Suricata

Currently, DPDK uses the Suricata-native pthreads. This, however, blocks the use of certain DPDK features, e.g., mempool cache.

In Suricata 8, each worker/pthread has its own separate mempool, and I assume, implementing EAL threads won't have a major performance gain. Implementing EAL threads can be good, however, for other DPDK-related features.
