Subject: [PATCH] doc: fix description of maximum rx queues per lcore option
Date: Tue, 13 Jun 2023 09:15:01 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20230613161501.66990-1-stephen@networkplumber.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20190507064948.34567-1-vipin.varghese@intel.com>

Several commands have a -q option but the description in
the documentation was unclear. It is the upper limit on
the number of queues per lcore.
