I have faced the same issue. For some commands this value is still too
low. For example, RETA update can not be used, the command line limits
he configuration to 34 entries.
See http://dpdk.org/ml/archives/dev/2015-October/024681.html
and particularly
http://dpdk.org/ml/archives/dev/2015-October/024682.html
It was too late to announce an ABI change so we left out the cmdline
size update.
Olivier, Thomas, what do you think about this? It seems this is really
blocking.
