Hi,

for testing NIC functionality, the "testpmd" app is what is used, and it already
contains support for existing flow director functionality. Should the testing
functionality not be included there?

Note: that's not to say we don't need a simple example app as well, for 
demonstrating how to use flow director, but at minimum for nic features we
generally need to have testpmd support.

Can this patchset perhaps be changed to include some testpmd support, and maybe
have any example apps as a separate set?

Regards,
