It is simply a mask used to enable or disable ports in DPDK.
For example:
If DPDK owns two ports, -p 0x03 means all two ports are enabled.
If DPDK owns four ports, -p 0x03 means only port 0 and 1 are enabled,
port 2 and 3 are unable to use. If you want to enable all ports, you
should use -p 0x0f

0x03 is 0b11, 0x0f is 0b1111

Thanks,
Michael
