This new app makes use of the librte_reorder library.
It requires at least 3 lcores for RX, Workers (1 or more) and TX threads.
Communication between RX-Workers and Workers-TX is done by using rings.
The flow of mbufs is the following:
* RX thread gets mbufs from driver, set sequence number and enqueue
them in ring.
* Workers dequeue mbufs from ring, do some 'work' and enqueue mbufs in
ring.
* TX dequeue mbufs from ring, inserts them in reorder buffer, drains
mbufs from reorder and sends them to the driver.
