Subject: [RFC] test/eal_flags: suppress vdev_netvsc auto-probe
Date: Sun, 22 Feb 2026 14:15:42 -0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260222221542.804546-1-stephen@networkplumber.org> (raw)

On Hyper-V systems (including Azure-hosted CI), the vdev_netvsc
driver auto-injects itself during vdev bus scan. This interferes
with the vdev flag test causing the nodeaction subprocess to fail.

Suppress by passing net_vdev_netvsc,ignore=1 in the valid vdev
test cases. The scan callback sees it already in devargs and
skips injection; the probe honours ignore and does nothing.

Fixes: 0d684a783088 ("app/test: fix and separate --vdev unit test")
Cc: stable@dpdk.org
