Subject: [dpdk-dev] [PATCH v8 0/2] eal: add function to check primary alive
Date: Wed,  9 Mar 2016 10:12:40 +0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1457518362-32762-1-git-send-email-harry.van.haaren@intel.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1457456825-28667-1-git-send-email-harry.van.haaren@intel.com>


The first patch of this patchset contains a fix for EAL PCI probing,
to avoid a race-condition where a primary and secondary probe PCI
devices at the same time.

The second patch adds a function that can be polled by a process to
detect if a DPDK primary process is alive. This function does not
rely on rte_eal_init(), as this uses the EAL and thus stops a
primary from starting.

The functionality provided by this patch is very useful for providing
additional services to DPDK primary applications such as monitoring
statistics and performing fault detection.

v8:
- include implementation of function (got lost in v7)

v7:
- split patch into two, one for eal fix, one for adding functionality

v6:
- Fix license header

v5:
- Renamed returns in doc from words to digits
- Fixed line spacing in docs
- Fixed line spacing in EAL header
- Rebased to master (Makefile conflicts)

v4:
- Rebased to git head (2.3 -> 16.04 changes)

v3:
- Fixed Copyright years

v2:
- Passing NULL as const char* uses default /var/run/.rte_config
- Moved co
