I am suspicious on adding new root level command to testpmd, it is getting bigger, each command looks OK on its own context, but as a whole app getting more confusing [1]. Since dealing with device is kind of new, it can be OK to create new command tree, but there are already hotplug commands per port: "port attach #PCI|#VDEV_NAME" "port detach #P" perhaps it can be good to keep "attach", "detach" keywords for device to be consistent? "device attach #name" "device detach #name" Also a show equivalent can be added to work in device level: "show device info" [1] http://dpdk.org/ml/archives/dev/2017-August/072764.html
