This error can be raised:
lib/librte_kni/rte_kni.c:531:15: error:

It should not happen because kni_fifo_get() would return 0 if
req is not initialized, so the function would return before using req.
But GCC complains about it in -O1 optimization,
and a NULL initialization is harmless here.

Long time ago preallocation of memory for KNI was introduced in commit
0c6bc8e. It was done because of lack of ability to free previously
allocated memzones, which led to memzone exhaustion. Currently memzones
can be freed and this patch uses this ability for dynamic KNI memory
allocation.

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 assume a valid port index is in the range [0..count[.
There are three consequences when using such wrong design:
- new ports having an index higher than the port count won't be valid
- old ports being detached (RTE_ETH_DEV_UNUSED) can be valid
Such mistake will be less common with growing hotplug awareness.

In kni_allocate_mbufs(), we attempt to add max_burst (32) count of mbuf
always into alloc_q, which is excessively leading too many rte_pktmbuf_

In a situation when alloc_q fifo can only accommodate very few (or zero)

With this patch, we could stop random network stall in KNI at higher packet

alloc_q on above condition. I tested i40e PMD for this purpose in ppc64le.

alloc_q and rx_q fifos holds physical address of the mbufs, and not able
to free those mbufs explicitly.
But kernel thread reads from rx_q and puts used mbufs into free_q (with
their virtual addresses.) And kernel thread stopped when application
close the /dev/kni file on exit. So rx_q has time to be consumed by
kernel thread but leak is technically possible.
Another fifo, alloc_q has physical addresses too, but all those coming
from same mempool provided by application, when application quit, all
mempool already returned back, so this leak can be ignored.
Added check and wait logic for rx_q to be sure kernel consumed the fifo,
an error message printed after some ammount of wait, and an explicit
mempool free added for alloc_q.

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.

Introduce rte_mempool_populate_default() which allocates
mempool objects in several memzones.
The mempool header is now always allocated in a specific memzone
(not with its objects). Thanks to this modification, we can remove
many specific behavior that was required when hugepages are not
enabled in case we are using rte_mempool_xmem_create().
This change requires to update how kni and mellanox drivers lookup for
mbuf memory. For now, this will only work if there is only one memory
chunk (like today), but we could make use of rte_mempool_mem_iter() to
support more memory chunks.
We can also remove RTE_MEMPOOL_OBJ_NAME that is not required anymore for
the lookup, as memory chunks are referenced by the mempool.
Note that rte_mempool_create() is still broken (it was the case before)
when there is no hugepages support (rte_mempool_create_xmem() has to be
used). This is fixed in next commit.

The current implementation of rte_kni_rx_burst polls the fifo for buffers.
Irrespective of success or failure, it allocates the mbuf and try to put them into the alloc_q
if the buffers are not added to alloc_q, it frees them.
This waste lots of cpu cycles in allocating and freeing the buffers if alloc_q is full.
The logic has been changed to:
1. Initially allocand add buffer(burstsize) to alloc_q
2. Add buffers to alloc_q only when you are pulling out the buffers.

The previous implementation of rte_kni_alloc() was allocating memzones with a
name composed of a fixed string and the interface name. When an application was
allocating and deallocating multiple interfaces with different names, memzones
were quickly exhausted, even though memzones from deallocated interfaces were
never used anymore (unless an interface with the same name was re-allocated).
As a result, the application was unable to allocate more KNI interfaces with
different names.
This patch implements the KNI memzone pool in order to prevent memzone
exhaustion when allocating/deallocating KNI interfaces. It adds a new API call,
rte_kni_init(max_kni_ifaces) that shall be called before any call to
rte_kni_alloc() if KNI is used. The memzones are pre-allocated with interface-
independent names so that they can be reused.
