Thanks, a grafted those in my branch, will perform the usual build
tests, then try it on a kaby lake machine.

Have you thought about further "perf test" test cases to make sure this
code stays working with all this infrastructure and details?

Things like running synthetic workloads and getting a short sequence
known to have these new packet types, checking if the hardware
performing the tests is capable of generating such traces, etc?
