03128be4cd examples/ipsec-secgw: allow disabling some Rx/Tx offloads
Right now ipsec-secgw always enables TX offloads
(DEV_TX_OFFLOAD_MULTI_SEGS, DEV_TX_OFFLOAD_SECURITY),
even when they are not requested by the config.
That causes many PMD to choose full-featured TX function,
which in many cases is much slower then one without offloads.
That patch adds ability for the user to disable unneeded HW offloads.
If DEV_TX_OFFLOAD_IPV4_CKSUM is disabled by user, then
SW version of ip cksum calculation is used.
That allows to use vector TX function, when inline-ipsec is not
requested.

3ee567cfec doc: document all EAL parameters in one place
Currently, the most complete (but still incomplete) user guide for
EAL command-line parameters resides in user guide for testpmd.
This is wrong on multiple levels, and should not be the case.

To fix it, we have to create a document that lists all supported
EAL command-line arguments. However, because different platforms
support different subsets of available EAL parameters, instead of
creating a single file, we will create a common file in
doc/guides/common containing documentation for EAL parameters
that are supported on all of our supported platforms (Linux and
FreeBSD at the time of this writing).

We will then include this document in the Getting Started guides
for all supported platforms, so that any changes made to
documentation for commonly supported EAL parameters will be
reflected in Getting Started guides for all platforms.

This patch also removes EAL parameters documentation from the
testpmd user guide, and instead adds references to the newly
created documents in both testpmd user guides and in sample
applications guide.

91dc9c13ba examples/ipv4_multicast: fix leak of cloned packets
The ipv4_multicast sample application was dropping packets
when using mbuf clone. When creating an L2 header and copying
metadata from the source packet, the ol_flags were also copied
along with all the other metadata. Because the cloned packet
had IND_ATTACHED_MBUF flag set in its ol_flags,
this caused the packets to never be freed when using rte_pktmbuf_free.
Since copying ol_flags from the cloned packet is
not necessary in the first place, just don't do it.

a137d012a0 examples/l3fwd-power: support traffic pattern aware control
Add the support for new traffic pattern aware power control
power management API.

Example:
./l3fwd-power -l xxx   -n 4   -w 0000:xx:00.0 -w 0000:xx:00.1 -- -p 0x3
-P --config="(0,0,xx),(1,0,xx)" --empty-poll="0,0,0" -l 14 -m 9 -h 1

Please Reference l3fwd-power document for full parameter usage

The option "l", "m", "h" are used to set the power index for
LOW, MED, HIGH power state. Only is useful after enable empty-poll

--empty-poll="training_flag, med_threshold, high_threshold"

The option training_flag is used to enable/disable training mode.

The option med_threshold is used to indicate the empty poll threshold
of modest state which is customized by user.

The option high_threshold is used to indicate the empty poll threshold
of busy state which is customized by user.

Above three option default value is all 0.

Once enable empty-poll. System will apply the default parameter if no
other command line options are provided.

If training mode is enabled, the user should ensure that no traffic
is allowed to pass through the system. When training phase complete,
the application transfer to normal operation

System will start running with the modest power mode.
If the traffic goes above 70%, then system will move to High power state.
If the traffic drops below 30%, the system will fallback to the modest
power state.

Example code use master thread to monitoring worker thread busyness.
The default timer resolution is 10ms.

Applications that require keeping CRC should check PMD capability first

DEV_RX_OFFLOAD_KEEP_CRC in Rx offload flag in rte_eth_dev_configure()

ab3ce1e0c1 ethdev: remove old offload API
In DPDK 17.11, the ethdev offloads API has changed:
	commit cba7f53b717d ("ethdev: introduce Tx queue offloads API")
	commit ce17eddefc20 ("ethdev: introduce Rx queue offloads API")
The new API is documented in the programmer's guide:
	http://doc.dpdk.org/guides/prog_guide/poll_mode_drv.html#hardware-offload

For reminder, the main concepts in the new API were:
	- All offloads are disabled by default
	- Distinction between per port and per queue offloads.

The transition bits are now removed:
	- Translation of the old API in ethdev
	- rte_eth_conf.rxmode.ignore_offload_bitfield
	- ETH_TXQ_FLAGS_IGNORE

The old API bits are now removed:
	- Rx per-port rte_eth_conf.rxmode.[bit-fields]
	- Tx per-queue rte_eth_txconf.txq_flags
	- ETH_TXQ_FLAGS_NO*

d9a42a69fe ethdev: deprecate port count function
Some DPDK applications wrongly assume these requirements:
    - no hotplug, i.e. ports are never detached
    - all allocated ports are available to the application

Such application iterates over ports by its own mean.
The most common pattern is to request the port count and
assume ports with index in the range [0..count[ can be used.

In order to fix this common mistake in all external applications,
the function rte_eth_dev_count is deprecated, while introducing
the new functions rte_eth_dev_count_avail and rte_eth_dev_count_total.

There are three consequences when using such wrong design:

    - old ports being detached (RTE_ETH_DEV_UNUSED) can be valid

Such mistake will be less common with growing hotplug awareness.

Such application iterates over ports by its own mean.
The most common pattern is to request the port count and
assume ports with index in the range [0..count[ can be used.

There are three consequences when using such wrong design:
    - new ports having an index higher than the port count won't be seen
    - old ports being detached (RTE_ETH_DEV_UNUSED) can be seen as ghosts
    - failsafe sub-devices (RTE_ETH_DEV_DEFERRED) will be seen by the application

Such mistake will be less common with growing hotplug awareness.
All applications and examples inside this repository - except testpmd -
must be fixed to use the iterator RTE_ETH_FOREACH_DEV.
