[PATCH v3] app/testpmd: support specify TCs when DCB forward

Thu Nov 6 13:49:59 CET 2025


This commit supports specify TCs when DCB forwarding, the command:

  set dcb fwd_tc (tc_mask)

The background of this command: only some TCs are expected to generate
traffic when the DCB function is tested based on txonly forwarding, we
could use this command to specify TCs to be used.

Signed-off-by: Chengwen Feng <fengchengwen at huawei.com>
---
Depends-on: series-2682 ("two bugfix for testpmd DCB")
---
v3: use new way to impl and fix comment from Stephen.
v2: introduce pause/resume lcore's forwarding.
