Subject: [PATCH v4 11/17] pesto: Expose list of pifs to pesto and optionally display
Date: Tue, 21 Apr 2026 14:42:11 +1000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260421044217.2500314-12-david@gibson.dropbear.id.au> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260421044217.2500314-1-david@gibson.dropbear.id.au>
Extend the dynamic update protocol to expose the pif indices and names
from a running passt/pasta to the pesto tool. pesto records that data
and, if requested with a new --show flag, prints it out.
Signed-off-by: David Gibson <david@gibson.dropbear.id.au>
