Secondary if PMD should not be attempting to cleanup (especially for ethdev_ptr shared from primary) I agree to that. But should not be covered in library or PMD. While cleanup for other needs to be done properly Without a mechanism to notify or synchronize that teardown, You already have health check added in the code for identify if primay is still alive or not.. There used to be MP thread spawned which actually piggy back the communication. Is this broken? Can you please point to git-blame where MP thread does not communicate or notify the cleanup or synchronise (lets fix it asap).
