> The patch was submitted for fixing the Virtio Crypto Initialization Segmentation Fault problem introduced in 18.11 RC1, and it did. The problem is I don't think the patch will fix all problems of rte_pci_read_config(). Even I added RTE_KDRV_UIO_GENERIC type into the switch case there is a remaining RTE_KDRV_NIC_UIO type I am not sure where to fit due to the limited knowledge.
