Alex Wang	f2eee18911	dpif-netdev: Allow multi-rx-queue, multi-pmd-thread configuration. ... This commits adds the multithreading functionality to OVS dpdk module. Users are able to create multiple pmd threads and set their cpu affinity via specifying the cpu mask string similar to the EAL '-c COREMASK' option. Also, the number of rx queues for each dpdk interface is made configurable to help distribution of rx packets among multiple pmd threads.

Nithin Raju	7fe9859822	dpif-netlink: rename linux_flow variable to datapath_flow ... In the flow related functions, there's a stack variable called 'linux_flow'. Since this code is not specific to Linux anymore, in this patch, we rename the variable to 'datpath_flow'.

Alin Gabriel Serdean	93451a0a81	dpif-linux: Rename dpif-netlink; change to compile with MSVC. ... The patch contains the necessary modifications to compile and also to run under MSVC. Added the files to the build system and also changed dpif_linux to be under a more generic name dpif_windows. Added a TODO under the windows part in case we want to implement another counterpart for epoll functions.
