f05e26051c eal: add IPC asynchronous request
This API is similar to the blocking API that is already present,
but reply will be received in a separate callback by the caller
(callback specified at the time of request, rather than registering
for it in advance).

Under the hood, we create a separate thread to deal with replies to
asynchronous requests, that will just wait to be notified by the
main thread, or woken up on a timer.

028e4b1dbc mbuf: fix logic of user mempool ops API
The existing rte_eal_mbuf_default mempool ops can return the compile time
default ops name if the user has not provided command line inputs for
mempool ops name. It will break the logic of best mempool ops as it will

783b6e5497 eal: add synchronous multi-process communication
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.

 * A secondary process is only allowed to talk to the primary process.
 * If there are multiple secondary processes for the primary process,
   it will send request to peer1, collect response from peer1; then
   send request to peer2, collect response from peer2, and so on.
 * When thread-n is sending request, thread-m of that process can send
   request at the same time.
 * For pair <action_name, peer>, we guarantee that only one such request
   is on the fly.

bacaa27540 eal: add channel for multi-process communication
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.

aec9c13c52 eal: add function to release internal resources
This commit adds a new function rte_eal_cleanup().
The function serves as a hook to allow DPDK to release
internal resources (e.g.: hugepage allocations).

This function allows DPDK to become more like an ordinary
library, where the library context itself can be initialized
and cleaned up by the application.

The rte_exit() and rte_panic() functions must be considered,
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.

0d440d081c lib: fix missing includes in exported headers
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:

 [...]/rte_memory.h:88:43: error: ‘RTE_CACHE_LINE_SIZE’ was not declared in
     this scope
  #define __rte_cache_aligned __rte_aligned(RTE_CACHE_LINE_SIZE)
                                            ^

It also results in less visible issues, for instance rte_hash_crc.h relying
on RTE_ARCH_X86_64's presence to provide dedicated inline functions.

This patch partially reverts the commit below and adds missing include
lines to the remaining files.

8d73e58f0b bus: fix driver registration
The bus name was stored with embedded double quotes.
Indeed the bus name is given with a string in a macro,
which is not used elsewhere.
These macros are useless because the buses are drivers,
so they must not have any API for the application writer.
The registration can be done with a hardcoded value without quotes.

There is another (small) benefit of not using macros for driver names:
it is to have a meaningful constructor function name.
For instance, it was businitfn_PCI_BUS_NAME instead of businitfn_pci.

The bus registration macro is also changed to use
the new RTE_INIT_PRIO macro, similar to RTE_INIT used for other drivers.
The priority is the highest (101) in order to be sure that the bus driver
is registered before its device drivers.

dd3e00138d eal: check if primary process is alive
This patch adds a new function to the EAL API:
int rte_eal_primary_proc_alive(const char *path);

The function indicates if a primary process is alive right now.
This functionality is implemented by testing for a write-
lock on the config file, and the function tests for a lock.

The use case for this functionality is that a secondary
process can wait until a primary process starts by polling
the function and waiting. When the primary is running, the
secondary continues to poll to detect if the primary process
has quit unexpectedly, the secondary process can detect this.
