As there is no use for those dummy functions without VFIO removing them
completely.
These functions are part of public API, like rest of functions in this
header. They're in the map file. Should we perhaps go the BSD way and
provide EAL with dummy prototypes as well? See bsdapp/eal/eal.c:763 onwards.
Why using dummy prototypes?
Because the prototypes in rte_vfio.h are under #ifdef VFIO_PRESENT ?
Is it possible to always define the prototypes in rte_vfio.h ?
Well, technically, yes, we could. There is one function that uses a
VFIO-specific struct definition:
int rte_vfio_setup_device(const char *sysfs_base, const char *dev_addr,
int *vfio_dev_fd, struct vfio_device_info *device_info);
I'm sure we can work around that.
Removing dummy prototypes need, would be a nicer fix.
OK. Shahaf, will you submit a v2 with this, or should i do it? I think
it should be just a matter of #ifndef VFIO_PRESENT //define
vfio_device_info struct #endif - this should take care of the problem of
hiding the function definitions.
FreeBSD will also need to be adjusted to remove dummy prototypes.
