Enabling LRO offload per queue makes sense because the user will
probably want to allocate different mempool for LRO queues - the LRO
mempool mbuf size may be bigger than non LRO mempool.
Change the LRO offload to be per queue instead of per port.
If one of the queues is with LRO enabled, all the queues will be
configured via DevX.
If RSS flows direct TCP packets to queues with different LRO enabling,
these flows will not be offloaded with LRO.

The RQ errors recovery mechanism in the PMD invokes a Verbs functions to
modify the RQ states in order to reset the RQ and to reactivate it.
These Verbs functions are not allowed to be invoked from a secondary
process, hence the PMD skips the recovery when the error is captured by
secondary processes queues.
Using the DPDK IPC mechanism the secondary process can request Verbs
queues state modifications to be done synchronically by the primary
process.
Add support for secondary process Rx errors recovery.

UAR (User Access Region) register does not need to be remapped for
primary process but it should be remapped only for secondary process.
UAR register table is in the process private structure in
rte_eth_devices[],
(struct mlx5_proc_priv *)rte_eth_devices[port_id].process_private
The actual UAR table follows the data structure and the table is used
for both Tx and Rx.
For Tx, BlueFlame in UAR is used to ring the doorbell.
MLX5_TX_BFREG(txq) is defined to get a register for the txq. Processes
access its own private data to acquire the register from the UAR table.
For Rx, the doorbell in UAR is required in arming CQ event. However, it

Multi-Packet Rx Queue (MPRQ a.k.a Striding RQ) can further save PCIe
bandwidth by posting a single large buffer for multiple packets. Instead of
posting a buffer per a packet, one large buffer is posted in order to
receive multiple packets on the buffer. A MPRQ buffer consists of multiple
fixed-size strides and each stride receives one packet.
Rx packet is mem-copied to a user-provided mbuf if the size of Rx packet is
comparatively small, or PMD attaches the Rx packet to the mbuf by external
buffer attachment - rte_pktmbuf_attach_extbuf(). A mempool for external
buffers will be allocated and managed by PMD.

This is the new design of Memory Region (MR) for mlx PMD, in order to:
- Accommodate the new memory hotplug model.
- Support non-contiguous Mempool.
There are multiple layers for MR search.
L0 is to look up the last-hit entry which is pointed by mr_ctrl->mru (Most
Recently Used). If L0 misses, L1 is to look up the address in a fixed-sized
array by linear search. L0/L1 is in an inline function -
mlx5_mr_lookup_cache().
If L1 misses, the bottom-half function is called to look up the address
from the bigger local cache of the queue. This is L2 - mlx5_mr_addr2mr_bh()
and it is not an inline function. Data structure for L2 is the Binary Tree.
If L2 misses, the search falls into the slowest path which takes locks in
order to access global device cache (priv->mr.cache) which is also a B-tree
and caches the original MR list (priv->mr.mr_list) of the device. Unless
the global cache is overflowed, it is all-inclusive of the MR list. This is
L3 - mlx5_mr_lookup_dev(). The size of the L3 cache table is limited and
can't be expanded on the fly due to deadlock. Refer to the comments in the
code for the details - mr_lookup_dev(). If L3 is overflowed, the list will
have to be searched directly bypassing the cache although it is slower.
If L3 misses, a new MR for the address should be created -
mlx5_mr_create(). When it creates a new MR, it tries to register adjacent
memsegs as much as possible which are virtually contiguous around the
address. This must take two locks - memory_hotplug_lock and
priv->mr.rwlock. Due to memory_hotplug_lock, there can't be any
allocation/free of memory inside.
In the free callback of the memory hotplug event, freed space is searched
from the MR list and corresponding bits are cleared from the bitmap of MRs.
This can fragment a MR and the MR will have multiple search entries in the
caches. Once there's a change by the event, the global cache must be
rebuilt and all the per-queue caches will be flushed as well. If memory is
frequently freed in run-time, that may cause jitter on dataplane processing
in the worst case by incurring MR cache flush and rebuild. But, it would be
the least probable scenario.
To guarantee the most optimal performance, it is highly recommended to use
an EAL option - '--socket-mem'. Then, the reserved memory will be pinned
and won't be freed dynamically. And it is also recommended to configure
per-lcore cache of Mempool. Even though there're many MRs for a device or
MRs are highly fragmented, the cache of Mempool will be much helpful to
reduce misses on per-queue caches anyway.
'--legacy-mem' is also supported.

This behavior is mixed between what should be handled by the application
and what is under PMD responsibility.
According to DPDK API:
- link_update() should only query the link status [1]
- link_set_{up,down}() should only set the link to the according status [1]
- dev_{start,stop}() should enable/disable traffic reception/emission [2]
On this PMD, the link status is retrieved from the net device associated
owned by the Linux Kernel, it does not means that even when this interface
is down, the PMD cannot send/receive traffic from the NIC those two
information are unrelated, until the physical port is active and has a
link, the PMD can receive/send traffic on the wire.
According to DPDK API, calling the rte_eth_dev_start() even when the Linux
interface link is down is then possible and allowed, as the traffic will
flow between the DPDK application and the Physical port.
This also means that a synchronization between the Linux interface and the
DPDK application remains under the DPDK application responsibility.
To handle such synchronization the application should behave as the
following scheme, to start:
rte_eth_get_link(port_id, &link);
if (link.link_status == ETH_DOWN)
rte_eth_dev_set_link_up(port_id);
rte_eth_dev_start(port_id);
Taking in account the possible returned values for each function.
and to stop:
rte_eth_dev_stop(port_id);
rte_eth_dev_set_link_down(port_id);
The application should also set the LSC interrupt callbacks to catch and
behave accordingly when the administrator set the Linux device down/up.
The same callbacks are called when the link on the medium falls/raise.

As the link may take time to move between down and up state it is
possible the rte_eth_dev_start call will return with wrong burst
function (either null or the empty burst function).
Fixing it by forcing the link to be up before returning from device
start. In case the link is still not up after 5 seconds fail the function.
In addition initialize the burst function on device probe to prevent
crashes before the link is up.
