2017-01-13testpmd_pvp: Adds pkt_fwd to allow pvp topology testingChristian Trautman2-2/+53
Requires DPDK 16.11 or greater to support vdev flags. Initial support for TestPMD to support guests. Allows vsperf to execute TestPMD as a switch for pvp test scenarios. Can be increased in functionality later to support multiple guest configs.

In the past, only a few configuration parameters could be modified via --test-params CLI argument and it was not easy to find out their complete list. This patch adds support for generic modification of any configuration parameter via CLI argument --test-params or by "Parameters" section of testcase definition. Thus it is possible to customize a vsperf configuration environment per testcase or for each vsperf execution. Old CLI parameters duration, pkt_sizes, rfc2544_tests and rfc2889_trials were renamed to TRAFFICGEN_DURATION, TRAFFICGEN_PKT_SIZES, TRAFFICGEN_RFC2544_TESTS and TRAFFICGEN_RFC2889_TRIALS to be consistent with other configuration parameters.
