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/')

Every cells of a driver column are painted in yellow.

The trick is to generate some empty content as a big column
above and below the pointed cell.

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
a transparent alpha ratio in order to see highlighting on such rows.

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

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
introduced.

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).

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.

5d8f0baf69 log: do not drop debug logs at compile time
Today, all logs whose level is lower than INFO are dropped at
compile-time. This prevents from enabling debug logs at runtime using
--log-level=8.

The rationale was to remove debug logs from the data path at
compile-time, avoiding a test at run-time.

This patch changes the behavior of RTE_LOG() to avoid the compile-time
optimization, and introduces the RTE_LOG_DP() macro that has the same
behavior than the previous RTE_LOG(), for the rare cases where debug
logs are in the data path.

So it is now possible to enable debug logs at run-time by just
specifying --log-level=8. Some drivers still have special compile-time
options to enable more debug log. Maintainers may consider to
remove/reduce them.

3bac1dbc1e doc: announce iomem and ioport removal from igb_uio
In igb_uio, iomem is mapped, and both ioport and io mem are recorded
into uio framework (then into sysfs files), which is duplicated with
what Linux has already provided for user space, and makes the code
too complex.

For iomem, DPDK user space code never opens or reads files under
/sys/pci/bus/devices/xxxx:xx:xx.x/uio/uioY/maps/. Instead,
/sys/pci/bus/devices/xxxx:xx:xx.x/resourceY are used to map device
memory.

For ioport, non-x86 platforms cannot read from files under
/sys/pci/bus/devices/xxxx:xx:xx.x/uio/uioY/portio/ directly, because
non-x86 platforms need to map port region for access in user space,
see non-x86 version pci_uio_ioport_map(). x86 platforms can use the
the same way as uio_pci_generic.

This will remove iomem and ioport mapping in igb_uio kernel module,
and adjusts the iomem implementation in both igb_uio and
uio_pci_generic:
  - for x86 platform, get ports info from /proc/ioports;
  - for non-x86 platform, map and get ports info by pci_uio_ioport_map().

Note: this will affect those applications who are using files under
/sys/pci/bus/devices/xxxx:xx:xx.x/uio/uioY/maps/ and
/sys/pci/bus/devices/xxxx:xx:xx.x/uio/uioY/portio/.

This enables the rendering of rst into man pages as well as installing
them (if built) along the binaries. To do so there is a new make target
"doc-guides-man" which will render the rst files into man format.

Currently these three tools had docs that were compatible "enough" to
make up for a reasonable manpage.
- testpmd
- dpdk-pdump
- dpdk-procinfo

Since a man page should be installed along the binary they are not
installed in install-doc but install-runtime insteade. If not explicitly
built by the "doc-guides-man" target before calling install-runtime
there is no change to the old behaviour.

aaffc740ec net/ixgbe: fix VF VLAN insert API
The final parameter to rte_pmd_ixgbe_set_vf_vlan_insert is uint8_t
and treated as a binary flag when it needs to be a uint16_t
and treated as a VLAN id.  The data sheet (sect 8.2.3.27.13) describes
the right most 16 bits as the VLAN id that is to be inserted; the
16.11  code is accepting only a 1 or 0 thus effectively only
allowing the VLAN id 1 to be inserted (0 disables the insertion
setting).

This patch changes the final parm name to represent the data that
is being accepted (vlan_id), changes the type to permit all valid
VLAN ids, and validates the parameter based on the range of 0 to
4095. Corresponding changes to prototype and documentation in the
.h file.

dfbd6a9cb5 net/enic: extend flow director support for 1300 series
1300 series Cisco adapter firmware version 2.0(13) for UCS
C-series servers and 3.1(2) for blade servers supports more
filtering capabilities. The feature can be enabled via Cisco
CIMC or USCM with the 'advanced filters' radio button. When
enabled, the these additional flow director modes are available:
	RTE_ETH_FLOW_NONFRAG_IPV4_OTHER
	RTE_ETH_FLOW_NONFRAG_IPV4_SCTP
	RTE_ETH_FLOW_NONFRAG_IPV6_UDP
	RTE_ETH_FLOW_NONFRAG_IPV6_TCP
	RTE_ETH_FLOW_NONFRAG_IPV6_SCTP
	RTE_ETH_FLOW_NONFRAG_IPV6_OTHER

Changes:
- Detect and set an 'advanced filters' flag dependent on the adapter
  capability.
- Implement RTE_ETH_FILTER_INFO filter op to return the flow types
  available dependent on whether advanced filters are enabled.
- Use a function pointer to select how filters are added to the adapter:
  copy_fltr_v1() for older firmware/adapters or copy_fltr_v2() for
  adapters which support advanced filters.
- Apply fdir global masks to filters when in advanced filter mode.
- Update documentation.

6ca3a595e0 mbuf: add flag for LRO
When receiving coalesced packets in virtio, the original size of the
segments is provided. This is a useful information because it allows to
resegment with the same size.

Add a RX new flag in mbuf, that can be set when packets are coalesced by
a hardware or virtual driver when the m->tso_segsz field is valid and is
set to the segment size of original packets.

This flag is used in next commits in the virtio pmd.

5842289a54 mbuf: add new Rx checksum flags
Following discussions in [1] and [2], introduce a new bit to
describe the Rx checksum status in mbuf.

Before this patch, only one flag was available:
  PKT_RX_L4_CKSUM_BAD: L4 cksum of RX pkt. is not OK.

And same for L3:
  PKT_RX_IP_CKSUM_BAD: IP cksum of RX pkt. is not OK.

This had 2 issues:
- it was not possible to differentiate "checksum good" from
  "checksum unknown".
- it was not possible for a virtual driver to say "the checksum
  in packet may be wrong, but data integrity is valid".

This patch tries to solve this issue by having 4 states (2 bits)
for the IP and L4 Rx checksums. New values are:

 - PKT_RX_L4_CKSUM_UNKNOWN: no information about the RX L4 checksum
   -> the application should verify the checksum by sw
 - PKT_RX_L4_CKSUM_BAD: the L4 checksum in the packet is wrong
   -> the application can drop the packet without additional check
 - PKT_RX_L4_CKSUM_GOOD: the L4 checksum in the packet is valid
   -> the application can accept the packet without verifying the
      checksum by sw
 - PKT_RX_L4_CKSUM_NONE: the L4 checksum is not correct in the packet
   data, but the integrity of the L4 data is verified.
   -> the application can process the packet but must not verify the
      checksum by sw. It has to take care to recalculate the cksum
      if the packet is transmitted (either by sw or using tx offload)

  And same for L3 (replace L4 by IP in description above).

This commit tries to be compatible with existing applications that
only check the existing flag (CKSUM_BAD).

ab09e04d2c net: add function to get packet type from data
Introduce the function rte_net_get_ptype() that parses a mbuf and
returns its packet type. For now, the following packet types are parsed:
   L2: Ether
   L3: IPv4, IPv6
   L4: TCP, UDP, SCTP

The goal here is to provide a reference implementation for packet type
parsing. This function will be used by testpmd in next commits, allowing
to compare its result with the value given by the hardware.

This function will also be useful when implementing Rx offload support
in virtio pmd. Indeed, the virtio protocol gives the csum start and
offset, but it does not give the L4 protocol nor it tells if the
checksum is relevant for inner or outer. This information has to be
known to properly set the ol_flags in mbuf.
