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/.

c711ccb309 ivshmem: remove library and its EAL integration
Following discussions on the mailing list [1] and since nobody stood up to
implement the necessary cleanups, here is the ivshmem integration removal.

There is not much to say about this patch, a lot of code is being removed.
The default configuration file for packet_ordering example is replaced with
the "native" x86 file.
The only tricky part is in eal_memory with the memseg index stuff.

More cleanups can be done after this but will come in subsequent patchsets.

8a3433af84 doc: announce vhost-cuse removal
Vhost-cuse was invented before vhost-user exist. The both are actually
doing the same thing: a vhost-net implementation in user space. But they
are not exactly the same thing.

Firstly, vhost-cuse is harder for use; no one seems to care it, either.
Furthermore, since v2.1, a large majority of development effort has gone
to vhost-user. For example, we extended the vhost-user spec to add the
multiple queue support. We also added the vhost-user live migration at
v16.04 and the latest one, vhost-user reconnect that allows vhost app
restart without restarting the guest. Both of them are very important
features for product usage and none of them works for vhost-cuse.

You now see that the difference between vhost-user and vhost-cuse is
big (and will be bigger and bigger as time moves forward), that you
should never use vhost-cuse, that we should drop it completely.

The remove would also result to a much cleaner code base, allowing us
to do all kinds of extending easier.

So here to mark vhost-cuse as deprecated in this release and will be
removed in the next release (v16.11).

ad5fd43ba1 doc: announce ABI change for Tx preparation
This is an ABI deprecation notice for DPDK 16.11 in librte_ether about
changes in rte_eth_dev and rte_eth_desc_lim structures.

As discussed in that thread:

http://dpdk.org/ml/archives/dev/2015-September/023603.html

Different NIC models depending on HW offload requested might impose
different requirements on packets to be TX-ed in terms of:

 - Max number of fragments per packet allowed
 - Max number of fragments per TSO segments
 - The way pseudo-header checksum should be pre-calculated
 - L3/L4 header fields filling
 - etc.

MOTIVATION:
-----------

1) Some work cannot (and didn't should) be done in rte_eth_tx_burst.
   However, this work is sometimes required, and now, it's an
   application issue.

2) Different hardware may have different requirements for TX offloads,
   other subset can be supported and so on.

3) Some parameters (eg. number of segments in ixgbe driver) may hung
   device. These parameters may be vary for different devices.

   For example i40e HW allows 8 fragments per packet, but that is after
   TSO segmentation. While ixgbe has a 38-fragment pre-TSO limit.

4) Fields in packet may require different initialization (like eg. will
   require pseudo-header checksum precalculation, sometimes in a
   different way depending on packet type, and so on). Now application
   needs to care about it.

5) Using additional API (rte_eth_tx_prep) before rte_eth_tx_burst let to
   prepare packet burst in acceptable form for specific device.

6) Some additional checks may be done in debug mode keeping tx_burst
   implementation clean.

PROPOSAL:
---------

To help user to deal with all these varieties we propose to:

1. Introduce rte_eth_tx_prep() function to do necessary preparations of
   packet burst to be safely transmitted on device for desired HW
   offloads (set/reset checksum field according to the hardware
   requirements) and check HW constraints (number of segments per
   packet, etc).

   While the limitations and requirements may differ for devices, it
   requires to extend rte_eth_dev structure with new function pointer
   "tx_pkt_prep" which can be implemented in the driver to prepare and
   verify packets, in devices specific way, before burst, what should to
   prevent application to send malformed packets.

2. Also new fields will be introduced in rte_eth_desc_lim:
   nb_seg_max and nb_mtu_seg_max, providing an information about max
   segments in TSO and non-TSO packets acceptable by device.

   This information is useful for application to not create/limit
   malicious packet.

APPLICATION (CASE OF USE):
--------------------------

1) Application should to initialize burst of packets to send, set
   required tx offload flags and required fields, like l2_len, l3_len,
   l4_len, and tso_segsz

2) Application passes burst to the rte_eth_tx_prep to check conditions
   required to send packets through the NIC.

3) The result of rte_eth_tx_prep can be used to send valid packets
   and/or restore invalid if function fails.

eg.

	for (i = 0; i < nb_pkts; i++) {

		/* initialize or process packet */

		bufs[i]->tso_segsz = 800;
		bufs[i]->ol_flags = PKT_TX_TCP_SEG | PKT_TX_IPV4
				| PKT_TX_IP_CKSUM;
		bufs[i]->l2_len = sizeof(struct ether_hdr);
		bufs[i]->l3_len = sizeof(struct ipv4_hdr);
		bufs[i]->l4_len = sizeof(struct tcp_hdr);
	}

	/* Prepare burst of TX packets */
	nb_prep = rte_eth_tx_prep(port, 0, bufs, nb_pkts);

	if (nb_prep < nb_pkts) {
		printf("tx_prep failed\n");

		/* drop or restore invalid packets */

	}

	/* Send burst of TX packets */
	nb_tx = rte_eth_tx_burst(port, 0, bufs, nb_prep);

	/* Free any unsent packets. */

a0fd91cefc mempool: rename functions with confusing names
The mempool_count and mempool_free_count behaved contrary to what their
names suggested. The free_count function actually returned the number of
elements that were allocated from the pool, not the number unallocated as
the name implied.

Fix this by introducing two new functions to replace the old ones,
* rte_mempool_avail_count to replace rte_mempool_count
* rte_mempool_in_use_count to replace rte_mempool_free_count

In this patch, the new functions are added, and the old ones are marked
as deprecated. All apps and examples that use the old functions are
updated to use the new functions.

PMDs not advertising the same flags in similar conditions.

Following discussion in [1], introduce 2 new flags PKT_RX_VLAN_STRIPPED
and PKT_RX_QINQ_STRIPPED that are better defined:

  PKT_RX_VLAN_STRIPPED: a vlan has been stripped by the hardware and its
  tci is saved in mbuf->vlan_tci. This can only happen if vlan stripping
  is enabled in the RX configuration of the PMD.

For now, the old flag PKT_RX_VLAN_PKT is kept but marked as deprecated.
It should be removed from applications and PMDs in a future revision.

This patch also updates the drivers. For PKT_RX_VLAN_PKT:

- e1000, enic, i40e, mlx5, nfp, vmxnet3: done, PKT_RX_VLAN_PKT already
  had the same meaning than PKT_RX_VLAN_STRIPPED, minor update is
  required.
- fm10k: done, PKT_RX_VLAN_PKT already had the same meaning than
  PKT_RX_VLAN_STRIPPED, and vlan stripping is always enabled on fm10k.
- ixgbe: modification done (vector and normal), the old flag was set
  when a vlan was recognized, even if vlan stripping was disabled.
- the other drivers do not support vlan stripping.

For PKT_RX_QINQ_PKT, it was only supported on i40e, and the behavior was
already correct, so we can reuse the same bit value for
PKT_RX_QINQ_STRIPPED.

a3f34a98b7 log: deprecate history dump
The log history uses rte_mempool. In order to remove the mempool
dependency in EAL (and improve the build), this feature is deprecated.
The ABI is kept but the behaviour is now voided because it seems this
function was not used. The history can be read from syslog.

213af31e09 mempool: reduce structure size if no cache needed
The rte_mempool structure is changed, which will cause an ABI change
for this structure. Providing backward compat is not reasonable
here as this structure is used in multiple defines/inlines.

Allow mempool cache support to be dynamic depending on if the
mempool being created needs cache support. Saves about 1.5M of
memory used by the rte_mempool structure.

Allocating small mempools which do not require cache can consume
larges amounts of memory if you have a number of these mempools.

The driver i40e was using a specific PCI config before the release 16.04.
Since 16.04, it is always enabled in i40e (commit 56465cfaf).
The API has been deprecated in the commit 68f77593823cab.

f4f136c8c4 doc: announce API changes for vhost refactoring
We currently exposed way too many fields (or even structures) than
necessary. For example, vhost_virtqueue struct should NOT be exposed
to user at all: application just need to tell the right queue id to
locate a specific queue, and that's all. Instead, the structure should
be defined in an internal header file. With that, we could do any changes
to it we want, without worrying about that we may offense the painful
ABI rules.

Similar changes could be done to virtio_net struct as well, just exposing
very few fields that are necessary and moving all others to an internal
structure.

Huawei then suggested a more radical yet much cleaner one: just exposing
a virtio_net handle to application, just like the way kernel exposes an
fd to user for locating a specific file, and exposing some new functions
to access those old fields, such as flags, virt_qp_nb.

With this change, we're likely to be free from ABI violations forever
(well, except when we have to extend the virtio_net_device_ops struct).
For example, following nice cleanup would not be a blocking one then:

The purpose of this patch is used to add a new field
"class" in rte_pci_id structure. The new class field includes
class_id, subcalss_id, programming interface of a pci device.
With this field, we can identify pci device by its class info,
which can be more flexible instead of probing the device by
vendor_id OR device_id OR subvendor_id OR subdevice_id.
For example, we can probe all nvme devices by class field, which
can be quite convenient.

This patch redesigns the API to set the link speed/s configuration
of an ethernet port. Specifically:

- it allows to define a set of advertised speeds for
  auto-negociation.
- it allows to disable link auto-negociation (single fixed speed).
- default: auto-negociate all supported speeds.

A flag autoneg in struct rte_eth_link indicates if link speed was a
result of auto-negociation or was fixed by configuration.
