+1 to this suggestion.

I prefer this done in a more generic way, see below.

This should be generalized to support any named field in the rte_lcore_usage structure.

The general path could be: /eal/lcore/usage

With optional parameter lcore_id. This should return one object (or an array of such objects, if lcore_id is not given) with all usage fields and their values, e.g.:

{
"lcore_id": 7,
"total_cycles": 1234,
"usage_cycles": 567
}


The paths to support the array-optimized feature you are requesting could be: /eal/lcores/usage/total_cycles and /eal/lcores/usage/usage_cycles.

These paths should return the arrays as suggested. I only request that you change "/lcore" to plural "/lcores" and add "/usage" to the path before the field name in the usage table.

Alternatively, you could add a path /eal/lcores/usage_array, taking the field names as parameters and outputting multiple arrays like this:

/eal/lcores/usage_array,total_cycles,usage_cycles

{
"total_cycles": [1234, 1234, 1234],
"usage_cycles": [567, 678, 789]
}

But I don't know if this breaks with DPDK's standard REST interface. It would be easier if we had decided on something like OData, instead of inventing our own.
