When RTE_MBUF_REFCNT_ATOMIC=n, the decrement of the mbuf reference

We cannot replace rte_atomic16_add_return() by rte_mbuf_refcnt_update()

Many exported headers rely on definitions found in rte_config.h without
including it, as shown by the following command:
grep -L '^#include <rte_config.h>' -- \
$(grep -Rl \
$(sed -n '/^#define \([^ ]\+\).*$/{s//\1/;H;};${x;s/\n//;s/\n/\\|/g;p;}' \
build/include/rte_config.h) \
-- build/include/)
We cannot assume external applications will include rte_config.h on their
own, neither directly nor through a -include parameter like DPDK does
internally.
This not only causes obvious compilation failures that can be reproduced
with check-includes.sh such as:

this scope
#define __rte_cache_aligned __rte_aligned(RTE_CACHE_LINE_SIZE)

PKT_RX_VLAN_PKT and PKT_RX_QINQ_PKT are deprecated for a while.
As explained in [1], these flags were kept to let the applications and
PMDs move to the new flag. There is also a need to support Rx vlan
offload without vlan strip (at least for the ixgbe driver).
This patch renames the old flags for this feature, knowing that some
PMDs were using PKT_RX_VLAN_PKT and PKT_RX_QINQ_PKT to indicate that
the vlan tci has been saved in the mbuf structure.
It is likely that some PMDs do not set the proper flags when doing vlan
offload, and it would be worth making a pass on all of them.

On i686 builds, the uin64_t type is 64-bits in size but is aligned to
32-bits only. This causes mbuf fields for rearm_data to not be 16-byte
aligned on 32-bit builds, which causes errors with some vector PMDs which
expect the rearm data to be aligned as on 64-bit.
Given that we cannot use the extra space in the data structures anyway, as
it's already used on 64-bit builds, we can just force alignment of the
physical address in the mbuf to 8-bytes in all cases. This has no effect on
64-bit systems, but fixes the updated PMDs on 32-bit.

Set the value of m->refcnt to 1, m->nb_segs to 1 and m->next
to NULL when the mbuf is stored inside the mempool (unused).
This is done in rte_pktmbuf_prefree_seg(), before freeing or
recycling a mbuf.
Before this patch, the value of m->refcnt was expected to be 0
while in pool.
The objectives are:
- to avoid drivers to set m->next to NULL in the early Rx path, since
this field is in the second 64B of the mbuf and its access could
trigger a cache miss
- rationalize the behavior of raw_alloc/raw_free: one is now the
symmetric of the other, and refcnt is never changed in these functions.
To optimize the freeing of the segments, we try try to only update
m->refcnt, m->next, and m->nb_segs when it's required (idea from
Konstantin Ananyev <konstantin.ananyev@intel.com>).

Added API for `rte_eth_tx_prepare`
uint16_t rte_eth_tx_prepare(uint8_t port_id, uint16_t queue_id,
struct rte_mbuf **tx_pkts, uint16_t nb_pkts)
Added fields to the `struct rte_eth_desc_lim`:
uint16_t nb_seg_max;
/**< Max number of segments per whole packet. */
uint16_t nb_mtu_seg_max;
/**< Max number of segments per one MTU */
These fields can be used to create valid packets according to the
following rules:
* For non-TSO packet, a single transmit packet may span up to
"nb_mtu_seg_max" buffers.
* For TSO packet the total number of data descriptors is "nb_seg_max",
and each segment within the TSO may span up to "nb_mtu_seg_max".
Added functions:
int
rte_validate_tx_offload(struct rte_mbuf *m)
to validate general requirements for tx offload set in mbuf of packet
such a flag completness. In current implementation this function is
called optionaly when RTE_LIBRTE_ETHDEV_DEBUG is enabled.
int rte_net_intel_cksum_prepare(struct rte_mbuf *m)
to prepare pseudo header checksum for TSO and non-TSO tcp/udp packets
before hardware tx checksum offload.
- for non-TSO tcp/udp packets full pseudo-header checksum is
counted and set.
- for TSO the IP payload length is not included.
int
rte_net_intel_cksum_flags_prepare(struct rte_mbuf *m, uint64_t ol_flags)
this function uses same logic as rte_net_intel_cksum_prepare, but
allows application to choose which offloads should be taken into
account, if full preparation is not required.
PERFORMANCE TESTS
-----------------
This feature was tested with modified csum engine from test-pmd.
The packet checksum preparation was moved from application to Tx
preparation step placed before burst.
We may expect some overhead costs caused by:
1) using additional callback before burst,
2) rescanning burst,
3) additional condition checking (packet validation),
4) worse optimization (e.g. packet data access, etc.)
We tested it using ixgbe Tx preparation implementation with some parts
disabled to have comparable information about the impact of different
parts of implementation.
IMPACT:
1) For unimplemented Tx preparation callback the performance impact is
negligible,
2) For packet condition check without checksum modifications (nb_segs,
available offloads, etc.) is 14626628/14252168 (~2.62% drop),
3) Full support in ixgbe driver (point 2 + packet checksum
initialization) is 14060924/13588094 (~3.48% drop)

Following discussions in [1] and [2], introduce a new bit to
describe the Rx checksum status in mbuf.
Before this patch, only one flag was available:
PKT_RX_L4_CKSUM_BAD: L4 cksum of RX pkt. is not OK.
And same for L3:
PKT_RX_IP_CKSUM_BAD: IP cksum of RX pkt. is not OK.
This had 2 issues:
- it was not possible to differentiate "checksum good" from
"checksum unknown".
- it was not possible for a virtual driver to say "the checksum
in packet may be wrong, but data integrity is valid".
This patch tries to solve this issue by having 4 states (2 bits)
for the IP and L4 Rx checksums. New values are:
- PKT_RX_L4_CKSUM_UNKNOWN: no information about the RX L4 checksum
-> the application should verify the checksum by sw
- PKT_RX_L4_CKSUM_BAD: the L4 checksum in the packet is wrong
-> the application can drop the packet without additional check
- PKT_RX_L4_CKSUM_GOOD: the L4 checksum in the packet is valid
-> the application can accept the packet without verifying the
checksum by sw
- PKT_RX_L4_CKSUM_NONE: the L4 checksum is not correct in the packet
data, but the integrity of the L4 data is verified.
-> the application can process the packet but must not verify the
checksum by sw. It has to take care to recalculate the cksum
if the packet is transmitted (either by sw or using tx offload)
And same for L3 (replace L4 by IP in description above).
This commit tries to be compatible with existing applications that
only check the existing flag (CKSUM_BAD).

performance by not resetting mbuf's fields to their default state.
This can be however problematic for mbuf consumers that need some
headroom, meaning that data_off field gets decremented after
allocation. When the mbuf is re-used afterwards, there might not
be enough room for the consumer to prepend anything, if the data_off
field is not reset to its default value.
