Hi Sergio,

> This series introduces the new reorder library along with unit tests,
> sample app and a new entry in the programmers guide describing the library.
>
> The library provides reordering of mbufs based on their sequence number.
>
> As mention in the patch describing the library, one use case is the
> packet distributor.
> The distributor receives packets, assigns them a sequence number and sends
> them to the workers.
> The workers process those packets and return them to the distributor.
> The distributor collects out-of-order packets from the workers and uses
> this library to reorder the packets based on the sequence number they
> were assigned.
>
> v4:
> - add missing version.map and related versioning macros
You forgot to update the MAINTAINERS file.
> v3:
> - fix copyright date
> - add option to sample app to disable reordering
> - add packet ordering sample guide entry
>
> v2:
> - add programmers guide entry describing the library
> - use malloc instead of memzone to allocate memory
> - modify create and init implementation, init takes a reorder buffer as input
> and create reserves memory and call init.
> - update unit tests
>
> Sergio Gonzalez Monroy (5):
