+Detach a specific port.
+
+Before detaching a port, the port should be closed.
+Also to remove a pci device completely from the system, first detach the port from testpmd.
+Then the device should be moved under kernel management.
+Finally the device can be remove using kernel pci hotplug functionality.
Hi Tetsuya,
Reword "remove" to "removed"

+On the other hand, to remove a port created by virtual device, above steps are not needed.
 Reword " created by virtual device" to "created by a virtual device"

+port detach (port_id)

+For example, to detach a port 0.
+
+.. code-block:: console
+
+    testpmd> port detach 0
+    Detaching a port...
+    ... snip ...
+    Done

 port start
