d800f55ff0 pci: fix detach and uninit naming
There are close and detach functions in ethdev.
To keep a consistent naming, PCI functions called by ethdev detach
must be named "detach" instead of "close".
Fix also comments which mix close and uninit names.

506f51cc0d mk: enable next abi preview
When a change makes really hard to keep ABI compatibility,
instead of waiting next release to break the ABI, it is smoother
to introduce the new code as a preview and disable it when packaging.
The flag RTE_NEXT_ABI must be used to "ifdef" the new code.
When the release is out, a dynamically linked application can use
the new shared libraries with the old ABI while developpers can prepare
their application for the next ABI by reading the deprecation notice
and easily testing the new code.
When starting the next release cycle, the "ifdefs" will be removed
and the ABI break will be marked by incrementing LIBABIVER. The map
files will also be updated.

The default value is enabled to be developer compliant.
The packagers must disable it as done in pkg/dpdk.spec.
When enabled, all shared library numbers are incremented by appending
a minor .1 to the old ABI number. In the next release, only impacted
libraries will have a major +1 increment.
The impacted libraries must provide an alternative map file to use
with this option.

The ABI policy is updated.

* An overview of what ABI is
* Details of the ABI deprecation process
* Details of the versioning macros
* Examples of their use
* Details of how to use the ABI validator

Thanks to John Mcnamara, who duplicated much of this effort at Intel while I was

f1237c33d4 hash: update jhash function with the latest available
Jenkins hash function was developed originally in 1996,
and was integrated in first versions of DPDK.
The function has been improved in 2006,
achieving up to 35% better performance, compared to the original one.

This patch integrates that code into the rte_jhash library.
It also updates the precalculated hash values in the unit test,
as the code now returns different values (expected).

A final note has been added in release notes for stating
the changes made.

This change adds automatic figure references to the docs. The
figure numbers in the generated Html and PDF docs are now
automatically numbered based on section.

Requires Sphinx >= 1.3.1.

The patch makes the following changes.

* Changes image:: tag to figure:: and moves image caption
  to the figure.

* Adds captions to figures that didn't previously have any.

* Un-templates the |image-name| substitution definitions
  into explicit figure:: tags. They weren't used more
  than once anyway and Sphinx doesn't support them
  for figure.

* Adds a target to each image that didn't previously
  have one so that they can be cross-referenced.

* Renamed existing image target to match the image
  name for consistency.

* Replaces the Figures lists with automatic :numref:
  :ref: entries to generate automatic numbering
  and captions.

* Replaces "Figure" references with automatic :numref:
  references.

536884d696 doc: add sphinx numref compatibility fallback
This change adds some simple handling for the :numref: directive
for Sphinx versions prior to 1.3.1. This allows the Guides
documentation to be built with older versions of Sphinx and still
produce reasonable results.

The patch replaces the :numref: reference with a link to the
target (for all Sphinx doc types). It doesn't try to label
figures/tables.

Full numref support with automatic figure/table numbering and
links can be obtained by upgrading to Sphinx 1.3.1 or later.
