I understand the problem and why application needs to involve, but the question is what will happen if application is not aware of this and not handled this event, or ported from different NIC etc. Do you want to make handling this event mandatory for each DPDK application? Btw, what about my suggestion [1] to use different version of burst ops update function in PMDs to prevent crash?
