Re: [dpdk-dev] PATCH 1/2] i40e: support floating VEB config

["Xu, Qian Q" <qian.q.xu@intel.com>]

If test the feature by testpmd, how to set the parameter? Need testpmd document update also? 

Thanks
Qian

Subject: [dpdk-dev] PATCH 1/2] i40e: support floating VEB config

Add the new floating related argument option in the EAL.
using this parameter, all the samples can decide whether to use legacy VEB/VEPA,  or floating VEB.
