Neat example. Looks good overall, I just have a few questions.

Any reason not to use 5 here? That would remove a few zeroes from the profiles[] initializers.

I'm wondering if this and the other printfs in this function should be rte_panics? These seem like fatal errors.

What does '1' refer to here? Perhaps it should be: rte_panic("failed to map lcore %d to %s\n", i + core_off, services[s].name);
