There is no chance that such a patch would be merged on my watch. Please 
allocate your use-case-specific metadata from a pool, and carry the metadata 
pool index in opaque2 (or opaque, if you can swing it).

Bloating the vlib_buffer_t to carry use-case-specific metadata is a non-starter.

Subject: [vpp-dev] Can i increase the size of vlib buffer opaque2

We are currently using opaque2 which has 10 uint32.
Can i increase this size to 30 uint32s.
What kind of impact/restrictions we have for this opaque2 metadata sizes.

Please let us know.
