[dpdk-dev] [PATCH] service: add new `rte_service_lcore_count_services` API

[dpdk-dev] [PATCH] service: add new `rte_service_lcore_count_services` API

[Pavan Nikhilesh]

This new API returns the number of services that are running on a specific
service core. It allows an application to decide which service core to run
a new service on.

Hi,

Thanks - yes a useful addition to the API. Comments inline below, apart from that, thanks for the addition!

Perhaps -ENOTSUP would be clearer for "not a service core"?
Then -EINVAL becomes available to indicate an invalid lcore-id pass in?
