From: Reshma Pattan <reshma.pat...@intel.com>

        *Sample application consists of RX, Worker and TX threads.
        *RX thread marks the seqn field of mbufs upon receiving mbufs from 
driver.
        Marked mbufs will be enqueued in multi consumer ring.
        *Worker threads will dequeue mbufs from multi consumer ring and performs
        XOR on input port value of mbufs. Operated mbufs will be enqueued to 
another ring for TX.
        *TX thread will dequeue the mbufs from ring and hand it over to reorder 
lib for reordering
        before sending them out.
