[dpdk-dev] [PATCH 5/6] net/tap: let kernel choose tun device name

2019-01-11 Thread Stephen Hemminger
Assigning tun and tap index in DPDK tap device driver is racy and fails if used with primary/secondary process model. Instead, use the kernel feature of device wildcarding where if a name with %d is used the kernel will fill in the next available device. Reported-by: h...@netitest.com Fixes: 02f96
