+/**
+ * Create a mbuf pool.
+ *
+ * This function creates and initializes a packet mbuf pool. It is
+ * a wrapper to rte_mempool_create() with the proper packet constructor
+ * and mempool constructor.
+ *
+ * @param name
+ * The name of the mbuf pool.
+ * @param n
+ * The number of elements in the mbuf pool. The optimum size (in terms
+ * of memory usage) for a mempool is when n is a power of two minus one:
+ * n = (2^q - 1).
+ * @param cache_size
+ * Size of the per-core object cache. See rte_mempool_create() for
+ * details.
+ * @param priv_size
+ * Size of application private are between the rte_mbuf structure
+ * and the data buffer.
+ * @param data_room_size
+ * Size of data buffer in each mbuf, including RTE_PKTMBUF_HEADROOM.
+ * @param socket_id
+ * The socket identifier where the memory should be allocated. The
+ * value can be *SOCKET_ID_ANY* if there is no NUMA constraint for the
+ * reserved zone.
+ * @return
+ * The pointer to the new allocated mempool, on success. NULL on error
+ * with rte_errno set appropriately. Possible rte_errno values include:
+ * - E_RTE_NO_CONFIG - function could not get pointer to rte_config structure
+ * - E_RTE_SECONDARY - function was called from a secondary process instance
+ * - EINVAL - cache size provided is too large
+ * - ENOSPC - the maximum number of memzones has already been allocated
+ * - EEXIST - a memzone with the same name already exists
+ * - ENOMEM - no appropriate memory area found in which to create memzone
