[dpdk-dev] [PATCH v2 0/3] next-eventdev: evendev pipeline sample app

[David Hunt <david.hunt@intel.com>]

This patchset introduces a sample application that demonstrates
a pipeline model for packet processing. Running this sample app
with 17.05-rc2 or later is recommended.

Changes in patch v2:
  * Re-work based on comments on mailing list. No major functional changes.
  * Checkpatch cleanup of a couple of typos

The sample app itself allows configuration of various pipelines using
command line arguments. Parameters like number of stages, number of
worker cores, which cores are assigned to specific tasks, and work-
cycles per-stage in the pipeline can be configured.

Documentation for eventdev is added for the programmers guide and
sample app user guide, providing sample commands to run the app with,
and expected output.

The sample app is presented here as an RFC to the next-eventdev tree
to work towards having eventdev PMD generic sample applications.
