Most operations in testpmd that need to update the forwarding streams in testpmd call fwd_config_setup(). In some scenarios, eg, dev_configure is called again, the forwarding streams may not be updated. As a result, the actual forwarding streams cannot be queried by "show config fwd" cmd.
I don't agree on this. Fwd config should be only changed after the user change something like nb-cores, queue number, eth-peer in non-dcb mode. These are already done in those commands.
You should do fwd_config_setup at the end of cmd_config_dcb_parsed(), I agree on this. But doing it in start port seems to do redundant times of fwd_setup. It's not really needed.
The procedure is as follows: set nbcore 4 port stop all port config 0 dcb vt off 4 pfc on port start all show config fwd
