Thanks. I request to check top-level semantics in specification header
files as the first step.
Other next-level details, we can change at any time.
If you planning for any time frame, do let me know, so that we can
decide when to start
the implementation.

Planning to emulation DWA accelerator functional model as a separate
DPDK process in SW case.
Therefore memif is the ideal choice as it supports zero-copy of the
data as well.
