DPDK firmware variant supports equal stride super-buffer Rx mode which
provides higher packet rate and packet marks but requires dedicated
mempool manager with contiguous object block allocation (e.g. bucket).
Also the firmware supports subvariant without checksumming on Tx which
allows to reach higher packet rates on transmit if checksumming is not
required.

Packed stream firmware variant on EF10 adapters has a
number of properties which must be taken into account:
- Only one exclusive RSS context is available per port.
- Only IP addresses can contribute to the hash value.
Huntington and Medford have one more limitation which
is important for the drivers capable of packed stream:
- Hash algorithm is non-standard (i.e. non-Toeplitz).
This implies XORing together source + destination
IP addresses (or last four bytes in the case of IPv6)
and using the result as the input to a Toeplitz hash.
This patch provides a number of improvements in order
to treat the mentioned limitations in the common code.

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
values. The remaining filter types (VXLAN, NVGRE, QINQ) do not support
EtherType matching.

E-Tag macro definition.

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()
- rte_flow_create()
- rte_flow_query()
