Hello , I am trying to write an application based on DPDK port hotplug feature . My requirement is to get an event when a new PCI devices gets added to the system on the go.
Do we have any in-built mechanism in DPDK (UIO/e1000/vfio drivers ) that i can use to get notifications when a new device gets added . I know the alternatives such as inotify etc . But i am more interested to get equivalent support in dpdk drivers . Please let me know .
