Cover letter [PATCH v6 0/1] net/tap: remote netdevice traffic capture
This patchset adds the special "remote" feature to the tap PMD, that actually enables capturing traffic from another netdevice. This is especially useful to get packets into the DPDK app, when the remote netdevice has no DPDK support.
The "remote" feature requires flow API support as flow rules will be configured on the remote netdevice for redirection, using the same mechanism.

[PATCH 0/4] net/tap: support flow API
v6 changes:
- update documentation with use case
v5 changes:
- rebase after adrien's patches on Tx poll and Rx signaling
v4 changes:
- rebase on top of updated "net/tap: support flow API"
- use only a single patch now as MTU, MAC and flags can be easily managed with tap_ioctl()

- memset(0) for remote_iface in rte_pmd_tap_probe()
- use snprintf instead of strncpy to correctly handle terminating \0
v2 changes:
