[dpdk-dev] [PATCH] examples/exception_path: limit core count to 64

Tue Feb 20 13:05:57 CET 2018


Application doesn't support more that 64 lcores due to command
line limitation of using a coremask that is parsed as a 64bit
value, so changed it to reflect this limitation.

Fixes: af75078fece3 ("first public release")
Coverity issue: 30688
