[dpdk-dev] [PATCH] pci: save list of detached devices, and re-probe during driver unload

[Raz Amir]

The patch I suggest is in the nic_uio freebsd kernel driver. I don't think
that rte_log can be used there.
I checked the contigmem freebsd driver and it uses printf.
I can either remove those printfs, or keep them.
I suggest keeping them as they were very helpful for understanding the flow,
and they don't provide too much output (depending on the amount of
interfaces connected to the nic_uio driver).

How should I continue with this patch?
BTW, I don't see it in incoming patches page at
http://dpdk.org/dev/patchwork/project/dpdk/list/?page=1 
Is it because I missed something in the code contribution instruction?

my bad, I didn't see it defined and was thinking it was removed from an
earlier version of the dpdk.
