The patch series adds a how-to guide for debugging and troubleshooting tips.

Motivation
==========

DPDK proc-info tool is been enhanced to accommodate the debug information for
the port, traffic manager crypto, ring and mempool contents. With these
additional information, it becomes easy to analyze issues and performance
variance.

But applications are designed based on the target platform, workload, poll mode
drivers, and multi-process. This raises variance in debugging and collecting
data. Hence attempt of patch series is identified such symptoms and share step
by step guide to cover the cases.

Not all possible cases could be covered in a single attempt. But with feedback
and support from the community, this can be expanded.
