I was going to add this to the real patch:
The new API is to reduce some of the clutter in the applications. Most of
the applications need to do the following:
int ret = rte_eal_init(argc, argv);
if ( ret < 0 )
rte_exit(EXIT_FAILURE, "rte_eal_init: failed!");
argc -= ret;
argv += ret;
ret = parse_args(argc, argv);
if ( ret < 0 )
rte_exit(EXIT_FAILURE, "parse_args:failed!");
With this new API:
int ret = rte_eal_init_parse(argc, argv, parse_args);
if ( ret < 0 )
rte_exit(EXIT_FAILURE, "rte_eal_init_parse: Failed!");
