  Virtual devices added in pdump application
using rte_eal_hotplug_add should be removed explicitly
while existing the pdump application, otherwise the
subsequent run of the pdump application will fail with the reason
that virtual devices with the same name already exists in primary.

Fixes: 6362f362a2 ("app/pdump: use EAL hotplug instead of ethdev attach")

Why is it marked as a fix of this commit?
Is it a miss in the conversion from ethdev attach calls?
Or a changed behaviour with hotplug functions?

It is changed behaviour with hotplug functions.

Thanks,

Please, could you explain?

Attach calls were replaced with rte_eal_hotplug_remove() in pdump in the commit id given in Fixes line.

And after this change, the subsequent runs(other than 1st) of pdump application are failing with below error

1)Pdump application error:

EAL: Failed to hotplug add device
EAL: Error - exiting with code: 1
  Cause: vdev creation failed:create_mp_ring_vdev:706

2)And error on primary application side is below:
	testpmd> Ethernet device with name net_pcap_rx_0 already allocated
                EAL: Failed to hotplug add device on primary

So, the dev added in secondary should be removed during its exit by calling rte_eal_hotplug_remove ().

So,  that is the reason I chose the Fixes: commit as the one where rte_eal_hotplug_add() replaced the attach.

Earlier with attach calls though not detaching the devices upon application exit, these issues are not seen.

Thanks,
Reshma

OK
I won't dig to understand why this error was hidden with previous API.
I'll assume there is no need to backport this fix in 17.11.
