Generic Receive Offload (GRO) is a widely used SW-based offloading
technique to reduce per-packet processing overhead. It gains
performance by reassembling small packets into large ones. This
patchset is to support GRO in DPDK. To support GRO, this patch
implements a GRO API framework.
To enable more flexibility to applications, DPDK GRO is implemented as
a user library. Applications explicitly use the GRO library to merge
small packets into large ones. DPDK GRO provides two reassembly modes.
One is called lightweight mode, the other is called heavyweight mode.
If applications want to merge packets in a simple way and the number
of packets is relatively small, they can use the lightweight mode.
If applications need more fine-grained controls, they can choose the
heavyweight mode.
rte_gro_reassemble_burst is the main reassembly API which is used in
lightweight mode and processes N packets at a time. For applications,
performing GRO in lightweight mode is simple. They just need to invoke
rte_gro_reassemble_burst. Applications can get GROed packets as soon as
rte_gro_reassemble_burst returns.
rte_gro_reassemble is the main reassembly API which is used in
heavyweight mode and tries to merge N inputted packets with the packets
in GRO reassembly tables. For applications, performing GRO in heavyweight
mode is relatively complicated. Before performing GRO, applications need
to create a GRO context object, which keeps reassembly tables of
desired GRO types, by rte_gro_ctx_create. Then applications can use
rte_gro_reassemble to merge packets. The GROed packets are in the
reassembly tables of the GRO context object. If applications want to get
them, applications need to manually flush them by flush API.

Currently EAL allocates hugepages one by one not paying attention
from which NUMA node allocation was done.
Such behaviour leads to allocation failure if number of available
hugepages for application limited by cgroups or hugetlbfs and
memory requested not only from the first socket.
Example:
# 90 x 1GB hugepages availavle in a system
cgcreate -g hugetlb:/test
# Limit to 32GB of hugepages
cgset -r hugetlb.1GB.limit_in_bytes=34359738368 test
# Request 4GB from each of 2 sockets
cgexec -g hugetlb:test testpmd --socket-mem=4096,4096 ...
EAL: SIGBUS: Cannot mmap more hugepages of size 1024 MB
EAL: 32 not 90 hugepages of size 1024 MB allocated
EAL: Not enough memory available on socket 1!
Requested: 4096MB, available: 0MB
PANIC in rte_eal_init():
Cannot init memory
This happens beacause all allocated pages are
on socket 0.
Fix this issue by setting mempolicy MPOL_PREFERRED for each hugepage
to one of requested nodes using following schema:
1) Allocate essential hugepages:
1.1) Allocate as many hugepages from numa N to
only fit requested memory for this numa.
1.2) repeat 1.1 for all numa nodes.
2) Try to map all remaining free hugepages in a round-robin
fashion.
3) Sort pages and choose the most suitable.
In this case all essential memory will be allocated and all remaining
pages will be fairly distributed between all requested nodes.
New config option RTE_EAL_NUMA_AWARE_HUGEPAGES introduced and
enabled by default for linuxapp except armv7 and dpaa2.
Enabling of this option adds libnuma as a dependency for EAL.

TX coalescing waits for ETH_COALESCE_PKT_NUM packets to be coalesced
across bursts before transmitting them. For slow traffic, such as
100 PPS, this approach increases latency since packets are received
one at a time and tx coalescing has to wait for ETH_COALESCE_PKT
number of packets to arrive before transmitting.
To fix this:
- Update rx path to use status page instead and only receive packets
when either the ingress interrupt timer threshold (5 us) or
the ingress interrupt packet count threshold (32 packets) fires.
(i.e. whichever happens first).
- If number of packets coalesced is <= number of packets sent
by tx burst function, stop coalescing and transmit these packets
immediately.
Also added compile time option to favor throughput over latency by
default.

armv8 implementations may have 64B or 128B cache line.
Setting to the maximum available cache line size in generic config to
address minimum DMA alignment across all arm64 implementations.
Increasing the cacheline size has no negative impact to cache invalidation
on systems with a smaller cache line.
The need for the minimum DMA alignment has impact on functional aspects
of the platform so default config should cater the functional aspects.
There is an impact on memory usage with this scheme, but that's not too
important for the single image arm64 distribution use case.
The arm64 linux kernel followed the similar approach for single
arm64 image use case.

This patch adds a new information metrics library. This Metrics
library implements a mechanism by which producers can publish
numeric information for later querying by consumers. Metrics
themselves are statistics that are not generated by PMDs, and
hence are not reported via ethdev extended statistics.
Metric information is populated using a push model, where
producers update the values contained within the metric
library by calling an update function on the relevant metrics.
Consumers receive metric information by querying the central
metric data, which is held in shared memory.
