[dpdk-users] only one vdev net_af_xdp being recognized

[Jags N]

Hi,

Continuing on my previous email,

https://doc.dpdk.org/guides/rel_notes/release_19_08.html  release not says
- Added multi-queue support to allow one af_xdp vdev with multiple netdev
queues

Does it in anyway imply only one af_xdp vdev is supported as of now, and
more than one af_xdp vdev may not be recognized ?

Regards,
Jags
