Hi Mike,
Thanks a lot for the patch.

Well I would first like to know, why we need noisy neighbor for all modes
IMHO, do we need to add code to each mode, if most users don't use it.
Secondly, can't we achieve same behavior by running testpmd instances in
parallel on same NUMA node. Where one testpmd is in noisy mode.
