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.

This patch adds support for building and running mlx5 PMD on
32bit systems such as i686.
The main issue to tackle was handling the 32bit access to the UAR
as quoted from the mlx5 PRM:
QP and CQ DoorBells require 64-bit writes. For best performance, it
is recommended to execute the QP/CQ DoorBell as a single 64-bit write
operation. For platforms that do not support 64 bit writes, it is
possible to issue the 64 bits DoorBells through two consecutive
writes,
each write 32 bits, as described below:
* The order of writing each of the Dwords is from lower to upper
addresses.
* No other DoorBell can be rung (or even start ringing) in the midst
of an on-going write of a DoorBell over a given UAR page.
The last rule implies that in a multi-threaded environment, the access
to a UAR page (which can be accessible by all threads in the process)
must be synchronized (for example, using a semaphore) unless an atomic
write of 64 bits in a single bus operation is guaranteed. Such a
synchronization is not required for when ringing DoorBells on different
UAR pages.

Multi-Packet Receive Queue is to receive multiple packets on a single large
buffer. The number of consumed strides in CQE is accumulated to keep track
of the current stride index. However, it is safer to directly use stride
index in CQE to avoid out-of-order situation which can possibly be caused
by introducing LRO in the future.
If Rx CQE compression is enabled, HW can be configured to store the stride
index in a mini-CQE but this will need newer version of library/driver.
Therefore, since this change, MPRQ is only supported with the newer
library/driver and Rx hash result is not supported if MPRQ is enabled along
with Rx CQE compression.

Since ConnectX-5, SW parser just complements HW parser. SW parser starts to
engage only if HW parser can't reach a header. For the older devices, HW
parser will not kick in if any of SWP offsets is set. Therefore, all of the
L3 offsets should be set regardless of HW offload. As IPv6 doesn't have
header checksum, the mbuf can't have PKT_TX_[OUTER_]IP_CKSUM if outer or
inner L3 is IPv6.
And if inner packet isn't IP, the inner offsets shouldn't be set.

Multi-Packet Rx Queue (MPRQ a.k.a Striding RQ) can further save PCIe
bandwidth by posting a single large buffer for multiple packets. Instead of
posting a buffer per a packet, one large buffer is posted in order to
receive multiple packets on the buffer. A MPRQ buffer consists of multiple
fixed-size strides and each stride receives one packet.
Rx packet is mem-copied to a user-provided mbuf if the size of Rx packet is
comparatively small, or PMD attaches the Rx packet to the mbuf by external
buffer attachment - rte_pktmbuf_attach_extbuf(). A mempool for external
buffers will be allocated and managed by PMD.

This is the new design of Memory Region (MR) for mlx PMD, in order to:
- Accommodate the new memory hotplug model.
- Support non-contiguous Mempool.
There are multiple layers for MR search.
L0 is to look up the last-hit entry which is pointed by mr_ctrl->mru (Most
Recently Used). If L0 misses, L1 is to look up the address in a fixed-sized
array by linear search. L0/L1 is in an inline function -
mlx5_mr_lookup_cache().
If L1 misses, the bottom-half function is called to look up the address
from the bigger local cache of the queue. This is L2 - mlx5_mr_addr2mr_bh()
and it is not an inline function. Data structure for L2 is the Binary Tree.
If L2 misses, the search falls into the slowest path which takes locks in
order to access global device cache (priv->mr.cache) which is also a B-tree
and caches the original MR list (priv->mr.mr_list) of the device. Unless
the global cache is overflowed, it is all-inclusive of the MR list. This is
L3 - mlx5_mr_lookup_dev(). The size of the L3 cache table is limited and
can't be expanded on the fly due to deadlock. Refer to the comments in the
code for the details - mr_lookup_dev(). If L3 is overflowed, the list will
have to be searched directly bypassing the cache although it is slower.
If L3 misses, a new MR for the address should be created -
mlx5_mr_create(). When it creates a new MR, it tries to register adjacent
memsegs as much as possible which are virtually contiguous around the
address. This must take two locks - memory_hotplug_lock and
priv->mr.rwlock. Due to memory_hotplug_lock, there can't be any
allocation/free of memory inside.
In the free callback of the memory hotplug event, freed space is searched
from the MR list and corresponding bits are cleared from the bitmap of MRs.
This can fragment a MR and the MR will have multiple search entries in the
caches. Once there's a change by the event, the global cache must be
rebuilt and all the per-queue caches will be flushed as well. If memory is
frequently freed in run-time, that may cause jitter on dataplane processing
in the worst case by incurring MR cache flush and rebuild. But, it would be
the least probable scenario.
To guarantee the most optimal performance, it is highly recommended to use
an EAL option - '--socket-mem'. Then, the reserved memory will be pinned
and won't be freed dynamically. And it is also recommended to configure
per-lcore cache of Mempool. Even though there're many MRs for a device or
MRs are highly fragmented, the cache of Mempool will be much helpful to
reduce misses on per-queue caches anyway.
'--legacy-mem' is also supported.

Since its inception, the rte_flow RSS action has been relying in part on
external struct rte_eth_rss_conf for compatibility with the legacy RSS API.
This structure lacks parameters such as the hash algorithm to use, and more
recently, a method to tell which layer RSS should be performed on [1].
Given struct rte_eth_rss_conf will never be flexible enough to represent a
complete RSS configuration (e.g. RETA table), this patch supersedes it by
extending the rte_flow RSS action directly.
A subsequent patch will add a field to use a non-default RSS hash
algorithm. To that end, a field named "types" replaces the field formerly
known as "rss_hf" and standing for "RSS hash functions" as it was
confusing. Actual RSS hash function types are defined by enum
rte_eth_hash_function.
This patch updates all PMDs and example applications accordingly.
It breaks ABI compatibility for the following public functions:
- rte_flow_copy()
- rte_flow_create()
- rte_flow_query()
- rte_flow_validate()
