Using dpdk-pmdinfo with the '-r' flag does not produce a json output as
documented. Instead, the python representation of the json object is
shown, which is nearly the same, but cannot be properly parsed by a json
parser.
python repr (before):
{u'pci_ids': [[5549, 1968, 65535, 65535]], u'name': u'vmxnet3'}
json (after):
{"pci_ids": [[5549, 1968, 65535, 65535]], "name": "vmxnet3"}

The following tools may be installed system-wide.
It may be cleaner and more convenient to find them with the same
dpdk- prefix (especially for autocompletion).
Moreover, the script dpdk_nic_bind.py deserves a new name because it is
not restricted to NICs and can be used for e.g. crypto.
These files are renamed:
pmdinfogen -> dpdk-pmdinfogen
pmdinfo.py -> dpdk-pmdinfo.py
dpdk_pdump -> dpdk-pdump
dpdk_proc_info -> dpdk-procinfo
dpdk_nic_bind.py -> dpdk-devbind.py
setup.sh -> dpdk-setup.sh
The tools pmdinfogen, pmdinfo.py and dpdk_pdump are new in 16.07.
The scripts dpdk_nic_bind.py and setup.sh may have been used with
previous releases by end users. That's why a symbolic link still
provide the old name in the installed tools directory.
