Make sense, I think. I really want to avoid affecting the existing
applications.

I think that implementing echo requests to find a dead datapath is
great. But disabling the feature by default is better (safer). I would
not be so surprised if there are some broken switches which don't
reply to echo requests.

Why we need semaphore for getting from /putting to a queue?
