You don't need to add devargs to the devargs_list.
The devargs_list is only needed at the init to store the arguments
when we parse the command line. Then, at initialization,
rte_eal_dev_init creates the devices from this list .
Instead of adding the devargs in the list, you could have the following code:
static int
rte_eal_dev_attach_vdev(const char *vdevargs, uint8_t *port_id)
{
...
/* save current port status */
if (rte_eth_dev_save(devs, sizeof(devs)))
goto err;
devargs = rte_eal_parse_devargs_str(RTE_
DEVTYPE_VIRTUAL, vdevargs);
if (devargs == NULL)
goto err;
if (rte_eal_vdev_devinit(devargs) < 0)
goto err;
if (rte_eth_dev_get_changed_port(devs, &new_port_id))
goto err;
...
}
What do you think ?

The same here, you don't need to remove devargs from the devargs_list.
Instead of removing the devargs in the list, you could have the following code::
static int
rte_eal_dev_detach_vdev(uint8_t port_id, char *vdevname)
{
...
/* check whether the driver supports detach feature, or not */
if (rte_eth_dev_is_detachable(port_id))
goto err;
/* get device name by port id */
if (rte_eth_dev_get_name_by_port(port_id, name))
goto err;
if (rte_eal_vdev_uninit(name))
goto err;
...
}
What do you think ?
