Francis You should read these 2 resources on how DPDK multi process works:
https://doc.dpdk.org/guides/prog_guide/multi_proc_support.html https://doc.dpdk.org/guides/sample_app_ug/multi_process.html and most specifically this one : https://doc.dpdk.org/guides/prog_guide/multi_proc_support.html#multi-process-limitations The delivery of interrupts, such as Ethernet* device link status interrupts, do not work in secondary processes. All interrupts are triggered inside the primary process only. Any application needing interrupt notification in multiple processes should provide its own mechanism to transfer the interrupt information from the primary process to any secondary process that needs the information.
