The cache-misses problem is very serious when the function
lpm_cb_parse_ptype is called to read the content of packets. That is
because the contents of packages previously stored in the cache are
overwritten by the following instructions or variables.
Thus the prefetch order can be used to prefetch the next packet into
the cache to avoid CPU spending too much time on it.
On Octeon TX platform with built-in NIC, 12% performance gain was
measured by running RFC2544 NDR test with l3fwd. Furthermore, the
cache-misses event of the function lpm_cb_parse_ptype was reduced by
20%, and the CPU task-clock of it dropped from 16.49% to 11.3%, based
on the forwarding test for one minute with the 64B packet.
On the dpaa2 platform, no performance improvement nor drop were seen
with this patch by running RFC2544 NDR test with l3fwd.
On the x86 platform, 15.7% performance gain was measured by running
RFC2544 NDR test with l3fwd.

As a example to use ptype info, l3fwd needs firstly to use
rte_eth_dev_get_supported_ptypes() API to check if device and/or
its PMD driver will parse and fill the needed packet type; if not,
use the newly added option, --parse-ptype, to analyze it in the
callback softly.
As the mode of EXACT_MATCH uses the 5 tuples to caculate hash, so
we narrow down its scope to:
a. ip packets with no extensions, and
b. L4 payload should be either tcp or udp.
Note: this patch does not completely solve the issue, "cannot run
l3fwd on virtio or other devices", because hw_ip_checksum may be
not supported by the devices. Currently we can:
a. remove this requirements, or
b. wait for virtio front end (pmd) to support it.

Current implementation of Exact-Match uses different execution path than
for LPM. Unifying them allows to reuse big part of LPM code and sightly
increase performance of Exact-Match.
Main changes:
-------------
* Packet classification stage is separated from the rest of path for both
LPM and EM.
* Packet processing, modifying and transmit part is the same for LPM and EM
and mostly based on the current LPM implementation.
* Shared code is moved to the common file "l3fwd_sse.h".
* While sequential packet classification in EM path, seems to be faster
than using multi hash lookup, used before, it is used by default. Old
implementation is moved to the file l3fwd_em_hlm_sse.h and can be enabled
with HASH_LOOKUP_MULTI global define in compilation time.

The main problem with l3fwd is that it is too monolithic with everything
being in one file, and the various options all controlled by compile time
flags. This means that it's hard to read and understand, and when making
any changes, you need to go to a lot of work to try and ensure you cover
all the code paths, since a compile of the app will not touch large parts
of the l3fwd codebase.
Following changes were done to fix the issues mentioned above
- Split out the various lpm and hash specific functionality into separate
files, so that l3fwd code has one file for common code e.g. args
processing, mempool creation, and then individual files for the various
forwarding approaches.
Following are new file lists
main.c (Common code for args processing, memppol creation, etc)
l3fwd_em.c (Hash/Exact match aka 'EM' functionality)
l3fwd_em_sse.h (SSE4_1 buffer optimizated 'EM' code)
l3fwd_lpm.c (Longest Prefix Match aka 'LPM' functionality)
l3fwd_lpm_sse.h (SSE4_1 buffer optimizated 'LPM' code)
l3fwd.h (Common include for 'EM' and 'LPM')
- The choosing of the lpm/hash path should be done at runtime, not
compile time, via a command-line argument. This will ensure that
both code paths get compiled in a single go
Following examples show runtime options provided
Select 'LPM' or 'EM' based on run time selection f.e.
> l3fwd -c 0x1 -n 1 -- -p 0x1 -E ... (EM)
> l3fwd -c 0x1 -n 1 -- -p 0x1 -L ... (LPM)
Options "E" and "L" are mutualy-exclusive.
If none selected, "L" is default.
