I have verified that adding just a single tap device works with testpmd. But as soon as I try more than one tap device, I would get a coredump, e.g.: root@ ?localhost :~# testpmd -c f -n 4 --socket-mem 512 --vdev=net_tap ?,iface=tap0? --vdev=net_tap ?,iface=tap1? -- -i EAL: Detected 16 lcore(s)

Keith, This won't build when integrated with v16.11. The register macro prefix has been renamed. a v10 is needed. diff --git a/drivers/net/tap/rte_eth_tap.c b/drivers/net/tap/rte_eth_tap.c index 7f303db..297d4b6 100644 --- a/drivers/net/tap/rte_eth_tap.c +++ b/drivers/net/tap/rte_eth_tap.c @@
