This package implements memif faces. See face creation "memif face" section for locator syntax.

The underlying implementation is in package ethport.

In the data plane:

• NDN-DPDK and application must operate its memif interface in opposite roles.
• Each packet is an NDN packet without Ethernet header.
• MEMIF_DESC_FLAG_NEXT may cause stability issue in the RX path. It is currently disabled in the TX path during face creation.
