TAILQ_HEAD ( rte_driver_list  ,
rte_driver   
)

Double linked list of device drivers.

void rte_eal_driver_register ( struct rte_driver driver)

Register a device driver.

Parameters
driverA pointer to a rte_dev structure describing the driver to be registered.
void rte_eal_driver_unregister ( struct rte_driver driver)

Unregister a device driver.

Parameters
driverA pointer to a rte_dev structure describing the driver to be unregistered.
int rte_eal_dev_init ( void  )

Parameters
nameThe pointer to a driver name to be initialized.
argsThe pointer to arguments used by driver initialization.
Returns
0 on success, negative on error
int rte_eal_vdev_uninit ( const char *  name)
