/**

 *
 * This file implements structs and helper functions to manipulate hICN dpo.
 * An hICN DPO is a combination of:
 *   - a hICN DPO ctx (context) that holds the structure containing the
 *     information to choose the next hop,
 *   - a dpo vft that specify how to update the hICN DPO ctx when a next hop is
 *     added, deleted or updated,
 *   - a strategy containing (see strategy.h): (i) the vpp node that processes Interest packets
 *     subjected to such strategy, (ii) the definition of the vft that defines
 *     the hICN strategy functions
 * An hICN DPO is places as the sole next hop in the vpp loadbalancer, and it containes
 * a list of next hops that will be used by the associated strategy when forwarding
 * interest packets.
