Hi,
My goal is to test DPDK applications running on the same server as a primary process and secondary process.
When I execute two dpdk-simple-mp processes, one as primary and other as secondary, I see them both startup with no issues.

# ./dpdk-simple_mp -c 0x2 -n 4 --legacy-mem --proc-type primary --
# ./dpdk-simple_mp -c 0x8 -n 4 --legacy-mem --proc-type secondary --


Now when I test our DPDK application (as primary) and same dpdk-simple-mp (as secondary) I get error "EAL: Cannot initialize tailq: RTE_FIB).
         EAL args: MyApp, -l 25,26,27,28 -n 4 -socket-mem=2048, --legacy-mem -no-telemetry -proc_type=primary

         # ./dpdk-simple_mp -l 24 -n 4 --legacy-mem --proc-type secondary --


When I use gdb I see that t->head is 0x0 in eal_common_tailqs.c Line 148.
(gdb) p *t
$40 = {head = 0x0, next = {tqe_next = 0x1c68c40 <rte_fib6_tailq>, tqe_prev = 0x1c67108 <rte_swx_ctl_pipeline_tailq+8>},
  name = "RTE_FIB", '\000' <repeats 24 times>}

I created 2 - 1G hugepages per CPU socket for each test case listed above.

[root@localhost ~]# /opt/dpdk/dpdk-hugepages.py -s
Node Pages Size Total
0    2     1Gb    2Gb
1    2     1Gb    2Gb


The dpdk-simple_mp execution output is shown below:

How do I resolve this issue?
