[dpdk-dev] [PATCH v3 00/20] cleanup logs in main PMDs

[Thomas Monjalon]

> Here is a patchset that reworks the log macro in e1000, ixgbe and i40e PMDs.
> The idea behind this is to make it easier to debug some init failures and to be
> sure of the datapath selected in these PMDs (rx / tx handlers selection).
> 
> The PMDs changes involve adding more debug messages in the default build.
> A new eal option has been added to set the default log level, so that you can
> render the eal a little less noisy.
> 
> I did not change the default log level for now, as some eal log messages are
> marked as DEBUG while being interesting (from my point of view).
> I suppose we can change the default log level later once the eal has been
> cleaned up.
> 
> Changes since v2:
> - just a respin with Jay comments in mind
> * don't introduce \n in one commit then remove them
> * indent only the impacted parts before removing \n (so split previous patches)
> * remove some "" garbage
> 
> Changes since v1:
> - continue clean up by always using PMD_*_LOG when logging something in
>   PMD (i.e. no more printf, RTE_LOG, DEBUGOUT)
> - introduce PMD_DRV_LOG_RAW macro for use by shared driver code
> - adopt 'second approach': no more \n in PMD_*_LOG callers. This means that we
>   will enforce a 'no \n' policy in logs for PMD.

Applied for version 1.8.0.
