Can we use the following change for monitoring ESN?
http://patches.dpdk.org/project/dpdk/patch/1629207767-262-2-git-send-email-ano...@marvell.com/

I believe ESN is not required to be set as SA parameter, it is normally
maintained by the PMD and application should be notified if a limit is reached.

Hi Akhil, I suppose they can be complementary, with this one being a hard ESN limit that the user can enforce by setting the initial ESN value - but there is no requirement to do so. Also, this change doesn't need explicit support added in the PMDs.
