Hi,

We're seeing something similar to what is described in thread below. Our 
product uses dpdk 17.08. Was there ever a resolution to Souvik's issue?

Thanks...Jim

Hi All,
                  We have a single primary application with multiple secondary 
applications launched on the same cpu core. When the system boots up for the 
first time ,the primary comes up followed by the secondary process everything 
works fine. But in between if I try to restart the secondary processes without 
restart the primary, the secondary process crashes with the below stack trace. 
Any idea what is going wrong out here.

Hi Dey,

Could you try to reproduce the issue with one of the multi-process
examples from DPDK?
Also you could provide some info such as command line options when
running both primary/secondary apps, dpdk version, etc...

The crash you are seeing is a panic, but i don't see *what* is panic'ing, so i cannot diagnose the issue from stack trace alone.

In general, restarting secondary processes during primary's runtime is a supported case, and is indeed the basis for one of our unit tests (granted, most secondary process spinups in our unit tests are supposed to fail, but some will pass), and i have at various points done "secondary process spam" tests firing up tens of thousands of secondaries as well. So, crashes on secondary initialization with valid parameters is certainly not normal behavior.

A more detailed crash log would be good to have.
