Subject: [dpdk-dev] [PATCH v2 1/3] net/ixgbe: enable hotplug detect in
ixgbe

This patch aim to enable hotplug detect in ixgbe pmd driver. Firstly
it set the flags RTE_PCI_DRV_INTR_RMV in drv_flags to announce the
hotplug ability, and then use rte_dev_event_callback_register to
register the hotplug event callback to eal. When eal detect the
hotplug event, it will call the callback to process it, if the event
is hotplug remove, it will trigger the RTE_ETH_EVENT_INTR_RMV event
into ethdev callback to let app process the hotplug for the ethdev.

This is an example for other driver, that if any driver support
hotplug feature could be use this way to enable hotplug detect.

I don't get the point. Looks like this's a very common rte code. Why is it put 
in
ixgbe pmd?
Jeff needs to detect if the removed device is related to this PMD, than to 
raise RMV events for all this PMD ethdev associated ports.
He should not raise RMV events for other PMD  ports.


It should be like wenzhuo said that i could no strong reason to let common way in ixgbe pmd. And sure raise RMV events for none related PMD ports is not my hope.
Will plan to let it go into the eth dev layer to process it.
