c0bddd3a05 net/tap: add link status notification
As tap is a virtual device, there's no physical way a link can be cut.
However, it has an associated kernel netdevice and possibly a remote
netdevice too. These netdevices link status may change outside of the
DPDK scope, through an external command such as:

  ip link set dev tapX down

This commit implements link status notification through netlink.

2bc06869cd net/tap: add remote netdevice traffic capture
By default, a tap netdevice is of no use when not fed by a separate
process. The ability to automatically feed it from another netdevice
allows applications to capture any kind of traffic normally destined to
the kernel stack.

This patch implements this ability through a new optional "remote"
parameter.

Packets matching filtering rules created with the flow API are matched
on the remote device and redirected to the tap PMD, where the relevant
action will be performed.

de96fe68ae net/tap: add basic flow API patterns and actions
Supported flow rules are now mapped to TC rules on the tap netdevice.
The netlink message used for creating the TC rule is stored in struct
rte_flow. That way, by simply changing a metadata in it, we can require
for the rule deletion without further parsing.

Supported items:
- eth: src and dst (with variable masks), and eth_type (0xffff mask).
- vlan: vid, pcp, tpid, but not eid.
- ipv4/6: src and dst (with variable masks), and ip_proto (0xffff mask).
- udp/tcp: src and dst port (0xffff) mask.

Supported actions:
- DROP
- QUEUE
- PASSTHRU

It is generally not possible to provide a "last" item. However, if the
"last" item, once masked, is identical to the masked spec, then it is
supported.

Only IPv4/6 and MAC addresses can use a variable mask. All other
items need a full mask (exact match).

Support for VLAN requires kernel headers >= 4.9, checked using
auto-config.sh.

6ce84bd889 net/mlx5: add enhanced multi-packet send for ConnectX-5
ConnectX-5 supports enhanced version of multi-packet send (MPS). An MPS Tx
descriptor can carry multiple packets either by including pointers of
packets or by inlining packets. Inlining packet data can be helpful to
better utilize PCIe bandwidth. In addition, Enhanced MPS supports hybrid
mode - mixing inlined packets and pointers in a descriptor. This feature is
enabled by default if supported by HW.

8788fec1f2 net/mlx5: implement descriptor status API
Since there is no "descriptor done" flag like on Intel drivers, the
approach is different on mlx5 driver.
- for Tx, we call txq_complete() to free descriptors processed by
  the hw, then we check if the descriptor is between tail and head
- for Rx, we need to browse the cqes, managing compressed ones,
  to get the number of used descriptors.

b1b700ce7d ethdev: add descriptor status API
Introduce a new API to get the status of a descriptor.

For Rx, it is almost similar to rx_descriptor_done API, except it
differentiates "used" descriptors (which are hold by the driver and not
returned to the hardware).

For Tx, it is a new API.

The descriptor_done() API, and probably the rx_queue_count() API could
be replaced by this new API as soon as it is implemented on all PMDs.

feb9f680cd mk: optimize directory dependencies
Before this patch, the management of dependencies between directories
had several issues:

- the generation of .depdirs, done at configuration is slow: it can take
  more than one minute on some slow targets (usually ~10s on a standard
  PC without -j).

- for instance, it is possible to express a dependency like:
  - app/foo depends on lib/librte_foo
  - and lib/librte_foo depends on app/bar
  But this won't work because the directories are traversed with a
  depth-first algorithm, so we have to choose between doing 'app' before
  or after 'lib'.

- the script depdirs-rule.sh is too complex.

- we cannot use "make -d" for debug, because the output of make is used for
  the generation of .depdirs.

This patch moves the DEPDIRS-* variables in the upper Makefile, making
the dependencies much easier to calculate. A DEPDIRS variable is still
used to process library dependencies in LDLIBS.

After this commit, "make config" is almost immediate.

630f6ec11e mk: provide option to set major ABI version
Downstreams might want to provide different DPDK releases at the same
time to support multiple consumers of DPDK linked against older and newer
sonames.

Also due to the interdependencies that DPDK libraries can have applications
might end up with an executable space in which multiple versions of a
library are mapped by ld.so.

Think of LibA that got an ABI bump and LibB that did not get an ABI bump
but is depending on LibA.

    Application
    \-> LibA.old
    \-> LibB.new -> LibA.new

That is a conflict which can be avoided by setting CONFIG_RTE_MAJOR_ABI.
If set CONFIG_RTE_MAJOR_ABI overwrites any LIBABIVER value.
An example might be ``CONFIG_RTE_MAJOR_ABI=16.11`` which will make all
libraries librte<?>.so.16.11 instead of librte<?>.so.<LIBABIVER>.

We need to cut arbitrary long stings after the .so now and this would work
for any ABI version in LIBABIVER:
  $(Q)ln -s -f $< $(patsubst %.$(LIBABIVER),%,$@)
But using the following instead additionally allows to simplify the Make
File for the CONFIG_RTE_NEXT_ABI case.
  $(Q)ln -s -f $< $(shell echo $@ | sed 's/\.so.*/.so/')

The position: relative attribute is used for the highlight position
but it makes the border to disappear.

The overflow: hidden attribute is used to mask the generated content
outside of the table.

The class .wy-nav-content has a background which masks the highlighting.
Setting an opacity lower than 1, creates a new stack context and let
the column highlight to be shown.

The background of odd rows was grey and opaque. It is redefined with

a5c44ed455 doc: announce API changes for vhost
I made a vhost ABI/API refactoring at v16.04, meant to avoid such issue
forever. Well, apparently, I lied.

People are looking for more vhost-user options now days, other than
vhost-user net only. For example, SPDK (Storage Performance Development
Kit) are looking for chance of vhost-user SCSI and vhost-user block.

Apparently, they also need a vhost-user backend, while DPDK already
has a (mature enough) backend, they don't want to implement it again
from scratch. They want to leverage the one DPDK provides.

However, the last refactoring hasn't done that right, at least it's
not friendly for extending vhost-user to add more devices support.
For example, different virtio devices has its own feature set, while
APIs like rte_vhost_feature_disable(feature_mask) have no option to
tell the device type. Thus, a more proper API should look like:

    rte_vhost_feature_disable(device_type, feature_mask);

Besides that, few public files and structures should be renamed, to
not let it bind to virtio-net. Specifically, they are:

- virtio_net_device_ops --> vhost_device_ops
- rte_virtio_net.h      --> rte_vhost.h

Added AES_CBC cipher-only performance tests on QAT PMD.
No driver changes, but as now tested, QAT documentation
is updated to remove constraint.

39aad0e88c examples/flow_distributor: new example to demonstrate EFD
This new sample app, based on the client/server sample app,
shows the user an scenario using the EFD library.
It consists of:

- A front-end server which has an EFD table that stores the
  node id for each flow key, which will distribute the incoming
  packets to the different nodes

- A back-end node, which has a hash table where node checks,
  after reading packets coming from the server, whether the packet
  is meant to be used in such node, in which case it will be TXed,
  or not, in which case, packet will be dropped.

56b6ef874f efd: new Elastic Flow Distributor library
Elastic Flow Distributor (EFD) is a distributor library that uses
perfect hashing to determine a target/value for a given incoming flow key.
It has the following advantages:

- First, because it uses perfect hashing, it does not store
  the key itself and hence lookup performance is not dependent
  on the key size.

- Second, the target/value can be any arbitrary value hence
  the system designer and/or operator can better optimize service rates
  and inter-cluster network traffic locating.

- Third, since the storage requirement is much smaller than a hash-based
  flow table (i.e. better fit for CPU cache), EFD can scale to
  millions of flow keys.
  Finally, with current optimized library implementation performance
  is fully scalable with number of CPU cores.

69736db1d8 eal: introduce I/O device memory read/write operations
This commit introduces 8-bit, 16-bit, 32bit, 64bit I/O device
memory read/write operations along with the relaxed versions.

The weakly-ordered machine like ARM needs additional I/O barrier for
device memory read/write access over PCI bus.
By introducing the eal abstraction for I/O device memory read/write access,
The drivers can access I/O device memory in architecture agnostic manner.

The relaxed version does not have additional I/O memory barrier, useful in
accessing the device registers of integrated controllers which
implicitly strongly ordered with respect to memory access.

faf08c8b0f examples/performance-thread: add packet type parsing
Last changes in Niantic and Fortville NIC drivers causes that
vector Rx path is chosen by default in l3fwd-thread application.
This path doesn't support propagation of hw packet type recognition
to the packet_type field in mbuf, and packets cannot be classified
properly.

The approach to solve this problem is similar to the commit:
71a7e2424e ("examples/l3fwd: fix using packet type blindly").

To use sw packet analyzer, new command line option "--parse-ptype" is

e0ef2aecde doc: simplify l3fwd example guide
L3 Forwarding sample app user guides have some inconsistencies
between the example command line and the configuration table.
Also, they were showing too complicated configuration, using two
different NUMA nodes for two ports, which will probably lead
to performance drop due to use cross-socket channel.

This patch simplifies the configuration of these examples,
by using a single NUMA node and a single queue per port.

26b683b4f7 net/virtio: setup Rx queue interrupts
This patch mainly allocates structure to store queue/irq mapping,
and configure queue/irq mapping down through PCI ops. It also creates
eventfds for each Rx queue and tell the kernel about the eventfd/intr
binding.

Note: So far, we hard-code 1:1 queue/irq mapping (each rx queue has
one exclusive interrupt), like this:
  vec 0 -> config irq
  vec 1 -> rxq0
  vec 2 -> rxq1
  ...

which means, the "vectors" option of QEMU should be configured with
a value >= N+1 (N is the number of the queue pairs).

This patch add support vhost kernel as the backend for virtio_user.
Three main hook functions are added:
  - vhost_kernel_setup() to open char device, each vq pair needs one
    vhostfd;
  - vhost_kernel_ioctl() to communicate control messages with vhost
    kernel module;
  - vhost_kernel_enable_queue_pair() to open tap device and set it
    as the backend of corresonding vhost fd (that is to say, vq pair).

6d890f8ab5 net/virtio: fix multiple process support
The introduce of virtio 1.0 support brings yet another set of ops, badly,
it's not handled correctly, that it breaks the multiple process support.

The issue is the data/function pointer may vary from different processes,
and the old used to do one time set (for primary process only). That
said, the function pointer the secondary process saw is actually from the
primary process space. Accessing it could likely result to a crash.

Kudos to the last patches, we now be able to maintain those info that may
vary among different process locally, meaning every process could have its
own copy for each of them, with the correct value set. And this is what
this patch does:

- remap the PCI (IO port for legacy device and memory map for modern
  device)

- set vtpci_ops correctly

After that, multiple process would work like a charm. (At least, it
passed my fuzzy test)

b1a4b4cbc0 ethdev: introduce generic flow API
This new API supersedes all the legacy filter types described in
rte_eth_ctrl.h. It is slightly higher level and as a result relies more on
PMDs to process and validate flow rules.

Benefits:

- A unified API is easier to program for, applications do not have to be
  written for a specific filter type which may or may not be supported by
  the underlying device.

- The behavior of a flow rule is the same regardless of the underlying
  device, applications do not need to be aware of hardware quirks.

- Extensible by design, API/ABI breakage should rarely occur if at all.

- Documentation is self-standing, no need to look up elsewhere.

Existing filter types will be deprecated and removed in the near future.
