the same platform depending on the particular combination of the ethdev and
-the event device. For SW based packet transfer, if the mbuf does not have a
-timestamp set, the adapter adds a timestamp to the mbuf using

The Event Ethernet Rx Adapter library is intended for the application code to
configure both transfer mechanisms using a common API. A capability API allows
received on a polled Rx queue. The interrupt thread is affinitized to the same
CPUs as the lcores of the Rx adapter service function, if the Rx adapter
service function has not been mapped to any lcores, the interrupt thread
