I think it would better to place IA specific code into a separate fnction
(and probably into a separate .h file).
BTW, just curious what % of improvement it gives?

If we are going to the trouble of moving the code out of the .c into a .h then I suggest it be placed into the rte_ethdev headers for everyone to use.

OK, I will think about how to rework this.

So far , the only server I can test is a 1.6GHz Broadwell server with 2 ports on 1 i40e 25G.
The macswap performance is increase from 16.8mpps to 20mpps (about 19% improvement)

I need to add a notice here, I found previous test is running on CPU from remote socket.
For the test on CPU from local socket on the same server, actually the mac swap performance is improved from 23.34 to 26.36, its about 12.9% increase, but still considerable.

it's a good idea, based on my experience I can get more than 4% increase by batch with 4,
it can reach 27.46mpps, so now its 17.7% increase, I will send patch later, please help to polish:)

I was playing around with these mask values and I was not able to make it work as I expected.
I ended up with different values in the mask.
_mm_set_epi8(15, 14, 13, 12, 5, 4, 3, 2, 1, 0, 11, 10, 9, 8, 7, 6);
After dumping the memory for a large number of tests this one seems correct, can you verify your mask is correct?

Sorry, I do not know why I thought the code was not the same, but your example is correct my mistake.
