4b058fdd27 net/virtio: add missing read barrier for packed dequeue
Read barrier is required between reading the flags (desc_is_used)
and the content of descriptor to ensure the ordering.
Otherwise, speculative read of desc.id could be reordered with
reading of the desc.flags.

23d25f1a40 net/virtio: add barriers for extra descriptors on Rx split
There should be read barrier between checking VIRTQUEUE_NUSED (reading
the used->idx) and reading these descriptors. It's done for the first
checks at the beginning of these functions but missed while checking
for extra required descriptors.

3eb50f0c79 net/virtio: fix read barriers on packed Tx cleanup
Read barrier must be implied between reading descriptor flags
and descriptor id. Otherwise, in case of reordering, we could
read wrong descriptor id.

For the reference, similar barrier for split rings is the read
barrier between VIRTQUEUE_NUSED (reading the used->idx) and
the call to the virtio_xmit_cleanup().

Additionally removed double update of 'used_idx'. It's enough
to set it in the end of the loop.

45c224e73a net/virtio-user: fix control VQ
This patch fixed below issues in the packed ring based control
vq support in virtio user:

1. The idx_hdr should be used_idx instead of the id in the desc;
2. We just need to write out a single used descriptor for each
   descriptor list;
3. The avail/used bits should be initialized to 0;

Meanwhile, make the function name consistent with other parts.

and wait in an idle loop until it becomes used. We can't use

the used_wrap_counter that matches the state of the head descriptor.

d21d05c7a9 net/virtio: add barrier before reading the flags
Reading the used->flags could be reordered with avail->idx update.
vhost in kernel disables notifications for the time of packets
receiving, like this:

    1. disable notify
    2. process packets
    3. enable notify
    4. has more packets ? goto 1

In case of reordering, virtio driver could read the flags on
step 2 while notifications disabled and update avail->idx after
the step 4, i.e. vhost will exit the loop on step 4 with
notifications enabled, but virtio will not notify.

With the enabling for hotplug on multi-process,
rte_eth_dev_pci_generic_remove can be used to detach the device from
a secondary process also. But we need to take care of the uninit callback
parameter to make sure it handles the secondary case correctly.

f32c7c9de9 malloc: enable event callbacks for external memory
When adding or removing external memory from the memory map, there
may be actions that need to be taken on account of this memory (e.g.
DMA mapping). Add support for triggering callbacks when adding,
removing, attaching or detaching external memory.

Some memory event callback handlers will need additional logic to
handle external memory regions. For example, virtio callback has to
completely ignore externally allocated memory, because there is no
way to find file descriptors backing the memory address in a
generic fashion. All other callbacks have also been adjusted to
handle RTE_BAD_IOVA as IOVA address, as this is one of the expected
use cases for external memory support.

5282bb1c36 mem: allow memseg lists to be marked as external
When we allocate and use DPDK memory, we need to be able to
differentiate between DPDK hugepage segments and segments that
were made part of DPDK but are externally allocated. Add such
a property to memseg lists.

This breaks the ABI, so document the change in release notes.
This also breaks a few internal assumptions about memory
contiguousness, so adjust malloc code in a few places.

All current calls for memseg walk functions were adjusted to
ignore external segments where it made sense.

Mempools is a special case, because we may be asked to allocate
a mempool on a specific socket, and we need to ignore all page
sizes on other heaps or other sockets. Previously, this
assumption of knowing all page sizes was not a problem, but it
will be now, so we have to match socket ID with page size when
calculating minimum page size for a mempool.
