Subject: [dpdk-dev] [PATCH v3] VFIO: Avoid to enable vfio while the module not loaded
Date: Mon,  8 Dec 2014 16:27:35 +0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1418027255-7727-1-git-send-email-michael.qiu@intel.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1417687227-21854-1-git-send-email-michael.qiu@intel.com>

When vfio module is not loaded when kernel support vfio feature,
the routine still try to open the container to get file
description.

This action is not safe, and of cause got error messages:

EAL: Detected 40 lcore(s)
EAL:   unsupported IOMMU type!
EAL: VFIO support could not be initialized
EAL: Setting up memory...

This may make user confuse, this patch make it reasonable
and much more soomth to user.

v3 --> v2:
	1. Add error log in rte_eal_check_module()
	2. Some code clean up.

v2 --> v1:
	1. Move check_module() from rte_common.h to eal_private.h
	   and rename to rte_eal_check_module().
	   To make it linuxapp only.
	2. Some code clean up.
