Due the new API functions, simplification of load() function was made. One new unit test to TEST app was added. It contains an example of a large INI file whose parsing requires multiple reallocation of memory. --- v3: split one patchset into two distinct patchsets: 1. cfgfile library and TEST app changes 2. EAL changes and examples (this patchset depends on cfgfile) v2: lib eal: Rework of rte_eal_configure(struct rte_cfgfile *cfg, char *prgname). Now this function load data from cfg structure and did initial initialization of EAL arguments. Vdev argument are stored in different subsections eg. DPDK.vdev0, DPDK.vdev1 etc. After execution of this function it is necessary to call rte_eal_init to complete EAL initialization. There is no more merging arguments from different sources (cfg file and command line). Added non_eal_configure to testpmd application. Function maintain the same functionality as rte_eal_configure but for non-eal arguments. Added config JSON feature to testpmd last patch from patchset contain example showing use of .json configuration files. lib cfgfile: Rework of add_section(), add_entry() new implementation New members allocated_entries/sections, free_entries/sections in rte_cfgfile structure, change in array of pointers **sections, **entries instead of *sections[], *entries[] Add set_entry() to update/overwrite already existing entry in cfgfile struct Add save() function to save on disc cfgfile structure in INI format Rework of existing load() function simplifying the code Add unit test realloc_sections() in TEST app for testing realloc/malloc of new API functions, add test for save() function Jacek Piasecki (3): cfgfile: remove EAL dependency cfgfile: add new functions to API test/cfgfile: add new unit test Kuba Kozak (1): cfgfile: rework of load function lib/librte_cfgfile/Makefile | 1 + lib/librte_cfgfile/rte_cfgfile.c | 397 +++++++++++++++-------- lib/librte_cfgfile/rte_cfgfile.h | 76 +++++ lib/librte_cfgfile/rte_cfgfile_version.map | 11 + test/test/test_cfgfile.c | 40 +++ test/test/test_cfgfiles/etc/realloc_sections.ini | 128 ++++++++ 6 files changed, 514 insertions(+), 139 deletions(-) create mode 100644 test/test/test_cfgfiles/etc/realloc_sections.ini -- 2.7.4
