Is anyone using this combination? How can we address the open question of what exactly does sysctl -n vm.ndomains return on a Power9 FreeBSD system? Or should we just leave it as is? Or maybe add 1 to the output (as we do in other cases)?
Not supported within IBM, but you can buy OpenPOWER boxes from 3rd parties such as Raptor Computing Systems so there may be customers using DPDK on POWER with FreeBSD that I don't track. Adding Piotr Kubaj who has commented on POWER/FreeBSD issues in this past.
