This patch adds support for meter configuration profiles.
Benefits: simplified configuration procedure, improved performance.
Q1: What is the configuration profile and why does it make sense?
A1: The configuration profile represents the set of configuration
parameters for a given meter object, such as the rates and sizes for
the token buckets. The configuration profile concept makes sense when
many meter objects share the same configuration, which is the typical
usage model: thousands of traffic flows are each individually metered
according to just a few service levels (i.e. profiles).
Q2: How is the configuration profile improving the performance?
A2: The performance improvement is achieved by reducing the memory
footprint of a meter object, which results in better cache utilization
for the typical case when large arrays of meter objects are used. The
internal data structures stored for each meter object contain:
a) Constant fields: Low level translation of the configuration
parameters that does not change post-configuration. This is
really duplicated for all meters that use the same
configuration. This is the configuration profile data that is
moved away from the meter object. Current size (implementation
dependent): srTCM = 32 bytes, trTCM = 32 bytes.
b) Variable fields: Time stamps and running counters that change
during the on-going traffic metering process. Current size
(implementation dependent): srTCM = 24 bytes, trTCM = 32 bytes.
Therefore, by moving the constant fields to a separate profile
data structure shared by all the meters with the same
configuration, the size of the meter object is reduced by ~50%.

Since the DPDK build now includes both static and shared libraries, we need
a new way to enable building the examples using either method from the one
installation. To do this, we add in a default "shared" target, and a
separate "static" target which links in the DPDK static libraries. In both
cases, the final application name is symlinked to the last-built static or
shared target, with both binaries able to co-exist in the build directory.

Change the example app Makefiles to query if DPDK is installed and
registered using pkg-config. If so, build directly using pkg-config info,
otherwise fall back to using the original build system with RTE_SDK and
RTE_TARGET
This commit changes the makefiles for the basic examples, i.e. those which
do not have multiple subdirectories underneath the main examples dir.
Examples not covered are:
* ethtool
* multi_process
* performance-thread
* quota_watermark
* netmap_compat
* server_node_efd
* vm_power_manager

Reorder the text in the makefiles, so that the app name and the source
files are listed first. This then will allow them to be shared later in a
combined makefile building with pkg-config and RTE_SDK-based build system.

Flow actions pipeline is an extension of flow-classification pipeline.
Some of the operations of flow classification pipeline such as traffic
metering/marking(for e.g. Single Rate Three Color Marker (srTCM), Two
Rate Three Color Marker trTCM)), policer can be performed separately in
flow action pipeline to avoid excessive computational burden on the CPU
core running the flow-classification pipeline. The Flow action pipeline
implements various function such as traffic metering, policer, stats.
Traffic mettering can configured as per the required context, for
examples- per user, per traffic class or both. These contexts can be
applied by specifying parameters in configuration file as shown below;
[PIPELINE1]
type = FLOW_ACTIONS
core = 1
pktq_in = RXQ0.0 RXQ1.0 RXQ2.0 RXQ3.0
pktq_out = TXQ0.0 TXQ1.0 TXQ2.0 TXQ3.0
n_flows = 65536
n_meters_per_flow = 1
flow_id_offset = 158
ip_hdr_offset = 142
color_offset = 64
The entries of flow and dscp tables of flow actions pipeline can be
modified through command-line interface. The commands to add or delete
entries to the flow table, DSCP(differentiated services code point)
table and for statistics collection, etc have been included. The key
functions such as Traffic Metering/marking and policer functions have
been implemented as flow-table action handler.
