- 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

accordingly to handle it, such as detach or attach the device from the
bus, and could benefit further fail-safe or live-migration.

This enables multiprocess synchronization for memory hotplug
requests at runtime (as opposed to initialization).
Basic workflow is the following. Primary process always does initial
mapping and unmapping, and secondary processes always follow primary
page map. Only one allocation request can be active at any one time.
When primary allocates memory, it ensures that all other processes
have allocated the same set of hugepages successfully, otherwise
any allocations made are being rolled back, and heap is freed back.
Heap is locked throughout the process, and there is also a global
memory hotplug lock, so no race conditions can happen.
When primary frees memory, it frees the heap, deallocates affected
pages, and notifies other processes of deallocations. Since heap is
freed from that memory chunk, the area basically becomes invisible
to other processes even if they happen to fail to unmap that
specific set of pages, so it's completely safe to ignore results of
sync requests.
When secondary allocates memory, it does not do so by itself.
Instead, it sends a request to primary process to try and allocate
pages of specified size and on specified socket, such that a
specified heap allocation request could complete. Primary process
then sends all secondaries (including the requestor) a separate
notification of allocated pages, and expects all secondary
processes to report success before considering pages as "allocated".
Only after primary process ensures that all memory has been
successfully allocated in all secondary process, it will respond
positively to the initial request, and let secondary proceed with
the allocation. Since the heap now has memory that can satisfy
allocation request, and it was locked all this time (so no other
allocations could take place), secondary process will be able to
allocate memory from the heap.
When secondary frees memory, it hides pages to be deallocated from
the heap. Then, it sends a deallocation request to primary process,
so that it deallocates pages itself, and then sends a separate sync
request to all other processes (including the requestor) to unmap
the same pages. This way, even if secondary fails to notify other
processes of this deallocation, that memory will become invisible
to other processes, and will not be allocated from again.
So, to summarize: address space will only become part of the heap
if primary process can ensure that all other processes have
allocated this memory successfully. If anything goes wrong, the
worst thing that could happen is that a page will "leak" and will
not be available to neither DPDK nor the system, as some process
will still hold onto it. It's not an actual leak, as we can account
for the page - it's just that none of the processes will be able
to use this page for anything useful, until it gets allocated from
by the primary.
Due to underlying DPDK IPC implementation being single-threaded,
some asynchronous magic had to be done, as we need to complete
several requests before we can definitively allow secondary process
to use allocated memory (namely, it has to be present in all other
secondary processes before it can be used). Additionally, only
one allocation request is allowed to be submitted at once.
Memory allocation requests are only allowed when there are no
secondary processes currently initializing. To enforce that,
a shared rwlock is used, that is set to read lock on init (so that
several secondaries could initialize concurrently), and write lock
on making allocation requests (so that either secondary init will
have to wait, or allocation request will have to wait until all
processes have initialized).
Any other function that wishes to iterate over memory or prevent
allocations should be using memory hotplug lock.

This set of changes enables rte_malloc to allocate and free memory
as needed. Currently, it is disabled because legacy mem mode is
enabled unconditionally.
The way it works is, first malloc checks if there is enough memory
already allocated to satisfy user's request. If there isn't, we try
and allocate more memory. The reverse happens with free - we free
an element, check its size (including free element merging due to
adjacency) and see if it's bigger than hugepage size and that its
start and end span a hugepage or more. Then we remove the area from
malloc heap (adjusting element lengths where appropriate), and
deallocate the page.
For legacy mode, runtime alloc/free of pages is disabled.
It is worth noting that memseg lists are being sorted by page size,
and that we try our best to satisfy user's request. That is, if
the user requests an element from a 2MB page memory, we will check
if we can satisfy that request from existing memory, if not we try
and allocate more 2MB pages. If that fails and user also specified
a "size is hint" flag, we then check other page sizes and try to
allocate from there. If that fails too, then, depending on flags,
we may try allocating from other sockets. In other words, we try
our best to give the user what they asked for, but going to other
sockets is last resort - first we try to allocate more memory on
the same socket.

In preparation for implementing multiprocess support, we are adding
a version number to memseg lists. We will not need any locks, because
memory hotplug will have a global lock (so any time memory map and
thus version number might change, we will already be holding a lock).
There are two ways of implementing multiprocess support for memory
hotplug: either all information about mapped memory is shared
between processes, and secondary processes simply attempt to
map/unmap memory based on requests from the primary, or secondary
processes store their own maps and only check if they are in sync
with the primary process' maps.
This implementation will opt for the latter option: primary process
shared mappings will be authoritative, and each secondary process
will use its own interal view of mapped memory, and will attempt
to synchronize on these mappings using versioning.
Under this model, only primary process will decide which pages get
mapped, and secondary processes will only copy primary's page
maps and get notified of the changes via IPC mechanism (coming
in later commits).

For now, memory is always contiguous because legacy mem mode is

the line when we implement support for allocating physically
non-contiguous memory. We can no longer guarantee physically
contiguous memory unless we're in legacy or IOVA_AS_VA mode, but
we can certainly try and see if we succeed.
In addition, this would be useful for e.g. PMD's who may allocate
chunks that are smaller than the pagesize, but they must not cross
the page boundary, in which case we will be able to accommodate
that request. This function will also support non-hugepage memory.

Currently, DPDK stores all pages as separate files in hugetlbfs.
This option will allow storing all pages in one file (one file
per memseg list).
We do this by using fallocate() calls on FreeBSD, however this is
only supported on fairly recent (4.3+) kernels, so ftruncate()
fallback is provided to grow (but not shrink) hugepage files.
Naming scheme is deterministic, so both primary and secondary
processes will be able to easily map needed files and offsets.
For multi-file segments, we can close fd's right away. For
single-file segments, we can reuse the same fd and reduce the
amount of fd's needed to map/use hugepages. However, we need to
store the fd's somewhere, so we add a tailq.

guaranteeing that we'll get contiguous VA for all of the pages

Not supported on FreeBSD.
Locking is done via fcntl() because that way, when it comes to
taking out write locks or unlocking on deallocation, we don't
have to keep original fd's around. Plus, using fcntl() gives us
