For the moment I have to get x86 tests up and running in a proper way
first before I think doing tests on power on minicloud or similar - so
I'd have to rely on you but would try to guide the bit I can.

>cComment #6, I will do that. Can I forward the one you attached here?
(And I take it is on the source available on PPA)

Yes you can forward that, but you might  or not need to rebase it to match dpdk 
git's head.
That particular part is unchanged from what you submitted.

All I can tell you at the moment is that I'm not seeing it fail on any of my 
x86 systems.
This is just what I meant that the actual architecture exploitation will need 
commitment and Test/Fix from IBM in #11.

I used debian packaging, I tried and used testpmd built there. Not sure
if this is correct:

EAL: invalid coremask

Long story short, a coremask of 7 should make no sense for just two detected 
cores.
But I wonder if detecting only two cores is the first error to begin with.
