Re: [dpdk-users] dpdk-pdump: pdump_create_client_socket fails to run along with kni app

Hi Gowrishankar,

Primary application here kni should initialize packet capture framework using rte_pdump_init(). And uninitialize rte_pdump_uninit() before application terminates.
In DPDK by default only testpmd  has init/uninit changes added. Rest other application that wants to use pdump should do these changes explicitly, make the build and
rerun the primary and dpdk-pdump applications.

Please refer app/test-pmd/testpmd.c for rte_pdump* code changes and make similar change in kni main.c and retest.

Let me know if you stuck.

Thanks,
Reshma
