Following various issues seen in deployments that involved mlx5 devices, here is a proposal to disable DPDK initial device probing.
Changing this as the default behavior should be fine as OVS relies on hotplugs for many years now. But in case something gets broken, keep an option to restore the original behavior. -- David Marchand Changes since RFC v1: - adjusted logs in patch 1, - handled other DPDK buses in patch 2, David Marchand (2): netdev-dpdk: Enhance logging for port hotplug. dpdk: Disable initial device probe.
