Increased RTE_EVENT_MAX_QUEUES_PER_DEV config option
from 64 to 255.
Note that config/rte_config.h contains several configuration
switches, providing for fine control of the PMD's
runtime behaviour.
The meson infrastructure is expanded as additional files are
added to this patchset.

+Driver for the Intel® Dynamic Load Balancer (DLB)
+==================================================
+
+The DPDK dlb poll mode driver supports the Intel® Dynamic Load Balancer.
+
+Prerequisites
+-------------
+
+Follow the DPDK :ref:`Getting Started Guide for Linux <linux_gsg>` to setup
+the basic DPDK environment.
+
+Configuration
+-------------
+
+The DLB PF PMD is a user-space PMD that uses VFIO to gain direct
+device access. To use this operation mode, the PCIe PF device must be bound
+to a DPDK-compatible VFIO driver, such as vfio-pci.
+
+Eventdev API Notes
+------------------
+
+The DLB provides the functions of a DPDK event device; specifically, it
+supports atomic, ordered, and parallel scheduling events from queues to ports.
+However, the DLB hardware is not a perfect match to the eventdev API. Some DLB
+features are abstracted by the PMD (e.g. directed ports), some are only
+accessible as vdev command-line parameters, and certain eventdev features are
+not supported (e.g. the event flow ID is not maintained during scheduling).
+
+In general the dlb PMD is designed for ease-of-use and does not require a
+detailed understanding of the hardware, but these details are important when
+writing high-performance code. This section describes the places where the
+eventdev API and DLB misalign.
