49da4e82cf kni: allocate no more mbuf than empty slots in queue
In kni_allocate_mbufs(), we attempt to add max_burst (32) count of mbuf
always into alloc_q, which is excessively leading too many rte_pktmbuf_
free() when alloc_q is contending at high packet rate (for eg 10Gig data).
In a situation when alloc_q fifo can only accommodate very few (or zero)
mbuf, create only what needed and add in fifo.

With this patch, we could stop random network stall in KNI at higher packet
rate (eg 1G or 10G data between vEth0 and PMD) sufficiently exhausting
alloc_q on above condition. I tested i40e PMD for this purpose in ppc64le.

814baffdb6 mbuf: fix debug checks for headroom and tailroom
rte_pktmbuf_headroom() and rte_pktmbuf_tailroom() should be usable
with any segment, not only with headered ones, so is_header should be 0
when we call for sanity check inside them.

cb327a7802 mbuf: reduce pktmbuf init cycles
There is no need for initializing the complete
packet buffer with zero as the packet data area will be
overwritten by the NIC Rx HW anyway.

The testpmd configures the packet mempool
with around 180k buffers with
2176B size. In existing scheme, the init routine
needs to memset around ~370MB vs the proposed scheme
requires only around ~22MB on 128B cache aligned system.

Useful in running DPDK in HW simulators/emulators,
where millions of cycles have an impact on boot time.

1b72605d24 mem: balanced allocation of hugepages
Currently EAL allocates hugepages one by one not paying attention
from which NUMA node allocation was done.

Such behaviour leads to allocation failure if number of available
hugepages for application limited by cgroups or hugetlbfs and
memory requested not only from the first socket.

Example:
	# 90 x 1GB hugepages availavle in a system

	cgcreate -g hugetlb:/test
	# Limit to 32GB of hugepages
	cgset -r hugetlb.1GB.limit_in_bytes=34359738368 test
	# Request 4GB from each of 2 sockets
	cgexec -g hugetlb:test testpmd --socket-mem=4096,4096 ...

	EAL: SIGBUS: Cannot mmap more hugepages of size 1024 MB
	EAL: 32 not 90 hugepages of size 1024 MB allocated
	EAL: Not enough memory available on socket 1!
	     Requested: 4096MB, available: 0MB
	PANIC in rte_eal_init():
	Cannot init memory

	This happens beacause all allocated pages are
	on socket 0.

Fix this issue by setting mempolicy MPOL_PREFERRED for each hugepage
to one of requested nodes using following schema:

	1) Allocate essential hugepages:
		1.1) Allocate as many hugepages from numa N to
		     only fit requested memory for this numa.
		1.2) repeat 1.1 for all numa nodes.
	2) Try to map all remaining free hugepages in a round-robin
	   fashion.
	3) Sort pages and choose the most suitable.

In this case all essential memory will be allocated and all remaining
pages will be fairly distributed between all requested nodes.

New config option RTE_EAL_NUMA_AWARE_HUGEPAGES introduced and
enabled by default for linuxapp except armv7 and dpaa2.
Enabling of this option adds libnuma as a dependency for EAL.

73e6b8c93d eventdev: introduce burst mode capability
Introducing the burst mode capability flag to express the event device
is capable of operating in burst mode for enqueue(forward, release) and
dequeue operation. If the device is not capable, then the application
still uses the rte_event_dequeue_burst() and rte_event_enqueue_burst()
but PMD accepts only one event at a time which is any way transparent
with the current rte_event_*_burst API semantics.

It solves two purposes:
1) Fix performance regression on the PMD which supports only nonburst
mode, and this issue is two-fold.

Typically the burst_worker main loop consists of following pseudo code:

while(1)
{
	uint16_t nb_rx = rte_event_dequeue_burst(ev,..);

	for (i=0; i < nb_rx; i++) {
		process(ev[i]);
		if (is_release_required(ev[i]))
			release_the_event(ev);
	}

        uint16_t nb_tx = rte_event_enqueue_burst(dev_id, port_id,
                                events, nb_rx);
        while (nb_tx < nb_rx)
            nb_tx += rte_event_enqueue_burst(dev_id, port_id,
            events + nb_tx, nb_rx - nb_tx);
}

Typically the non_burst_worker main loop consists of following pseudo code:
while(1)
{
    uint16_t nb_rx = rte_event_dequeue_burst(&ev, , 1);
    if (!nb_rx)
        continue;
    process(ev);
    while (rte_event_enqueue_burst(dev, port, &ev, 1) != 1);
}

Following overhead has been seen on nonburst mode capable PMDs with
burst mode version
- Extra explicit release(PMD does release on implicitly on next
dequeue) and thus avoids the cost additional driver function overhead.
- Extra "for" loop for event processing which compiler cannot detect at
runtime

2) Simplify the application configuration by avoiding the application to
find the correct enqueue and dequeue depth across different PMD.
If burst mode is not supported then, PMD can ignore depth field.
This will enable to write portable applications and makes
RFC eventdev_pipeline application works on OCTEONTX PMD
http://dpdk.org/dev/patchwork/patch/23799/

If an application wishes to get the maximum performance on nonburst
capable PMD then the application can write the code in a way that by
keeping packet processing function as inline functions and launch the
workers based on the capability.
The generic burst based worker still work on those PMDs without
any code change but this scheme needed only when the application wants
to gets the maximum performance out of nonburst capable PMDs.

This patch is based the on the real world test cases
http://dpdk.org/dev/patchwork/patch/24832/, Where without this scheme
20.9% performance drop observed per core.

See worker_wrapper(), perf_queue_worker(), perf_queue_worker_burst()
functions to use this scheme in a portable way without losing performance
on both sets of PMDs and achieving the portability.

b1b3d9f905 eventdev: make vdev init and uninit functions optional
Made libeventdev library independent of VDEV bus by moving vdev pmd
specific function to rte_eventdev_pmd_vdev.h header file. Eventdev VDEV
PMD can include that for generic eventdev VDEV init and uninit function
enablement.

6d0784e491 eventdev: restructure release function
Remove rte_event_dev_close() from rte_event_pmd_release() function so
that rte_event_pmd_release() can be used in stateless way. This will
enable rte_event_pmd_vdev_uninit() function to avoid using
eventdev_globals global variable and the need for exposing the a
global variable to PMD.
