cbdd342060 examples/service_cores: add new sample application
This commit adds a new sample app, which showcases the value
of running services. In particular it allows the application
to dynamically schedule services to service-cores.

The sample app itself registers a number of dummy services,
and applies different profiles to them at runtime. Note that
this sample application does not forward any traffic - it
demonstrates advanced usage of the service cores API.

be41ac2a33 flow_classify: introduce flow classify library
The following APIs's are implemented in the
librte_flow_classify library:

rte_flow_classifier_create
rte_flow_classifier_free
rte_flow_classifier_query
rte_flow_classify_table_create
rte_flow_classify_table_entry_add
rte_flow_classify_table_entry_delete

The following librte_table API's are used:
f_create to create a table.
f_add to add a rule to the table.
f_del to delete a rule from the table.
f_free to free a table
f_lookup to match packets with the rules.

The library supports counting of IPv4 five tupple packets only,
ie IPv4 UDP, TCP and SCTP packets.

6613ffe138 ethdev: add API for traffic metering and policing
This patch introduces new ethdev generic API for Traffic Metering and
Policing (MTR), which is yet another standard RX offload for Ethernet
devices.

Similar to rte_flow and rte_tm APIs, the configuration of MTR objects is
done in their own namespace (rte_mtr) within the librte_ether library.

Main features:
1. Traffic metering: determine the color for the current packet (green,
   yellow, red) based on history maintained by the MTR object. Supported
   algorithms: srTCM (RFC 2697), trTCM (RFC 2698 and RFC 4115).
2. Policing (per meter output color actions): re-color the packet (keep
   or change the meter output color) or drop the packet.
3. Statistics
4. Capability API

1634de2728 ethdev: add flow action for metering and policing

which is why MTR objects are enabled through a newly introduced flow

The configuration of MTR objects is done in their own namespace (rte_mtr)

processing path using the "meter" flow action.

078b8b452e net/mlx4: add RSS flow rule action support
This patch dissociates single-queue indirection tables and hash QP objects
from Rx queue structures to relinquish their control to users through the
RSS flow rule action, while simultaneously allowing multiple queues to be
associated with RSS contexts.

Flow rules share identical RSS contexts (hashed fields, hash key, target
queues) to save on memory and other resources. The trade-off is some added
complexity due to reference counters management on RSS contexts.

The QUEUE action is re-implemented on top of an automatically-generated
single-queue RSS context.

The following hardware limitations apply to RSS contexts:

- The number of queues in a group must be a power of two.
- Queue indices must be consecutive, for instance the [0 1 2 3] set is
  allowed, however [3 2 1 0], [0 2 1 3] and [0 0 1 1 2 3 3 3] are not.
- The first queue of a group must be aligned to a multiple of the context
  size, e.g. if queues [0 1 2 3 4] are defined globally, allowed group
  combinations are [0 1] and [2 3]; groups [1 2] and [3 4] are not
  supported.
- RSS hash key, while configurable per context, must be exactly 40 bytes
  long.
- The only supported hash algorithm is Toeplitz.

30695adbdd net/mlx4: add VLAN filter configuration support
This commit brings back VLAN filter configuration support without any
artificial limitation on the number of simultaneous VLANs that can be
configured (previously 127).

Also thanks to the fact it does not rely on fixed per-queue arrays for
potential Verbs flow handle storage anymore, this version wastes a lot less
memory (previously 128 * 127 * pointer size, i.e. 130 kiB per Rx queue,
only one of which actually had any use for this room: the RSS parent
queue).

The number of internal flow rules generated still depends on the number of
configured MAC addresses times that of configured VLAN filters though.

96dfeb609b app/crypto-perf: add new PMD benchmarking mode
This patch adds a new benchmarking mode, which is intended for
microbenchmarking individual parts of the cryptodev framework,
specifically crypto ops alloc-build-free, cryptodev PMD enqueue
and cryptodev PMD dequeue.

It works by first benchmarking crypto operation alloc-build-free
loop (no enqueues/dequeues happening), and then benchmarking
enqueue and dequeue separately, by first completely filling up the
TX queue, and then completely draining the RX queue.

Results are shown as cycle counts per alloc/build/free, PMD enqueue
and PMD dequeue.

One new test mode is added: "pmd-cyclecount"
  (called with --ptest=pmd-cyclecount)

New command-line argument is also added:
  --pmd-cyclecount-delay-ms: this is a pmd-cyclecount-specific parameter
      that controls the delay between enqueue and dequeue. This is
      useful for benchmarking hardware acceleration, as hardware may
      not be able to keep up with enqueued packets. This parameter
      can be increased if there are large amounts of dequeue
      retries.

5b590fbe09 app/testpmd: add traffic management forwarding mode
This commit extends the testpmd application with new forwarding engine
that demonstrates the use of ethdev traffic management APIs and softnic
PMD for QoS traffic management.

In this mode, 5-level hierarchical tree of the QoS scheduler is built
with the help of ethdev TM APIs such as shaper profile add/delete,
shared shaper add/update, node add/delete, hierarchy commit, etc.
The hierarchical tree has following nodes; root node(x1, level 0),
subport node(x1, level 1), pipe node(x4096, level 2),
tc node(x16348, level 3), queue node(x65536, level 4).

During runtime, each received packet is first classified by mapping the
packet fields information to 5-tuples (HQoS subport, pipe, traffic class,
queue within traffic class, and color) and storing it in the packet mbuf
sched field. After classification, each packet is sent to softnic port
which prioritizes the transmission of the received packets, and
accordingly sends them on to the output interface.

To enable traffic management mode, following testpmd command is used;

$ ./testpmd -c c -n 4 --vdev
	'net_softnic0,hard_name=0000:06:00.1,soft_tm=on' -- -i
	--forward-mode=tm

80d0ff81e8 ethdev: add return code to stats reset function
Some devices do not support reset of eth stats.  An application may
need to know not to clear shadow stats if the device cannot.

rte_eth_stats_reset is updated to provide a return code to share
whether the device supports reset or not.
