[dpdk-dev,1/5] ethdev: introduce device removal event
Checks
Commit Message
This new API allows reacting to a device removal.
A device removal is the sudden disappearance of a device from its
bus.
PMDs implementing support for this notification guarantee that the removal
of the underlying device does not incur a risk to the application.
In particular, Rx/Tx bursts and all other functions can still be called
(albeit likely returning errors) without triggering a crash, irrespective
of an application handling this event.

The RX interrupt are controlled/enabled/disabled by ethdev APIs - 'rte_eth_dev_rx_intr_*'. They return failure if the PMD
hasn't support them yet. The intr_conf.rxq flag is used to turn on the capability of RX interrupt per device.
++ Device Removal Event
+
+This event is triggered by a device being removed at a bus level. Its
+underlying resources may have been made unavailable (i.e. PCI mappings
+unmapped). The PMD must make sure that on such occurrence, the application can
+still safely use its callbacks.
+
+This event can be subscribed to in the same way one would subscribe to a link
+status change event. The execution context is thus the same, i.e. it is the
+dedicated interrupt host thread.
+
+Considering this, it is likely that an application would want to close a
+device having emitted a Device Removal Event. In such case, calling
+``rte_eth_dev_close()`` can trigger it to unregister its own Device Removal Event
+callback. Care must be taken not to close the device from the interrupt handler
+context. It is necessary to reschedule such closing operation.
