Event devices can be coupled with various components to provide
new event sources by using event adapters. The event timer adapter
is one such adapter; it bridges event devices and timer mechanisms.
This library extends the event-driven programming model by
introducing a new type of event that represents a timer expiration,
and it provides APIs with which adapters can be created or destroyed
and event timers can be armed and canceled.

NFB cards employ multiple Ethernet ports.
Until now, Ethernet port-related operations were performed on all of them

With new NFB-200G2QL card, this is no longer viable.
Since there is no fixed mapping between the queues and Ethernet ports,
and since a single card can be represented as two ports in DPDK,
there is no way of telling which (if any) physical ports should be

and hot insertion event.
The process is that, testpmd first enable hotplug by below commands,
E.g. ./build/app/testpmd -c 0x3 --n 4 -- -i --hot-plug
then testpmd starts the device event monitor by calling the new API
(rte_dev_event_monitor_start) and register the user's callback by call
the API (rte_dev_event_callback_register), when device being hotplug
insertion or hotplug removal, the device event monitor detects the event
and call user's callbacks, user could process the event in the callback
accordingly.

This patch aims to add a general device event monitor framework at

accordingly. It could also expand for all other types of device event
monitor, but not in this scope at the stage.
To get started, users firstly call below new added APIs to enable/disable
the device event monitor mechanism:
- rte_dev_event_monitor_start
- rte_dev_event_monitor_stop
Then users shell register or unregister callbacks through the new added
APIs. Callbacks can be some device specific, or for all devices.
-rte_dev_event_callback_register
-rte_dev_event_callback_unregister
Use hotplug case for example, when device hotplug insertion or hotplug
removal, we will get notified from kernel, then call user's callbacks
accordingly to handle it, such as detach or attach the device from the
bus, and could benefit further fail-safe or live-migration.

Before, we were aggregating multiple pages into one memseg, so the
number of memsegs was small. Now, each page gets its own memseg,
so the list of memsegs is huge. To accommodate the new memseg list
size and to keep the under-the-hood workings sane, the memseg list
is now not just a single list, but multiple lists. To be precise,
each hugepage size available on the system gets one or more memseg
lists, per socket.
In order to support dynamic memory allocation, we reserve all
memory in advance (unless we're in 32-bit legacy mode, in which
case we do not preallocate memory). As in, we do an anonymous
mmap() of the entire maximum size of memory per hugepage size, per
socket (which is limited to either RTE_MAX_MEMSEG_PER_TYPE pages or
RTE_MAX_MEM_MB_PER_TYPE megabytes worth of memory, whichever is the
smaller one), split over multiple lists (which are limited to
either RTE_MAX_MEMSEG_PER_LIST memsegs or RTE_MAX_MEM_MB_PER_LIST
megabytes per list, whichever is the smaller one). There is also
a global limit of CONFIG_RTE_MAX_MEM_MB megabytes, which is mainly
used for 32-bit targets to limit amounts of preallocated memory,
but can be used to place an upper limit on total amount of VA
memory that can be allocated by DPDK application.
So, for each hugepage size, we get (by default) up to 128G worth
of memory, per socket, split into chunks of up to 32G in size.
The address space is claimed at the start, in eal_common_memory.c.
The actual page allocation code is in eal_memalloc.c (Linux-only),
and largely consists of copied EAL memory init code.
Pages in the list are also indexed by address. That is, in order
to figure out where the page belongs, one can simply look at base
address for a memseg list. Similarly, figuring out IOVA address
of a memzone is a matter of finding the right memseg list, getting
offset and dividing by page size to get the appropriate memseg.
This commit also removes rte_eal_dump_physmem_layout() call,
according to deprecation notice [1], and removes that deprecation
notice as well.
On 32-bit targets due to limited VA space, DPDK will no longer
spread memory to different sockets like before. Instead, it will
(by default) allocate all of the memory on socket where master
lcore is. To override this behavior, --socket-mem must be used.
The rest of the changes are really ripple effects from the memseg
change - heap changes, compile fixes, and rewrites to support
fbarray-backed memseg lists. Due to earlier switch to _walk()
functions, most of the changes are simple fixes, however some
of the _walk() calls were switched to memseg list walk, where
it made sense to do so.
Additionally, we are also switching locks from flock() to fcntl().
Down the line, we will be introducing single-file segments option,
and we cannot use flock() locks to lock parts of the file. Therefore,
we will use fcntl() locks for legacy mem as well, in case someone is
unfortunate enough to accidentally start legacy mem primary process
alongside an already working non-legacy mem-based primary process.

Enable rx queue interrupts if the app requests them, and vNIC has
enough interrupt resources. Use interrupt vector 0 for link status and
errors. Use vector 1 for rx queue 0, vector 2 for rx queue 1, and so
on. So, with n rx queues, vNIC needs to have at n + 1 interrupts.
For VIC, enabling and disabling rx queue interrupts are simply
mask/unmask operations. VIC's credit based interrupt moderation is not
used, as the app wants to explicitly control when to enable/disable
interrupts.
This version requires MSI-X (vfio-pci). Sharing one interrupt for link
status and rx queues is possible, but is rather complex and has no

Currently, enic completely ignores the requested max Rx packet size
(rxmode.max_rx_pkt_len). The desired behavior is that the NIC hardware
drops packets larger than the requested size, even though they are
still smaller than MTU.
Cisco VIC does not have such a feature. But, we can accomplish a
similar (not same) effect by reducing the size of posted receive
buffers. Packets larger than the posted size get truncated, and the
receive handler drops them. This is also how the kernel enic driver
enforces the Rx side MTU.
This workaround works only when scatter mode is *not* used. When
scatter is used, there is currently no way to support
rxmode.max_rx_pkt_len, as the NIC always receives packets up to MTU.
For posterity, add a copious amount of comments regarding the
hardware's drop/receive behavior with respect to max/current MTU.

Currently, when more than 1 receive queues are configured, the driver
always enables RSS with the driver's own default hash type, key, and

this by implementing the ethdev RSS API as follows.
Correctly report the RETA size, key size, and supported hash types
through rte_eth_dev_info.
During dev_configure(), initialize RSS according to the device's
mq_mode and rss_conf. Start with the default RETA, and use the default
key unless a custom key is provided.
Add the RETA and rss_conf query/set handlers to let the user change
RSS settings after the initial configuration. The hardware is able to
change hash type, key, and RETA individually. So, the handlers change
only the affected settings.
Refactor/rename several functions in order to make their intentions
clear. For example, remove all traces of RSS from

Despite being versatile, the hardware support for filtering has a number
of special properties which must be taken into account. Namely, there is

The combinations of match flags and field values which can describe the
exceptional filters are as follows:
- ETHER_TYPE or ETHER_TYPE | LOC_MAC with IPv4 or IPv6 EtherType
- ETHER_TYPE | IP_PROTO or ETHER_TYPE | IP_PROTO | LOC_MAC with UDP or
TCP IP protocol value
- The same combinations with OUTER_VID and/or INNER_VID
These exceptional filters can be expressed in terms of RTE flow rules.
If the user creates such a flow rule, no traffic will hit the underlying

updates to use the new 32-bit version of the Port Information message. If
we get an error, we know we're dealing with older Firmware, and if not,
we'll start getting th new 32-bit Port Capability message formats.
Also, refactor t4_handle_fw_rpl() to handle new 32-bit Port Capability
replies from firmware in t4_handle_get_port_info().

In 18.02 release the ABI of ethdev component was changed.
To keep compatibility with previous versions of the library
the versioning of rte_eth_dev_filter_ctrl function was implemented.
As soon as deprecation note was issued in 18.02 release, there is
no need to keep compatibility with previous versions.
Remove the versioning of rte_eth_dev_filter_ctrl function.

This patch adds support for meter configuration profiles.
Benefits: simplified configuration procedure, improved performance.
Q1: What is the configuration profile and why does it make sense?
A1: The configuration profile represents the set of configuration
parameters for a given meter object, such as the rates and sizes for
the token buckets. The configuration profile concept makes sense when
many meter objects share the same configuration, which is the typical
usage model: thousands of traffic flows are each individually metered
according to just a few service levels (i.e. profiles).
Q2: How is the configuration profile improving the performance?
A2: The performance improvement is achieved by reducing the memory
footprint of a meter object, which results in better cache utilization
for the typical case when large arrays of meter objects are used. The
internal data structures stored for each meter object contain:
a) Constant fields: Low level translation of the configuration
parameters that does not change post-configuration. This is
really duplicated for all meters that use the same
configuration. This is the configuration profile data that is
moved away from the meter object. Current size (implementation
dependent): srTCM = 32 bytes, trTCM = 32 bytes.
b) Variable fields: Time stamps and running counters that change
during the on-going traffic metering process. Current size
(implementation dependent): srTCM = 24 bytes, trTCM = 32 bytes.
Therefore, by moving the constant fields to a separate profile
data structure shared by all the meters with the same
configuration, the size of the meter object is reduced by ~50%.
