[dpdk-dev] [PATCH] Add external parser support for unknown commands.

[Keith Wiles]

Allow for a external parser to handle the command line if the
command is not found and the developer has called the routine
int cmdline_set_external_parser(struct cmdline * cl,
                                cmdline_external_parser_t parser);
function to set the function pointer.

The function for the external parser function should return 
CMDLINE_PARSE_NOMATCH
if not able to match the command requested or zero is handled.

Prototype of external routine:
int (*cmdline_external_parser_t)(struct cmdline * cl, const char * buy);
