1) introduce an interface-tx DPO. This is a simple wrapper around a sw_if_index. enhance DPO stacking functions to allow per-instance next-nodes and hence allow children to stack onto the interface per-instance tx node and not on 'interface-output'.
2) update PPPoE code to use ta midchain stack on a interface-tx DPO of the encap-interface. This remove the need for pppoe_encap node (which is replaced by the adj-midchain-tx) and interface-output node is no longer used (see above). Since PPPoE encap node is no longer needed, the PPPoE seesion does not need to be retrieved in the data-path, hence the cahce misses are removed.

Supports 64K PPPoE sessions
This plugin adds three graph nodes:
1) pppoe-input for PPPoE decapsulation
2) pppoe-encap for PPPoE encapsulation
3) pppoe-tap-dispatch for control plane process
Below is the configuration to make PPPoE CP and DP work:
vim /etc/vpp/startup.conf
tuntap {
enable
ethernet
name newtap
}
create pppoe tap tap-if-index 1
//Configure it after a subscriber's PPPoE discovery and PPP link establishment succeeds:
create pppoe session client-ip 100.1.2.1 session-id 1 client-mac 00:11:01:00:00:01
show pppoe fib
show pppoe session
