Hi Ravi,

Just a note on the structure of the commit message for this and the other
patches. The first thing to do if you are new to contributing to DPDK is
to have a read through the guidelines on "Contributing Code to DPDK":

   http://dpdk.org/doc/guides/contributing/patches.html

In particular the subject line should contain the component that is being
modified. Something like:

    examples/l3fwd: add config file support for exact match

Do a git log examples/l3fwd to see some other examples and have a look at
the following "Commit Messages: Subject Line" section of the above guidelines

    
http://dpdk.org/doc/guides/contributing/patches.html#commit-messages-subject-line

The body of the message should contain a short description of what you are 
changing,
at a high level, and why you are changing it. See also:

    http://dpdk.org/doc/guides/contributing/patches.html#commit-messages-body

The version information in your commit message is good but that should be 
included
after the --- line so that it is part of the patch but not part of the commit
message.

John.
