v4 changes: Rebase as IO port map is moved to EAL. Reword some commit messages. Don't fall back to PORT IO if VFIO/UIO fails.
v3 changes: Change log message to tell user that the virtio device is skipped due to it is managed by kernel driver, instead of asking user to unbind it from kernel driver. v2 changes: Remove unnecessary assignment of NULL to dev->data->mac_addrs Ajust one comment's position change LOG level from ERR to INFO virtio PMD doesn't set RTE_PCI_DRV_NEED_MAPPING in drv_flags of its eth_driver. It will try igb_uio and PORT IO in turn to configure virtio device. Even user in guest VM doesn't want to use virtio for DPDK, virtio PMD will take over the device blindly. The more serious problem is kernel driver is still managing the device, which causes driver conflict. This patch checks if there is kernel driver(other than UIO/VFIO) managing the virtio device before virtio PMD uses port IO to configure the device. Huawei Xie (4): eal: make the comment more accurate eal: set kdrv to RTE_KDRV_NONE if kernel driver isn't managing the device. eal: call pci_ioport_map when kernel driver isn't managing the device virtio: return 1 to tell the upper layer we don't take over this device drivers/net/virtio/virtio_ethdev.c | 9 +++++++-- drivers/net/virtio/virtio_pci.c | 15 ++++++++++++++- lib/librte_eal/common/eal_common_pci.c | 8 ++++---- lib/librte_eal/linuxapp/eal/eal_pci.c | 16 +++++++--------- 4 files changed, 32 insertions(+), 16 deletions(-) -- 1.8.1.4
