[dpdk-dev] [PATCH v2] Fix librte_pmd_pcap driver double stop error

[dpdk-dev] [PATCH v2] Fix librte_pmd_pcap driver double stop error

[Nicolás Pernas Maradei]

From: Nicolás Pernas Maradei <nicolas.pernas.maradei@emutex.com>

librte_pmd_pcap driver was opening the pcap/interfaces only at init time and
closing them only when the port was being stopped. This behaviour would cause
problems (leading to segfault) if the user closed the port 2 times. The first
time the pcap/interfaces would be normally closed but libpcap would throw an
error causing a segfault if the closed pcaps/interfaces were closed again.
This behaviour is solved by re-openning pcaps/interfaces when the port is
started (only if these weren't open already for example at init time).

Re: [dpdk-dev] [PATCH v2] Fix librte_pmd_pcap driver double stop error

[Nicolás Pernas Maradei]

Hi,

New in Patch v2:

- Fixes an issue in eth_dev_start/stop where a single interface was 
always opened/closed even though pcap files had been selected for rx/tx 
streams.
- The link_status was not being properly updated in case of using a 
single interface for rx/tx streams.

Nico.
