Commit Message
From: Lukasz Bartosik <lbartosik@marvell.com>
Add command line option -s which can be used to configure number
of buffers in a pool. Default number of buffers is 8192.

I still think it is not a good idea to change default number of mbufs.
8K is not that much: 1 core with 4 ports, or 1 port over 4 cores,
and user might start to see unexpected failures.
Now you added an option to allow user define number of mbufs in the app,
which is a good thing, but default one I think should remain the same
(to avoid any unexpected failures).

[Anoob] No disagreement. I had submitted this patch as is since I had some other ideas which could solve this better. I had mentioned this in the cover-letter.
Deferred to v3:
* The final patch updates the hardcoded number of buffers in a pool.
Also, there was a discussion on the update of number of qp. Both the
above can be handled properly, if we can remove the logic which limits
one core to only use one crypto qp. If we can allow one qp per
lcore_param, every eth queue can have it's own crypto qp and that would
solve the requirements with OCTEON TX2 inline ipsec support as well.
http://patches.dpdk.org/patch/64408/
The above patch requires a minor rework and I would be submitting a v2 soon. But the idea would be same. Please take a look at it and share your thoughts. Please do wait for v2 before running on h/w, though 😊.
