Agree, not a good example, will change it.

Agree, the functionality can be extended to other modes as well. I added these
2 modes as I found the use cases for these.

I think the call back function makes it difficult to use the API. The call back
function would be a wrapper around another function or API which will have its
own arguments. Now all those parameters have to passed using the 'udata'. For
ex: in the 2nd example that I provided earlier, the user has to create a
wrapper around 'rte_eth_rx_burst' API and then provide the parameters to
'rte_eth_rx_burst' through 'udata'. 'udata' would need a structure definition
as well.

Other modes can be supported with the method used in this patch as well. If you
see a need, I can add them.
IMO, only issue with exposing sg_data is ABI compatibility in the future. I
think, we can align the 'struct rte_ring_sg_data' to cache line boundary and it
should provide ability to extend it in the future without affecting the ABI
compatibility.

Ok, I will check this out.
