Subject: [dpdk-dev] [dpdk-next-net] [PATCH] net/af_packet: fix docs guide
Date: Tue, 18 Dec 2018 09:10:37 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20181218071037.7762-1-ramirose@gmail.com> (raw)
The framecnt option represents a counter (integer) that does not
reflect size. It is somewhat parallel in this sense to the framecount
member of pkt_rx_queue/pkt_tx_queue (or tp_frame_nr in tpacket_req).
This patch removes the size indicator of bytes ("B") from framecnt in
the af_packet guide.
Fixes: c8dba1ee6cde ("doc: add af_packet PMD guide")
