Introduction of pinned external buffers doubled memory loads in the
rte_pktmbuf_prefree_seg() function. Analysis of the generated assembly
code shows unnecessary load of the pool field of the rte_mbuf structure.
Here is the snippet of the assembly for "if (!RTE_MBUF_DIRECT(m))":
Before the change the code was:
movq 0x18(%rbx), %rax // load the ol_flags field
test %r13, %rax // check if ol_flags equals to 0x60...0
jz 0x9a8718 <Block 2> // jump out to "if (m->next != NULL)"
After the change the code became:
movq 0x18(%rbx), %rax // load ol_flags
test %r14, %rax // check if ol_flags equals to 0x60...0
jnz 0x9bea38 <Block 2> // jump in to "if (!RTE_MBUF_HAS_EXTBUF(m)"
movq 0x48(%rbx), %rax // load the pool field
jmp 0x9bea78 <Block 7> // jump out to "if (m->next != NULL)"
Look like this absolutely unneeded memory load of the pool field is an
optimization for the external buffer case in GCC (4.8.5), since Clang
generates the same assembly for both before and after the change versions.
Plus, GCC favors the external buffer case over the simple case.
This assembly code layout causes the performance degradation because the
rte_pktmbuf_prefree_seg() function is a part of a very hot path.
Workaround this compilation issue by moving the check for pinned buffer
apart from the check for external buffer and restore the initial code
flow that favors the direct mbuf case over the external one.

The dynamic mbuf fields were introduced by [1]. The egress metadata is
good candidate to be moved from statically allocated field tx_metadata to
dynamic one. Because mbufs are used in half-duplex fashion only, it is
safe to share this dynamic field with ingress metadata.
The shared dynamic field contains either egress (if application going to
transmit mbuf with tx_burst) or ingress (if mbuf is received with rx_burst)
metadata and can be accessed by RTE_FLOW_DYNF_METADATA() macro or with
rte_flow_dynf_metadata_set() and rte_flow_dynf_metadata_get() helper
routines. PKT_TX_DYNF_METADATA/PKT_RX_DYNF_METADATA flag will be set
along with the data.
The mbuf dynamic field must be registered by calling
rte_flow_dynf_metadata_register() prior accessing the data.
The availability of dynamic mbuf metadata field can be checked with
rte_flow_dynf_metadata_avail() routine.
DEV_TX_OFFLOAD_MATCH_METADATA offload and configuration flag is removed.
The metadata support in PMDs is engaged on dynamic field registration.
Metadata feature is getting complex. We might have some set of actions
and items that might be supported by PMDs in multiple combinations,
the supported values and masks are the subjects to query by perfroming
trials (with rte_flow_validate).

Currently, metadata can be set on egress path via mbuf tx_metadata field
with PKT_TX_METADATA flag and RTE_FLOW_ITEM_TYPE_META matches metadata.
This patch extends the metadata feature usability.
1) RTE_FLOW_ACTION_TYPE_SET_META
When supporting multiple tables, Tx metadata can also be set by a rule and
matched by another rule. This new action allows metadata to be set as a
result of flow match.
2) Metadata on ingress
There's also need to support metadata on ingress. Metadata can be set by
SET_META action and matched by META item like Tx. The final value set by
the action will be delivered to application via metadata dynamic field of
mbuf which can be accessed by RTE_FLOW_DYNF_METADATA() macro or with
rte_flow_dynf_metadata_set() and rte_flow_dynf_metadata_get() helper
routines. PKT_RX_DYNF_METADATA flag will be set along with the data.
The mbuf dynamic field must be registered by calling
rte_flow_dynf_metadata_register() prior to use SET_META action.
The availability of dynamic mbuf metadata field can be checked
with rte_flow_dynf_metadata_avail() routine.
If application is going to engage the metadata feature it registers
the metadata dynamic fields, then PMD checks the metadata field
availability and handles the appropriate fields in datapath.
For loopback/hairpin packet, metadata set on Rx/Tx may or may not be
propagated to the other path depending on hardware capability.
MARK and METADATA look similar and might operate in similar way,
but not interacting.
Initially, there were proposed two metadata related actions:
- RTE_FLOW_ACTION_TYPE_FLAG
- RTE_FLOW_ACTION_TYPE_MARK
These actions set the special flag in the packet metadata, MARK action
stores some specified value in the metadata storage, and, on the packet
receiving PMD puts the flag and value to the mbuf and applications can
see the packet was threated inside flow engine according to the appropriate
RTE flow(s). MARK and FLAG are like some kind of gateway to transfer some
per-packet information from the flow engine to the application via
receiving datapath. Also, there is the item of type RTE_FLOW_ITEM_TYPE_MARK
provided. It allows us to extend the flow match pattern with the capability
to match the metadata values set by MARK/FLAG actions on other flows.
From the datapath point of view, the MARK and FLAG are related to the
receiving side only. It would useful to have the same gateway on the
transmitting side and there was the feature of type RTE_FLOW_ITEM_TYPE_META
was proposed. The application can fill the field in mbuf and this value
will be transferred to some field in the packet metadata inside the flow
engine. It did not matter whether these metadata fields are shared because
of MARK and META items belonged to different domains (receiving and
transmitting) and could be vendor-specific.
So far, so good, DPDK proposes some entities to control metadata inside
the flow engine and gateways to exchange these values on a per-packet basis
via datapaths.
As we can see, the MARK and META means are not symmetric, there is absent
action which would allow us to set META value on the transmitting path.
So, the action of type:
- RTE_FLOW_ACTION_TYPE_SET_META was proposed.
The next, applications raise the new requirements for packet metadata.
The flow ngines are getting more complex, internal switches are introduced,
multiple ports might be supported within the same flow engine namespace.
From the DPDK points of view, it means the packets might be sent on one
eth_dev port and received on the other one, and the packet path inside
the flow engine entirely belongs to the same hardware device. The simplest
example is SR-IOV with PF, VFs and the representors. And there is a
brilliant opportunity to provide some out-of-band channel to transfer
some extra data from one port to another one, besides the packet data
itself. And applications would like to use this opportunity.
It is supposed for application to use trials (with rte_flow_validate)
to detect which metadata features (FLAG, MARK, META) actually supported
by PMD and underlying hardware. It might depend on PMD configuration,
system software, hardware settings, etc., and should be detected
in run time.

Many features require to store data inside the mbuf. As the room in mbuf
structure is limited, it is not possible to have a field for each
feature. Also, changing fields in the mbuf structure can break the API
or ABI.
This commit addresses these issues, by enabling the dynamic registration
of fields or flags:
- a dynamic field is a named area in the rte_mbuf structure, with a
given size (>= 1 byte) and alignment constraint.
- a dynamic flag is a named bit in the rte_mbuf structure.
The typical use case is a PMD that registers space for an offload
feature, when the application requests to enable this feature. As
the space in mbuf is limited, the space should only be reserved if it
is going to be used (i.e when the application explicitly asks for it).
The registration can be done at any moment, but it is not possible
to unregister fields or flags.

Right now inclusion of rte_mbuf.h header can cause inclusion of

That prevents it to be included directly by some

To overcome that problem usually a separate definitions of rte_mbuf

This patch moves rte_mbuf structure definition (and some related macros)

An additional member 'tx_metadata' is added in union with existing member
'hash' of struct 'rte_mbuf', located to avoid conflicts with existing

Application should set the packet metadata in the mbuf dedicated field,

PKT_TX_OUTER_UDP_CKSUM mbuf ol_flags to enable Tx outer UDP
checksum offload.
To use hardware Tx outer UDP checksum offload, the user needs to,
- enable following in mbuf:
a) fill outer_l2_len and outer_l3_len in mbuf
b) set the PKT_TX_OUTER_UDP_CKSUM flag
c) set the flag PKT_TX_OUTER_IPV4 or PKT_TX_OUTER_IPV6
- configure DEV_TX_OFFLOAD_OUTER_UDP_CKSUM offload flags in slow path
