Hello,

I tested it out, and the updates to testpmd seem to work.

Before applying the second patch:
  ---------------------- Forward statistics for port 0  ----------------------
  RX-packets: 0              RX-dropped: 0             RX-total: 0
  TX-packets: 43769238       TX-dropped: 62634         TX-total: 43831872
  ----------------------------------------------------------------------------

  ---------------------- Forward statistics for port 1  ----------------------
  RX-packets: 0              RX-dropped: 0             RX-total: 0
  TX-packets: 43761119       TX-dropped: 70753         TX-total: 43831872
  ----------------------------------------------------------------------------

  +++++++++++++++ Accumulated forward statistics for all ports+++++++++++++++
  RX-packets: 0              RX-dropped: 0             RX-total: 0
  TX-packets: 87530357       TX-dropped: 157302        TX-total: 87687659
  ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

62634 + 70753 = 133387 != 157302

After applying the second patch:
  ---------------------- Forward statistics for port 0  ----------------------
  RX-packets: 0              RX-dropped: 0             RX-total: 0
  TX-packets: 12590721       TX-dropped: 36638         TX-total: 12627359
  ----------------------------------------------------------------------------

  ---------------------- Forward statistics for port 1  ----------------------
  RX-packets: 0              RX-dropped: 0             RX-total: 0
  TX-packets: 12596255       TX-dropped: 31746         TX-total: 12628001
  ----------------------------------------------------------------------------

  +++++++++++++++ Accumulated forward statistics for all ports+++++++++++++++
  RX-packets: 0              RX-dropped: 0             RX-total: 0
  TX-packets: 25186976       TX-dropped: 68384         TX-total: 25255360

Thanks,

Hi Joshua, Rushil,

As I checked for it, issue may be related to testpmd stats display,

While displaying per port TX-dropped value, it only takes
'ports_stats[pt_id].tx_dropped' into account,
but for accumulated TX-dropped results it takes both
'ports_stats[pt_id].tx_dropped' & 'stats.oerrors' into account.

If you can reproduce it easily, can you please test with following change:
