+ * RTE Table
+ *
+ * This tool is part of the Intel DPDK Packet Framework tool suite and provides
+ * a standard interface to implement different types of lookup tables for data
+ * plane processing.
+ * 
+ * Virtually any search algorithm that can uniquely associate data to a lookup
+ * key can be fitted under this lookup table abstraction. For the flow table
+ * use-case, the lookup key is an n-tuple of packet fields that uniquely
+ * identifies a traffic flow, while data represents actions and action
+ * meta-data associated with the same traffic flow.

+ *   with exactly 64 elements. The implementation is allowed to speculatively
