In a container environment if the vhost-user backend restarts, there's
no way for it to reconnect to virtio-user. To address this, support for
server mode is added. In this mode the socket file is created by virtio-
user, which the backend then connects to. This means that if the backend
restarts, it can reconnect to virtio-user and continue communications.
With current implementation, LSC is enabled at virtio-user side to
support to accept the coming connection.
Server mode virtio-user only supports to work with vhost-user.
Release note is updated in this patch.

Use testpmd for example, to show how an application uses device event
APIs to monitor the hotplug events, including both hot removal event
and hot insertion event.
The process is that, testpmd first enable hotplug by below commands,
E.g. ./build/app/testpmd -c 0x3 --n 4 -- -i --hot-plug
then testpmd starts the device event monitor by calling the new API
(rte_dev_event_monitor_start) and register the user's callback by call
the API (rte_dev_event_callback_register), when device being hotplug
insertion or hotplug removal, the device event monitor detects the event
and call user's callbacks, user could process the event in the callback
accordingly.
This patch only shows the event monitoring, device attach/detach would
not be involved here, will add from other hotplug patch set.

This patch aims to add a general device event monitor framework at
EAL device layer, for device hotplug awareness and actions adopted
accordingly. It could also expand for all other types of device event
monitor, but not in this scope at the stage.
To get started, users firstly call below new added APIs to enable/disable
the device event monitor mechanism:
- rte_dev_event_monitor_start
- rte_dev_event_monitor_stop
Then users shell register or unregister callbacks through the new added
APIs. Callbacks can be some device specific, or for all devices.
-rte_dev_event_callback_register
-rte_dev_event_callback_unregister
Use hotplug case for example, when device hotplug insertion or hotplug
removal, we will get notified from kernel, then call user's callbacks
accordingly to handle it, such as detach or attach the device from the
bus, and could benefit further fail-safe or live-migration.

Before, we were aggregating multiple pages into one memseg, so the
number of memsegs was small. Now, each page gets its own memseg,
so the list of memsegs is huge. To accommodate the new memseg list
size and to keep the under-the-hood workings sane, the memseg list
is now not just a single list, but multiple lists. To be precise,
each hugepage size available on the system gets one or more memseg
lists, per socket.
In order to support dynamic memory allocation, we reserve all
memory in advance (unless we're in 32-bit legacy mode, in which
case we do not preallocate memory). As in, we do an anonymous
mmap() of the entire maximum size of memory per hugepage size, per
socket (which is limited to either RTE_MAX_MEMSEG_PER_TYPE pages or
RTE_MAX_MEM_MB_PER_TYPE megabytes worth of memory, whichever is the
smaller one), split over multiple lists (which are limited to
either RTE_MAX_MEMSEG_PER_LIST memsegs or RTE_MAX_MEM_MB_PER_LIST
megabytes per list, whichever is the smaller one). There is also
a global limit of CONFIG_RTE_MAX_MEM_MB megabytes, which is mainly
used for 32-bit targets to limit amounts of preallocated memory,
but can be used to place an upper limit on total amount of VA
memory that can be allocated by DPDK application.
So, for each hugepage size, we get (by default) up to 128G worth
of memory, per socket, split into chunks of up to 32G in size.
The address space is claimed at the start, in eal_common_memory.c.
The actual page allocation code is in eal_memalloc.c (Linux-only),
and largely consists of copied EAL memory init code.
Pages in the list are also indexed by address. That is, in order
to figure out where the page belongs, one can simply look at base
address for a memseg list. Similarly, figuring out IOVA address
of a memzone is a matter of finding the right memseg list, getting
offset and dividing by page size to get the appropriate memseg.
This commit also removes rte_eal_dump_physmem_layout() call,
according to deprecation notice [1], and removes that deprecation
notice as well.
On 32-bit targets due to limited VA space, DPDK will no longer
spread memory to different sockets like before. Instead, it will
(by default) allocate all of the memory on socket where master
lcore is. To override this behavior, --socket-mem must be used.
The rest of the changes are really ripple effects from the memseg
change - heap changes, compile fixes, and rewrites to support
fbarray-backed memseg lists. Due to earlier switch to _walk()
functions, most of the changes are simple fixes, however some
of the _walk() calls were switched to memseg list walk, where
it made sense to do so.
Additionally, we are also switching locks from flock() to fcntl().
Down the line, we will be introducing single-file segments option,
and we cannot use flock() locks to lock parts of the file. Therefore,
we will use fcntl() locks for legacy mem as well, in case someone is
unfortunate enough to accidentally start legacy mem primary process
alongside an already working non-legacy mem-based primary process.

This API provides a common set of actions for pipeline input ports to speed
up application development.
Each pipeline input port can be assigned an action handler to be executed
on every input packet during the pipeline execution.
The pipeline library allows the user to define his own input port actions
by providing customized input port action handler. While the user can
still follow this process, this API is intended to provide a quicker
development alternative for a set of predefined actions.
The typical steps to use this API are:
* Define an input port action profile.
* Instantiate the input port action profile to create input port action
objects.
* Use the input port action to generate the input port action handler
invoked by the pipeline.
* Use the input port action object to generate the internal data structures
used by the input port action handler based on given action parameters.

This API provides a common set of actions for pipeline tables to speed up
application development.
Each match-action rule added to a pipeline table has associated data
that stores the action context. This data is input to the table
action handler called for every input packet that hits the rule as
part of the table lookup during the pipeline execution.
The pipeline library allows the user to define his own table
actions by providing customized table action handlers (table
lookup) and complete freedom of setting the rules and their data
(table rule add/delete). While the user can still follow this
process, this API is intended to provide a quicker development
alternative for a set of predefined actions.
The typical steps to use this API are:
* Define a table action profile.
* Instantiate the table action profile to create table action objects.
* Use the table action object to generate the pipeline table action
handlers (invoked by the pipeline table lookup operation).
* Use the table action object to generate the rule data (for the
pipeline table rule add operation) based on given action parameters.
* Use the table action object to read action data (e.g. stats counters)
for any given rule.
