There is nothing that says anything about PMD and loading a single
module. However, the Getting Started Guide refers to "dymanic kernel
tweaks" citing "modules", all in a plural form:
/"Running an Intel®DPDK application requires some kernel configuration
customization (done at build time) and some dynamic kernel tweaks
(modules, procfs)./"
A list of strings can be implemented using a "null terminated array", as
suggested in my review. So yes, it could be a good solution.
