PKT_RX_VLAN_PKT and PKT_RX_QINQ_PKT are deprecated for a while.
As explained in [1], these flags were kept to let the applications and
PMDs move to the new flag. There is also a need to support Rx vlan
offload without vlan strip (at least for the ixgbe driver).
This patch renames the old flags for this feature, knowing that some
PMDs were using PKT_RX_VLAN_PKT and PKT_RX_QINQ_PKT to indicate that
the vlan tci has been saved in the mbuf structure.
It is likely that some PMDs do not set the proper flags when doing vlan
offload, and it would be worth making a pass on all of them.

On i686 builds, the uin64_t type is 64-bits in size but is aligned to
32-bits only. This causes mbuf fields for rearm_data to not be 16-byte
aligned on 32-bit builds, which causes errors with some vector PMDs which
expect the rearm data to be aligned as on 64-bit.
Given that we cannot use the extra space in the data structures anyway, as
it's already used on 64-bit builds, we can just force alignment of the
physical address in the mbuf to 8-bytes in all cases. This has no effect on
64-bit systems, but fixes the updated PMDs on 32-bit.

Set the value of m->refcnt to 1, m->nb_segs to 1 and m->next
to NULL when the mbuf is stored inside the mempool (unused).
This is done in rte_pktmbuf_prefree_seg(), before freeing or
recycling a mbuf.
Before this patch, the value of m->refcnt was expected to be 0
while in pool.
The objectives are:
- to avoid drivers to set m->next to NULL in the early Rx path, since
this field is in the second 64B of the mbuf and its access could
trigger a cache miss
- rationalize the behavior of raw_alloc/raw_free: one is now the
symmetric of the other, and refcnt is never changed in these functions.
To optimize the freeing of the segments, we try try to only update
m->refcnt, m->next, and m->nb_segs when it's required (idea from
Konstantin Ananyev <konstantin.ananyev@intel.com>).

Before this patch, the management of dependencies between directories
had several issues:
- the generation of .depdirs, done at configuration is slow: it can take
more than one minute on some slow targets (usually ~10s on a standard
PC without -j).
- for instance, it is possible to express a dependency like:
- app/foo depends on lib/librte_foo
- and lib/librte_foo depends on app/bar
But this won't work because the directories are traversed with a
depth-first algorithm, so we have to choose between doing 'app' before
or after 'lib'.
- the script depdirs-rule.sh is too complex.
- we cannot use "make -d" for debug, because the output of make is used for
the generation of .depdirs.
This patch moves the DEPDIRS-* variables in the upper Makefile, making
the dependencies much easier to calculate. A DEPDIRS variable is still
used to process library dependencies in LDLIBS.
After this commit, "make config" is almost immediate.

uint16_t rte_eth_tx_prepare(uint8_t port_id, uint16_t queue_id,
struct rte_mbuf **tx_pkts, uint16_t nb_pkts)
Added fields to the `struct rte_eth_desc_lim`:
uint16_t nb_seg_max;
/**< Max number of segments per whole packet. */
uint16_t nb_mtu_seg_max;
/**< Max number of segments per one MTU */
These fields can be used to create valid packets according to the
following rules:
* For non-TSO packet, a single transmit packet may span up to
"nb_mtu_seg_max" buffers.
* For TSO packet the total number of data descriptors is "nb_seg_max",
and each segment within the TSO may span up to "nb_mtu_seg_max".
Added functions:
int
rte_validate_tx_offload(struct rte_mbuf *m)
to validate general requirements for tx offload set in mbuf of packet
such a flag completness. In current implementation this function is
called optionaly when RTE_LIBRTE_ETHDEV_DEBUG is enabled.
int rte_net_intel_cksum_prepare(struct rte_mbuf *m)
to prepare pseudo header checksum for TSO and non-TSO tcp/udp packets
before hardware tx checksum offload.
- for non-TSO tcp/udp packets full pseudo-header checksum is
counted and set.
- for TSO the IP payload length is not included.
int
rte_net_intel_cksum_flags_prepare(struct rte_mbuf *m, uint64_t ol_flags)
this function uses same logic as rte_net_intel_cksum_prepare, but
allows application to choose which offloads should be taken into
account, if full preparation is not required.
PERFORMANCE TESTS
-----------------
This feature was tested with modified csum engine from test-pmd.
The packet checksum preparation was moved from application to Tx
preparation step placed before burst.
We may expect some overhead costs caused by:
1) using additional callback before burst,
2) rescanning burst,
3) additional condition checking (packet validation),
4) worse optimization (e.g. packet data access, etc.)
We tested it using ixgbe Tx preparation implementation with some parts
disabled to have comparable information about the impact of different
parts of implementation.
IMPACT:
1) For unimplemented Tx preparation callback the performance impact is
negligible,
2) For packet condition check without checksum modifications (nb_segs,
available offloads, etc.) is 14626628/14252168 (~2.62% drop),
3) Full support in ixgbe driver (point 2 + packet checksum
initialization) is 14060924/13588094 (~3.48% drop)

Following discussions in [1] and [2], introduce a new bit to
describe the Rx checksum status in mbuf.
Before this patch, only one flag was available:
PKT_RX_L4_CKSUM_BAD: L4 cksum of RX pkt. is not OK.
And same for L3:
PKT_RX_IP_CKSUM_BAD: IP cksum of RX pkt. is not OK.
This had 2 issues:
- it was not possible to differentiate "checksum good" from
"checksum unknown".
- it was not possible for a virtual driver to say "the checksum
in packet may be wrong, but data integrity is valid".
This patch tries to solve this issue by having 4 states (2 bits)
for the IP and L4 Rx checksums. New values are:
- PKT_RX_L4_CKSUM_UNKNOWN: no information about the RX L4 checksum
-> the application should verify the checksum by sw
- PKT_RX_L4_CKSUM_BAD: the L4 checksum in the packet is wrong
-> the application can drop the packet without additional check
- PKT_RX_L4_CKSUM_GOOD: the L4 checksum in the packet is valid
-> the application can accept the packet without verifying the
checksum by sw
- PKT_RX_L4_CKSUM_NONE: the L4 checksum is not correct in the packet
data, but the integrity of the L4 data is verified.
-> the application can process the packet but must not verify the
checksum by sw. It has to take care to recalculate the cksum
if the packet is transmitted (either by sw or using tx offload)
And same for L3 (replace L4 by IP in description above).
This commit tries to be compatible with existing applications that
only check the existing flag (CKSUM_BAD).

The behavior of PKT_RX_VLAN_PKT was not very well defined, resulting in
PMDs not advertising the same flags in similar conditions.
Following discussion in [1], introduce 2 new flags PKT_RX_VLAN_STRIPPED
and PKT_RX_QINQ_STRIPPED that are better defined:
PKT_RX_VLAN_STRIPPED: a vlan has been stripped by the hardware and its

is enabled in the RX configuration of the PMD.
For now, the old flag PKT_RX_VLAN_PKT is kept but marked as deprecated.
It should be removed from applications and PMDs in a future revision.
This patch also updates the drivers. For PKT_RX_VLAN_PKT:
- e1000, enic, i40e, mlx5, nfp, vmxnet3: done, PKT_RX_VLAN_PKT already
had the same meaning than PKT_RX_VLAN_STRIPPED, minor update is

- fm10k: done, PKT_RX_VLAN_PKT already had the same meaning than
PKT_RX_VLAN_STRIPPED, and vlan stripping is always enabled on fm10k.
- ixgbe: modification done (vector and normal), the old flag was set
when a vlan was recognized, even if vlan stripping was disabled.

so the drivers should not expect that prefetching the second part of

The macro RTE_VERIFY always checks a condition.
It is optimized with "unlikely" hint.
While this macro is well suited for test applications, it is preferred
in libraries and examples to enable such check in debug mode.
That's why the macro RTE_ASSERT is introduced to call RTE_VERIFY only
if built with debug logs enabled.
A lot of assert macros were duplicated and enabled with a specific flag.
Removing these #ifdef allows to test these code branches more easily
and avoid dead code pitfalls.
The ENA_ASSERT is kept (in debug mode only) because it has more
parameters to log.

It looks better to have a data buffer address that is aligned to
8 bytes. This is the case when there is no mbuf private area, but
if there is one, the alignment depends on the size of this area
that is located between the mbuf structure and the data buffer.
Indeed, some drivers expects to have the buffer address aligned
to an even address, and moreover an unaligned buffer may impact
the performance when accessing to network headers.
Add a check in rte_pktmbuf_pool_create() to verify the alignment
constraint before creating the mempool. For applications that use
the alternative way (direct call to rte_mempool_create), also
add an assertion in rte_pktmbuf_init().
By the way, also add the MBUF log type.

The comment for TX offload flags stated that those flags started at bit

This patch:
* updates the description so that it now reflects reality that
only three flags are available for generic mbuf use
* reserved the final generic flag so that it can't be taken over for TX
offload in future
* clarifies the comment for TX flags to indicate that they should be

In order to unify the packet type, the field of 'packet_type' in
'struct rte_mbuf' needs to be extended from 16 to 32 bits.
Accordingly, some fields in 'struct rte_mbuf' are re-organized to support
this change for Vector PMD.
As 'struct rte_kni_mbuf' for KNI should be right mapped to
'struct rte_mbuf', it should be modified accordingly.
In ixgbe PMD driver, corresponding changes are added for the mbuf changes,
especially the bit masks of packet type for 'ol_flags' are replaced by
unified packet type. In addition, more packet types (UDP, TCP and SCTP)
are supported in vectorized ixgbe PMD.
To avoid breaking ABI compatibility, all the changes would be enabled by

In __rte_pktmbuf_prefree_seg(), there was an optimization to avoid using
a costly atomic operation when updating the mbuf reference counter if
its value is 1. Indeed, it means that we are the only owner of the mbuf,
and therefore nobody can change it at the same time.
We can generalize this optimization directly in rte_mbuf_refcnt_update()
so the other callers of this function, like rte_pktmbuf_attach(), can
also take advantage of this optimization.

when mbuf size is exaclty 2KB or less, that causes

To overcome that problem and unify the code, new macro was created

Currently for mbufs with refcnt, we cannot free mbufs with external memory
buffers (ie. vhost zero copy), as they are recognized as indirect
attached mbufs and therefore we free the direct mbuf it points to,
resulting in an error in the case of external memory buffers.
We solve the issue by introducing the IND_ATTACHED_MBUF flag, which indicates
that the mbuf is an indirect attached mbuf pointing to another mbuf.
When we free an mbuf, we only free the direct mbuf if the flag is set.
Freeing an mbuf with external buffer is the same as freeing a non attached mbuf.
The flag is set during attach and clear on detach.
So in the case of vhost zero copy where we have mbufs with external
buffers, by default we just free the mbuf and it is up to the user to deal with
the external buffer.
This patch would allow the removal of the RTE_MBUF_REFCNT config option,
setting refcnt for all mbufs permanently.
The patch also modifies the vhost example as it was using the
RTE_MBUF_INDIRECT macro to detect if it was an mbuf with external buffer.
