Hello,

What's the best way to punt L2 packets to the control plane?
If I'm correct, now we have these ways:
- VPP communication library (it works only for TCP and UDP packets)
- a punt through Unix socket (it's only one-way punt)
- also, we can redirect IP packets (but it's not flexible and not working
for L2 packets)

I am wondering because PPPoE plugin punts control packets with just
redirecting it on another interface. But when VPP gets packets back from
the control plane interface - it's just not working (because of mac l3
mismatch).
And to make it worked I had to do some ugly hacks (such as turning on
"device-input" for pppoe-input node on control plane interface [1]).

May be there any other ways to do it?
