+# Apart from looking for netmap headers, we make sure that the host API version
+# supports the netmap backend (>=11). The upper bound (15) is meant to simulate
+# a minor/major version number. Minor new features will be marked with values up
+# to 15, and if something happens that requires a change to the backend we will
+# move above 15, submit the backend fixes and modify this two bounds.
