Dear Ray, As you probably suspect: plugins are neither unloaded nor reloaded.

There is very rich code/documentation talking about plugin registration/initialization and node registration. I understand that nodes are created during node graph build up and during plugin init function I can further manipulate the edges of my nodes. However, I'm having trouble finding the code that handles node tear down/plugin un-initialization. Does VPP have a notion of plugin/node un-initialization? For example, if my plugin allocated some object during init, I would expect to free it in un-init. If there is such concept, what should I search to find them? Or pretty much the node/plugin lives as long as the VPP process is running and the plugin/node life cycle is never going to be shorter than VPP process? Thanks a lot! -Ray
