b8ac090835 net/mlx5: fix RSS flow action hash type selection
On the code after the below commits, the criteria to select the IPV4 or
IPV6 hash functions was the existence of some ETH_RSS_IPV4 RSS types on
the flow rule.

The check is wrong. For example ETH_RSS_NONFRAG_IPV4_TCP will not select
the IPV4 hash which will cause the packet to be spread in a bad way.

Fix it by adding the corresponding types needed for each hash selection.

dd6eaddff7 net/mlx5: fix RSS flow configuration crash
This commit fixes a segmentation fault observed when configuring

9da1db6bbf net/mlx5: fix VLAN filtering
The below commit has added a graph based expansion logic for RSS rule to
satisfy Verbs requirements. With this logic, for example, the rule:

flow create 0 ingress pattern eth / end actions rss queues 0 1 end types
ipv4-tcp ipv6-tcp end / end

will be expanded into the rules:

flow create 0 ingress pattern eth / ipv4 / tcp / end actions rss queues 0 1
end types ipv4-tcp ipv6-tcp end / end

flow create 0 ingress pattern eth / ipv6 / tcp / end actions rss queues 0 1
end types ipv4-tcp ipv6-tcp end / end

flow create 0 ingress pattern eth / end actions queue index 0 / end

The below commit defined two graphs:
1. graph for the tunnel case which starts from the ETH item
2. graph for the non-tunnel case which starts from the ETH item

The graphs are ignoring the VLAN case. Hence rules with VLAN item will
fail to traverse the graph and it will result in flow rule creation error.

Adding the VLAN item to the existing graphs will not work as the flow
engine will reject any VLAN item without a specific vid.

To solve this case two new graphs were added (for the tunnel and
non-tunnel case) which contain the VLAN item and are being used only
when the VLAN item exists in the flow pattern.

Two cases left un-covered for the inner RSS:
1. The case were VLAN exists in the pattern as part of the inner headers
2. The case were VLAN exists in the pattern both in the outer and the
inner headers

Solving those cases will require to add two more graphs.
Holding a VLAN for the overlay network is not common, the subnets are
usually defined by the tunnel protocol, for example the VXLAN vni.
Hence adding those two graphs seems like an overkill at this point.
Based on needs one can add those to provide the full support.

2d3b832052 net/mlx5: fix packet type offload for tunnels
There are dedicated QP attributes, tunnel offload flag and mask, which
must be configured in order to allow part of the HW tunnel offloads.

So, if a QP is pointed by a tunnel flow, the above QP attributes
should be configured.

The mask configuration is wrongly only performed if an internal RSS was
configured by the user, while there is no reason to condition the
tunnel offloads in RSS configurations.

Consequently, some of the tunnel offloads was not performed by the HW
when a tunnel flow was configured, for example, the packet tunnel
types was not reported to the user.

Replace the internal RSS condition with the tunnel flow condition.

8f9059ccee net/mlx5: add framework for switch flow rules
Because mlx5 switch flow rules are configured through Netlink (TC
interface) and have little in common with Verbs, this patch adds a separate
parser function to handle them.

- mlx5_nl_flow_transpose() converts a rte_flow rule to its TC equivalent
  and stores the result in a buffer.

- mlx5_nl_flow_brand() gives a unique handle to a flow rule buffer.

- mlx5_nl_flow_create() instantiates a flow rule on the device based on
  such a buffer.

- mlx5_nl_flow_destroy() performs the reverse operation.

These functions are called by the existing implementation when encountering
flow rules which must be offloaded to the switch (currently relying on the
transfer attribute).

e58638c324 ethdev: fix TPID handling in flow API
TPID handling in rte_flow VLAN and E_TAG pattern item definitions is not
consistent with the normal stacking order of pattern items, which is
confusing to applications.

Problem is that when followed by one of these layers, the EtherType field
of the preceding layer keeps its "inner" definition, and the "outer" TPID
is provided by the subsequent layer, the reverse of how a packet looks like
on the wire:

 Wire:     [ ETH TPID = A | VLAN EtherType = B | B DATA ]
 rte_flow: [ ETH EtherType = B | VLAN TPID = A | B DATA ]

Worse, when QinQ is involved, the stacking order of VLAN layers is
unspecified. It is unclear whether it should be reversed (innermost to
outermost) as well given TPID applies to the previous layer:

 Wire:       [ ETH TPID = A | VLAN TPID = B | VLAN EtherType = C | C DATA ]
 rte_flow 1: [ ETH EtherType = C | VLAN TPID = B | VLAN TPID = A | C DATA ]
 rte_flow 2: [ ETH EtherType = C | VLAN TPID = A | VLAN TPID = B | C DATA ]

While specifying EtherType/TPID is hopefully rarely necessary, the stacking
order in case of QinQ and the lack of documentation remain an issue.

This patch replaces TPID in the VLAN pattern item with an inner
EtherType/TPID as is usually done everywhere else (e.g. struct vlan_hdr),
clarifies documentation and updates all relevant code.

It breaks ABI compatibility for the following public functions:

- rte_flow_copy()
- rte_flow_create()
- rte_flow_query()
- rte_flow_validate()

Summary of changes for PMDs that implement ETH, VLAN or E_TAG pattern
items:

- bnxt: EtherType matching is supported with and without VLAN, but TPID
  matching is not and triggers an error.

- e1000: EtherType matching is only supported with the ETHERTYPE filter,
  which does not support VLAN matching, therefore no impact.

- enic: same as bnxt.

- i40e: same as bnxt with existing FDIR limitations on allowed EtherType
  values. The remaining filter types (VXLAN, NVGRE, QINQ) do not support
  EtherType matching.

- ixgbe: same as e1000, with additional minor change to rely on the new
  E-Tag macro definition.

- mlx4: EtherType/TPID matching is not supported, no impact.

- mlx5: same as bnxt.

- mvpp2: same as bnxt.

- sfc: same as bnxt.

- tap: same as bnxt.
