If it is to get the regs length, you can directly call  "rte_ethtool_get_regs_len(uint16_t port_id)" API , instead of  again writing the above logic.
And use the returned length in below malloc.

+		fp_regs = fopen(file_name, "wb");
+		if (fp_regs == NULL) {
+			printf("Error during opening '%s' for writing\n",
+					file_name);
Better to print error string from fopen() errno on failure , to indicate the exact error.
+		} else {
+			if ((int)fwrite(buf_data, 1, buf_size, fp_regs) !=
Better have "((int)fwrite(buf_data, 1, buf_size, fp_regs)" In separate line and use the returned value inside if check.

Better to print error string from fwrite errno on failure , to indicate the exact error.

Reframe the sente to "Device regs dumped successfully"
