3a787d5bf1 meter: remove experimental tag from profile API
As per guideline that new APIs must be experimental
for at least one release, it is now possible to remove
the experimental tag from:

rte_meter_srtcm_profile_config()
rte_meter_trtcm_profile_config()

04db1d0da7 lib: clear experimental version tag in linker scripts
Remove version tag from experimental block in linker version scripts
(.map files).

That label is not used by linker and information only. It is useful
for version blocks but not useful for experimental block but confusing.
Removing those labels.

c06ddf9698 meter: add configuration profile
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%.

5b9656b157 lib: build with meson
Add non-EAL libraries to DPDK build. The compat lib is a special case,
along with the previously-added EAL, but all other libs can be build using
the same set of commands, where the individual meson.build files only need
to specify their dependencies, source files, header files and ABI versions.

cbc12b0a96 mk: do not generate LDLIBS from directory dependencies
The list of libraries in LDLIBS was generated from the DEPDIRS-xyz
variable. This is valid when the subdirectory name match the library
name, but it's not always the case, especially for PMDs.

The patches removes this feature and explicitly adds the proper
libraries in LDLIBS.

Some DEPDIRS-xyz variables become useless, remove them.

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.

a15b29ebe6 meter: fix excess token bucket update in srtcm
As per srTCM RFC 2697, we should be updating the E bucket only after the
C bucket overflows. This patch fixes the current DPDK implementation,
where we are updating both the buckets simultaneously at the same rate
(CIR) which results in token accumulation rate of (2*CIR).

8bc6573fb3 mk: fix missing libm dependencies
Commit e86a699cf6 missed two further libm dependencies: ceil() used
by librte_meter is typically inlined so the missing dependency does not
actually cause failures, and librte_pmd_nfp is not built by default
so its easy to miss.

This causes duplicates in LDLIBS in many configurations so its vital
they are removed before passing to linker.

Fixes: e86a699cf6 ("mk: fix shared library dependencies on libm and librt")

133b75923b mk: add library version extension
To differentiate libraries that break ABI, we add a library version number
suffix to the library, which must be incremented when a given libraries ABI is
broken.  This patch enforces that addition, sets the initial abi soname
extension to 1 for each library and creates a symlink to the base SONAME so that
the test applications will link properly.
