00a3d8104a ethdev: remove detachable device flag
This flag is not necessary at the ether layer anymore.
Buses are able to advertise their hotplug support. The ether layer can
rely upon this capability instead of a special flag.

727d83ca23 net/virtio-user: fix multi-process attach
Secondary process doesn't properly attach to the rte_eth_device
initialized by the primary process.

Accessing device from secondary process (e.g. via rte_eth_rx_burst),
causes process to crash. because rte_eth_dev_data is not properly set.

The issue was flood by
'commit 7f95f78a8aea ("ethdev: clear data when allocating device")'
which now clears rte_eth_dev_data entry.
For pci devices the struct is initialized by rte_eth_dev_pci_probe
->eth_dev_attach_secondary().
However, for virtio-user virtio_user_pmd_probe() is called instead of
rte_eth_dev_pci_probe().

The fix is to call rte_eth_dev_attach_secondary(), for secondary
process, from virtio_user_pmd_probe.

ef53b60300 net/virtio-user: support LSC
So far, virtio-user with vhost-user as the backend can only support
client mode. So when vhost user backend is down, i.e., unix socket
connection is broken, the connection cannot be re-connected. We will
forcely set the link state to be down.

Note: virtio-user with vhost-kernel as the backend still cannot
support lsc now as we fail to find a way to monitor the backend, tap
device, up/down events.

For rxq interrupt, the device (backend driver) will notify driver

c12a26ee20 net/virtio-user: fix not properly reset device
virtio_user is not properly reset when users call vtpci_reset(),
as it ignores VIRTIO_CONFIG_STATUS_RESET status in
virtio_user_set_status().

This might lead to initialization failure as it starts to re-init
the device before sending RESET messege to backend. Besides, previous
callfds and kickfds are not closed.

To fix it, we add support to disable virtqueues when it's set to
DRIVER OK status, and re-init fields in struct virtio_user_dev.

142678d429 net/virtio-user: fix wrongly get/set features
Before the commit 86d59b21468a ("net/virtio: support LRO"), features
in virtio PMD, is decided and properly set at device initialization
and will not be changed. But afterward, features could be changed in
virtio_dev_configure(), and will be re-negotiated if it's changed.

In virtio-user, device features is obtained at driver probe phase
only once, but we did not store it. So the added feature bits in
re-negotiation will fail.

To fix it, we store it down, and will be used to feature negotiation
either at device initialization phase or device configure phase.

6d890f8ab5 net/virtio: fix multiple process support
The introduce of virtio 1.0 support brings yet another set of ops, badly,
it's not handled correctly, that it breaks the multiple process support.

The issue is the data/function pointer may vary from different processes,
and the old used to do one time set (for primary process only). That
said, the function pointer the secondary process saw is actually from the
primary process space. Accessing it could likely result to a crash.

Kudos to the last patches, we now be able to maintain those info that may
vary among different process locally, meaning every process could have its
own copy for each of them, with the correct value set. And this is what
this patch does:

- remap the PCI (IO port for legacy device and memory map for modern
  device)

- set vtpci_ops correctly

After that, multiple process would work like a charm. (At least, it
passed my fuzzy test)

553f45932f net/virtio: store PCI operators pointer locally
We used to store the vtpci_ops at virtio_hw structure. The struct,
however, is stored in shared memory. That means only one value is
allowed. For the multiple process model, however, the address of
vtpci_ops should be different among different processes.

Take virtio PMD as example, the vtpci_ops is set by the primary
process, based on its own process space. If we access that address
from the secondary process, that would be an illegal memory access,
A crash then might happen.

To make the multiple process model work, we need store the vtpci_ops
in local memory but not in a shared memory. This is what the patch
does: a local virtio_hw_internal array of size RTE_MAX_ETHPORTS is
allocated. This new structure is used to store all these kind of
info in a non-shared memory. Current, we have:

- vtpci_ops

- rte_pci_ioport

- virtio pci mapped memory, such as common_cfg.

The later two will be done in coming patches. Later patches would also
set them correctly for secondary process, so that the multiple process
model could work.

cb6696d220 drivers: update registration macro usage
Modify the PMD_REGISTER_DRIVER macro, adding a name argument to it.  The
addition of a name argument creates a token that can be used for subsequent
macros in the creation of unique symbol names to export additional bits of
information for use by the pmdinfogen tool.  For example:

PMD_REGISTER_DRIVER(ena_driver, ena);

registers the ena_driver struct as it always did, and creates a symbol
const char this_pmd_name0[] __attribute__((used)) = "ena";

which pmdinfogen can search for and extract.  The subsequent macro

DRIVER_REGISTER_PCI_TABLE(ena, ena_pci_id_map);

creates a symbol const char ena_pci_tbl_export[] __attribute__((used)) =
"ena_pci_id_map";

Which allows pmdinfogen to find the pci table of this driver

Using this pattern, we can export arbitrary bits of information.

pmdinfo uses this information to extract hardware support from an object
file and create a json string to make hardware support info discoverable
later.

eth_ring, eth_null, etc. To reuse the code of original virtio, we do
some adjustment in virtio_ethdev.c, such as remove key _static_ of
eth_virtio_dev_init() so that it can be reused in virtual device; and
we add some check to make sure it will not crash.

Configured parameters include:
  - queues (optional, 1 by default), number of queue pairs, multi-queue
    not supported for now.
  - cq (optional, 0 by default), not supported for now.
  - mac (optional), random value will be given if not specified.
  - queue_size (optional, 256 by default), size of virtqueues.
  - path (madatory), path of vhost user.

When enable CONFIG_RTE_VIRTIO_USER (enabled by default), the compiled
library can be used in both VM and container environment.

Examples:
path_vhost=<path_to_vhost_user> # use vhost-user as a backend

sudo ./examples/l2fwd/build/l2fwd -c 0x100000 -n 4 \
    --socket-mem 0,1024 --no-pci --file-prefix=l2fwd \
    --vdev=virtio-user0,mac=00:01:02:03:04:05,path=$path_vhost -- -p 0x1

Known issues:
 - Control queue and multi-queue are not supported yet.
 - Cannot work with --huge-unlink.
 - Cannot work with no-huge.
 - Cannot work when there are more than VHOST_MEMORY_MAX_NREGIONS(8)
   hugepages.
 - Root privilege is a must (mainly becase of sorting hugepages according
   to physical address).
 - Applications should not use file name like HUGEFILE_FMT ("%smap_%d").
 - Cannot work with vhost-net backend.

e9efa4d938 net/virtio-user: add new virtual PCI driver
This patch implements another new instance of struct virtio_pci_ops to
drive the virtio-user virtual device. Instead of rd/wr ioport or PCI
configuration space, this virtual pci driver will rd/wr the virtual
device struct virtio_user_hw, and when necessary, invokes APIs provided
by device emulation later to start/stop the device.
