, so I assume that all of them
> should be fixed before the release is out.
> Is that correct?

Is it a bug in the commit http://dpdk.org/commit/c1b5fa9 ?
