Hi Keith,
Thanks for that. It is a very good addition.
However, there is one do build warning:
$ make doc-guides-html
sphinx processing guides-html...
/work/dpdk_docs/doc/guides/faq/faq.rst:58: WARNING: Title underline too short.
If I execute "l2fwd -l 0-3 -m 64 -n 3 -- -p 3", I get the following output, indicating that there are no socket 0 hugepages to allocate the mbuf and ring structures to?
