Let me ask a couple of questions about this.
Why does DPDK need to have its own definitions of IPv4 and IPv6 addresses?
The structures in_addr and in6_addr exist on Linux, BSD, and Windows.
It creates lots of code reimplementation (see inet_ntop etc).
What advantage is there to having our own definitions?
