Subject: [PATCH 3/3] doc: remove ABI changes in igb_uio
Date: Tue, 24 Jan 2017 07:34:08 +0000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1485243248-27082-4-git-send-email-jianfeng.tan@intel.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1485243248-27082-1-git-send-email-jianfeng.tan@intel.com>
We announced ABI changes to remove iomem and ioport mapping in
igb_uio. But it has potential backward compatibility issue: cannot
run old version DPDK on modified igb_uio.
The purpose of this changes was to fix a bug: when DPDK app crashes,
those devices by igb_uio are not stopped either DPDK PMD driver or
igb_uio driver. We need to figure out new way to fix this bug.
Fixes: 3bac1dbc1ed ("doc: announce iomem and ioport removal from igb_uio")

Deprecation Notices
-------------------
-* igb_uio: iomem mapping and sysfs files created for iomem and ioport in
- igb_uio will be removed, because we are able to detect these from what Linux
- has exposed, like the way we have done with uio-pci-generic. This change
- targets release 17.02.
-
* ABI/API changes are planned for 17.02: ``rte_device``, ``rte_driver`` will be
impacted because of introduction of a new ``rte_bus`` hierarchy. This would
also impact the way devices are identified by EAL. A bus-device-driver model
