567997b977 examples/vm_power_manager: add per-core turbo
Add extra commands to command line to allow enable/disable of
per-core turbo.

When a core has turbo enabled, calling for max frequency will allow it to
go to a turbo frequency (P0n).

When a core has turbo disabled, calling for max frequency will allow it to
go to the maximum non-turbo frequency (P1), but not beyond.

50810f095a config: remove useless explicit includes of generated header
The file rte_config.h is automatically generated and included.
No need to #include it.

The example performance-thread needs a makefile fix to avoid
overwriting the default cflags.

fdf20fa7be add prefix to cache line macros
CACHE_LINE_SIZE is a macro defined in machine/param.h in FreeBSD and
conflicts with DPDK macro version.
Adding RTE_ prefix to avoid conflicts.
CACHE_LINE_MASK and CACHE_LINE_ROUNDUP are also prefixed.

e8ae9b6625 examples/vm_power: channel manager and monitor in host
The manager is responsible for adding communications channels to the Monitor
thread, tracking and reporting VM state and employs the libvirt API for
synchronization with the KVM Hypervisor. The manager interacts with the
Hypervisor to discover the mapping of virtual CPUS(vCPUs) to the host
physical CPUS(pCPUs) and to inspect the VM running state.

The manager provides the following functionality to the CLI:
1) Connect to a libvirtd instance, default: qemu:///system
2) Add a VM to an internal list, each VM is identified by a "name" which must
   correspond a valid libvirt Domain Name.
3) Add communication channels associated with a VM to the epoll based Monitor
   thread.
   The channels must exist and be in the form of:
   /tmp/powermonitor/<vm_name>.<channel_number>. Each channel is a
   Virtio-Serial endpoint configured as an AF_UNIX file socket and opened in
   non-blocking mode.
   Each VM can have a maximum of 64 channels associated with it.
4) Disable or re-enable VM communication channels, channels once added to the
   Monitor thread remain in that threads control, however acting on channel
   requests can be disabled and renabled via CLI.

The monitor is an epoll based infinite loop running in a separate thread that
waits on channel events from VMs and calls the corresponding functions. Channel
definitions from the manager are registered via the epoll event opaque pointer
when calling epoll_ctl(EPOLL_CTL_ADD), this allows for obtaining the channels
file descriptor for reading EPOLLIN events and mapping the vCPU to pCPU(s)
associated with a request from a particular VM.
