From: Lijun Ou <redacted> This patch adds multi-process support for testpmd. The test cmd example as follows: the primary cmd: ./dpdk-testpmd -a xxx --proc-type=auto -l 0-1 -- -i \ --rxq=4 --txq=4 --num-procs=2 --proc-id=0 the secondary cmd: ./dpdk-testpmd -a xxx --proc-type=auto -l 2-3 -- -i \ --rxq=4 --txq=4 --num-procs=2 --proc-id=1 Signed-off-by: Min Hu (Connor) <redacted> Signed-off-by: Lijun Ou <redacted>Some minor nits below. Otherwise looks fine to me. Acked-by: Ajit Khaparde <ajit.khaparde@broadcom.com>Thanks Ajit. Hi, Ferruh, Should I send v9 to fix the grammar bugs in doc which Ajit point out or fix it in future?Hi Connor, if they are only outstanding issues, I can fix them while merging.
Thanks Ferruh.
