Cover letter [PATCH v6 0/7] switching device representation
This patchset follows on from the port rerpesentor patchsets and the community discussion that resulted. It outlines the model for representing and controlling switching capable devices in a new programmer's guide entry based upon the excellent summary by Adrien Mazarguil in
(http://dpdk.org/ml/archives/dev/2018-March/092513.html).
The next patches introduce changes to librte_ether to:
1, support the definition of a switch domain and make it public to application through the rte_eth_dev_info structure.
2, Add generic ethdev create/destroy APIs to facilitate and generalise the creation of ethdev's on different bus types.
3, Add ethdev attribute to dev_flags to specify that a port is a representor port and make public through the rte_eth_dev_info structure.
4, Add devargs parsing for generic eth_devargs to facilate parsing in NET PMDs. This will be refactored to take account of the changes in
(http://dpdk.org/ml/archives/dev/2018-March/092513.html)
This patchset also includes the enablement of port representor for ixgbe and i40e PF devices.
