EAL: probe driver: 8086:10fb rte_ixgbe_pmd EAL: PCI memory mapped at 0x7f18c2a00000 EAL: PCI memory mapped at 0x7f18c2a80000 Segmentation fault (core dumped)
This is introduced by commit: 46bc9d75 ixgbe: fix multi-process support When start primary process with command line: ./app/test/test -n 1 -c ffff -m 64 then start the second one: ./app/test/test -n 1 --proc-type=secondary --file-prefix=rte This segment-fault will occur. Root cause is test app on primary process only starts device, but the queue need initialized by manually command line. So the tx queue is still NULL when secondary process startup.
