 Packet Distributor Library
 ==========================

+The DPDK Packet Distributor library is a library designed to be used for dynamic load balancing of traffic
 while supporting single packet at a time operation.
 When using this library, the logical cores in use are to be considered in two roles: firstly a distributor lcore,
 which is responsible for load balancing or distributing packets,
 and a set of worker lcores which are responsible for receiving the packets from the distributor and operating on them.
 The model of operation is shown in the diagram below.

+   Packet Distributor mode of operation
+
+There are two modes of operation of the API in the distributor library,
+one which sends one packet at a time to workers using 32-bits for flow_id,
+and an optimized mode which sends bursts of up to 8 packets at a time to workers, using 15 bits of flow_id.
+The mode is selected by the type field in the ``rte_distributor_create()`` function.
