+ * Provides backwards compatibility when updating exported functions.
+ * When a symol is exported from a library to provide an API, it also provides a
+ * calling convention (ABI) that is embodied in its name, return type,
+ * arguments, etc.  On occasion that function may need to change to accommodate
+ * new functionality, behavior, etc.  When that occurs, it is desireable to
+ * allow for backwards compatibility for a time with older binaries that are
+ * dynamically linked to the dpdk.  To support that, the __vsym and
+ * VERSION_SYMBOL macros are created.  They, in conjunction with the
+ * <library>_version.map file for a given library allow for multiple versions of
+ * a symbol to exist in a shared library so that older binaries need not be
+ * immediately recompiled.
+ *
+ * Refer to the guidelines document in the docs subdirectory for details on the
+ * use of these macros
