a5d7a3f77d unify tools naming
The following tools may be installed system-wide.
It may be cleaner and more convenient to find them with the same
dpdk- prefix (especially for autocompletion).
Moreover, the script dpdk_nic_bind.py deserves a new name because it is
not restricted to NICs and can be used for e.g. crypto.

These files are renamed:
pmdinfogen       -> dpdk-pmdinfogen
pmdinfo.py       -> dpdk-pmdinfo.py
dpdk_pdump       -> dpdk-pdump
dpdk_proc_info   -> dpdk-procinfo
dpdk_nic_bind.py -> dpdk-devbind.py
setup.sh         -> dpdk-setup.sh

The tools pmdinfogen, pmdinfo.py and dpdk_pdump are new in 16.07.

The scripts dpdk_nic_bind.py and setup.sh may have been used with
previous releases by end users. That's why a symbolic link still
provide the old name in the installed tools directory.

caa7028276 app/pdump: add tool for packet capturing
The new pdump tool is added for packet capturing on dpdk.
This tool runs as secondary process by default.
Tool facilitates the command line options like
port, device_id, queue which user should pass on
to the tool to request the packet capture on those devices.

Tool creates the rte ring, mempool and pcap vdev and
calls the enable API of the pdump library with port/device_id,
queue, ring and mempool as arguments to enable the packet
capture on specific devices and gets the packets from the
primary process over the ring. Once the packets are
received, those packets will be send to the pcap vdev.

Tool can be terminated by using ctrl+c(SIGINT) upon which tool
calls the disable API of the pdump library to disable the packet capture
and dequeues the rest of the packets from the ring and sends them on
to the pcap vdev, then after releases all allocated resources.

278f945402 pdump: add new library for packet capture
The librte_pdump library provides a framework for
packet capturing in dpdk. The library provides set of
APIs to initialize the packet capture framework, to
enable or disable the packet capture, and to uninitialize
it.

The librte_pdump library works on a client/server model.
The server is responsible for enabling or disabling the
packet capture and the clients are responsible
for requesting the enabling or disabling of the packet
capture.

Enabling APIs are supported with port, queue, ring and
mempool parameters. Applications should pass on this information
to get the packets from the dpdk ports.

For enabling requests from applications, library creates the client
request containing the mempool, ring, port and queue information and
sends the request to the server. After receiving the request, server
registers the Rx and Tx callbacks for all the port and queues.
After the callbacks registration, registered callbacks will get the
Rx and Tx packets. Packets then will be copied to the new mbufs that
are allocated from the user passed mempool. These new mbufs then will
be enqueued to the application passed ring. Applications need to dequeue
the mbufs from the rings and direct them to the devices like
pcap vdev for viewing the packets outside of the dpdk
using the packet capture tools.

For disabling requests, library creates the client request containing
the port and queue information and sends the request to the server.
After receiving the request, server removes the Rx and Tx callback
for all the port and queues.

53c3c30c11 pci: allow to override sysfs path
The SYSFS_PCI_DEVICES is a constant that makes the PCI testing
difficult as it points to an absolute path. We remove using this
constant and introducing a function pci_get_sysfs_path that gives
the same value. However, the user can pass a SYSFS_PCI_DEVICES env
variable to override the path. It is now possible to create a fake
sysfs hierarchy for testing.

fe6923cbfd app/test: introduce resources for tests
Certain internal mechanisms of DPDK access different file system
structures (e.g. /sys/bus/pci/devices). It is difficult to test
those cases automatically by a unit test when such path is not
hard-coded and there is no simple way how to distribute fake ones
with the current testing environment.

This patch adds a possibility to declare a resource embedded in
the test binary itself. The structure resource cover the generic
situation - it provides a name for lookup and pointers to the
embedded data blob. A resource is registered in a constructor by
the macro REGISTER_RESOURCE.

Some initial tests of simple resources is included and added into
the group_1.

initialises the HW.

 - eth_dev_ops callbacks
 - Rx/Tx support for the driver
 - link default configuration
 - change link property
 - link up/down/update notifications
 - vlan offload and filtering capability
 - device/function/port statistics

ec94dbc573 qede: add base driver
The base driver is the backend module for the QLogic FastLinQ QL4xxxx
25G/40G CNA family of adapters as well as their virtual functions (VF)
in SR-IOV context.

The purpose of the base module is to:
 - provide all the common code that will be shared between the various
   drivers that would be used with said line of products. Flows such as
   chip initialization and de-initialization fall under this category.
 - abstract the protocol-specific HW & FW components, allowing the
   protocol drivers to have clean APIs, which are detached in its
   slowpath configuration from the actual Hardware Software Interface(HSI).

This patch adds a base module without any protocol-specific bits.
I.e., this adds a basic implementation that almost entirely falls under
the first category.

edbeb7d962 scripts: check commit formatting
The git messages have three parts:
1/ the headline
2/ the explanations
3/ the footer tags

The headline helps to quickly browse an history or catch instantly the
purpose of a commit. Making it short with some consistent wording
allows to easily parse it or match some patterns.

The explanations must give some keys like the reason of the change.
Nothing can be automatically checked for this part, except line length.

The footer contains some tags to find the origin of a bug or who
was working on it.

This script is doing some basic checks mostly on parts 1 and 3.

ee584e9710 vhost: add driver on top of the library
The patch introduces a new PMD. This PMD is implemented as thin wrapper
of librte_vhost. It means librte_vhost is also needed to compile the PMD.
The vhost messages will be handled only when a port is started. So start
a port first, then invoke QEMU.

The PMD has 2 parameters.
 - iface:  The parameter is used to specify a path to connect to a
           virtio-net device.
 - queues: The parameter is used to specify the number of the queues
           virtio-net device has.
           (Default: 1)

Here is an example.
$ ./testpmd -c f -n 4 --vdev 'eth_vhost0,iface=/tmp/sock0,queues=1' -- -i

To connect above testpmd, here is qemu command example.

$ qemu-system-x86_64 \
        <snip>
        -chardev socket,id=chr0,path=/tmp/sock0 \
        -netdev vhost-user,id=net0,chardev=chr0,vhostforce,queues=1 \

c6dcefe420 doc: add readme file
This project is missing a proper README which is used in
other projects and some git visualization services.
Only a starting point, please feel free to edit.
To keep the file short and current, I avoided putting any specific
information about features and versions.

d0228ccbe2 mbuf_offload: mark experimental state
Cryptodev was marked experimental and mbuf_offload depends on it.
The mbuf_offload library is one of the crypto area which requires
some discussions before having a stable API.

The experimental mark is also added to rte_cryptodev_configure()
to be sure one cannot miss it.

Fixes: 66874e55f5 ("cryptodev: mark experimental state")
