The DPDK howto has slowly morphed into a catch all for everything DPDK,
which goes against the original design goal for 'howto' documents [*].
This series attempts to return some sanity to the universe by splitting
this document into many more 'topic' documents. Along the way, we add a
lot of semantic markup, rework some text, and add an overview on
'dpdk'-type ports (the original goal here).
There's a good chance I've made some mistakes in the process and I've
left TODOs for someone to resolve now or at a future date. I welcome
feedback on both of these.
Now to go back to figure how exactly NUMA affinity works for and affects
PMD threads...
[*] 'howto' documents are supposed to be brief, high-level overviews on
a particular group of features, with a focus on the user. They're
not as all-encompassing as a 'tutorial', but not as specific as a
'topic'.
