6d13ea8e8e net: add rte prefix to ether structures
Add 'rte_' prefix to structures:
- rename struct ether_addr as struct rte_ether_addr.
- rename struct ether_hdr as struct rte_ether_hdr.
- rename struct vlan_hdr as struct rte_vlan_hdr.
- rename struct vxlan_hdr as struct rte_vxlan_hdr.
- rename struct vxlan_gpe_hdr as struct rte_vxlan_gpe_hdr.

Do not update the command line library to avoid adding a dependency to
librte_net.

5294b80029 ethdev: avoid explicit check of valid port state
Some port iterations are manually checking against RTE_ETH_DEV_UNUSED
instead of using the iterators based on rte_eth_find_next().

A new macro RTE_ETH_FOREACH_VALID_DEV() is introduced, but kept private
because there should be no need of iterating over all devices in the
API. The public iterators have additional filters for ownership, parent
device or sibling ports.

b7ed955a20 ethdev: deprecate legacy filter API
As stated in the deprecation notice from December 2016,
"the legacy filter API, including rte_eth_dev_filter_supported(),
rte_eth_dev_filter_ctrl() as well as filter types MACVLAN, ETHERTYPE,
FLEXIBLE, SYN, NTUPLE, TUNNEL, FDIR, HASH and L2_TUNNEL, is superseded
by the generic flow API (rte_flow)".

After a long wait of more than two years, the legacy filter API
is marked as deprecated, while still tested with testpmd and
the tep_termination example.

The next step will be to announce a deadline for complete removal.
As preparation of the removal of rte_eth_ctrl.h,
RTE_ETH_FLOW_*, RTE_TUNNEL_TYPE_* and RTE_ETH_HASH_FUNCTION_* definitions
are moved to rte_ethdev.h and rte_flow.h.

1ccdc31793 ethdev: remove experimental tag for iterator API
After removing the function rte_eth_dev_attach(),
there are two replacement solutions possible:
one using probe event notification, and one using a new iterator.
So the application can get the new probed ports either asynchronously
or synchronously.

The iterator API is new in DPDK 18.11 so they got the experimental
tag by policy. It causes an issue for strict applications which do
not use experimental functions, and want to use the synchronous method.

The replacement for removed API should not be experimental.
That's why the experimental status of the ethdev iterator is removed.

214ed1acd1 ethdev: add iterator to match devargs input
The iterator will return the ethdev port ids matching a devargs string.
It is recommended to use the macro RTE_ETH_FOREACH_MATCHING_DEV()
for usage convenience.

The class string is prefixed with '+' in order to skip the validation
of the parameter keys. It is tolerated for the compatibility with
the old (current) syntax where all parameters (bus, class and driver)
are mixed in the same string without any delimiter.
Thanks to this compatibility prefix, the driver parameters will be
skipped during the ethdev parsing, and not considered invalid.

A macro is introduced in rte_common.h to workaround a const field.
This hack is needed to free const strings in the iterator.
It is preferred to keep the const for these fields, because it gives
a hint that they are not changed at each iteration.

7307cf6333 ethdev: add raw encapsulation action
Currenlty the encap/decap actions only support encapsulation
of VXLAN and NVGRE L2 packets (L2 encapsulation is where
the inner packet has a valid Ethernet header, while L3 encapsulation
is where the inner packet doesn't have the Ethernet header).
In addtion the parameter to to the encap action is a list of rte items,
this results in 2 extra translation, between the application to the
actioni and from the action to the NIC. This results in negative impact
on the insertion performance.

Looking forward there are going to be a need to support many more tunnel
encapsulations. For example MPLSoGRE, MPLSoUDP.
Adding the new encapsulation will result in duplication of code.
For example the code for handling NVGRE and VXLAN are exactly the same,
and each new tunnel will have the same exact structure.

This patch introduce a raw encapsulation that can support L2 tunnel types
and L3 tunnel types. In addtion the new
encapsulations commands are using raw buffer inorder to save the
converstion time, both for the application and the PMD.

In order to encapsulate L3 tunnel type there is a need to use both
actions in the same rule: The decap to remove the L2 of the original
packet, and then encap command to encapsulate the packet with the
tunnel.
For decap L3 there is also a need to use both commands in the same flow
first the decap command to remove the outer tunnel header and then encap
to add the L2 header.

The metadata is an opaque item, fully controlled by the application.

The use of metadata is relevant for egress rules only.
It can be set in the flow rule using the RTE_FLOW_ITEM_META.

An additional member 'tx_metadata' is added in union with existing member
'hash' of struct 'rte_mbuf', located to avoid conflicts with existing
fields. This additional member is used to carry the metadata item.

Application should set the packet metadata in the mbuf dedicated field,
and set the PKT_TX_METADATA flag in the mbuf->ol_flags.
The NIC will use the packet metadata as match criteria for relevant
flow rules.

This patch introduces metadata item type for rte_flow RTE_FLOW_ITEM_META,
along with corresponding struct rte_flow_item_meta and ol_flag
PKT_TX_METADATA.

23ea57a2a0 ethdev: complete closing of port
After closing a port, it cannot be restarted.
So there is no reason to not free all associated resources.

The last step was done with rte_eth_dev_detach() which is deprecated.
Instead of blindly removing the associated rte_device, the driver should
check if no more port (ethdev, cryptodev, etc) is open for the device.

The last ethdev freeing which were done by rte_eth_dev_detach(),
are now done at the end of rte_eth_dev_close() if the driver supports
the flag RTE_ETH_DEV_CLOSE_REMOVE.
There will be a transition period for PMDs to enable this new flag
and migrate to the new behaviour.
When enabling RTE_ETH_DEV_CLOSE_REMOVE, the PMD must free all its
private resources for the port, in its dev_close function.
It is advised to call the dev_close function in the remove function
in order to support removing a device without closing its ports.

Some drivers does not allocate MAC addresses dynamically or separately.
In those cases, the pointer is set to NULL, in order to avoid wrongly
freeing them in rte_eth_dev_release_port().

A closed port will have the state RTE_ETH_DEV_UNUSED which is
considered as invalid by rte_eth_dev_is_valid_port().
So validity is not checked anymore for closed ports in testpmd.

662dbc322d ethdev: remove release function for secondary process
After previous changes, the function rte_eth_dev_release_port()
can be used for primary or secondary process as well.
The only difference with rte_eth_dev_release_port_secondary()
is the shared lock used in rte_eth_dev_release_port().

The function rte_eth_dev_release_port_secondary() was recently
added in 18.11 cycle.

e16adf08e5 ethdev: free all common data when releasing port
This is a clean-up of common ethdev data freeing.
All data freeing are moved to rte_eth_dev_release_port()
and done only in case of primary process.

It is probably fixing some memory leaks for PMDs which were
not freeing all data.
