[ovs-dev] [PATCH ovs v4] dpctl-netdev: Add the option 'pmd' for dump-flows

[xiangxia.m.yue at gmail.com]

From: Tonghao Zhang <xiangxia.m.yue at gmail.com>

"ovs-appctl dpctl/dump-flows" added the option
"pmd" which allow user to dump pmd specified.

That option is useful to dump rules of pmd
when we have a large number of rules in dp.

    - DPDK:
      * Removed support for vhost-user dequeue zero-copy.
+   - Userspace datapath:
+     * Add the 'pmd' option to "ovs-appctl dpctl/dump-flows", which
+       restricts a flow dump to a single PMD thread if set.
    - The environment variable OVS_UNBOUND_CONF, if set, is now used
      as the DNS resolver's (unbound) configuration file.
