The rte_eth_dev_pci_generic_remove() will be called to detach an Ethernet
device when App calls rte_dev_remove() to detach a pci device. In addition,
the rte_eth_dev_close() can also detach an Ethernet device.
In secondary process, if App first calls rte_eth_dev_close() and then calls
rte_dev_remove(), because rte_eth_dev_close() doesn't clear "eth_dev->data"
It would be clearer if you start this sentence with:
"In secondary process, rte_eth_dev_close() doesn't clear eth_dev->data."
Then you can explain that if calling rte_dev_remove() after rte_eth_dev_close(),
etc...
Right. Thanks!😁

, the address of the released Ethernet device can still be found by device
name. As a result, the Ethernet device will be released repeatedly in this
case. The state of the Ethernet device is equal to RTE_ETH_DEV_UNUSED after
calling rte_eth_dev_close(). Use this state to avoid this problem.

This is a comment for the commit log.
Inside the code, we should be more to the point.
I suggest this comment:
/* A released port can be found by its name in shared memory. */

Better to directly compare with RTE_PROC_SECONDARY

Not sure we need any log here.
