[dpdk-dev] [PATCH v5 2/2] app/pdump: enhance to support multi-core capture

[Vipin Varghese <vipin.varghese@intel.com>]

Add option --multi, to enhance pdump application to allow capture
on unique cores for each --pdump option. If option --multi is ignored
the default capture occurs on single core for all --pdump options.

+The ``--multi`` command line option is optional argument. If passed, capture

 The ``--pdump`` command line option is mandatory and it takes various sub arguments which are described in
 below section.
