Hi,

FYI, your patch has been queued to LTS release 16.11.9

Note it hasn't been pushed to http://dpdk.org/browse/dpdk-stable yet.
It will be pushed if I get no objections before 11/11/18. So please
shout if anyone has objections.

Also note that after the patch there's a diff of the upstream commit vs the patch applied
to the branch. If the code is different (ie: not only metadata diffs), due for example to
a change in context or macro names, please double check it.

Thanks.

Luca Boccassi

Subject: [PATCH] igb_uio: remove device reset in open

[ upstream commit f73b38e9245d77d4d6b5861f8d203c0bf5120b15 ]

Remove device reset during application start, the reset for application
exit still there.

Reset in open removed because of following comments:
1- Device reset not completed when VF driver loaded, which cause VF PMD
   initialization error.
   Adding delay can solve the issue but will increase driver load time.

2- Reset will be issues all devices unconditionally, not very efficient
   way.

Fixes: b58eedfc7dd5 ("igb_uio: issue FLR during open and release of device file")
