You're not answering my questions. Why are you changing the behavior of testpmd? Your change will make testpmd stay dcb mode once set dcb mode and can't go back to normal mode. If users want to go back to normal mode, he/she has to restart the whole testpmd.
Yes. Testpmd and PMD driver are both in dcb mode after dcb info is configured. In my opinion, the 'dcb_test' flag can't be clear to go back to normal mode after stopping port and then starting port. Because PMD driver is still dcb mode. If users want to go back it, users should disable dcb mode and enable RSS or other mode.
It worked as you can set dcb mode and start port. After stopping port, if you still want dcb mode, you need to set dcb mode command again. But at least the old way won't break anything. @Yigit, Ferruh Not sure which behavior is better, what do you think?
And @oulijun can you just answer all comments in one thread?
After stopping port, the 'dcb_test' flag is clear. At this moment, the dcb configuration in testpmd has not be changed. users may not understand why the DCB mode needs to be reconfigured.
