/** @defgroup odp_packet_io ODP PACKET IO
- * Operations on a packet.
+ * Operations on a packet Input/Output interface.
+ *
+ * Packet IO is the Ingress and Egress interface to ODP processing. It
+ * allows manipulation of the interface for setting such attributes as
+ * the mtu, mac etc.
+ * Pktio is usually followed by the classifier and a default class COS
+ * can be set so that the scheduler may distribute flows. The interface
+ * may be used directly in polled mode with odp_pktio_recv() &
+ * odp_pktio_send().
+ * Diagnostic messages can be enhanced by using odp_pktio_to_u64 which
+ * will generate a printable reference for a pktio handle for use with
+ * the logging @ref odp_ver_abt_log_dbg.
