+PMD Power Management Mode +-------------------------
There should be a blank line here.
+There is also a traffic-aware operating mode that, instead of using explicit +power management, will use automatic PMD power management. This mode is limited +to one queue per core, and has three available power management schemes: + +* ``monitor`` - this will use ``rte_power_monitor()`` function to enter a + power-optimized state (subject to platform support). + +* ``pause`` - this will use ``rte_power_pause()`` or ``rte_pause()`` to avoid + busy looping when there is no traffic. + +* ``scale`` - this will use frequency scaling routines available in the + ``librte_power`` library.
Better to use a definition list for such explanations: https://docutils.sourceforge.io/docs/user/rst/quickref.html#definition-lists I will update while merging.
