Wed Aug 16 10:09:16 CEST 2017


Yulong, 
Please split test plan and test suite into two patches, it will be easier for review. 
And some comments are also inline.

Thanks,
Marvin

Not sure why specify igb_uio as the driver, this case won't support vfio-pci?

In this suite, look like only Fortville is supported. If this is ture, please add check in set_up_all function.

Not every platform has 6 lcores, please raise error if not enough cores for testing.

If support vfio-pci, the logic is better to check whether driver name is "default".
