Originally, source ports in librte_port is an input port used as packet generator. Similar to Linux kernel /dev/zero character device, it generates null packets. This patch adds optional PCAP file support to source port: instead of sending NULL packets, the source port generates packets copied from a PCAP file. To increase the performance, the packets in the file are loaded to memory initially, and copied to mbufs in circular manner. Users can enable or disable this feature by setting CONFIG_RTE_PORT_PCAP compiler option "y" or "n".
