Instead of changing the existing hotplug functions, as in the RFC, some new experimental functions are added. The old functions lose their experimental status in order to provide a non-experimental replacement for deprecated attach/detach functions. It has been discussed briefly in the latest technical board meeting. Changes in v4 - after Andrew's review: - add API changes in release notes (patches 1 & 2) - fix memory leak in rte_eal_hotplug_add (patch 4) Change in v3: - fix null dereferencing in error path (patch 2) Thomas Monjalon (4): devargs: remove deprecated functions devargs: simplify parameters of removal function eal: remove experimental flag of hotplug functions eal: simplify parameters of hotplug functions doc/guides/rel_notes/release_18_11.rst | 8 ++ drivers/bus/ifpga/ifpga_bus.c | 5 +- drivers/bus/vdev/vdev.c | 8 +- drivers/net/failsafe/failsafe_eal.c | 3 +- drivers/net/failsafe/failsafe_ether.c | 3 +- lib/librte_eal/common/eal_common_dev.c | 89 +++++++++++++-------- lib/librte_eal/common/eal_common_devargs.c | 41 ++-------- lib/librte_eal/common/include/rte_dev.h | 35 ++++++-- lib/librte_eal/common/include/rte_devargs.h | 81 +------------------ lib/librte_eal/rte_eal_version.map | 10 +-- 10 files changed, 111 insertions(+), 172 deletions(-) -- 2.19.0
