  Since the commit e84ad157b7bc ("pci: unmap resources if probe fails"),
EAL unmaps the PCI device if ethdev probe returns positive or
negative value.

nicvf thunderx PMD needs special treatment for Secondary queue set(SQS)
PCIe VF devices, where, it expects to not unmap or free the memory
without registering the ethdev subsystem.

To keep the same behavior, moved the PCI map function inside
the driver without using the EAL services.

What do you think adding a flag something like
RTE_PCI_DRV_FIXED_MAPPING? Does mapping but not unmap on error.
This would be more generic solution.

I am concerned about calling eal level API from PMD.

Understood.

Another option is to unmap only on ERROR(ie, when probe return <0 value)

	ret = dr->probe(dr, dev);
        if (ret) { // change to if (ret < 0)
                dev->driver = NULL;
                if (dr->drv_flags & RTE_PCI_DRV_NEED_MAPPING)
                        rte_pci_unmap_device(dev);
        }

I am fine with either way. Let me know, what you prefer. I will
change accordingly.

"unmap only on ERROR" looks simpler, but it needs to be documented -in
the code, otherwise easy to miss in the future:

probe() return:
0   : success
< 0 : error, unmap resources
> 0 : error, no unmap

And requires to check that all existing drivers return negative error on
probe()


Adding new flag is more explicit, and no need to concern about what
other PMDs return, but can be overkill.


I would go with second option, but I guess both are OK, -as long as
behavior change in first one is commented in the code. Please pick one.

Thanks,
ferruh
