Existing service functions allow us to stop a service, but doing so doesn't
guarantee that the service has finished running on a service core. This
commit introduces rte_service_may_be_active(), which returns whether the
service may be executing on one or more lcores currently, or definitely is
not.
The service core layer supports this function by setting a flag when
a service core is going to execute a service, and unsetting the flag when
the core is no longer able to run the service (its runstate becomes stopped
or the lcore is no longer mapped).
With this new function, applications can set a service's runstate to
stopped, then poll rte_service_may_be_active() until it returns false. At
that point, the service is quiesced.

Add APIs that allow an application to query and reset the attributes of
a service lcore. Add one such new attribute, "loops", which is a
counter that tracks the number of times the service core has looped in
the service runner function. This is useful to applications that desire
a "liveness" check to make sure a service core is not stuck.

Previously, we were putting an exclusive lock to prevent secondary
processes spinning up while we are sending our messages. However,
using exclusive locks had an effect of disallowing multiple
simultaenous unrelated messages/requests being sent, which was
not the intention behind locking.
Fix it to put a shared lock on the directory. That way, we still
prevent secondary process initializations while sending data over

Where <base path> is set to either "/var/run" if run as root, or
$XDG_RUNTIME_DIR if run as non-root, with a fallback to /tmp if
$XDG_RUNTIME_DIR is not defined. So, for example, if run as root,

The original implementation used flock() locks, but was later
switched to using fcntl() locks for page locking, because
fcntl() locks allow locking parts of a file, which is useful
for single-file segments mode, where locking the entire file
isn't as useful because we still need to grow and shrink it.
However, according to fcntl()'s Ubuntu manpage [1], semantics of
fcntl() locks have a giant oversight:
This interface follows the completely stupid semantics of System
V and IEEE Std 1003.1-1988 (“POSIX.1”) that require that all
locks associated with a file for a given process are removed
when any file descriptor for that file is closed by that process.
This semantic means that applications must be aware of any files
that a subroutine library may access.
Basically, closing *any* fd with an fcntl() lock (which we do because
we don't want to leak fd's) will drop the lock completely.
So, in this commit, we will be reverting back to using flock() locks
everywhere. However, that still leaves the problem of locking parts
of a memseg list file in single file segments mode, and we will be
solving it with creating separate lock files per each page, and
tracking those with flock().
We will also be removing all of this tailq business and replacing it
with a simple array - saving a few bytes is not worth the extra
hassle of dealing with pointers and potential memory allocation
failures. Also, remove the tailq lock since it is not needed - these
fd lists are per-process, and within a given process, it is always
only one thread handling access to hugetlbfs.
So, first one to allocate a segment will create a lockfile, and put
a shared lock on it. When we're shrinking the page file, we will be
trying to take out a write lock on that lockfile, which would fail if
any other process is holding onto the lockfile as well. This way, we
can know if we can shrink the segment file. Also, if no other locks
are found in the lock list for a given memseg list, the memseg list
fd is automatically closed.
One other thing to note is, according to flock() Ubuntu manpage [2],
upgrading the lock from shared to exclusive is implemented by dropping
and reacquiring the lock, which is not atomic and thus would have
created race conditions. So, on attempting to perform operations in
hugetlbfs, we will take out a writelock on hugetlbfs directory, so
that only one process could perform hugetlbfs operations concurrently.

For non-legacy mode, we are preallocating space for hugepages, so
we know in advance which pages we will be able to allocate, and
which we won't. However, the init procedure was using hugepage
counts gathered from sysfs and paid no attention to hugepage
sizes that were actually available for reservation, and failed
on attempts to reserve unavailable pages.
Fix this by limiting total page counts by number of pages
actually preallocated.
Also, VA preallocate procedure only looks at mountpoints that are
available, and expects pages to exist if a mountpoint exists. That
might not necessarily be the case, so also check if there are
hugepages available for a particular page size on a particular

Regular expressions are not the best way to match a hierarchical
pattern like dynamic log levels. And the separator for dynamic
log levels is period which is the regex wildcard character.
A better solution is to use filename matching 'globbing' so
that log levels match like file paths. For compatibility,
use colon to separate pattern match style arguments. For
example:
--log-level 'pmd.net.virtio.*:debug'
This also makes the documentation match what really happens

Rather than attempting to load the contents of the auxv directly,
prefer to use an exposed API - and if that doesn't exist then attempt
to load the vector. This is because on some systems, when a user
is downgraded, the /proc/self/auxv file retains the old ownership
and permissions. The original method of /proc/self/auxv is retained.
This also removes a potential abort() in the code when compiled with
NDEBUG. A quick parse of the code shows that many (if not all) of
the CPU flag parsing isn't used internally, so it should be okay.

While debugging startup issues encountered with Clang (see "eal: fix

Such operations almost invariably cause undefined behavior with values that

According to GCC documentation [1], the __builtin_clz() family of functions
yield undefined behavior when fed a zero value. There is one instance in
the fbarray code where this can occur.
Clang (at least version 3.8.0-2ubuntu4) seems much more sensitive to this
than GCC and yields random results when compiling optimized code, as shown
below:
#include <stdio.h>
int main(void)
{
volatile unsigned long long moo;
int x;
moo = 0;
x = __builtin_clzll(moo);
printf("%d\n", x);
return 0;
}

63
$ clang -O3 -o test test.c && ./test
1742715559
$ clang -O0 -o test test.c && ./test
63
Even 63 can be considered an unexpected result given the number of leading
zeroes should be the full width of the underlying type, i.e. 64.
In practice it causes find_next_n() to sometimes return negative values
interpreted as errors by caller functions, which prevents DPDK applications

Since memory hotplug isn't supported on FreeBSD and in legacy mem

This enables multiprocess synchronization for memory hotplug
requests at runtime (as opposed to initialization).
Basic workflow is the following. Primary process always does initial
mapping and unmapping, and secondary processes always follow primary
page map. Only one allocation request can be active at any one time.
When primary allocates memory, it ensures that all other processes
have allocated the same set of hugepages successfully, otherwise
any allocations made are being rolled back, and heap is freed back.
Heap is locked throughout the process, and there is also a global
memory hotplug lock, so no race conditions can happen.
When primary frees memory, it frees the heap, deallocates affected
pages, and notifies other processes of deallocations. Since heap is
freed from that memory chunk, the area basically becomes invisible
to other processes even if they happen to fail to unmap that
specific set of pages, so it's completely safe to ignore results of
sync requests.
When secondary allocates memory, it does not do so by itself.
Instead, it sends a request to primary process to try and allocate
pages of specified size and on specified socket, such that a
specified heap allocation request could complete. Primary process
then sends all secondaries (including the requestor) a separate
notification of allocated pages, and expects all secondary
processes to report success before considering pages as "allocated".
Only after primary process ensures that all memory has been
successfully allocated in all secondary process, it will respond
positively to the initial request, and let secondary proceed with
the allocation. Since the heap now has memory that can satisfy
allocation request, and it was locked all this time (so no other
allocations could take place), secondary process will be able to
allocate memory from the heap.
When secondary frees memory, it hides pages to be deallocated from
the heap. Then, it sends a deallocation request to primary process,
so that it deallocates pages itself, and then sends a separate sync
request to all other processes (including the requestor) to unmap
the same pages. This way, even if secondary fails to notify other
processes of this deallocation, that memory will become invisible
to other processes, and will not be allocated from again.
So, to summarize: address space will only become part of the heap
if primary process can ensure that all other processes have
allocated this memory successfully. If anything goes wrong, the
worst thing that could happen is that a page will "leak" and will
not be available to neither DPDK nor the system, as some process
will still hold onto it. It's not an actual leak, as we can account
for the page - it's just that none of the processes will be able
to use this page for anything useful, until it gets allocated from
by the primary.
Due to underlying DPDK IPC implementation being single-threaded,
some asynchronous magic had to be done, as we need to complete
several requests before we can definitively allow secondary process
to use allocated memory (namely, it has to be present in all other
secondary processes before it can be used). Additionally, only
one allocation request is allowed to be submitted at once.
Memory allocation requests are only allowed when there are no
secondary processes currently initializing. To enforce that,
a shared rwlock is used, that is set to read lock on init (so that
several secondaries could initialize concurrently), and write lock
on making allocation requests (so that either secondary init will
have to wait, or allocation request will have to wait until all
processes have initialized).
Any other function that wishes to iterate over memory or prevent
allocations should be using memory hotplug lock.

This set of changes enables rte_malloc to allocate and free memory
as needed. Currently, it is disabled because legacy mem mode is
enabled unconditionally.
The way it works is, first malloc checks if there is enough memory
already allocated to satisfy user's request. If there isn't, we try
and allocate more memory. The reverse happens with free - we free
an element, check its size (including free element merging due to
adjacency) and see if it's bigger than hugepage size and that its
start and end span a hugepage or more. Then we remove the area from
malloc heap (adjusting element lengths where appropriate), and
deallocate the page.
For legacy mode, runtime alloc/free of pages is disabled.
It is worth noting that memseg lists are being sorted by page size,
and that we try our best to satisfy user's request. That is, if
the user requests an element from a 2MB page memory, we will check
if we can satisfy that request from existing memory, if not we try
and allocate more 2MB pages. If that fails and user also specified
a "size is hint" flag, we then check other page sizes and try to
allocate from there. If that fails too, then, depending on flags,
we may try allocating from other sockets. In other words, we try
our best to give the user what they asked for, but going to other
sockets is last resort - first we try to allocate more memory on
the same socket.

In preparation for implementing multiprocess support, we are adding
a version number to memseg lists. We will not need any locks, because
memory hotplug will have a global lock (so any time memory map and
thus version number might change, we will already be holding a lock).
There are two ways of implementing multiprocess support for memory
hotplug: either all information about mapped memory is shared
between processes, and secondary processes simply attempt to
map/unmap memory based on requests from the primary, or secondary
processes store their own maps and only check if they are in sync
with the primary process' maps.
This implementation will opt for the latter option: primary process
shared mappings will be authoritative, and each secondary process
will use its own interal view of mapped memory, and will attempt
to synchronize on these mappings using versioning.
Under this model, only primary process will decide which pages get
mapped, and secondary processes will only copy primary's page
maps and get notified of the changes via IPC mechanism (coming
in later commits).

In addition, this would be useful for e.g. PMD's who may allocate

the page boundary, in which case we will be able to accommodate
that request. This function will also support non-hugepage memory.

Currently, DPDK stores all pages as separate files in hugetlbfs.
This option will allow storing all pages in one file (one file
per memseg list).
We do this by using fallocate() calls on FreeBSD, however this is
only supported on fairly recent (4.3+) kernels, so ftruncate()
fallback is provided to grow (but not shrink) hugepage files.
Naming scheme is deterministic, so both primary and secondary
processes will be able to easily map needed files and offsets.
For multi-file segments, we can close fd's right away. For
single-file segments, we can reuse the same fd and reduce the
amount of fd's needed to map/use hugepages. However, we need to
store the fd's somewhere, so we add a tailq.

Before, we were aggregating multiple pages into one memseg, so the
number of memsegs was small. Now, each page gets its own memseg,
so the list of memsegs is huge. To accommodate the new memseg list
size and to keep the under-the-hood workings sane, the memseg list
is now not just a single list, but multiple lists. To be precise,
each hugepage size available on the system gets one or more memseg
lists, per socket.
In order to support dynamic memory allocation, we reserve all
memory in advance (unless we're in 32-bit legacy mode, in which
case we do not preallocate memory). As in, we do an anonymous
mmap() of the entire maximum size of memory per hugepage size, per
socket (which is limited to either RTE_MAX_MEMSEG_PER_TYPE pages or
RTE_MAX_MEM_MB_PER_TYPE megabytes worth of memory, whichever is the
smaller one), split over multiple lists (which are limited to
either RTE_MAX_MEMSEG_PER_LIST memsegs or RTE_MAX_MEM_MB_PER_LIST
megabytes per list, whichever is the smaller one). There is also
a global limit of CONFIG_RTE_MAX_MEM_MB megabytes, which is mainly
used for 32-bit targets to limit amounts of preallocated memory,
but can be used to place an upper limit on total amount of VA
memory that can be allocated by DPDK application.
So, for each hugepage size, we get (by default) up to 128G worth
of memory, per socket, split into chunks of up to 32G in size.
The address space is claimed at the start, in eal_common_memory.c.
The actual page allocation code is in eal_memalloc.c (Linux-only),
and largely consists of copied EAL memory init code.
Pages in the list are also indexed by address. That is, in order
to figure out where the page belongs, one can simply look at base
address for a memseg list. Similarly, figuring out IOVA address
of a memzone is a matter of finding the right memseg list, getting
offset and dividing by page size to get the appropriate memseg.
This commit also removes rte_eal_dump_physmem_layout() call,
according to deprecation notice [1], and removes that deprecation
notice as well.
On 32-bit targets due to limited VA space, DPDK will no longer
spread memory to different sockets like before. Instead, it will
(by default) allocate all of the memory on socket where master
lcore is. To override this behavior, --socket-mem must be used.
The rest of the changes are really ripple effects from the memseg
change - heap changes, compile fixes, and rewrites to support
fbarray-backed memseg lists. Due to earlier switch to _walk()
functions, most of the changes are simple fixes, however some
of the _walk() calls were switched to memseg list walk, where
it made sense to do so.
Additionally, we are also switching locks from flock() to fcntl().
Down the line, we will be introducing single-file segments option,
and we cannot use flock() locks to lock parts of the file. Therefore,
we will use fcntl() locks for legacy mem as well, in case someone is
unfortunate enough to accidentally start legacy mem primary process
alongside an already working non-legacy mem-based primary process.

rte_fbarray is a simple indexed array stored in shared memory
via mapping files into memory. Rationale for its existence is the
following: since we are going to map memory page-by-page, there
could be quite a lot of memory segments to keep track of (for
smaller page sizes, page count can easily reach thousands). We
can't really make page lists truly dynamic and infinitely expandable,
because that involves reallocating memory (which is a big no-no in
multiprocess). What we can do instead is have a maximum capacity as
something really, really large, and decide at allocation time how
big the array is going to be. We map the entire file into memory,
which makes it possible to use fbarray as shared memory, provided
the structure itself is allocated in shared memory. Per-fbarray
locking is also used to avoid index data races (but not contents
data races - that is up to user application to synchronize).
In addition, in understanding that we will frequently need to scan
this array for free space and iterating over array linearly can
become slow, rte_fbarray provides facilities to index array's
usage. The following use cases are covered:
- find next free/used slot (useful either for adding new elements
to fbarray, or walking the list)
- find starting index for next N free/used slots (useful for when
we want to allocate chunk of VA-contiguous memory composed of
several pages)
- find how many contiguous free/used slots there are, starting
from specified index (useful for when we want to figure out
how many pages we have until next hole in allocated memory, to
speed up some bulk operations where we would otherwise have to
walk the array and add pages one by one)
This is accomplished by storing a usage mask in-memory, right
after the data section of the array, and using some bit-level
magic to figure out the info we need.

We already use VA addresses for IOVA purposes everywhere if we're in

1) rte_malloc_virt2phy()/rte_malloc_virt2iova() always return VA addresses
2) Because of 1), memzone's IOVA is set to VA address on reserve
3) Because of 2), mempool's IOVA addresses are set to VA addresses
The only place where actual physical addresses are stored is in memsegs at
init time, but we're not using them anywhere, and there is no external API
to get those addresses (aside from manually iterating through memsegs), nor
should anyone care about them in RTE_IOVA_VA mode.
So, fix EAL initialization to allocate VA-contiguous segments at the start

Since we have support for the strlcpy function in DPDK, replace all
instances where a string is copied using snprintf.
Signed-off-by: Bruce Richardson <bruce.richardson@intel.com>
Reviewed-by: Stephen Hemminger <stephen@networkplumber.org>
The strncpy function is error prone for doing "safe" string copies, so
we generally try to use "snprintf" instead in the code. The function
"strlcpy" is a better alternative, since it better conveys the
intention of the programmer, and doesn't suffer from the non-null
terminating behaviour of it's n'ed brethern.
The downside of this function is that it is not available by default
on linux, though standard in the BSD's. It is available on most
distros by installing "libbsd" package.
This patch therefore provides the following in rte_string_fns.h to ensure
that strlcpy is available there:
* for BSD, include string.h as normal
* if RTE_USE_LIBBSD is set, include <bsd/string.h>
* if not set, fallback to snprintf for strlcpy
Using make build system, the RTE_USE_LIBBSD is a hard-coded value to "n",
but when using meson, it's automatically set based on what is available
on the platform.

Dynamic log types are registered on RTE_INIT() step.
This allows one to set log levels by EAL options on
application launch. However, this does not allow to
manage log types if they are created during runtime.
EAL does not store log levels and types passed from
the command line. Thus, they cannot be picked later.
This is an obvious flaw since it would be better to
be able to pick levels for dynamic types registered
for runtime-determined facilities such as NIC ports.
This patch provides a mechanism to store log levels

The EAL and compat libraries were special-cases in the library build
process, the former because of it's complexity, and the latter because
it only consists of a single header file.
By reworking the EAL meson.build files, we can eliminate the need for it to
be a special case, by having it build up and return the list of sources,
headers, and objects and return those to the higher level build file. This
should also simplify the building of EAL, as we can eliminate a number of
meson.build files that would no longer be needed, and have fewer, but
larger meson.build files (9 now vs 14 previous) - thereby making the logic
easier to follow and items easier to find.
Once done, we can pull eal into the main library loop, with some
modifications to support it. Compat can also be pulled it once we add in a
check to handle the case of an empty sources list.

We need the synchronous way for multi-process communication,
i.e., blockingly waiting for reply message when we send a request
to the peer process.
We add two APIs rte_eal_mp_request() and rte_eal_mp_reply() for
such use case. By invoking rte_eal_mp_request(), a request message
is sent out, and then it waits there for a reply message. The caller
can specify the timeout. And the response messages will be collected
and returned so that the caller can decide how to translate them.
The API rte_eal_mp_reply() is always called by an mp action handler.
Here we add another parameter for rte_eal_mp_t so that the action
handler knows which peer address to reply.

Previouly, there are three channels for multi-process
(i.e., primary/secondary) communication.
1. Config-file based channel, in which, the primary process writes
info into a pre-defined config file, and the secondary process
reads the info out.
2. vfio submodule has its own channel based on unix socket for the
secondary process to get container fd and group fd from the
primary process.
3. pdump submodule also has its own channel based on unix socket for
packet dump.
It'd be good to have a generic communication channel for multi-process
communication to accommodate the requirements including:
a. Secondary wants to send info to primary, for example, secondary
would like to send request (about some specific vdev to primary).
b. Sending info at any time, instead of just initialization time.
c. Share FDs with the other side, for vdev like vhost, related FDs
(memory region, kick) should be shared.
d. A send message request needs the other side to response immediately.
This patch proposes to create a communication channel, based on datagram
unix socket, for above requirements. Each process will block on a unix
socket waiting for messages from the peers.
Three new APIs are added:
1. rte_eal_mp_action_register() is used to register an action,
indexed by a string, when a component at receiver side would like
to response the messages from the peer processe.
2. rte_eal_mp_action_unregister() is used to unregister the action
if the calling component does not want to response the messages.
3. rte_eal_mp_sendmsg() is used to send a message, and returns
immediately. If there are n secondary processes, the primary
process will send n messages.

particularly if they should call rte_eal_cleanup() to release any
resources or not. This patch adds the cleanup to rte_exit(),
but does not clean up on rte_panic(). The reason to not clean
up on panicing is that the developer may wish to inspect the
exact internal state of EAL and hugepages.

This commit moves the rte_service_finalize() function
to be in the component header, and marks it as @internal.
The function is only called internally by rte_eal_finalize().

At present the userdefined mempool ops name overwrites
the default mempool ops name variable in internal_config.
This patch change the logic to maintain the value of
user defined only in the internal config.
The pktmbuf_create_pool is updated to reflect the same ie.
use user defined. If not present than use the default.

On x86 it is possible to use lock-prefixed instructions to get
the similar effect as mfence.
As pointed by Java guys, on most modern HW that gives a better
performance than using mfence:

That patch adopts that technique for rte_smp_mb() implementation.
On BDW 2.2 mb_autotest on single lcore reports 2X cycle reduction,
i.e. from ~110 to ~55 cycles per operation.

for the code as follows:
if (condition)
rte_smp_rmb();
else
rte_smp_wmb();
Without this patch, compiler will report this error:
