[Anoob] Static has to be removed from all the above vars. Will fix in the next version.

[Anoob] That would make the design a bit different from regular l2fwd. Even in l2fwd, all these variable are present. Be it global or static.

Another option is to have the vars declared as extern in the l2fwd_worker.c and remove the additions in the header. If that approach is fine, we can keep the changes between l2fwd & l2fwd-event minimal. Please share your thoughts on which approach would be better.
