[PATCH 13/23] bus: support multiple probe

David Marchand david.marchand at redhat.com
Wed Apr 29 13:44:46 CEST 2026


Add infrastructure to declare support for multiple probe attempts
on the same device. This prepares for the introduction of
generic probe_device operation.

The PCI bus enables this feature to support drivers with
RTE_PCI_DRV_PROBE_AGAIN flag.
