5a19633079 examples: warn about broken pkg-config
Since the examples are designed to be built by end-users using Make, we
can detect and warn about broken pkg-config on the user's system as part
of the build process.

8549295db0 build/pkg-config: improve static linking flags
Rather than setting -Bstatic in the linker flags when doing a static link,
and then having to explicitly set -Bdynamic again afterwards, we can update
the pkg-config file to use -l:libfoo.a syntax to explicitly refer to the
static library in question. Since this syntax is not supported by meson's
pkg-config module directly, we can post-process the .pc files instead to
adjust them.

Once done, we can simplify the examples' makefiles and the docs by removing
the explicit static flag.

69b1bb49ed examples: hide error for missing pkg-config path flag
Some versions of pkg-config don't support the --path flag, which is not a
fatal error when building the apps. Without the flag, the makefile just
cannot track the .pc file of DPDK as a dependency of the build. Therefore,
we can ignore the error and suppress it by redirecting to /dev/null the
stderr from that call to pkg-config.

12a652a02b examples: fix build with old pkg-config
Not all versions of pkg-config in distros have support for the
--define-prefix flag [1], causing errors when building examples manually or
with test-meson-builds.sh script [2].

For the former case, we need to remove the hard-coded use of the flag in
the Makefiles.

For the latter case, the flag is necessary for builds to succeed, so we
skip the tests when it's not present, passing it as part of the pkg-config
command if it is supported.

7e9562a107 examples: fix make clean when using pkg-config
The "make clean" command had a number of issues:
- the "--ignore-fail-on-non-empty" flag is not present on BSD
- the call to remove the build folder would fail if there was no build
  folder present.

These are fixed by only removing the build folder if it exists, and by
using -p flag to rmdir in place of --ignore-fail-on-non-empty

e9c6594264 examples: detect default build directory
Most examples have in their makefiles a default RTE_TARGET directory to be
used in case RTE_TARGET is not set. Rather than just using a hard-coded
default, we can instead detect what the build directory is relative to
RTE_SDK directory.

This fixes a potential issue for anyone who continues to build using
"make install T=x86_64-native-linuxapp-gcc" and skips setting RTE_TARGET
explicitly, instead relying on the fact that they were building in a
directory which corresponded to the example default path - which was
changed to "x86_64-native-linux-gcc" by commit 218c4e68c1 ("mk: use
linux and freebsd in config names").

218c4e68c1 mk: use linux and freebsd in config names
Rather than using linuxapp and bsdapp everywhere, we can change things to
use the, more readable, terms "linux" and "freebsd" in our build configs.
Rather than renaming the configs we can just duplicate the existing ones
with the new names using symlinks, and use the new names exclusively
internally. ["make showconfigs" also only shows the new names to keep the
list short] The result is that backward compatibility is kept fully but any
new builds or development can be done using the newer names, i.e.  both
"make config T=x86_64-native-linuxapp-gcc" and "T=x86_64-native-linux-gcc"
work.

ab3ce1e0c1 ethdev: remove old offload API
In DPDK 17.11, the ethdev offloads API has changed:
	commit cba7f53b71 ("ethdev: introduce Tx queue offloads API")
	commit ce17eddefc ("ethdev: introduce Rx queue offloads API")
The new API is documented in the programmer's guide:
	http://doc.dpdk.org/guides/prog_guide/poll_mode_drv.html#hardware-offload

For reminder, the main concepts in the new API were:
	- All offloads are disabled by default
	- Distinction between per port and per queue offloads.

The transition bits are now removed:
	- Translation of the old API in ethdev
	- rte_eth_conf.rxmode.ignore_offload_bitfield
	- ETH_TXQ_FLAGS_IGNORE

The old API bits are now removed:
	- Rx per-port rte_eth_conf.rxmode.[bit-fields]
	- Tx per-queue rte_eth_txconf.txq_flags
	- ETH_TXQ_FLAGS_NO*

fa47405cc1 ethdev: remove experimental flag of ports enumeration
The basic operations for ports enumeration should not be
considered as experimental in DPDK 18.05.

The iterator RTE_ETH_FOREACH_DEV was introduced in DPDK 17.05.
It uses the function the rte_eth_find_next_owned_by() to get
only ownerless ports. Its API can be considered stable.
So the flag experimental is removed from rte_eth_find_next_owned_by().

The flag experimental is removed from rte_eth_dev_count_avail()
which is the new name of the old function rte_eth_dev_count().

The flag experimental is set to rte_eth_dev_count_total()
in the .c file for consistency with the declaration in the .h file.

A lot of internal applications are fixed to not allow experimental API.

d9a42a69fe ethdev: deprecate port count function
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.

In order to fix this common mistake in all external applications,
the function rte_eth_dev_count is deprecated, while introducing
the new functions rte_eth_dev_count_avail and rte_eth_dev_count_total.

There are three consequences when using such wrong design:

    - old ports being detached (RTE_ETH_DEV_UNUSED) can be valid

Such mistake will be less common with growing hotplug awareness.

89f0711f9d examples: build some samples with meson
Add support for having selected example apps built as part of a meson,
ninja build. By default none are built, and those to be built should be
named directly in the -Dexamples='' meson configuration argument.

This is useful for developers working on a feature who want to use a
suitable example, or examples, to test that feature, as they can compile
everything up in one go, and run the example without having to do a ninja
install first.

This commit adds examples which don't consist of multiple apps in
subdirectories to the meson build, so they can be built by default by
passing -Dexamples parameter to meson.

Not included are the following examples:
* ethtool
* multi-process
* netmap_compat
* performance-thread
* quota_watermark
* server_node_efd
* vm_power_manager

To test the apps added here, use the following command, merged to one line,
to add them to your meson build (command to be run inside the build
directory):

meson configure -Dexamples=bbdev_app,bond,cmdline,distributor,\
	eventdev_pipeline_sw_pmd, exception_path,helloworld,\
	ip_fragmentation,ip_pipeline,ip_reassembly, ipsec-secgw,\

when mbuf size is exaclty 2KB or less, that causes
ixgbe PMD to select scattered RX even for configs with 'normal'
max packet length (max_rx_pkt_len == ETHER_MAX_LEN).
To overcome that problem and unify the code, new macro was created

When appropriate, samples are updated to use that macro.

ea0c20ea95 apps: use helper to create mbuf pools
When it's possible, use the new helper to create the mbuf pools.
Most of the patch is trivial, except for the following files that
have some specifics (indirect mbufs):
- ip_fragmentation
- ip_pipeline
- ipv4_multicast
- vhost

7107e471a6 examples/skeleton: very simple code for packet forwarding
This is a very simple example app for doing packet forwarding with the
Intel DPDK. It's designed to serve as a start point for people new to
the Intel DPDK and who want to develop a new app.

Therefore it's meant to:
* have as good a performance out-of-the-box as possible, using the
  best-known settings for configuring the PMDs, so that any new apps can
  be based off it.
* be kept as short as possible to make it easy to understand it and get
  started with it.
