+Stack Library
+=============
+
+DPDK's stack library provides an API for configuration and use of a bounded stack of
+pointers.
+
+The stack library provides the following basic operations:
+
+*  Create a uniquely named stack of a user-specified size and using a user-specified socket.
+
+*  Push and pop a burst of one or more stack objects (pointers). These function are multi-threading safe.
+
+*  Free a previously created stack.
+
+*  Lookup a pointer to a stack by its name.
+
+*  Query a stack's current depth and number of free entries.
+
+Implementation
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+
+The stack consists of a contiguous array of pointers, a current index, and a
+spinlock. Accesses to the stack are made multi-thread safe by the spinlock.
