Discussion for DPDK API support into Suricata

@vjulien

please work with our git master, as we’ll not consider such a large feature for our 4.1 or 5.0 stable branches.

Hi Victor, I am only focusing to add to current development branch and not back porting to 4.1 or 5.0 stable.

Do you think it is possible to have a reasonably generic way of supporting DPDK? I’ve seem multiple attempts and all of them were for quite specific scenario’s.

The split mode can help us to achieve the same. This would be the minimalistic DPDK code and library dependency.
