[dpdk-dev] [PATCH 2/2] app/testpmd: improve handling of multiprocess

Marcin Kerlin marcinx.kerlin at intel.com
Fri Sep 2 10:58:30 CEST 2016


Added lookup for pool name because secondary process should attach to
mempool created by primary process rather than create new one.

Added function free_shared_dev_data() used at the exit of the testpmd.
This causes detach devices data from array rte_eth_dev_data[] shared
between all processes. This allows to have a up-to-date list of devices
data and run again secondary application with the same name.
