Subject: [PATCH] net/netvsc: cache device parameters for hot plug events
Date: Mon, 25 Aug 2025 18:15:59 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1756170959-19822-1-git-send-email-longli@linuxonhyperv.com> (raw)

From: Long Li <longli@microsoft.com>

If a device is hot removed and hot plugged, it needs the same driver
parameters that are passed to EAL. However, during device removal, all
EAL driver parameters are freed as part of the cleanup.

Cache those driver parameters for future hot plug events. Because we don't
know which device will show up, cache all the PCI driver parameters.
