+In DPDK multprocess, all operations done by the secondary process on the hardware are invalid.

+TestCase : test_multiprocess_port_stop
+======================================
+Subcase 1: secondary_port_stop
+------------------------------
+test steps
+~~~~~~~~~~
+
+1. Launch the app ``testpmd``, start primary process and secondary process with the following arguments::
+
+   ./dpdk-testpmd -l 1,2 --proc-type=auto -a 0000:17:00.0  --log-level=ice,7 -- -i --rxq=8 --txq=8  --num-procs=2 --proc-id=0
+   ./dpdk-testpmd -l 3,4 --proc-type=auto -a 0000:17:00.0  --log-level=ice,7 -- -i --rxq=8 --txq=8  --num-procs=2 --proc-id=1
+
+2. stop fwd in secondary process and start fwd in primary process::
+
+    secondary process:
+      testpmd> port stop 0
+
+    primary process:
+      testpmd> set fwd rxonly
+      testpmd> set verbose 1
+      testpmd> start
+
+3. send 1 packet from scapy::
+
+    >>> sendp([Ether(dst="B4:96:91:BB:64:54", src="52:00:00:00:00:00")/IP()/Raw(load="P"*20)], iface="ens6")
