3c32e89f68 compress/isal: add skeleton ISA-L compression PMD
Adding basic skeleton of the ISA-L compression driver.
No compression functionality, but lays the foundation for
operations in the rest of the patchset.

The ISA-L compression driver utilizes Intel's ISA-L compression
library and compressdev API.

fb8fd96d42 ethdev: add shared counter to flow API
Add rte_flow_action_count action data structure to enable shared
counters across multiple flows on a single port or across multiple
flows on multiple ports within the same switch domain. Also this enables
multiple count actions to be specified in a single flow action.

This patch also modifies the existing rte_flow_query API to take the
rte_flow_action structure as an input parameter instead of the
rte_flow_action_type enumeration to allow querying a specific action
from a flow rule when multiple actions of the same type are specified.

This patch also contains updates for the bonding, failsafe and mlx5 PMDs
and testpmd application which are affected by this API change.

fc6bbb3f28 ethdev: add port ID item and action to flow API
RTE_FLOW_ACTION_TYPE_PORT_ID brings the ability to inject matching traffic
into a different device, as identified by its DPDK port ID.

This is normally only supported when the target port ID has some kind of
relationship with the port ID the flow rule is created against, such as
being exposed by a common physical device (e.g. a different port of an
Ethernet switch).

The converse pattern item, RTE_FLOW_ITEM_TYPE_PORT_ID, makes the resulting
flow rule match traffic whose origin is the specified port ID. Note that
specifying a port ID that differs from the one the flow rule is created
against is normally meaningless (if even accepted), but can make sense if
combined with the transfer attribute.

These must not be confused with their PHY_PORT counterparts, which refer to
physical ports using device-specific indices, but unlike PORT_ID are not
necessarily tied to DPDK port IDs.

This breaks ABI compatibility for the following public functions:

- rte_flow_copy()
- rte_flow_create()
- rte_flow_query()
- rte_flow_validate()

e7b657058f ethdev: add physical port action to flow API
This patch adds the missing action counterpart to the PHY_PORT pattern
item, that is, the ability to directly inject matching traffic into a
physical port of the underlying device.

It breaks ABI compatibility for the following public functions:

- rte_flow_copy()
- rte_flow_create()
- rte_flow_query()
- rte_flow_validate()

fee1fa0285 ethdev: rename physical port item in flow API
While RTE_FLOW_ITEM_TYPE_PORT refers to physical ports of the underlying
device using specific identifiers, these are often confused with DPDK port
IDs exposed to applications in the global name space.

Since this pattern item is seldom used, rename it RTE_FLOW_ITEM_PHY_PORT
for better clarity.

No ABI impact.

39b8dda700 ethdev: fix behavior of VF/PF in flow API
Contrary to all other pattern items, these are inconsistently documented as
affecting traffic instead of simply matching its origin, without provision
for the latter.

This commit clarifies documentation and updates PMDs since the original
behavior now has to be explicitly requested using the new transfer
attribute.

It breaks ABI compatibility for the following public functions:

- rte_flow_create()
- rte_flow_validate()

Impacted PMDs are bnxt and i40e, for which the VF pattern item is now only
supported when a transfer attribute is also present.

76e9a55b5b ethdev: add transfer attribute to flow API
This new attribute enables applications to create flow rules that do not
simply match traffic whose origin is specified in the pattern (e.g. some
non-default physical port or VF), but actively affect it by applying the
flow rule at the lowest possible level in the underlying device.

It breaks ABI compatibility for the following public functions:

- rte_flow_copy()
- rte_flow_create()
- rte_flow_validate()
