This is a Linux-specific virtual PMD driver backed by an AF_PACKET
socket. This implementation uses mmap'ed ring buffers to limit copying
and user/kernel transitions. The PACKET_FANOUT_HASH behavior of
AF_PACKET is used for frame reception. In the current implementation,
Tx and Rx queues are always paired, and therefore are always equal
in number -- changing this would be a Simple Matter Of Programming.
Interfaces of this type are created with a command line option like
"--vdev=eth_af_packet0,iface=...". There are a number of options available
as arguments:
- Interface is chosen by "iface" (required)
- Number of queue pairs set by "qpairs" (optional, default: 1)
- AF_PACKET MMAP block size set by "blocksz" (optional, default: 4096)
- AF_PACKET MMAP frame size set by "framesz" (optional, default: 2048)
- AF_PACKET MMAP frame count set by "framecnt" (optional, default: 512)

This patch fixes two occurrences where a call to strncmp had the closing
brace in the wrong place. Changing this form:
if (strncmp(X,Y,sizeof(X) != 0))
which does a comparison of length 1, to
if (strncmp(X,Y,sizeof(X)) != 0)
which does the correct length comparison and then compares the result to
zero in the "if" part, as the author presumably originally intended.

During initialization of rte_table_hash_ext and rte_table_hash_lru, a
contiguous region of memory is allocated to store meta data, buckets,
extended buckets, keys, stack of keys, stack of extended buckets and
data entries. The size of each region depends on the hash table
configuration.
The address of each region is calculated using offsets relative to the
beginning of the memory region. Without this patch, the offsets
contain the size of the table meta data (sizeof(struct
rte_table_hash)). These addresses are stored in pointers which are
used when entries are added or deleted and lookups are performed.
Instead of adding these offsets to the address of the beginning of the
memory region, they are added to the address of the end of the meta
data (= address of the beginning of the memory region + sizeof(struct
rte_table_hash)). The resulting addresses are off by sizeof(struct
rte_table_hash) bytes. As a consequence, memory past the allocated
region can be accessed by the add, delete and lookup operations.
This patch corrects the address calculation by not including the size
of the meta data in the offsets.

If a key is not found in a bucket and the bucket has been extended,
the extended buckets also have to checked for potentially matching
keys. The extended buckets are checked at the end of the lookup. In
most cases, this logic is skipped as it is uncommon to have buckets in
an extended state.
In case the lookup is performed with less than 5 packets, an
unoptimized version is run instead (the optimized version requires at
least 5 packets). The extended buckets should also be checked in this
case instead of simply ignoring the extended buckets.

When an entry is deleted from an extensible rte_table_hash, the bucket
that stored the entry can become empty. If this is the case, the
bucket needs to be removed from the chain of buckets.
During removal of the bucket, the chain should be updated first. If
the bucket that will be removed is cleared first, the chain is broken
and the information to update the chain is lost.

A new sample app that shows the usage of the distributor library. This
app works as follows:
* An RX thread runs which pulls packets from each ethernet port in turn
and passes those packets to worker using a distributor component.
* The workers take the packets in turn, and determine the output port
for those packets using basic l2forwarding doing an xor on the source
port id.
* The RX thread takes the returned packets from the workers and enqueue
those packets into an rte_ring structure.
* A TX thread pulls the packets off the rte_ring structure and then
sends each packet out the output port specified previously by the worker
* Command-line option support provided only for portmask.

Data_ring is a pre-mapped guest ring buffer that vmxnet3
backend has access to directly without a need for buffer
address mapping and unmapping during packet transmission.
It is useful in reducing device emulation cost on the tx
path. There are some additional cost though on the guest
driver for packet copy and overall it's a win.
This patch leverages the data_ring for packets with a
length less than or equal to the data_ring entry size
(128B). For larger packet, we won't use the data_ring
as that requires one extra tx descriptor and it's not
clear if doing this will be beneficial.
Performance results show that this patch significantly
boosts vmxnet3 64B tx performance (pkt rate) for l2fwd
application on a Ivy Bridge server by >20% at which
point we start to hit some bottleneck on the rx side.

This patch includes two small performance optimizations
on the rx path:
(1) It adds unlikely hints on various infrequent error
paths to the compiler to make branch prediction more
efficient.
(2) It also moves a constant assignment out of the pkt
polling loop. This saves one branching per packet.
Performance evaluation configs:
- On the DPDK-side, it's running some l3 forwarding app
inside a VM on ESXi with one core assigned for polling.
- On the client side, pktgen/dpdk is used to generate
64B tcp packets at line rate (14.8M PPS).
Performance results on a Nehalem box (4cores@2.8GHzx2)
shown below. CPU usage is collected factoring out the
idle loop cost.
- Before the patch, ~900K PPS with 65% CPU of a core
used for DPDK.
- After the patch, only 45% of a core used, while
maintaining the same packet rate.

This change makes vmxnet3 consistent with other pmds in

The unit test can be used to measure cycles per packet in different rx/tx routines.
The NIC works in loopback mode. So it doesn't require test equipment to measure throughput.
As result, the unit test shows the average cycles per packet consuming.
When doing the test, make sure the link is UP.
Usage Example:
1. Run unit test app in interactive mode
app/test -c f -n 4 -- -i
2. Run and wait for the result
pmd_perf_autotest
There's option to choose rx/tx pair, default is vector.
set_rxtx_mode [vector|scalar|full|hybrid]
Note: To get acurate scalar fast, please choose 'vector' or 'hybrid' without INC_VEC=y in config
It supports to measure standalone rx or tx.
Usage Example:
Choose rx or tx standalone, default is both
set_rxtx_anchor [rxtx|rxonly|txonly]
It also supports to measure standalone RX burst cycles.
In this way, it won't repeat re-send received packets.
Now it measures two situations, poll before/after xmit(w or w/o desc. cache conflict)
Usage Example:
Set stream control mode, by default is continuous
set_rxtx_sc [continuous|poll_before_xmit|poll_after_xmit]
