This patch adds support for meter configuration profiles.
Benefits: simplified configuration procedure, improved performance.
Q1: What is the configuration profile and why does it make sense?
A1: The configuration profile represents the set of configuration
parameters for a given meter object, such as the rates and sizes for
the token buckets. The configuration profile concept makes sense when
many meter objects share the same configuration, which is the typical
usage model: thousands of traffic flows are each individually metered
according to just a few service levels (i.e. profiles).
Q2: How is the configuration profile improving the performance?
A2: The performance improvement is achieved by reducing the memory
footprint of a meter object, which results in better cache utilization
for the typical case when large arrays of meter objects are used. The
internal data structures stored for each meter object contain:
a) Constant fields: Low level translation of the configuration
parameters that does not change post-configuration. This is
really duplicated for all meters that use the same
configuration. This is the configuration profile data that is
moved away from the meter object. Current size (implementation
dependent): srTCM = 32 bytes, trTCM = 32 bytes.
b) Variable fields: Time stamps and running counters that change
during the on-going traffic metering process. Current size
(implementation dependent): srTCM = 24 bytes, trTCM = 32 bytes.
Therefore, by moving the constant fields to a separate profile
data structure shared by all the meters with the same
configuration, the size of the meter object is reduced by ~50%.

Since VF can not disable/enable HW CRC strip for non-DPDK PF drivers,
and kernel driver almost default enable that feature, if disable it in
example app's rxmode, VF driver will report the VF launch failure. So
this patch default to enable HW CRC strip to let VF launch successful.

The variable optind should be reset to one not zero.
From the man page:
"The variable optind is the index of the next element to be processed in
argv. The system initializes this value to 1.
The caller can reset it to 1 to restart scanning of the same argv, or when
scanning a new argument vector.”
The problem I saw with my application was trying to parse the wrong
option, which can happen as DPDK parses the first part of the command line
and the application parses the second part. If you call getopt() multiple
times in the same execution, the behavior is not maintained when using
zero for optind.

The internal buffering of packets for TX in sample apps is no longer
needed, so this patchset also replaces this code with calls to the new
rte_eth_tx_buffer* APIs in:
* l2fwd-jobstats
* l2fwd-keepalive
* l2fwd
* l3fwd-acl
* l3fwd-power
* link_status_interrupt
* client_server_mp
* l2fwd_fork
* packet_ordering
* qos_meter

Latest mbuf changes (priv_size addition and related fixes)
exposed small problem with testpmd and few other sample apps:
when mbuf size is exaclty 2KB or less, that causes
ixgbe PMD to select scattered RX even for configs with 'normal'
max packet length (max_rx_pkt_len == ETHER_MAX_LEN).
To overcome that problem and unify the code, new macro was created
to represent recommended minimal buffer length for mbuf.
When appropriate, samples are updated to use that macro.
Fixes: dfb03bbe2b ("app/testpmd: use standard functions to initialize
mbufs and mbuf pool")

When it's possible, use the new helper to create the mbuf pools.
Most of the patch is trivial, except for the following files that
have some specifics (indirect mbufs):
- ip_fragmentation
- ip_pipeline
- ipv4_multicast
- vhost

Since commit a155d430119 ("support link bonding device initialization"),
rte_eal_pci_probe() is called in rte_eal_init().
So it doesn't have to be called by application anymore.
It has been fixed for testpmd in commit 2950a769315,
and this patch remove it from other applications.

- i40e RSS flags have been added (and enlarged to 64-bit)
- A new configuration of 'uint8_t rss_key_len' has been added in

- In each PMD, only the supported flags are masked.
