Update in documentation - in INSTALL file
Update in the description for the default configuration in the Configuration and Tuning section. A correction is made in the maximum number of processes. As for POLICY 0, the maximum number of processes will be always 16 regardless of number of sockets! i.e. for POLICY = 0, each process gets 1 VF from each PF; for 1S we have 16 VFs * 4 PFs = 64 VFs; one process can take 4 VF so a maximum of 16 (64 / 4) number of processes are possible; for 2S we have 16 VFs * 8 PFs = 128 VF; so a maximum of 16 (128 / 8) number of processes are possible. Correction is made based on the details above. Signed-off-by: Firos Sadarul <[email protected]>
