Hi Ferruh,
Great catch! I'm embarrassed.
In all honesty, I made this fix for our applications back for DPDK 16.07. At
that time, the drv_name used to get initialized by rte_eth_copy_pci_info() and
each driver was responsible for calling rte_eth_copy_pci_info() in their init
functions. Our apps would crash for ena devices when we tried to reference the
drv_name.
I just realized I had never upstreamed this private patch and pushed it along
with some others recently made yesterday.
So, you're 100% right it is no longer needed. Probably all of the drivers
should remove calling it in their init functions to remove this
legacy/deprecated requirement.
Sorry for the noise...
Regards,
Dave
