CACHE_LINE_SIZE is a macro defined in machine/param.h in FreeBSD and
conflicts with DPDK macro version.
Adding RTE_ prefix to avoid conflicts.
CACHE_LINE_MASK and CACHE_LINE_ROUNDUP are also prefixed.

Provides a small sample application(guest_vm_power_mgr) to run on a VM.
The application is run by providing a core mask(-c) and number of memory
channels(-n). The core mask corresponds to the number of lcore channels to
attempt to open. A maximum of 64 channels per VM is allowed. The channels must
be monitored by the host.
After successful initialisation a CPU frequency command can be sent to the host
using:
set_cpu_freq <lcore_num> <up|down|min|max>.

For launching CLI thread and Monitor thread and initialising
resources.
Requires a minimum of two lcores to run, additional cores specified by eal core
mask are not used.

A wrapper around librte_power(using ACPI cpufreq), providing locking around the
non-threadsafe library, allowing for frequency changes based on core masks and
core numbers from both the CLI thread and epoll monitor thread.

The CLI is used for administrating the channel monitor and manager and
manually setting the CPU frequency on the host.
Supports the following commands:
add_vm [Mul-choice STRING]: add_vm|rm_vm <name>, add a VM for subsequent
operations with the CLI or remove a previously added VM from the VM Power
Manager
rm_vm [Mul-choice STRING]: add_vm|rm_vm <name>, add a VM for subsequent
operations with the CLI or remove a previously added VM from the VM Power
Manager
add_channels [Fixed STRING]: add_channels <vm_name> <list>|all, add
communication channels for the specified VM, the virtio channels must be
enabled in the VM configuration(qemu/libvirt) and the associated VM must be
active. <list> is a comma-separated list of channel numbers to add, using the
keyword 'all' will attempt to add all channels for the VM
set_channel_status [Fixed STRING]:
set_channel_status <vm_name> <list>|all enabled|disabled, enable or disable
the communication channels in list(comma-separated) for the specified VM,
alternatively list can be replaced with keyword 'all'. Disabled channels will
still receive packets on the host, however the commands they specify will be
ignored. Set status to 'enabled' to begin processing requests again.
show_vm [Fixed STRING]: show_vm <vm_name>, prints the information on the
specified VM(s), the information lists the number of vCPUS, the pinning to
pCPU(s) as a bit mask, along with any communication channels associated with
each VM
show_cpu_freq_mask [Fixed STRING]: show_cpu_freq_mask <mask>, Get the current
frequency for each core specified in the mask
set_cpu_freq_mask [Fixed STRING]: set_cpu_freq <core_mask> <up|down|min|max>,
Set the current frequency for the cores specified in <core_mask> by scaling
each up/down/min/max.
show_cpu_freq [Fixed STRING]: Get the current frequency for the specified core
set_cpu_freq [Fixed STRING]: set_cpu_freq <core_num> <up|down|min|max>,
Set the current frequency for the specified core by scaling up/down/min/max
quit [Fixed STRING]: close the application

The manager is responsible for adding communications channels to the Monitor
thread, tracking and reporting VM state and employs the libvirt API for
synchronization with the KVM Hypervisor. The manager interacts with the
Hypervisor to discover the mapping of virtual CPUS(vCPUs) to the host
physical CPUS(pCPUs) and to inspect the VM running state.
The manager provides the following functionality to the CLI:
1) Connect to a libvirtd instance, default: qemu:///system
2) Add a VM to an internal list, each VM is identified by a "name" which must
correspond a valid libvirt Domain Name.
3) Add communication channels associated with a VM to the epoll based Monitor
thread.
The channels must exist and be in the form of:
/tmp/powermonitor/<vm_name>.<channel_number>. Each channel is a
Virtio-Serial endpoint configured as an AF_UNIX file socket and opened in
non-blocking mode.
Each VM can have a maximum of 64 channels associated with it.
4) Disable or re-enable VM communication channels, channels once added to the
Monitor thread remain in that threads control, however acting on channel
requests can be disabled and renabled via CLI.
The monitor is an epoll based infinite loop running in a separate thread that
waits on channel events from VMs and calls the corresponding functions. Channel
definitions from the manager are registered via the epoll event opaque pointer
when calling epoll_ctl(EPOLL_CTL_ADD), this allows for obtaining the channels
file descriptor for reading EPOLLIN events and mapping the vCPU to pCPU(s)
associated with a request from a particular VM.
