+/**
+ * Create an empty mempool
+ *
+ * The mempool is allocated and initialized, but it is not populated: no
+ * memory is allocated for the mempool elements. The user has to call
+ * rte_mempool_populate_*() or to add memory chunks to the pool. Once
+ * populated, the user may also want to initialize each object with
+ * rte_mempool_obj_iter().
+ *
+ * @param name
+ * The name of the mempool.
+ * @param n
+ * The maximum number of elements that can be added in the mempool.
+ * 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 elt_size
+ * The size of each element.
+ * @param cache_size
+ * Size of the cache. See rte_mempool_create() for details.
+ * @param private_data_size
+ * The size of the private data appended after the mempool
+ * structure. This is useful for storing some private data after the
+ * mempool structure, as is done for rte_mbuf_pool for example.
+ * @param socket_id
+ * The *socket_id* argument is the socket identifier in the case of
+ * NUMA. The value can be *SOCKET_ID_ANY* if there is no NUMA
+ * constraint for the reserved zone.
+ * @param flags
+ * Flags controlling the behavior of the mempool. See
+ * rte_mempool_create() for details.
+ * @return
+ * The pointer to the new allocated mempool, on success. NULL on error
+ * with rte_errno set appropriately. See rte_mempool_create() for details.
