Hi Guduri,

This looks like a genuine bug-fix - thanks for looking into it and providing a patch. Typically, DPDK tries to fix the unit-tests and a bug at the same time - this ensures that the unit tests continue to pass at every test. So, patch 2/2 of this series can be merged into this patch, and include both Fixes: lines.

Secondly, does this patchset apply to the current dpdk (17.08), or to the future service-cores patches? If it doesn't apply cleanly on the future patches, it is probably better to A) include it in that patchset, or B) rebase this fix patch onto the service cores patches.

Hope that makes sense, and let me know if you'd prefer A) or B) above. Thanks, -Harry
