This is a recommended way to find the device after probe, but it looks very
unclear. Can we just call 'rte_eth_dev_get_port_by_name(name, &new_port_id)'
here instead ? It should have same effect.
If not, it'll be nice to have some comments.

Indents are a bit off.

Yeah, looks like we can use it in this case. Changed to that in v2 and
checked the return before setting attached.

I have submitted a patch on the same issue, see [1]. 
Please suggest how to unify our patches.

I suggest having a direct access to the device (rather than accessing dev_info).
rte_eth_devices[dev->port_id].device;

> +        if (dev_info.device && !rte_dev_remove(dev_info.device)) {

With dpdk 18.11 an rte device can be used by multiple eth devices (one to many relationship).
Remark: in OVS terms an eth device is a dpdk port_id.
When calling rte_dev_remove() all the eth devices are closed and the PCI device is detached. 
We need to count the number of eth devices used by the rte device. Only when closing the last eth device 
shoud we call rte_dev_remove (it is like a reference count algorithm).
For example: if we add to OVS 2 ports belonging the same rte device (e.g. the same PCI bus address) then after deleting one of the ports we should not implicitly delete the other port. 
This case is handled in [1]

+1
Good point which I missed! 
Indeed we should free resources by calling the rte_eth_iterator_cleanup().

It seems with this patch the code still has the call: rte_eth_dev_get_port_by_name(). 
This call is no more relevant when using representors. Previously a PCI address (e.g. 0000:08.00:0) was used in devargs.
With dpdk 18.11 a device devargs became a regular expression string, (e.g. 0000:08.00:0,representor=[1]) which is different than the device name assigned by the PMD.
In other words: previously devargs and device name where identical. Starting from dpdk 18.11 they are not.
This case is handled in [1].

Before calling ret_dev_remove() we should check if there are no more ports which use the same device.
If there are - we should fail the detach command with an appropriate error message to the user. 
Please see [1].

Hi Ophir,

I looked through your patch and it is trying to do two things:
1. update OVS to use DPDK 18.11
2. enable additional functionality/representors etc in OVS based on
using DPDK 18.11

I don't think that needs to be all in one patch and there isn't really
any throw away work in doing 1. on it's own. My suggestion is that we
proceed with 1. through the patches I sent, and then (or in parallel)
you can send patches to cover 2.

What do people think?

thanks,
Kevin.

They are all valid comments, but as per above, I was only trying to
cover 1. in these patches.

+1, the RFC submitted by Kevin to move to 18.11 isn't too complicated and allows for the same functionality we had when using DPDK 17.11. My preference is to upstream this work first. This provides a stable base to work from when adding the new functionality enabled by 18.11.

Upstreaming this work first will enable the travis build for dpdk-latest and dpdk-hwol to pass again which is also welcome.

I don't think that we can use 'rte_eth_devices' directly because it
marked as @internal in dpdk code. Also it's located in file
lib/librte_ethdev/rte_ethdev_core.h, which has following disclaimer:

/**
 * @file
 *
 * RTE Ethernet Device internal header.
 *
 * This header contains internal data types. But they are still part of the
 * public API because they are used by inline functions in the published API.
 *
 * Applications should not use these directly.
 *
 */

I'd like to raise this issue in DPDK community, because test-pmd and some
example apps are using this array directly.

Best regards, Ilya Maximets.
