Bug ID: 19 Summary: Crash on initialization if first RTE_MAX_LCORE cores are disabled Product: DPDK Version: unspecified Hardware: All OS: All Status: CONFIRMED Severity: minor Priority: Normal Component: core Assignee: dev@dpdk.org Reporter: solal.pire...@gmail.com Target Milestone: --- In eal_common_options.c, the master lcore is found by looking for the first enabled lcore (http://dpdk.org/browse/dpdk/tree/lib/librte_eal/common/eal_common_options.c?h=v18.02#n1213). However, there is no check for the case where no enabled lcore is found. In the (unlikely!) case of all first RTE_MAX_LCORE cores being disabled, the next instruction will cause an out-of-bounds array access, probably crashing the app. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.
