Subject: [PATCH 4/4] test/devargs: add tests for missing device arguments
Date: Mon,  5 Oct 2026 09:53:50 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20261005165512.334085-5-stephen@networkplumber.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20261005165512.334085-1-stephen@networkplumber.org>

There was no coverage for a device string with no driver arguments,
which is how Bugzilla 2049 went unnoticed: global device syntax with
no driver layer left args NULL and drivers crashed passing it to
rte_kvargs_parse().

Add a devargs case asserting args is non-NULL and empty for global
syntax without a driver layer, and that it parses as kvargs the way a
driver would use it.  Add a kvargs case for rte_kvargs_parse(NULL),
which must give an empty list.
