The "testpmd" application is not intended to supply this kind of information, and more globally to behave as a Traffic Generator. It has been intentionally designed to forward received packets using pre-configured port relationships, and it was assumed that all network traffic variables (packet size, throughput, test duration) would be performed by true Traffic Generators such as IXIAs for instance.
