25c99fbd68 eal/bsd: rename bsdapp to freebsd
The term "bsdapp" is a legacy one, but just calling the subdirectory
"freebsd" is just clearer for all concerned.

This patch fixes a wrong tag in guides/nics/features.rst.
The features tags should be, according to the
"Features Overview" section in this doc, one of the following:
"uses", "implements", "provides", or "related".
Hence in Inner RSS section, it should be "uses"
instead of "users".

4445a0f4c7 net/enic: fix inner packet matching
Inner packet matching is currently buggy in many cases.

1. Mishandling null spec ("match any").
The copy_item functions do nothing if spec is null. This is incorrect,
as all patterns should be appended to the L5 pattern buffer even for
null spec (treated as all zeros).

2. Accessing null spec causing segfault.

3. Not setting protocol fields.
The NIC filter API currently has no flags for "match inner IPv4, IPv6,
UDP, TCP, and so on". So, the driver needs to explicitly set EtherType
and IP protocol fields in the L5 pattern buffer to avoid false
positives (e.g. reporting IPv6 as IPv4).

Instead of keep adding "if inner, do something differently" cases to
the existing copy_item functions, introduce separate functions for
inner packet patterns and address the above issues in those
functions. The changes to the previous outer-packet copy_item
functions are mechanical, due to reduced indentation.

477959e6ee net/enic: enable limited support for raw flow item
Some apps like VPP use a raw item to match UDP tunnel headers like
VXLAN or GENEVE. The NIC hardware supports such usage via L5 match,
which does pattern match on packet data immediately following the

5af7af4d6b net/enic: enable limited passthru flow action
Some apps like VPP use PASSTHRU+MARK flow rules to offload packet
matching to the NIC. Just like MARK+RSS used by OVS-DPDK and others,
PASSTHRU+MARK is used to "mark and then receive normally". Recent VIC
adapters support such flow rules, so enable PASSTHRU for this limited
use case.

e9434f6f60 net/enic: enable limited RSS flow action
Some apps like OVS-DPDK use MARK+RSS flow rules in order to offload
packet matching to the NIC. The RSS action in such flow rules simply
indicates "receive packet normally", not trying to override the port
wide RSS. The action is included in the flow rules simply to terminate
them, as MARK is not a fate-deciding action. And, the RSS action has a
most basic config: default hash, level, types, null key, and identity
queue mapping.

Recent VIC adapters can support these "mark and receive" flow
rules. So, enable support for RSS action for this limited use case.

e7347a8aff net/enic: allow flow mark ID 0
The driver currently accepts mark ID 0 but does not report it in
matching packet's mbuf. For example, the following testpmd command
succeeds. But, the mbuf of a matching IPv4 UDP packet does not have
PKT_RX_FDIR_ID set.

flow create 0 ingress pattern ... actions mark id 0 / queue index 0 / end

The problem has to do with mapping mark IDs (32-bit) to NIC filter
IDs. Filter ID is currently 16-bit, so values greater than 0xffff are
rejected. The firmware reserves filter ID 0 for filters that do not
mark (e.g. steer w/o mark). And, the driver reserves 0xffff for the
flag action. This leaves 1...0xfffe for app use.

It is possible to simply reject mark ID 0 as unsupported. But, 0 is
commonly used (e.g. OVS-DPDK and VPP). So, when adding a filter, set
filter ID = mark ID + 1 to support mark ID 0. The receive handler
subtracts 1 from filter ID to get back the original mark ID.

c3568ea376 eal: restrict control threads to startup CPU affinity
Spawning the ctrl threads on anything that is not part of the eal
coremask is not that polite to the rest of the system, especially
when you took good care to pin your processes on cpu resources with
tools like taskset (linux) / cpuset (freebsd).

Rather than introduce yet another eal options to control on which cpu
those ctrl threads are created, let's take the startup cpu affinity
as a reference and remove the eal coremask from it.
If no cpu is left, then we default to the master core.

The cpuset is computed once at init before the original cpu affinity
is lost.

Introduced a RTE_CPU_AND macro to abstract the differences between linux
and freebsd respective macros.

Examples in a 4 cores FreeBSD vm:

a9de470cc7 test: move to app directory
Since all other apps have been moved to the "app" folder, the autotest app
remains alone in the test folder. Rather than having an entire top-level
folder for this, we can move it back to where it all started in early
versions of DPDK - the "app/" folder.

This move has a couple of advantages:
* This reduces clutter at the top level of the project, due to one less
  folder.
* It eliminates the separate build task necessary for building the
  autotests using make "make test-build" which means that developers are
  less likely to miss something in their own compilation tests
* It re-aligns the final location of the test binary in the app folder when
  building with make with it's location in the source tree.

For meson builds, the autotest app is different from the other apps in that
it needs a series of different test cases defined for it for use by "meson
test". Therefore, it does not get built as part of the main loop in the
app folder, but gets built separately at the end.

b543d1a715 compat: merge compat library into EAL
Since compat library is only a single header, we can easily move it into
the EAL common headers instead of tracking it separately. The downside of
this is that it becomes a little more difficult to have any libs that are
built before EAL depend on it. Thankfully, this is not a major problem as
the only library which uses rte_compat.h and is built before EAL (kvargs)
already has the path to the compat.h header file explicitly called out as
an include path.

However, to ensure that we don't hit problems later with this, we can add
EAL common headers folder to the global include list in the meson build
which means that all common headers can be safely used by all libraries, no
matter what their build order.

As a side-effect, this patch also fixes an issue with building on BSD using
meson, due to compat lib no longer needing to be listed as a dependency.
