For one application we could add a new file, but if we are to enable 
event mode with multiple applications, wouldn't this be duplication of 
lot of code? Considering that I haven't added the required parsing 
routines, the code additions in one application to make it eventdriven 
would be huge.

I do agree that making this as a library poses its own challenges, but 
do you have something better in mind? Another option we can think of is 
making all these changes part of some common headers and then each 
application can include and start using these functions. I'm fine with 
any approach, but we need to consider making at-least l3fwd & 
ipsec-secgw also event driven.

Thanks,
Anoob
