e3f3b68c6e ring: make tailq fully local
Since the data structures such as rings are shared in their entirety,
those TAILQ pointers are shared as well. Meaning that, after a
successful rte_ring creation, the tailq_next pointer of the last
ring in the TAILQ will be updated with a pointer to a ring which may
not be present in the address space of another process (i.e. a ring
that may be host-local or guest-local, and not shared over IVSHMEM).
Any successive ring create/lookup on the other side of IVSHMEM will
result in trying to dereference an invalid pointer.

This patchset fixes this problem by creating a default tailq entry
that may be used by any data structure that chooses to use TAILQs.
This default TAILQ entry will consist of a tailq_next/tailq_prev
pointers, and an opaque pointer to arbitrary data. All TAILQ
pointers from data structures themselves will be removed and
replaced by those generic TAILQ entries, thus fixing the problem
of potentially exposing local address space to shared structures.

6f41fe75e2 eal: deprecate rte_snprintf
The function rte_snprintf serves no useful purpose. It is the
same as snprintf() for all valid inputs. Deprecate it and
replace all uses in current code.

Leave the tests for the deprecated function in place.

e8ed6c7817 eal: fix usage of printf-like functions
Mark the rte_log, cmdline_printf and rte_snprintf functions as
being printf-style functions. This causes compilation errors
due to mis-matched parameter types, so the parameter types are
fixed where appropriate.

3031749c2d remove trailing whitespaces
This commit removes trailing whitespace from lines in files. Almost all
files are affected, as the BSD license copyright header had trailing
whitespace on 4 lines in it [hence the number of files reporting 8 lines
changed in the diffstat].

591a9d7985 add FILE argument to debug functions
The DPDK dump functions are useful for remote debugging of an
applications. But when application runs as a daemon, stdout
is typically routed to /dev/null.

Instead change all these functions to take a stdio FILE * handle
instead. An application can then use open_memstream() to capture
the output.

40b966a211 ivshmem: library changes for mmaping using ivshmem
These library changes provide a new Intel DPDK feature for communicating
with virtual machines using QEMU's IVSHMEM mechanism.

The feature works by providing a command line for QEMU to map several hugepages
into a single IVSHMEM device. For the guest to know what is inside any given IVSHMEM
device (and to distinguish between Intel(R) DPDK and non-Intel(R) DPDK IVSHMEM
devices), a metadata file is also mapped into the IVSHMEM segment. No work needs to
be done by the guest application to map IVSHMEM devices into memory; they are
automatically recognized by the Intel(R) DPDK Environment Abstraction Layer (EAL).

Changes in this patch:
* Changes to EAL to allow mapping of all hugepages in a memseg into a single file
* Changes to EAL to allow ivshmem devices to be transparently mapped in
  the process running on the guest.
* New ivshmem library to create and manage metadata exported to guest VM's
* New ivshmem compilation targets
* Mempool and ring changes to allow export of structures to a VM and allow
  a VM to attach to those structures.
* New autotests to unit tests this functionality.
