From: Wenwu Ma Date: Fri, 4 Mar 2022 16:24:24 +0000 (+0000) Subject: examples/vhost: fix launch with physical port X-Git-Url: http://git.droids-corp.org/?a=commitdiff_plain;ds=sidebyside;h=917229c24e871bbc3225a0227eb3f0faaa7aaa69;p=dpdk.git examples/vhost: fix launch with physical port dpdk-vhost will fail to launch with a 40G i40e port because there are not enough mbufs. This patch adds a new option --total-num-mbufs, through which the user can set larger mbuf pool to avoid this problem.
