+ * Provides backwards compatibility when updating exported functions.
+ * When a symol is exported from a library to provide an API, it also provides a
+ * calling convention (ABI) that is embodied in its name, return type,
+ * arguments, etc.  On occasion that function may need to change to accommodate
+ * new functionality, behavior, etc.  When that occurs, it is desireable to
+ * allow for backwards compatibility for a time with older binaries that are
+ * dynamically linked to the dpdk.  To support that, the __vsym and
+ * VERSION_SYMBOL macros are created.  They, in conjunction with the
+ * <library>_version.map file for a given library allow for multiple versions of
+ * a symbol to exist in a shared library so that older binaries need not be
+ * immediately recompiled. Their use is outlined in the following example:
+ * Assumptions: DPDK 2.(X) contains a function int foo(char *string)
+ *              DPDK 2.(X+1) needs to change foo to be int foo(int index)
+ *
+ * To accomplish this:
+ * 1) Edit lib/<library>/library_version.map to add a DPDK_2.(X+1) node, in which
+ * foo is exported as a global symbol.
+ *
+ * 2) rename the existing function int foo(char *string) to
+ *     int __vsym foo_v20(char *string)
+ *
+ * 3) Add this macro immediately below the function
+ *     VERSION_SYMBOL(foo, _v20, 2.0);
+ *
+ * 4) Implement a new version of foo.
+ *     char foo(int value, int otherval) { ...}
+ *
+ * 5) Mark the newest version as the default version
+ *     BIND_DEFAULT_SYMBOL(foo, 2.1);
+ *
