Add RTE_DEVEL_BUILD make-variable which can be used to do things
differently when doing development vs building a release,
autodetected from source root .git presence and overridable via
commandline. It is used it to enable -Werror compiler flag and may
be extended to other checks.
Failing build on warnings is a useful developer tool but its bad
for release tarballs which can and do get built with newer
compilers than what was used/available during development. Compilers
routinely add new warnings so code which built silently with cc X
might no longer do so with X+1. This doesn't make the existing code
any more buggier and failing the build in this case does not help
to improve the quality of an already released version either.
This change the default flags which can be tuned with EXTRA_CFLAGS.

The physically linked-together combined library has been an increasing
source of problems, as was predicted when library and symbol versioning
was introduced. Replace the complex and fragile construction with a
simple linker script which achieves the same without all the problems,
remove the related kludges from eg mlx drivers.
Since creating the linker script is practically zero cost, remove the
config option and just create it always.
Based on a patch by Sergio Gonzales Monroy, linker script approach
initially suggested by Neil Horman.

How to reproduce:
1. Start vhost-switch
./examples/vhost/build/vhost-switch -c 0x3 -n 4 -- -p 1 --stat 0
2. Start VM with a virtio port
$ $QEMU -smp cores=2,sockets=1 -m 4G -cpu host -enable-kvm \
-chardev socket,id=char1,path=<path to vhost-user socket> \
-device virtio-net-pci,netdev=vhostuser1 \
-netdev vhost-user,id=vhostuser1,chardev=char1
-object memory-backend-file,id=mem,size=4G,mem-path=<hugetlbfs path>,share=on \
-numa node,memdev=mem -mem-prealloc \
-hda <path to VM img>
3. Start l2fwd in VM
$ ./examples/l2fwd/build/l2fwd -c 0x1 -n 4 -m 1024 -- -p 0x1
4. Use ixia to inject packets in a small data bit rate.
Error:
vhost-switch keeps printing error message:
failed to allocate memory for mbuf.
Root cause:
How many mbufs allocated for a port is calculated by below formula.
NUM_MBUFS_PER_PORT = ((MAX_QUEUES*RTE_TEST_RX_DESC_DEFAULT) + \
(num_switching_cores*MAX_PKT_BURST) + \
(num_switching_cores*RTE_TEST_TX_DESC_DEFAULT) +\
(num_switching_cores*MBUF_CACHE_SIZE))
We suppose num_switching_cores is 1 and MBUF_CACHE_SIZE is 128.
And when initializing port, master core fills mbuf mempool cache,
so there would be some left in that cache, for example 121.
So total mbufs which can be used is:
(MAX_PKT_BURST + MBUF_CACHE_SIZE - 121) = (32 + 128 - 121) = 39.
What makes it worse is that there is a buffer to store mbufs
(which will be tx_burst to physical port), if it occupies some mbufs,
there will be possible < 32 mbufs left, so vhost dequeue prints out
this msg.
In all, it fails to include master core's mbuf mempool cache.

Add guest offload setting in vhost lib.
Virtio 1.0 spec (5.1.6.4 Processing of Incoming Packets) says:
1. If the VIRTIO_NET_F_GUEST_CSUM feature was negotiated, the
VIRTIO_NET_HDR_F_NEEDS_CSUM bit in flags can be set: if so,
the packet checksum at offset csum_offset from csum_start
and any preceding checksums have been validated. The checksum
on the packet is incomplete and csum_start and csum_offset
indicate how to calculate it (see Packet Transmission point 1).
2. If the VIRTIO_NET_F_GUEST_TSO4, TSO6 or UFO options were
negotiated, then gso_type MAY be something other than
VIRTIO_NET_HDR_GSO_NONE, and gso_size field indicates the
desired MSS (see Packet Transmission point 2).
In order to support these features, the following changes are added,
1. Extend 'VHOST_SUPPORTED_FEATURES' macro to add the offload features negotiation.
2. Enqueue these offloads: convert some fields in mbuf to the fields in virtio_net_hdr.
There are more explanations for the implementation.
For VM2VM case, there is no need to do checksum, for we think the
data should be reliable enough, and setting VIRTIO_NET_HDR_F_NEEDS_CSUM
at RX side will let the TCP layer to bypass the checksum validation,
so that the RX side could receive the packet in the end.
In terms of us-vhost, at vhost RX side, the offload information is
inherited from mbuf, which is in turn inherited from TX side. If we
can still get those info at RX side, it means the packet is from
another VM at same host. So, it's safe to set the
VIRTIO_NET_HDR_F_NEEDS_CSUM, to skip checksum validation.

Modern (v1.0) virtio pci device defines several pci capabilities.
Each cap has a configure structure corresponding to it, and the
cap.bar and cap.offset fields tell us where to find it.
Firstly, we map the pci resources by rte_eal_pci_map_device().
We then could easily locate a cfg structure by:
cfg_addr = dev->mem_resources[cap.bar].addr + cap.offset;
Therefore, the entrance of enabling modern (v1.0) pci device support
is to iterate the pci capability lists, and to locate some configs
we care; and they are:
- common cfg
For generic virtio and virtqueue configuration, such as setting/getting
features, enabling a specific queue, and so on.
- nofity cfg
Combining with `queue_notify_off' from common cfg, we could use it to
notify a specific virt queue.
- device cfg
Where virtio_net_config structure is located.
- isr cfg
Where to read isr (interrupt status).
If any of above cap is not found, we fallback to the legacy virtio
handling.
If succeed, hw->vtpci_ops is assigned to modern_ops, where all
operations are implemented by reading/writing a (or few) specific
configuration space from above 4 cfg structures. And that's basically
how this patch works.
Besides those changes, virtio 1.0 introduces a new status field:
FEATURES_OK, which is set after features negotiation is done.
Last, set the VIRTIO_F_VERSION_1 feature flag.
