Hi Luca,

Essentially what I ran into while trying to rebase the series was an
issue with the parser in the OffloadCapability class. The make_parser
function contains an argument called "find_multiple", which will match
all port/queue capabilities/configurations found in testpmd, rather
than just the first instance. This argument is set to True and runs
during test suite execution, but causes an error because one of the
variables sent to from_list() during the parser creation is not a list
of strings (like it's supposed to be) but instead the string "0". I
moved away from the series to work on some other items in the
meantime, but I was thinking it could be an issue with the regex that
is grabbing an extra string. In this instance, the command "show port
0 rx_offload configuration" is sent to testpmd, which prints something
like the following:

testpmd> show port 0 rx_offload configuration
Rx Offloading Configuration of port 0 :
  Port :
  Queue[ 0] :

If I had to guess, the "0" string is coming from the last line, but
again I never finished debugging so just an educated guess. If you run
into the same problem let me know.

Cheers
