Removed DEV_RX_OFFLOAD_CRC_STRIP offload flag.
Without any specific Rx offload flag, default behavior by PMDs is to
strip CRC.
PMDs that support keeping CRC should advertise DEV_RX_OFFLOAD_KEEP_CRC
Rx offload capability.
Applications that require keeping CRC should check PMD capability first
and if it is supported can enable this feature by setting
DEV_RX_OFFLOAD_KEEP_CRC in Rx offload flag in rte_eth_dev_configure()

The rte_flow meaning of zero flow mask configuration is to match all
the range of the item value.
For example, the flow eth / ipv4 dst spec 1.2.3.4 dst mask 0.0.0.0
should much all the ipv4 traffic from the rte_flow API perspective.
>From some kernel perspectives the above rule means to ignore all the
ipv4 traffic (e.g. Ubuntu 16.04, 4.15.10).
Due to the fact that the tap PMD should provide the rte_flow meaning,
it is necessary to ignore the spec in case the mask is zero when it
forwards such like flows to the kernel.
So, the above rule should be translated to eth / ipv4 to get the
correct meaning.
Ignore spec configurations when the mask is zero.

The TAP keep-alive queue was created in order to keep the TAP device
in Linux even in case all of its Rx/Tx queues are released (in Linux
terminology: even in case all of the TAP device file descriptors are
closed), however, the keep-alive queue itself is attached to the TAP
device like all other Rx/Tx queues and therefore the kernel will
enqueue to it some Rx packets based on the kernel RSS distribution
rules. Those packets are unknown to the application and will remain
lost in the keep-alive queue.
All queues are attached by default to the TAP device after they are
created though TUNSETIFF ioctl call.
The fix is to detach the keep-alive queue after its creation through
TUNSETQUEUE ioctl call.

TAP device is created following its first queue creation. Multiple
queues can be added or removed over time. In Linux terminology those
are file descriptors which are opened or closed over time. As long as
the number of opened file descriptors is positive - TAP device will
appear as a Linux device. In case all queues are released (the
equivalent of all file descriptors being closed) the TAP device will
be removed. This can lead to abnormalities in different scenarios
where the TAP device should exist even if all its queues are released.
In order to make TAP existence independent of its number of queues -
an extra file descriptor is opened on TAP creation and is closed on
TAP closure. Its only purpose is to serve as a keep-alive mechanism
for the TAP device.

Running testpmd command "flow isolae <port> 0" (i.e. disabling flow

PMD: Kernel refused TC filter rule creation (17): File exists
Root cause analysis: when disabling flow isolation we keep the local
rule to redirect packets on TX (TAP_REMOTE_TX index) while we add it
again when enabling flow isolation. As a result this rule is added
two times in a row which results in "File exists" error.
The fix is to identify the "File exists" error and silently ignore it.
Another issue occurs when enabling isolation mode several times in a

rte_flow structs are added to a linked list before removing the
previous rte_flow structs.

TPID handling in rte_flow VLAN and E_TAG pattern item definitions is not
consistent with the normal stacking order of pattern items, which is
confusing to applications.
Problem is that when followed by one of these layers, the EtherType field
of the preceding layer keeps its "inner" definition, and the "outer" TPID
is provided by the subsequent layer, the reverse of how a packet looks like
on the wire:
Wire: [ ETH TPID = A | VLAN EtherType = B | B DATA ]
rte_flow: [ ETH EtherType = B | VLAN TPID = A | B DATA ]
Worse, when QinQ is involved, the stacking order of VLAN layers is
unspecified. It is unclear whether it should be reversed (innermost to
outermost) as well given TPID applies to the previous layer:
Wire: [ ETH TPID = A | VLAN TPID = B | VLAN EtherType = C | C DATA ]
rte_flow 1: [ ETH EtherType = C | VLAN TPID = B | VLAN TPID = A | C DATA ]
rte_flow 2: [ ETH EtherType = C | VLAN TPID = A | VLAN TPID = B | C DATA ]
While specifying EtherType/TPID is hopefully rarely necessary, the stacking
order in case of QinQ and the lack of documentation remain an issue.
This patch replaces TPID in the VLAN pattern item with an inner
EtherType/TPID as is usually done everywhere else (e.g. struct vlan_hdr),
clarifies documentation and updates all relevant code.
It breaks ABI compatibility for the following public functions:
- rte_flow_copy()
- rte_flow_create()
- rte_flow_query()
- rte_flow_validate()
Summary of changes for PMDs that implement ETH, VLAN or E_TAG pattern
items:
- bnxt: EtherType matching is supported with and without VLAN, but TPID
matching is not and triggers an error.
- e1000: EtherType matching is only supported with the ETHERTYPE filter,
which does not support VLAN matching, therefore no impact.
- enic: same as bnxt.
- i40e: same as bnxt with existing FDIR limitations on allowed EtherType

RSS hash types (ETH_RSS_* macros defined in rte_ethdev.h) describe the
protocol header fields of a packet that must be taken into account while
computing RSS.
When facing encapsulated (e.g. tunneled) packets, there is an ambiguity as
to whether these should apply to inner or outer packets. Applications need
the ability to tell exactly "where" RSS must be performed.
This is addressed by adding encapsulation level information to the RSS flow
action. Its default value is 0 and stands for the usual unspecified
behavior. Other values provide a specific encapsulation level.
Contrary to the change announced by commit 676b605182 ("doc: announce
ethdev API change for RSS configuration"), this patch does not affect
struct rte_eth_rss_conf but struct rte_flow_action_rss as the former is not
used anymore by the RSS flow action. ABI impact is therefore limited to
rte_flow.

Since its inception, the rte_flow RSS action has been relying in part on
external struct rte_eth_rss_conf for compatibility with the legacy RSS API.
This structure lacks parameters such as the hash algorithm to use, and more
recently, a method to tell which layer RSS should be performed on [1].
Given struct rte_eth_rss_conf will never be flexible enough to represent a
complete RSS configuration (e.g. RETA table), this patch supersedes it by
extending the rte_flow RSS action directly.
A subsequent patch will add a field to use a non-default RSS hash
algorithm. To that end, a field named "types" replaces the field formerly
known as "rss_hf" and standing for "RSS hash functions" as it was
confusing. Actual RSS hash function types are defined by enum
rte_eth_hash_function.
This patch updates all PMDs and example applications accordingly.
It breaks ABI compatibility for the following public functions:
- rte_flow_copy()

This patch makes the following changes to flow rule actions:
- List order now matters, they are redefined as performed first to last
instead of "all simultaneously".
- Repeated actions are now supported (e.g. specifying QUEUE multiple times
now duplicates traffic among them). Previously only the last action of
any given kind was taken into account.
- No more distinction between terminating/non-terminating/meta actions.
Flow rules themselves are now defined as always terminating unless a
PASSTHRU action is specified.
These changes alter the behavior of flow rules in corner cases in order to
prepare the flow API for actions that modify traffic contents or properties
(e.g. encapsulation, compression) and for which order matter when combined.
Previously one would have to do so through multiple flow rules by combining
PASSTRHU with priority levels, however this proved overly complex to
implement at the PMD level, hence this simpler approach.
This breaks ABI compatibility for the following public functions:
- rte_flow_create()
- rte_flow_validate()
PMDs with rte_flow support are modified accordingly:
- bnxt: no change, implementation already forbids multiple actions and does
not support PASSTHRU.
- e1000: no change, same as bnxt.
- enic: modified to forbid redundant actions, no support for default drop.
- failsafe: no change needed.
- i40e: no change, implementation already forbids multiple actions.
- ixgbe: same as i40e.
- mlx4: modified to forbid multiple fate-deciding actions and drop when
unspecified.
- mlx5: same as mlx4, with other redundant actions also forbidden.
- sfc: same as mlx4.
- tap: implementation already complies with the new behavior except for
the default pass-through modified as a default drop.

testpmd calls rte_eth_promiscuous_enable() while during the execution

As a result the TAP PMD is trying to add tc (traffic control command)
promiscuous rules to the remote netvsc device consecutively. From the
kernel point of view it is seen as an attempt to add the same rule more
than once. In recent kernels (e.g. version 4.13) this attempt is rejected
with a "File exists" error. In less recent kernels (e.g. version 4.4) the
same rule may have been successfully accepted twice, which is undesirable.
In the corrupted code every tc promiscuous rule included a different
handle number parameter. If instead an identical handle number is
used for all tc promiscuous rules - all kernels will reject the second
identical rule with a "File exists" error, which is easy to identify and
to silently ignore.

redirects those packets to the matched queue.
It is expected that skb->cb[1] has been previously set with a valid RSS
queue number during an eBPF action (section "l3_l4" in tap_bpf_program.c).
However, for non-RSS flows, skb->cb[1] may contain a random unset value,
which could falsely be interpreted as a valid RSS queue.
To avoid this potential error, tap_bpf_program.c has been updated as
follows:
1. After calculating the RSS queue number, it is added a unique offset in
order to uniquely identify it as a valid RSS queue number.
2. After matching an RSS queue to a packet, skb->cb[1] is set to 0.

TAP device is supporting multi segments Tx, however this capability is
not reported when querying the TAP device.
This commit adds this capability report.

TAP is a virtual device created on Kernel. The speed of interface is
set by Kernel to a fixed static value. But this does not prevent using
RX or TX to rate limit. Hence removing the option from user arguments.

This commit addresses a case of RSS and non RSS flows mixture.
In the corrupted code, if a non-RSS flow is destroyed, it has an eBPF map
index 0 (initialized upon flow creation). This might unintentionally remove
RSS entry 0 from eBPF map.
To fix this issue, add an offset to the real index during a KEY_CMD_GET
operation, and subtract this offset during a KEY_CMD_RELEASE operation, in
order to restore the real index.
Thus, if a non RSS flow is falsely trying to release map entry 0 - The
offset subtraction will calculate the real map index as an
out-of-range value, and the release operation will be silently ignored.
