The drivers directory contains some sub-directories
for each kind of device (or bus, mem):
net, crypto, event, raw
They are not suffixed with "dev" because it is obvious.
For consistency, the sub-directory drivers/bbdev/
is renamed to drivers/baseband/.

Skeleton rawdevice driver, on the lines of eventdev skeleton, is for
showcasing the rawdev library. This driver implements some of the
operations of the library based on which a test module can be
developed.
Design of skeleton involves a virtual device which is plugged into
VDEV bus on initialization.
Also, enable compilation of rawdev skeleton driver.

Each device in DPDK has a type associated with it - ethernet, crypto,
event etc. This patch introduces 'rawdevice' which is a generic
type of device, not currently handled out-of-the-box by DPDK.
A device which can be scanned on an installed bus (pci, fslmc, ...)
or instantiated through devargs, can be interfaced using
standardized APIs just like other standardized devices.
This library introduces an API set which can be plugged on the
northbound side to the application layer, and on the southbound side
to the driver layer.
The APIs of rawdev library exposes some generic operations which can
enable configuration and I/O with the raw devices. Using opaque
data (pointer) as API arguments, library allows a high flexibility
for application and driver implementation.
This patch introduces basic device operations like start, stop, reset,
queue and info support.
Subsequent patches would introduce other operations like buffer
enqueue/dequeue and firmware support.

With the introduction of bus drivers, we now have a situation where
driver libraries will start to depend upon each other. Because of this,
the driver libs need to be discoverable by the dynamic loader.
There are three options to fix this:
1. Force the user to put the $libdir/dpdk/drivers folder into their
library path.
2. Move all libraries from drivers sub-directory to $libdir.
3. Symlink all libraries from the subfolder to the main library dir.
Option 1 is not great for usability or distro packaging, and option 2
means that we can't have EAL load all drivers from a known path
automatically (as it would error out on non-PMD libs), so option 3 was
chosen as the best fix. The only downside is that on a "ninja uninstall"
the symlinks are not removed, as they are unknown to meson/ninja.

To build with meson and ninja, we need some initial infrastructure in
place. The build files for meson always need to be called "meson.build",
and options get placed in meson_options.txt
This commit adds a top-level meson.build file, which sets up the global
variables for tracking drivers, libraries, etc., and then includes other
build files, before finishing by writing the global build configuration
header file and a DPDK pkgconfig file at the end, using some of those same
globals.
From the top level build file, the only include file thus far is for the
config folder, which does some other setup of global configuration
parameters, including pulling in architecture specific parameters from an
architectural subdirectory. A number of configuration build options are
provided for the project to tune a number of global variables which will be
used later e.g. max numa nodes, max cores, etc. These settings all make
their way to the global build config header "rte_build_config.h". There is
also a file "rte_config.h", which includes "rte_build_config.h", and this
file is meant to hold other build-time values which are present in our
current static build configuration but are not normally meant for
user-configuration. Ideally, over time, the values placed here should be
moved to the individual libraries or drivers which want those values.

mechanism. This mechanism has the following characteristics:
• No multiple queue cost, therefore, latency is significant reduced.
• Fixed dependencies between queue/ports is more suitable for complex.
fixed pipelines of stateless packet processing (static pipeline).
• Has decentralized distribution (no scheduling core).
• Packets remain in order (no reorder core(s)).

The DPDK uses the Open Source BSD-3-Clause license for the core libraries
and drivers. The kernel components are naturally GPLv2 licensed.
Many of the files in the DPDK source code contain the full text of the
applicable license. For example, most of the BSD-3-Clause files contain a
full copy of the BSD-3-Clause license text.
Including big blocks of License headers in all files blows up the source
code with mostly redundant information. An additional problem is that even
the same licenses are referred to by a number of slightly varying text
blocks (full, abbreviated, different indentation, line wrapping and/or
white space, with obsolete address information, ...) which makes validation
and automatic processing a nightmare.
To make this easier, DPDK uses of a single line reference to
Unique License Identifiers in source files as defined by the Linux
Foundation's SPDX project https://spdk.org.
Adding license information in this fashion, rather than adding full license
text, can be more efficient for developers; decreases errors; and improves
automated detection of licenses. The current set of valid, predefined SPDX
identifiers is set forth on the SPDX License List at
https://spdx.org/licenses/.
For example, to label a file as subject to the BSD-3-Clause license,
the following text would be used as the top line of the file.
SPDX-License-Identifier: BSD-3-Clause
Note: Any new file contributions in DPDK shall adhere to the above scheme.
It is also recommended to replace or at least amend the existing license
text in the code with SPDX-License-Identifiers.
Any exception to DPDK IP policies shall be approved by DPDK tech board and
DPDK Governing Board. Steps for any exception approval:
1. Mention the appropriate license identifier form SPDX. If the license is
not listed in SPDX Licenses. It is the submitters responsibiliity to get
it first listed.
2. Get the required approval from the DPDK Technical Board. Technical board
may advise the author to check alternate means first. If no other
alternatives are found and the merit of the contributions are important
for DPDK's mission, it may decide on such exception with two-thirds vote
of the members.
3. Technical board then approach Governing board for such limited approval
for the given contribution only.
Any approvals shall be documented in "licenses/exceptions.txt" with record
dates.
Note: From the legal point of view, this patch is supposed to be only a
change to the textual representation of the license information, but in no
way any change to the actual license terms. With this patch applied, all
files will still be licensed under the same terms they were before.
