Subject: [RFC PATCH 27/44] eal: record service cores in user config struct
Date: Wed, 29 Apr 2026 17:58:19 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260429165845.2136843-28-bruce.richardson@intel.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260429165845.2136843-1-bruce.richardson@intel.com>

The user provided service coremask or service corelist needs to be
recorded in the user config struct, so store it there as a cpuset.
