In the CLI parsing, below is a common pattern:
/* Get a line of input. */
if (!unformat_user (input, unformat_line_input, line_input))
return 0;
while (unformat_check_input (line_input) != UNFORMAT_END_OF_INPUT)
{
if (unformat (line_input, "x"))
x = 1;
:
else
return clib_error_return (0, "unknown input `%U'",
format_unformat_error, line_input);
}
unformat_free (line_input);
The 'else' returns if an unknown string is encountered. There a memory
leak because the 'unformat_free(line_input)' is not called. There is a
large number of instances of this pattern.
Replaced the previous pattern with:
/* Get a line of input. */
if (!unformat_user (input, unformat_line_input, line_input))
return 0;
while (unformat_check_input (line_input) != UNFORMAT_END_OF_INPUT)
{
if (unformat (line_input, "x"))
x = 1;
:
else
{
error = clib_error_return (0, "unknown input `%U'",
format_unformat_error, line_input);
goto done:
}
}
/* ...Remaining code... */
done:
unformat_free (line_input);
return error;
}
In multiple files, 'unformat_free (line_input);' was never called, so
there was a memory leak whether an invalid string was entered or not.
Also, there were multiple instance where:
error = clib_error_return (0, "unknown input `%U'",
format_unformat_error, line_input);
used 'input' as the last parameter instead of 'line_input'. The result
is that output did not contain the substring in error, instead just an
empty string. Fixed all of those as well.
There are a lot of file, and very mind numbing work, so tried to keep
it to a pattern to avoid mistakes.

This patch replaces requirement for vlib_plugin_register function
in the plugin so file and introduces new macro:
VLIB_PLUGIN_REGISTER () = {
.version = "version string",
.version_required = "requred version",
.default_disabled = 1,
.early_init = "early_init_function_name",
};
Plugin will nor be loaded if .default_disabled is set to 1
unless explicitely enabled in startup.conf.
If .verstion_required is set, plugin will not be loaded if there
is version mismatch between plugin and vpp. This can be bypassed
by setting "skip-version-check" for specific plugin.
If .early-init string is present, plugin loader will try to resolve
this specific symbol in the plugin namespace and make a function call.
Following startup.conf configuration is added:
plugins {
path /path/to/plugin/directory
plugin ila_plugin.so { enable skip-version-check }
plugin acl_plugin.so { disable }
}
