Well, it's actually a same story. So, still one user to me.

Yes, I forgot to mention that you need keep that file open.
So, you just need one line or two to not close that file
in this case.

We could, if we keep the file open.

What's wrong of the string processing? I have seen many string
processings in DPDK code, even in rte_memory.c.

That doens't seem elegant to me.

Actually, Tetsuya's qtest patchset will make it two.

I guess this rtemap_xxx has been closed after memory initialization and
cannot be obtained from /proc/xxx/fd. I believe /proc/xxx/maps is what
you want to say.

Same reason, we cannot save extra "open".

Yes, from function's side, it works for me. But it needs some string
processing. Another way is to just exposed an global variable pointing
to the address of /run/.rte_config, so that callers extract needed
information by themselves using "struct hugepage_file". How do you think?

I would normally suggest to try hard to find some solution else, instead
of introducing yet another new API, espeically when you just came up with
one user only.

So, that's all the info you'd like to get. I'm thinking you may don't
need another new API to retrieve them at all:
Say, you can get the filepath and fd from /proc/self/fd (by filtering it
with "rtemap_"):
$ ls /proc/3487/fd -l
total 0
lrwx-- 1 root root 64 Mar 7 20:37 0 -> /dev/pts/2
lrwx-- 1 root root 64 Mar 7 20:37 1 -> /dev/pts/2
lrwx-- 1 root root 64 Mar 7 20:37 2 -> /dev/pts/2
lrwx-- 1 root root 64 Mar 7 20:37 3 -> /run/.rte_config
lr-x-- 1 root root 64 Mar 7 20:37 4 -> /dev/hugepages
lr-x-- 1 root root 64 Mar 7 20:37 5 -> /mnt
==> lrwx-- 1 root root 64 Mar 7 20:37 6 -> /dev/hugepages/rtemap_0
Which could also save you an extra "open" at caller side for that
file as well.
And you can get the virtual addr and size from /proc/self/maps:
$ grep rtemap_ /proc/3487/maps
7fff4000-7fffc000 rw-s 00:22 21082 /dev/hugepages/rtemap_0
Will that work for you?

[dpdk-dev] [PATCH v2 2/5] mem: add API to obtain memory-backed file info
A new API named rte_eal_get_backfile_info() and a new data
struct back_file is added to obstain information of memory-
backed file info.
