Hi Dheemanth,

I didn't check the patch yet but as a very high level comment,
it is possible to create multiple KNI interface and use multiple cores for each,
instead of multiple FIFO in a single interface. KNI example uses this approach.
Did you investigate this approach? What is the benefit of multiple FIFO against
multiple KNI interface?

Thanks,
ferruh
