The "fwd_config_setup()" function does release and apply for memory of forwarding flows, and re-establish these streams when rxq/txq or rxd/txd is changed. The function is also called by "start_packet_forwarding()" when user executes "start" cmd. All changes for rxq/txq or rxd/txd can be updated uniformly when this command is executed. Therefore, it is a little redundant in the "cmd_config_rx_tx_parsed" function.
In addition, the forwarding stream under one TC is configured based on number of queues allocated to TC. And number of queues allocated to TC is updated after calling "rte_eth_dev_configure" again. If the number of queues is reduced after configuring the DCB, and then, release and apply for stream memory, and reinitialize the forwarding stream under the DCB mode based on the old TC information. As a result, null pointer may be accessed.
Like: set nbcore 4 port stop all port config 0 dcb vt off 4 pfc on port start all port stop all port config all rxq 8 port config all txq 8
At the moment, a segmentation fault occurs.
