> > > > * The workers take the packets in turn, and determine the output port

> > > > port id.
> > > > * The RX thread takes the returned packets from the workers and enqueue
> > > > those packets into an rte_ring structure.
> > > > * A TX thread pulls the packets off the rte_ring structure and then
> > > > sends each packet out the output port specified previously by the
> > > > worker
> > > > * Command-line option support provided only for portmask.

> > > > v5 change:
> > > > * Handled gracefull shutdown of rx and tx threads upon SIGINT.

> > > > v7 change:
> > > > * passing NULL as rxconf/txconf parameter for rx/tx queue setup
