You should fix the drivers instead. agree with you that would no have sync guarantee, maybe we could add the sigaction or other sync condition in drivers to handle the signal bus error when unsafe memory control occur. but i think it is the sync problem , would not affect the remap_device functional, and would not affect to use a common bus layer memory control to let caller to use to remap to "safe". am i right? also i want to collect info that it there any other conversion about that remap_device api? > Thanks, > Jan > >> a.The uevent message form FD monitoring which will be useful. >> remove@/devices/pci0000:80/0000:80:02.2/0000:82:00.0/0000:83:03.0/0000:84:00.2/uio/uio2 >> ACTION=remove >> DEVPATH=/devices/pci0000:80/0000:80:02.2/0000:82:00.0/0000:83:03.0/0000:84:00.2/uio/uio2 >> SUBSYSTEM=uio >> MAJOR=243 >> MINOR=2 >> DEVNAME=uio2 >> SEQNUM=11366 >> >> b.add uevent monitoring machanism: >> add several general api to enable uevent monitoring. >> >> c.add common uevent handler and uevent failure handler >> uevent of device should be handler at bus or device layer, and the memory read >> and write failure when hot removal should be handle correctly before detach behaviors. >> >> d.show example how to use uevent monitor >> enable uevent monitoring in testpmd or fail-safe to show usage. >> >> patchset history: >> v5->v4: >> 1.Move uevent monitor epolling from eal interrupt to eal device layer. >> 2.Redefine the eal device API for common, and distinguish between linux and bsd >> 3.Add failure handler helper api in bus layer.Add function of find device by name. >> 4.Replace of individual fd bind with single device, use a common fd to polling all device. >> 5.Add to register hot insertion monitoring and process, add function to auto bind driver befor user add device >> 6.Refine some coding style and typos issue >> 7.add new callback to process hot insertion >> >> v4->v3: >> 1.move uevent monitor api from eal interrupt to eal device layer. >> 2.create uevent type and struct in eal device. >> 3.move uevent handler for each driver to eal layer. >> 4.add uevent failure handler to process signal fault issue. >> 5.add example for request and use uevent monitoring in testpmd. >> >> v3->v2: >> 1.refine some return error >> 2.refine the string searching logic to avoid memory issue >> >> v2->v1: >> 1.remove global variables of hotplug_fd, add uevent_fd >> in rte_intr_handle to let each pci device self maintain it fd, >> to fix dual device fd issue. >> 2.refine some typo error. >> >> >> Jeff Guo (2): >> eal: add uevent monitor for hot plug >> app/testpmd: use uevent to monitor hot removal >> >> app/test-pmd/testpmd.c | 90 ++++++ >> lib/librte_eal/bsdapp/eal/eal_dev.c | 64 ++++ >> .../bsdapp/eal/include/exec-env/rte_dev.h | 105 ++++++ >> lib/librte_eal/common/eal_common_bus.c | 31 ++ >> lib/librte_eal/common/eal_common_dev.c | 223 ++++++++++++- >> lib/librte_eal/common/eal_common_pci.c | 69 +++- >> lib/librte_eal/common/eal_common_pci_uio.c | 31 +- >> lib/librte_eal/common/eal_common_vdev.c | 29 +- >> lib/librte_eal/common/eal_private.h | 13 +- >> lib/librte_eal/common/include/rte_bus.h | 52 +++ >> lib/librte_eal/common/include/rte_dev.h | 102 +++++- >> lib/librte_eal/common/include/rte_pci.h | 26 ++ >> lib/librte_eal/linuxapp/eal/Makefile | 3 +- >> lib/librte_eal/linuxapp/eal/eal_dev.c | 351 +++++++++++++++++++++ >> lib/librte_eal/linuxapp/eal/eal_pci.c | 33 ++ >> .../linuxapp/eal/include/exec-env/rte_dev.h | 105 ++++++ >> 16 files changed, 1318 insertions(+), 9 deletions(-) >> create mode 100644 lib/librte_eal/bsdapp/eal/eal_dev.c >> create mode 100644 lib/librte_eal/bsdapp/eal/include/exec-env/rte_dev.h >> create mode 100644 lib/librte_eal/linuxapp/eal/eal_dev.c >> create mode 100644 lib/librte_eal/linuxapp/eal/include/exec-env/rte_dev.h >> >> -- >> 2.7.4 >>
