Definition in file rte_dev.h. Typedef Documentation typedef int(* rte_dev_cmp_t) (const struct rte_device *dev, const void *data) Device comparison function. This type of function is used to compare an rte_device with arbitrary data. Parameters dev Device handle. data Data to compare against. The type of this parameter is determined by the kind of comparison performed by the function. Returns 0 if the device matches the data. !0 if the device does not match. <0 if ordering is possible and the device is lower than the data. >0 if ordering is possible and the device is greater than the data. Definition at line 233 of file rte_dev.h. typedef void *(* rte_dev_iterate_t) (const void *start, const char *devstr, const struct rte_dev_iterator *it) Device iteration function. Find the next device matching properties passed in parameters. The function takes an additional start parameter, that is used as starting context when relevant. The function returns the current element in the iteration. This return value will potentially be used as a start parameter in subsequent calls to the function. The additional iterator parameter is only there if a specific implementa- tion needs additional context. It must not be modified by the iteration function itself. Parameters start Starting iteration context. devstr Device description string. it Device iterator. Returns The address of the current element matching the device description string.

Parameters driver A pointer to a driver structure. Returns A pointer to the driver name string. const struct rte_bus * rte_dev_bus (const struct rte_device * dev) Retrieve a device bus. Parameters dev A pointer to a device structure. Returns A pointer to this device bus. const char * rte_dev_bus_info (const struct rte_device * dev) Retrieve bus specific information for a device. Parameters dev A pointer to a device structure. Returns A string describing this device or NULL if none is available. const struct rte_devargs * rte_dev_devargs (const struct rte_device * dev) Retrieve a device arguments. Parameters dev A pointer to a device structure. Returns A pointer to this device devargs. const struct rte_driver * rte_dev_driver (const struct rte_device * dev) Retrieve a device driver. Parameters dev A pointer to a device structure. Returns A pointer to this device driver. const char * rte_dev_name (const struct rte_device * dev) Retrieve a device name. Parameters dev A pointer to a device structure. Returns A pointer to this device name. int rte_dev_numa_node (const struct rte_device * dev) Retrieve a device numa node. Parameters dev A pointer to a device structure. Returns A pointer to this device numa node. int rte_dev_is_probed (const struct rte_device * dev) Query status of a device. Parameters dev Generic device pointer. Returns (int)true if already probed successfully, 0 otherwise. int rte_eal_hotplug_add (const char * busname, const char * devname, const char * drvargs) Hotplug add a given device to a specific bus. In multi-process, it will request other processes to add the same device. A failure, in any process, will rollback the action Parameters busname The bus name the device is added to. devname The device name. Based on this device name, eal will identify a driver capable of handling it and pass it to the driver probing func- tion. drvargs Device arguments to be passed to the driver. Returns 0 on success, negative on error. int rte_dev_probe (const char * devargs) Add matching devices. In multi-process, it will request other processes to add the same device. A failure, in any process, will rollback the action Parameters devargs Device arguments including bus, class and driver properties. Returns 0 on success, negative on error. int rte_eal_hotplug_remove (const char * busname, const char * devname) Hotplug remove a given device from a specific bus. In multi-process, it will request other processes to remove the same de- vice. A failure, in any process, will rollback the action Parameters busname The bus name the device is removed from. devname The device name being removed. Returns 0 on success, negative on error. int rte_dev_remove (struct rte_device * dev) Remove one device. In multi-process, it will request other processes to remove the same de- vice. A failure, in any process, will rollback the action Parameters dev Data structure of the device to remove. Returns 0 on success, negative on error. int rte_dev_iterator_init (struct rte_dev_iterator * it, const char * str) Initializes a device iterator. This iterator allows accessing a list of devices matching a criteria. The device matching is made among all buses and classes currently registered, filtered by the device description given as parameter. This function will not allocate any memory. It is safe to stop the itera- tion at any moment and let the iterator go out of context. Parameters it Device iterator handle. str Device description string. Returns 0 on successful initialization. <0 on error. struct rte_device * rte_dev_iterator_next (struct rte_dev_iterator * it) Iterates on a device iterator. Generates a new rte_device handle corresponding to the next element in the list described in comprehension by the iterator. The next object is returned, and the iterator is updated. Parameters it Device iterator handle. Returns An rte_device handle if found. NULL if an error occurred (rte_errno is set). NULL if no device could be found (rte_errno is not set). int rte_dev_event_callback_register (const char * device_name, rte_dev_event_cb_fn cb_fn, void * cb_arg) It registers the callback for the specific device. Multiple callbacks can be registered at the same time. Parameters device_name The device name, that is the param name of the struct rte_device, null value means for all devices. cb_fn callback address. cb_arg address of parameter for callback. Returns * On success, zero. * On failure, a negative value. int rte_dev_event_callback_unregister (const char * device_name, rte_dev_event_cb_fn cb_fn, void * cb_arg) It unregisters the callback according to the specified device. Parameters device_name The device name, that is the param name of the struct rte_device, null value means for all devices and their callbacks. cb_fn callback address. cb_arg address of parameter for callback, (void *)-1 means to remove all registered which has the same callback address. Returns * On success, return the number of callback entities removed. * On failure, a negative value. void rte_dev_event_callback_process (const char * device_name, enum rte_dev_event_type event) Executes all the user application registered callbacks for the specific de- vice. Parameters device_name The device name. event the device event type. int rte_dev_event_monitor_start (void) Start the device event monitoring. Returns * On success, zero. * On failure, a negative value. int rte_dev_event_monitor_stop (void) Stop the device event monitoring. Returns * On success, zero. * On failure, a negative value. int rte_dev_hotplug_handle_enable (void) Enable hotplug handling for devices. Returns * On success, zero. * On failure, a negative value. int rte_dev_hotplug_handle_disable (void) Disable hotplug handling for devices. Returns * On success, zero. * On failure, a negative value. int rte_dev_dma_map (struct rte_device * dev, void * addr, uint64_t iova, size_t len) Device level DMA map function. After a successful call, the memory segment will be mapped to the given device. Note : Memory must be registered in advance using rte_extmem_* APIs. Parameters dev Device pointer. addr Virtual address to map. iova IOVA address to map. len Length of the memory segment being mapped. Returns 0 if mapping was successful. Negative value and rte_errno is set other- wise. int rte_dev_dma_unmap (struct rte_device * dev, void * addr, uint64_t iova, size_t len) Device level DMA unmap function. After a successful call, the memory seg- ment will no longer be accessible by the given device. Note : Memory must be registered in advance using rte_extmem_* APIs. Parameters dev Device pointer. addr Virtual address to unmap. iova IOVA address to unmap. len Length of the memory segment being mapped. Returns 0 if un-mapping was successful. Negative value and rte_errno is set otherwise. Author Generated automatically by Doxygen for DPDK from the source code. Version 25.11.0 Thu Aug 27 2026 rte_dev.h(3)
