I missed this email. Thanks for your review. > Why 'rte_eth_dev_info_get()' is called in the event called at first place? There is no limitation on rte_eth_dev_info_get() in event callback. The upper layer is entirely possible to use. After all, it is more convenient for app to use this pointer to get driver information in a probing callback. > > This set updates multiple things to extend 'RTE_ETH_EVENT_NEW' event > callback function support, like: > > - Assign device driver *before* probing completed, so that even callback > can run 'rte_eth_dev_info_get()' > > - Add a new ethdev state so that port can be recognized as valid port in > the even callback.

It is not just a testpmd application case, but, I think, still exists in actual case. Because eal lib supports hotplugging device on primary and secondary process and the communication each other when attach or detach device. The reason why no one has ever put forward this question, I think it may be attributed to the fact that the scene is not or rarely tested. > > And finally patch 4/5 adds port setup to testpmd event callback for this. > > > I understand the intention, but I disagree with bus and ethdev level > changes for this.
