2f9d47013e mem: move librte_malloc to eal/common
Move malloc inside eal and create a new section in MAINTAINERS file for
Memory Allocation in EAL.

Create a dummy malloc library to avoid breaking applications that have
librte_malloc in their DT_NEEDED entries.

This is the first step towards using malloc to allocate memory directly
from memsegs. Thus, memzones would allocate memory through malloc,
allowing to free memzones.

f295a00a2b mbuf: add definitions of unified packet types
As there are only 6 bit flags in ol_flags for indicating packet
types, which is not enough to describe all the possible packet
types hardware can recognize. For example, i40e hardware can
recognize more than 150 packet types. Unified packet type is
composed of L2 type, L3 type, L4 type, tunnel type, inner L2 type,
inner L3 type and inner L4 type fields, and can be stored in
'struct rte_mbuf' of 32 bits field 'packet_type'.

3962541758 mbuf: redefine packet type
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
RTE_NEXT_ABI.

Note that around 2% performance drop (64B) was observed of doing 4 ports

0205f87355 vfio: fix overflow of BAR region offset and size
When using vfio, the probe fails for BAR > 0 after the
commit-id 90a1633b2 (eal/linux: allow to map BARs with MSI-X tables).

While debugging further, found that the BAR region offset and size read from
vfio are u64, but are assigned to uint32_t variables.  This results in the u64
value getting truncated to 0 and passing wrong offset and size to mmap for
subsequent BAR regions.

The fix is to use unsigned long for the offset and size.

This is based on patch by Alejandro Lucero <alejandro.lucero@netronome.com>

This patch extends the memzone allocator to remove the restriction
that prevented callers from specifying multiple page sizes in the

In doing so, we also sanitize the free segment matching logic to get

vs 16GB on PPC), thereby allowing for a broader range of hugepages on
architectures that support it.

473d1bebce hash: allow to store data in hash table
Usually hash tables not only store keys, but also data associated
to them. In order to maintain the existing API, the old functions
will still return the index where the key was stored.
The new functions will return the data associated to that key.
In the case of the lookup_bulk function, it will return also
the number of entries found and a bitmask of which entries
were found.

Unit tests have been updated to use these new functions.

As a final point, a flag has been added in rte_hash_parameters
to indicate if there are new parameters for future versions,
so there is no need to maintain multiple versions
of the existing functions in the future.

48a3991196 hash: replace with cuckoo hash implementation
This patch replaces the existing hash library with another approach,
using the Cuckoo Hash method to resolve collisions (open addressing),
which pushes items from a full bucket when a new entry tries
to be added in it, storing the evicted entry in an alternative location,
using a secondary hash function.

This gives the user the ability to store more entries when a bucket
is full, in comparison with the previous implementation.
Therefore, the unit test has been updated, as some scenarios have changed
(such as the previous removed restriction).

Also note that the API has not been changed, although new fields
have been added in the rte_hash structure (structure is internal now).
The main change when creating a new table is that the number of entries
per bucket is fixed now, so its parameter is ignored now
(still there to maintain the same parameters structure).
The hash unit test has been updated to reflect these changes.

As a last note, the maximum burst size in lookup_burst function
hash been increased to 64, to improve performance.

Newer kernels make this unreadable for security reasons for non-roots.
Running the application will then fill the logs with

  rte_mem_virt2phy: cannot open /proc/self/pagemap

messages.

However, there are cases when DPDK is and should be run as non-root,
without the need for virtual-to-physical address translations: a
typical example is when working with PCAP input/output. This patch
adds a start-time check for /proc/self/pagemap readability, and
directly returns an error code from rte_mem_virt2phy().

This way, there is only a one-time warning at startup instead of
constant warnings all the time.

afc5c914a0 lpm: fix big endian support
This module uses type conversion between struct and int.
Also truncation and comparison is used with this int.
It is not safe for different endian arch.

Add ifdef for big endian struct to fix this issue.

Extend eth_pcap rx and tx to support jumbo frames.

On the receive side read large packets into multiple mbufs and
on the transmit side convert them back to a single pcap buffer.
