Hi,
    I found the following notes in file metadata.hpp in UHD:
    /*!
     * RX metadata structure for describing sent IF data.
     * Includes time specification, fragmentation flags, burst flags,
and error codes.
     * The receive routines will convert IF data headers into metadata.
     */
    Are the IF data header ethernet packet header?Or anything else?
    Thanks.

Its referring to an VITA49 IF data packet, since we send samples
packetized in VITA. The docs would be better to say samples.
