This patch adds multi-process support for testpmd.
The test cmd example as follows:
the primary cmd:
./dpdk-testpmd -a xxx --proc-type=auto -l 0-1 -- -i \
--rxq=4 --txq=4 --num-procs=2 --proc-id=0

the secondary cmd:
./dpdk-testpmd -a xxx --proc-type=auto -l 2-3 -- -i \
--rxq=4 --txq=4 --num-procs=2 --proc-id=1


Hi Connor,

Please find a few minor comments below, since they are minor issues please feel free to keep the existing acks in next version.


Reminder of this patch, waiting for minor updates, it would be good to have it before -rc1, so that the change can be tested thoroughly.

Meanwhile I have concern/question on long term testing of the feature. It is possible to break the multi-process support unintentionally and not recognize it. How can we continually verify the feature?

Are you using DTS?
Does it make sense to add a testcase into dts to test testpmd multi-process support so that it is verified on each release?
