Subject: ethdev: add lock to port allocation check
X-Git-Url: http://git.droids-corp.org/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=ac7d3b6ddf87e1e0435de6d40cfe2749dc0ff9a4;p=dpdk.git

ethdev: add lock to port allocation check

When comparing the port name, there can be a race condition with
a thread allocating a new port and writing the name at the same time.
It can lead to match with a partial name by error.

The check of the port is now considered as a critical section
protected with locks.

This fix will be even more required for multi-process when the
port availability will rely only on the name, in a following patch.
