    pktgen: Fix device name compares · 593f63b0
    Eric Dumazet 提交于
    Commit e6fce5b9 (pktgen: multiqueue etc.) tried to relax
    the pktgen restriction of one device per kernel thread, adding a '@'
    tag to device names.
    
    Problem is we dont perform check on full pktgen device name.
    This allows adding many time same 'device' to pktgen thread
    
     pgset "add_device eth0@0"
    
    one session later :
    
     pgset "add_device eth0@0"
    
    (This doesnt find previous device)
    
    This consumes ~1.5 MBytes of vmalloc memory per round and also triggers
    this warning :

    Solution to this problem is to use a odevname field (includes @ tag and suffix),
    instead of using netdevice name.
