[dpdk-dev] [PATCH] app test: fix mempool cache_size not match limited cache_size

[dpdk-dev] [PATCH] app test: fix mempool cache_size not match limited cache_size

[Yong Liu]

From: Marvin Liu <yong.liu@intel.com>

In previous setting, mempool size and cache_size are both 32.
This is not satisfied with cache_size checking rule by now.
Cache size should less than CONFIG_RTE_MEMPOOL_CACHE_MAX_SIZE and mempool size / 1.5.

Applied after removing PKT_BURST_SZ, thanks

Sorry I don't really understand this explanation.

Shouldn't be MEMPOOL_CACHE_SZ to set to 0?

[Liu, Yong]

Thanks Thomas.

This information is stripped from the description for parameter cache_size of function rte_mempool_create.
Now rte_mempool_create function will check cache_size value less than mempool size /1.5. 

In test_sched.c, mempool size and cache size are all 32 and not match mempool cache size checking rule.
This will cause sched_autotest not work.

Macro PKT_BURST_SZ not used in this file, MEMPOOL_CACHE_SZ should be set to 0.
