  The patch adds function pointer to rte_pci_driver and eth_driver
structure. These function pointers are used when ports are detached.
Also, the patch adds rte_eth_dev_uninit(). So far, it's not called
by anywhere, but it will be called when port hotplug function is
implemented.

v9:
- Change parameter of pci_devuninit_t and rte_eth_dev_uninit.
- Remove code that initiaize callback of ethdev from
  rte_eth_dev_uninit().
- Add a function to create a unique device name.
  (Thanks to Thomas Monjalon)
v6:
- Fix rte_eth_dev_uninit() to handle a return value of uninit
  function of PMD.
v4:
- Add parameter checking.
- Change function names.

Hi Tetsuya,

It would be safer to pass in the size of the name buffer and use it in the snprintf() call .


Regards,

Bernard.

Hi Bernard,

Thanks, I will do it.
