a4fd5eeead app/testpmd: refine xstats show
When using "show port xstats all" command to show xstats, the output
is usually too long to obtain what you really want, especially when
multi-queue is enabled.

3c272b280a app/testpmd: add commands for RSS queue region
This patch add a API configuration of queue region in rss.
It can parse the parameters of region index, queue number,
queue start index, user priority, traffic classes and so on.
According to commands from command line, it will call i40e
private API and start the process of set or flush queue region
configure. As this feature is specific for i40e, so private API
will be used. Aslo add a document for these new commands.
Queue region only support PF by now, so this document is
only for configuration of queue region on PF port.

5b590fbe09 app/testpmd: add traffic management forwarding mode
This commit extends the testpmd application with new forwarding engine
that demonstrates the use of ethdev traffic management APIs and softnic
PMD for QoS traffic management.

In this mode, 5-level hierarchical tree of the QoS scheduler is built
with the help of ethdev TM APIs such as shaper profile add/delete,
shared shaper add/update, node add/delete, hierarchy commit, etc.
The hierarchical tree has following nodes; root node(x1, level 0),
subport node(x1, level 1), pipe node(x4096, level 2),
tc node(x16348, level 3), queue node(x65536, level 4).

During runtime, each received packet is first classified by mapping the
packet fields information to 5-tuples (HQoS subport, pipe, traffic class,
queue within traffic class, and color) and storing it in the packet mbuf
sched field. After classification, each packet is sent to softnic port
which prioritizes the transmission of the received packets, and
accordingly sends them on to the output interface.

To enable traffic management mode, following testpmd command is used;

$ ./testpmd -c c -n 4 --vdev
	'net_softnic0,hard_name=0000:06:00.1,soft_tm=on' -- -i
	--forward-mode=tm

52f38a2055 app/testpmd: enable TCP/IPv4 VxLAN and GRE GSO
This patch adds GSO support to the csum forwarding engine. Oversized
packets transmitted over a GSO-enabled port will undergo segmentation
(with the exception of packet-types unsupported by the GSO library).
GSO support is disabled by default.

GSO support may be toggled on a per-port basis, using the command:

        "set port <port_id> gso on|off"

The maximum packet length (including the packet header and payload) for
GSO segments may be set with the command:

        "set gso segsz <length>"

Show GSO configuration for a given port with the command:

	"show port <port_id> gso"

b7091f1dcf app/testpmd: enable the heavyweight mode TCP/IPv4 GRO
The GRO library provides two modes to reassemble packets. Currently, the
csum forwarding engine has supported to use the lightweight mode to
reassemble TCP/IPv4 packets. This patch introduces the heavyweight mode
for TCP/IPv4 GRO in the csum forwarding engine.

With the command "set port <port_id> gro on|off", users can enable
TCP/IPv4 GRO for a given port. With the command "set gro flush <cycles>",
users can determine when the GROed TCP/IPv4 packets are flushed from
reassembly tables. With the command "show port <port_id> gro", users can
display GRO configuration.

The GRO library doesn't re-calculate checksums for merged packets. If
users want the merged packets to have correct IP and TCP checksums,
please select HW IP checksum calculation and HW TCP checksum calculation
for the port which the merged packets are transmitted to.

323f811a4a ethdev: add isolated mode to flow API
Isolated mode can be requested by applications on individual ports to avoid
ingress traffic outside of the flow rules they define.

Besides making ingress more deterministic, it allows PMDs to safely reuse
resources otherwise assigned to handle the remaining traffic, such as
global RSS configuration settings, VLAN filters, MAC address entries,
legacy filter API rules and so on in order to expand the set of possible
flow rule types.

To minimize code complexity, PMDs implementing this mode may provide
partial (or even no) support for flow rules when not enabled (e.g. no
priorities, no RSS action). Applications written to use the flow API are
therefore encouraged to enable it.

Once effective, leaving isolated mode may not be possible depending on PMD
implementation.

35b09d76f8 doc: use corelist instead of coremask
The coremask option in DPDK is difficult to use and we should be
promoting the use of the corelist (-l) option. The patch
adjusts the docs to use -l EAL option instead of the -c option.

The patch only changes the docs and not the code as the -c option
will continue to exist unless it is removed in the future. The -c
option should be kept to maintain backward compatibility.
