Hi I am using dpdk 17.11.1, on a system with > 128 cores. In the startup log, it is displayed that 128 cores are detected.
As I am interested in using lcores beyond 128 for the application, I tried to increase the CONFIG_RTE_MAX_LCORES value in the dpdk/config/common_base file, and recompliled dpdk, but it still detects a max of 128 cores. I need to use higher numbered cores because the NIC card is plugged on to CPU 6 so I want to use the cores local to CPU6 for better performance. Please let me how the config_rte_max_lcore can be increased, and is there any other change that needs to be made ? Thanks and Regards Ramneek
