a3acc3144a mbuf: add pool ops selection functions
This patch add support for various mempool ops config helper APIs.

1.User defined mempool ops
2.Platform detected HW mempool ops (active).
3.Best selection of mempool ops by looking into user defined,
  platform registered and compile time configured.

8b0f7f4341 mbuf: maintain user and compile time mempool ops name
At present the userdefined mempool ops name overwrites
the default mempool ops name variable in internal_config.

This patch change the logic to maintain the value of
user defined only in the internal config.

The pktmbuf_create_pool is updated to reflect the same ie.
use user defined. If not present than use the default.

6d714a237d mbuf: fix performance of freeing with non atomic refcnt
When RTE_MBUF_REFCNT_ATOMIC=n, the decrement of the mbuf reference
counter uses an atomic operation. This is not necessary and impacts
the performance (seen with TRex traffic generator).

We cannot replace rte_atomic16_add_return() by rte_mbuf_refcnt_update()
because it would add an additional check.

Solves this by introducing __rte_mbuf_refcnt_update(), which
updates the reference counter without doing anything else.

0d440d081c lib: fix missing includes in exported headers
Many exported headers rely on definitions found in rte_config.h without
including it, as shown by the following command:

 grep -L '^#include <rte_config.h>' -- \
  $(grep -Rl \
    $(sed -n '/^#define \([^ ]\+\).*$/{s//\1/;H;};${x;s/\n//;s/\n/\\|/g;p;}' \
      build/include/rte_config.h) \
    -- build/include/)

We cannot assume external applications will include rte_config.h on their
own, neither directly nor through a -include parameter like DPDK does
internally.

This not only causes obvious compilation failures that can be reproduced
with check-includes.sh such as:

 [...]/rte_memory.h:88:43: error: ‘RTE_CACHE_LINE_SIZE’ was not declared in
     this scope
  #define __rte_cache_aligned __rte_aligned(RTE_CACHE_LINE_SIZE)
                                            ^

It also results in less visible issues, for instance rte_hash_crc.h relying
on RTE_ARCH_X86_64's presence to provide dedicated inline functions.

This patch partially reverts the commit below and adds missing include
lines to the remaining files.

380a7aab1a mbuf: rename deprecated VLAN flags
PKT_RX_VLAN_PKT and PKT_RX_QINQ_PKT are deprecated for a while.
As explained in [1], these flags were kept to let the applications and
PMDs move to the new flag. There is also a need to support Rx vlan
offload without vlan strip (at least for the ixgbe driver).

This patch renames the old flags for this feature, knowing that some
PMDs were using PKT_RX_VLAN_PKT and PKT_RX_QINQ_PKT to indicate that
the vlan tci has been saved in the mbuf structure.

It is likely that some PMDs do not set the proper flags when doing vlan
offload, and it would be worth making a pass on all of them.

586ec205bc mbuf: fix 64-bit address alignment in 32-bit builds
On i686 builds, the uin64_t type is 64-bits in size but is aligned to
32-bits only. This causes mbuf fields for rearm_data to not be 16-byte
aligned on 32-bit builds, which causes errors with some vector PMDs which
expect the rearm data to be aligned as on 64-bit.

Given that we cannot use the extra space in the data structures anyway, as
it's already used on 64-bit builds, we can just force alignment of the
physical address in the mbuf to 8-bytes in all cases. This has no effect on
64-bit systems, but fixes the updated PMDs on 32-bit.

8f094a9ac5 mbuf: set mbuf fields while in pool
Set the value of m->refcnt to 1, m->nb_segs to 1 and m->next
to NULL when the mbuf is stored inside the mempool (unused).
This is done in rte_pktmbuf_prefree_seg(), before freeing or
recycling a mbuf.

Before this patch, the value of m->refcnt was expected to be 0
while in pool.

The objectives are:

- to avoid drivers to set m->next to NULL in the early Rx path, since
  this field is in the second 64B of the mbuf and its access could
  trigger a cache miss

- rationalize the behavior of raw_alloc/raw_free: one is now the
  symmetric of the other, and refcnt is never changed in these functions.

To optimize the freeing of the segments, we try try to only update
m->refcnt, m->next, and m->nb_segs when it's required (idea from
Konstantin Ananyev <konstantin.ananyev@intel.com>).

feb9f680cd mk: optimize directory dependencies
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.

5a11168d9b mbuf: use pktmbuf helper to create the pool
When possible, replace the uses of rte_mempool_create() with
the helper provided in librte_mbuf: rte_pktmbuf_pool_create().

This is the preferred way to create a mbuf pool.

This also updates the documentation.

1feda4d8fc mbuf: add a function to linearize a packet
This patch adds function rte_pktmbuf_linearize to let crypto PMD coalesce
chained mbuf before crypto operation and extend their capabilities to
support segmented mbufs when device cannot handle them natively.

Included unit tests for rte_pktmbuf_linearize functionality:

 1) Creates banch of segmented mbufs with different size and number of
    segments.
 2) Fills noncontigouos mbuf with sequential values.
 3) Uses rte_pktmbuf_linearize to coalesce segmented buffer into one
    contiguous.
 4) Verifies data in linearized buffer.

enable the MACsec offload for a packet to be transmitted.

4fb7e803eb ethdev: add Tx preparation
Added API for `rte_eth_tx_prepare`

uint16_t rte_eth_tx_prepare(uint8_t port_id, uint16_t queue_id,
	struct rte_mbuf **tx_pkts, uint16_t nb_pkts)

Added fields to the `struct rte_eth_desc_lim`:

	uint16_t nb_seg_max;
		/**< Max number of segments per whole packet. */

	uint16_t nb_mtu_seg_max;
		/**< Max number of segments per one MTU */

These fields can be used to create valid packets according to the
following rules:

 * For non-TSO packet, a single transmit packet may span up to
   "nb_mtu_seg_max" buffers.

 * For TSO packet the total number of data descriptors is "nb_seg_max",
   and each segment within the TSO may span up to "nb_mtu_seg_max".

Added functions:

int
rte_validate_tx_offload(struct rte_mbuf *m)

  to validate general requirements for tx offload set in mbuf of packet
  such a flag completness. In current implementation this function is
  called optionaly when RTE_LIBRTE_ETHDEV_DEBUG is enabled.

int rte_net_intel_cksum_prepare(struct rte_mbuf *m)

  to prepare pseudo header checksum for TSO and non-TSO tcp/udp packets
  before hardware tx checksum offload.
   - for non-TSO tcp/udp packets full pseudo-header checksum is
     counted and set.
   - for TSO the IP payload length is not included.

int
rte_net_intel_cksum_flags_prepare(struct rte_mbuf *m, uint64_t ol_flags)

  this function uses same logic as rte_net_intel_cksum_prepare, but
  allows application to choose which offloads should be taken into
  account, if full preparation is not required.

PERFORMANCE TESTS
-----------------

This feature was tested with modified csum engine from test-pmd.

The packet checksum preparation was moved from application to Tx
preparation step placed before burst.

We may expect some overhead costs caused by:
1) using additional callback before burst,
2) rescanning burst,
3) additional condition checking (packet validation),
4) worse optimization (e.g. packet data access, etc.)

We tested it using ixgbe Tx preparation implementation with some parts
disabled to have comparable information about the impact of different
parts of implementation.

IMPACT:

1) For unimplemented Tx preparation callback the performance impact is
   negligible,
2) For packet condition check without checksum modifications (nb_segs,
   available offloads, etc.) is 14626628/14252168 (~2.62% drop),
3) Full support in ixgbe driver (point 2 + packet checksum
   initialization) is 14060924/13588094 (~3.48% drop)
