I see. The current modification has rolled back this behavior.
dcb_fwd_config_setup() will call rte_eth_dev_get_dcb_info() at first to
get the dcb info first.
The segment fault happens because rte_eth_dev_get_dcb_info() get the
wrong info based on old queue numbers (new queue number is small).

Yes! Currently, calling dev_configure at first in
dcb_fwd_config_setup() is to update tc and queue mapping because of the
change of queue number, so that testpmd can get valid the dcb info by
rte_eth_dev_get_dcb_info().
For ixgbe, The fixed mapping means for maximum queue numbers for example
128 queues. Each queue and tc mapping is fixed to fill to hw. Fixed
values. It's just you enable which queues or not.
You can change queue number as you want. In dev_start stage, tc will
actually take effect. get_dcb_info() only needs rx_adv_conf.dcb_rx_conf
which info is included in dev_conf.
So for ixgbe, you only need to call dev_configure to update the new
dcb_rx_conf for get_dcb_info().

The mapping for i40e is really updated in dev_configure. However, if the
tc_map in i40e_vsi_config_tc() does not change, it seems that the
mapping will not be updated.
Namely, This mapping can not be remodified due to queue count changes.
Maybe it is a bug for i40e.
I think this suggestion is reasonable. It's just that I think ixgbe and
i40e may have the above issues.
