This patch series is an attempt to add how to guide for commonly seen
issues in various application scenario. It also tries to suggest a step
by step guide on how to debug and troubleshoot with available stats and
counters.

Motivation
==========
DPDK allows to build application on top of custom off the shelf
components for user scenarios that are modelled with single or multi stage.
Each module interacts with PMD or rings with either software or hardware
offloads.

Identify the cause of issue or performance issues will be tedious and time
consuming. The how to guide is an effort to consolidate such scenarios with
step by step focus to debug and troubleshoot.

Status
======
Reviews and changes accommodated. ACK received and updated.

Future
======
1. Suggestion on vlan filters - Shreyansh Jain

Change Log
==========
