There is nothing that says anything about PMD and loading a single
module. However, the Getting Started Guide refers to "dymanic kernel
tweaks" citing "modules", all in a plural form:<br>
<i>"Running an Intel®DPDK application requires some kernel
configuration customization (done at build time) and some dynamic
kernel tweaks (<span class="highlight selected">module</span>s,
procfs).</i>"<br>
<br>
A list of strings can be implemented using a "null terminated
array", as suggested in my review. So yes, it could be a good
solution.<br>
