It may cause PMDs supporting 'deferred_start' but not supporting 'rte_eth_tx_queue_info_get' or 'rte_eth_rx_queue_info_get' takes no effect when set 'deferred_start' on. A better way is to check when updating the queue state. If this is the case, keep the testpmd state to the original value so that the original behavior is not changed. > > In commit log, can you please refer to the patch that fixes similar > issue for secondary process [2], that is relevant with this fix, > reference may help to understand this issue better.
