which eventdev ports will be used for producing, forwarding, or consuming
events from the system.

There is a confusion on setting max Rx packet length, this patch aims to
clarify it.
'rte_eth_dev_configure()' API accepts max Rx packet size via
'uint32_t max_rx_pkt_len' field of the config struct 'struct
rte_eth_conf'.
Also 'rte_eth_dev_set_mtu()' API can be used to set the MTU, and result
stored into '(struct rte_eth_dev)->data->mtu'.
These two APIs are related but they work in a disconnected way, they
store the set values in different variables which makes hard to figure
out which one to use, also having two different method for a related
functionality is confusing for the users.
Other issues causing confusion is:
* maximum transmission unit (MTU) is payload of the Ethernet frame. And
'max_rx_pkt_len' is the size of the Ethernet frame. Difference is
Ethernet frame overhead, and this overhead may be different from
device to device based on what device supports, like VLAN and QinQ.
* 'max_rx_pkt_len' is only valid when application requested jumbo frame,
which adds additional confusion and some APIs and PMDs already
discards this documented behavior.
* For the jumbo frame enabled case, 'max_rx_pkt_len' is an mandatory
field, this adds configuration complexity for application.
As solution, both APIs gets MTU as parameter, and both saves the result
in same variable '(struct rte_eth_dev)->data->mtu'. For this
'max_rx_pkt_len' updated as 'mtu', and it is always valid independent
from jumbo frame.
For 'rte_eth_dev_configure()', 'dev->data->dev_conf.rxmode.mtu' is user
request and it should be used only within configure function and result
should be stored to '(struct rte_eth_dev)->data->mtu'. After that point
both application and PMD uses MTU from this variable.
When application doesn't provide an MTU during 'rte_eth_dev_configure()'
default 'RTE_ETHER_MTU' value is used.
Additional clarification done on scattered Rx configuration, in
relation to MTU and Rx buffer size.
MTU is used to configure the device for physical Rx/Tx size limitation,
Rx buffer is where to store Rx packets, many PMDs use mbuf data buffer
size as Rx buffer size.
PMDs compare MTU against Rx buffer size to decide enabling scattered Rx
or not. If scattered Rx is not supported by device, MTU bigger than Rx
buffer size should fail.

This commit implements the eventdev ABI changes required by
the DLB/DLB2 PMDs. Several data structures and constants are modified
or added in this patch, thereby requiring modifications to the
dependent apps and examples.
The DLB/DLB2 hardware does not conform exactly to the eventdev interface.
1) It has a limit on the number of queues that may be linked to a port.
2) Some ports a further restricted to a maximum of 1 linked queue.
3) DLB does not have the ability to carry the flow_id as part
of the event (QE) payload. Note that the DLB2 hardware is capable of
carrying the flow_id.
Following is a detailed description of the changes that have been made.
1) Add new fields to the rte_event_dev_info struct. These fields allow
the device to advertise its capabilities so that applications can take
the appropriate actions based on those capabilities.
struct rte_event_dev_info {
uint32_t max_event_port_links;
/**< Maximum number of queues that can be linked to a single event
* port by this device.
*/
uint8_t max_single_link_event_port_queue_pairs;
/**< Maximum number of event ports and queues that are optimized for
* (and only capable of) single-link configurations supported by this
* device. These ports and queues are not accounted for in
* max_event_ports or max_event_queues.
*/
}
2) Add a new field to the rte_event_dev_config struct. This field allows
the application to specify how many of its ports are limited to a single
link, or will be used in single link mode.
/** Event device configuration structure */
struct rte_event_dev_config {
uint8_t nb_single_link_event_port_queues;
/**< Number of event ports and queues that will be singly-linked to
* each other. These are a subset of the overall event ports and
* queues; this value cannot exceed *nb_event_ports* or
* *nb_event_queues*. If the device has ports and queues that are
* optimized for single-link usage, this field is a hint for how many
* to allocate; otherwise, regular event ports and queues can be used.
*/
}
3) Replace the dedicated implicit_release_disabled field with a bit field
of explicit port capabilities. The implicit_release_disable functionality
is assigned to one bit, and a port-is-single-link-only attribute is
assigned to other, with the remaining bits available for future assignment.
* Event port configuration bitmap flags */
#define RTE_EVENT_PORT_CFG_DISABLE_IMPL_REL (1ULL << 0)
/**< Configure the port not to release outstanding events in
* rte_event_dev_dequeue_burst(). If set, all events received through
* the port must be explicitly released with RTE_EVENT_OP_RELEASE or
* RTE_EVENT_OP_FORWARD. Must be unset if the device is not
* RTE_EVENT_DEV_CAP_IMPLICIT_RELEASE_DISABLE capable.
*/
#define RTE_EVENT_PORT_CFG_SINGLE_LINK (1ULL << 1)
/**< This event port links only to a single event queue.
*
* @see rte_event_port_setup(), rte_event_port_link()
*/
#define RTE_EVENT_PORT_ATTR_IMPLICIT_RELEASE_DISABLE 3
/**
* The implicit release disable attribute of the port
*/
struct rte_event_port_conf {
uint32_t event_port_cfg;
/**< Port cfg flags(EVENT_PORT_CFG_) */
}
This patch also removes the depreciation notice and announce
the new eventdev ABI changes in release note.

Some DPDK applications wrongly assume these requirements:
- no hotplug, i.e. ports are never detached
- all allocated ports are available to the application
Such application iterates over ports by its own mean.
The most common pattern is to request the port count and
assume ports with index in the range [0..count[ can be used.
There are three consequences when using such wrong design:
- new ports having an index higher than the port count won't be seen
- old ports being detached (RTE_ETH_DEV_UNUSED) can be seen as ghosts
- failsafe sub-devices (RTE_ETH_DEV_DEFERRED) will be seen by the application
Such mistake will be less common with growing hotplug awareness.
All applications and examples inside this repository - except testpmd -
must be fixed to use the iterator RTE_ETH_FOREACH_DEV.

Some errors were seen with GCC 4.8 and 4.9.
It looks to be a bug fixed in GCC 5.

examples/eventdev_pipeline/pipeline_worker_tx.c:630:2: error:
missing initializer for field 'queue_id' of 'struct <anonymous>'
The workaround is to not use initializer statement,
but to use memset and standard assignment.
