Subject: [dpdk-stable] [PATCH] app/testpmd: fix number of mbufs in pool
Date: Fri, 19 May 2017 10:13:02 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20170519081302.13557-1-olivier.matz@6wind.com> (raw)

[ backported from upstream commit 3ab64341daf8bae485a7e27c68f1dd80c7fd5130 ]

The number of mbufs in pools is not consistent depending on the
options passed by the user and the number of ports, especially
in numa mode, when the number of mbuf is specified by the user.

When the user specifies the number of mbuf (per pool), it should
overrides the default value.

Since the
commit 999b2ee0fe45 ("app/testpmd: enable NUMA support by default")
is not present in the stable branch, update the commit log and retest:
  --no-numa is removed
  --numa is added when nothing was specified
