Subject: [dpdk-dev] [PATCH 3/3] eal: fix multi-process probe failure handling
Date: Sat,  2 Mar 2019 03:42:53 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20190302024253.15594-4-thomas@monjalon.net> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20190302024253.15594-1-thomas@monjalon.net>

If probe fails in multi-process context, the device must removed
in other processes for consistency. This is a rollback mechanism.
However the rollback should not happen for devices which were
already probed before the current probe transaction.

When probing an already probed device, the driver may reject
with -EEXIST or update and succeed with code 0.
In order to distinguish successful new probe from re-probe,
in the function local_dev_probe(), the positive EEXIST code
is returned for the latter case.

The functions rte_dev_probe() and __handle_secondary_request()
can test for -EEXIST and +EEXIST, and skip rollback in such case.

Fixes: 244d5130719c ("eal: enable hotplug on multi-process")
Fixes: ac9e4a17370f ("eal: support attach/detach shared device from secondary")
