This patch adds "filter" and "names" fields to "rte_dev_reg_info"
structure. Names of registers in data fields can be reported and
the registers can be filtered by their names.
The new API rte_eth_dev_get_reg_info_ext() is added to support
reporting names and filtering by names. And the original API
rte_eth_dev_get_reg_info() does not use the name and filter fields.
A local variable is used in rte_eth_dev_get_reg_info for
compatibility. If the drivers does not report the names, set them
to "offset_XXX".

Could you add support to DPDK ethtool for displaying these?
.
Hi, Stephen,
Thanks for your review.
The app proc-info and ethtool already support dump registers with
the rte_eth_dev_get_reg_info API. For the use of the new API,
I think it's better to discuss whether to add or replace the
API of the two apps after the API of the new version is applied.
Best Regards,
Jie Hai
