[PATCH 0/5] eal: check socket memory

[Pablo de Lara]

Several drivers, libraries and apps check if a socket
has reserved memory, by implementing their own function, 
which returns the total number of sockets that have memory.

First of all, this function is not completely correct,
as it really returns the highest socket id that has memory.
So, if all the sockets up to that one has memory, then it
really returns the total number of sockets with memory,
but it there is at least one in the middle without memory,
then total number of sockets should be less than the value returned.

Besides, this function is not really useful, as the main goal is
to check if memory on a specific socket is available,
rather than checking if a socket id is beyond the total
number of sockets.

Therefore, it looks more useful to have a function in EAL
that returns if a socket has memory reserved, which
can be used in these files.

[PATCH 1/5] eal: check if socket has memory reserved

[Pablo de Lara]

Several drivers and apps check if a socket has reserved memory,
by implementing their own function, which returns the
total number of sockets that have memory.
This function is not really useful, as the main goal is
to check if memory on a specific socket is available,
rather than checking if a socket id is beyond the total
number of sockets (there could be a socket in the middle
with no memory).

Therefore, it looks more useful to have a function in EAL
that can be used in these files.

[PATCH 2/5] cryptodev: check if socket id has memory

[Pablo de Lara]

Use new function to check if socket id has reserved memory,
instead of implementing a local function that checks
total number of sockets, to verify if selected socket id
is beyond the range of sockets.

[PATCH v2 0/4] Socket ID check removal

[Pablo de Lara]

Several libraries, drivers and tests check if a socket
is within the range of available sockets, by
implementig their own function, which returns the total 
number of sockets that have memory.

First of all, this function is not completely correct,
as it really returns the highest socket id that has memory.
So, if all the sockets up to that one has memory, then it
really returns the total number of sockets with memory,
but if there is at least one in the middle without memory,
then total number of sockets should be less than the value returned.

Besides, this function is not really useful, as the main goal is
to check if memory on a specific socket is available, rather than
checking if a socket id is beyond the total number of sockets.

Therefore, it is better to remove the check and let the memory
allocation function handle an incorrect socket.

Changes in v2:

- Removed new EAL function and just removed the socket id check,
  instead of creating a new function.

[PATCH v2 1/4] cryptodev: remove socket id check

[Pablo de Lara]

Socket id parsed from the user was checked

This check is unnecessary, as the socket specified

at memory allocation.

Therefore, the best solution is to remove this check.

[PATCH v2 4/4] test/bonding: remove socket id check

[Pablo de Lara]

When creating a virtual pmd to test link bonding,
the socket id was checked, if it was in the range
of available sockets.
This check is unnecessary, as the socket specified
might not have memory anyway, so it will fail
at memory allocation.

Therefore, the best solution is to remove this check.

Looking at this again, probably having this check is not necessary,
as this will be checked when attempting to allocate the memory.
Will send a v2, to remove the check completely.
