parse_simple.c - packet parser exapmle with single length check that
filters out udp packets for port 9
parse_varlen.c - variable length parser that understand multiple vlan headers,
ipip, ipip6 and ip options to filter out udp or tcp packets on port 9.
The packet is parsed layer by layer with multitple length checks.
parse_ldabs.c - classic style of packet parsing using LD_ABS instruction.
Same functionality as parse_simple.
simple = 24.1Mpps per core
varlen = 22.7Mpps
ldabs = 21.4Mpps
Parser with LD_ABS instructions is slower than full direct access parser
which does more packet accesses and checks.
These examples demonstrate the choice bpf program authors can make between
flexibility of the parser vs speed.
