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

+Testpmd Support Multi Process Command-line Options
+--------------------------------------------------
+
+The following are the command-line options for the testpmd applications(support
+multi process).They must be separated from the EAL options, shown in the 
previous
+section, with a ``--`` separator:
+
+.. code-block:: console
+
+       primary process:
+       sudo ./dpdk-testpmd -a xxx --proc-type=auto -l 0-1 -- -i --rxq=4 
--txq=4 \
+        --num-procs=2 --proc-id=0
+
+       secondary process:
+       sudo ./dpdk-testpmd -a xxx --proc-type=auto -l 2-3 -- -i --rxq=4 
--txq=4 \
+        --num-procs=2 --proc-id=1
+
+The command line options are:
+
+*   ``--rxq=N``
+
+    Set the number of Rx queues per port to N. N is the sum of queues used by 
primary
+    and secondary process. Primary process and secondary process should have 
separate
+    queues, and each should occupy at least one queue. Where N should be the 
multiple
+    of number of processes.
+
+*   ``--txq=N``
+
+    Set the number of Tx queues per port to N. N is the sum of queues used by 
primary
+    and secondary process. Primary process and secondary process should have 
separate
+    queues, and each should occupy at least one queue. Where N should be the 
multiple
+    of number of processes.
+
+*   ``--num-procs=N``
+
+    The number of processes which will be used.
+
+*   ``--proc-id=id``
+
+    The id of the current process (id < num-procs). id should be different in 
primary
+    process and secondary process.
+
+Calculation rule for queue:
+All queues are allocated to different processes based on proc_num and proc_id.
+Calculation rule for the Testpmd to allocate queues to each process:
+start(queue start id) = proc_id * nb_q / num_procs;
+end(queue end id) = start + nb_q / num_procs;
+
+For example, if supports 4 txq and rxq
+the 0~1 for primary process
+the 2~3 for secondary process
+
+The number of rings should be a multiple of the number of processes. If not,
+redundant queues will exist after queues are allocated to processes. After RSS 
is
+enabled, packet loss occurs when traffic is sent to all processes at the same 
time.
+Some traffic enters redundant queues and cannot be forwarded.
+
+Most dev ops is supported in primary and secondary process. While secondary 
process
+is not permitted to allocate or release shared memory, so some ops are not 
supported
+as follows:
+``dev_configure``
+``dev_start``
+``dev_stop``
+``rx_queue_setup``
+``tx_queue_setup``
+``rx_queue_release``
+``tx_queue_release``
+
+So, any command from testpmd which calls those APIs will not be supported in 
secondary
+process, like:
+``port config all rxq|txq|rxd|txd <value>``
+``port config <port_id> rx_offload xxx on/off ``
+``port config <port_id> tx_offload xxx on/off``
+etc.
+
+RTE_FLOW supported, it applies only on its own process on SW side, but all on 
HW size.
+stats supported, stats will not change when one quit and start, As they share 
the same
+buffer to store the stats. Flow rules are maintained in process level: primary 
and secondary
+has its own flow list(but one flow list in HW). The two can see all the 
queues, so setting
+the flow rules for the other is OK. Of course, io(receive or transmit packets) 
in the queue
+from others is not permitted.
+
+RSS supported, Primary process and secondary process has separate queues to 
use, RSS
+will work in their own queues whether primary and secondary process.
