[dpdk-dev] [PATCH] log: Properly reset log_history_size in rte_log_dump_history()

[Jan Blunck]

In rte_log_dump_history() the log_history list is reinitialized without
resetting the log_history_size. In the next call to rte_log_add_in_history()
the log_history_size > RTE_LOG_HISTORY and the code unconditionally tries
to remove the first entry:

Program received signal SIGSEGV, Segmentation fault.
rte_log_add_in_history (
    buf=buf at entry=0x7f02035cd000 "DATAPLANE: 9:dp0s7 link RTM_NEWLINK 
[dp0s7] <UP,BROADCAST,RUNNING,MULTICAST,LOWER_UP>\nCAST,LOWER_UP>\n", size=size 
at entry=86)
