The l2fwd-keepalive example has infinite processing loops and as a result the only way to exit it is via SIGINT/SIGTERM (e.g. Control-C). The resulting shutdown is unclean, in particular leaving stale shared host memory handles. This is fixed by adding a signal handler that causes the processing loops to break, and adding cleanup code to remove the stale handles.
