Test Pipeline Application
=========================
-The Test Pipeline application illustrates the use of the Intel® DPDK Packet Framework tool suite.
-Its purpose is to demonstrate the performance of single-table Intel® DPDK pipelines.

Overview
--------
* Core A ("RX core") receives traffic from the NIC ports and feeds core B with traffic through SW queues.
-* Core B ("Pipeline core") implements a single-table Intel® DPDK pipeline
+* Core B ("Pipeline core") implements a single-table DPDK pipeline
whose type is selectable through specific command line parameter.
Core B receives traffic from core A through software queues,
processes it according to the actions configured in the table entries that
