eec136f3c5 aesni_gcm: add driver for AES-GCM crypto operations
This patch provides the implementation of an AES-NI accelerated crypto PMD
which is dependent on Intel's multi-buffer library, see the white paper
"Fast Multi-buffer IPsec Implementations on Intel®  Architecture  Processors"

This PMD supports AES_GCM authenticated encryption and authenticated
decryption using 128-bit AES keys

The patch also contains the related unit tests functions

3aafc423cf snow3g: add driver for SNOW 3G library
Added new SW PMD which makes use of the libsso SW library,
which provides wireless algorithms SNOW 3G UEA2 and UIA2
in software.

This PMD supports cipher-only, hash-only and chained operations
("cipher then hash" and "hash then cipher") of the following
algorithms:
- RTE_CRYPTO_SYM_CIPHER_SNOW3G_UEA2
- RTE_CRYPTO_SYM_AUTH_SNOW3G_UIA2

The SNOW 3G hash and cipher algorithms, which are enabled
by this crypto PMD are implemented by Intel's libsso software
library. For library download and build instructions,
see the documentation included (doc/guides/cryptodevs/snow3g.rst)

The patch also contains the related unit tests function to test the PMD
supported operations.

ba560ac30c eal: move CPU flag functions out of headers
The patch c344eab3ee has moved the hardware definition of CPU flags.
Now the functions checking these hardware flags are also moved.
The function rte_cpu_get_flag_enabled() is no more inline.

The benefits are:
- remove rte_cpu_feature_table from the ABI (recently added)
- hide hardware details from the API
- allow to adapt structures per arch (done in next patch)

924e84f873 aesni_mb: add driver for multi buffer based crypto
This patch provides the initial implementation of the AES-NI multi-buffer
based crypto poll mode driver using DPDK's new cryptodev framework.

This PMD is dependent on Intel's multibuffer library, see the whitepaper
"Fast Multi-buffer IPsec Implementations on Intel® Architecture
Processors", see ref 1 for details on the library's design and ref 2 to
download the library itself. This initial implementation is limited to
supporting the chained operations of "hash then cipher" or "cipher then
hash" for the following cipher and hash algorithms:

Cipher algorithms:
  - RTE_CRYPTO_CIPHER_AES_CBC (with 128-bit, 192-bit and 256-bit keys supported)

Authentication algorithms:
  - RTE_CRYPTO_AUTH_SHA1_HMAC
  - RTE_CRYPTO_AUTH_SHA256_HMAC
  - RTE_CRYPTO_AUTH_SHA512_HMAC
  - RTE_CRYPTO_AUTH_AES_XCBC_MAC

Important Note:
Due to the fact that the multi-buffer library is designed for
accelerating IPsec crypto operation, the digest's generated for the HMAC
functions are truncated to lengths specified by IPsec RFC's, ie RFC2404
for using HMAC-SHA-1 with IPsec specifies that the digest is truncate
from 20 to 12 bytes.

Build instructions:
To build DPDK with the AESNI_MB_PMD the user is required to download
(ref 2) and compile the multi-buffer library on there system before
building DPDK. The environmental variable AESNI_MULTI_BUFFER_LIB_PATH
must be exported with the path where you extracted and built the multi
buffer library and finally set CONFIG_RTE_LIBRTE_PMD_AESNI_MB=y in
config/common_linuxapp.

Current status: It's doesn't support crypto operation
across chained mbufs, or cipher only or hash only operations.

1703e94ac5 qat: add driver for QuickAssist devices
This patch adds a PMD for the Intel Quick Assist Technology DH895xxC
hardware accelerator.

This patch depends on a QAT PF driver for device initialization. See
the file docs/guides/cryptodevs/qat.rst for configuration details

This patch supports a limited subset of QAT device functionality,
currently supporting chaining of cipher and hash operations for the
following algorithmsd:

Cipher algorithms:
  - RTE_CRYPTO_CIPHER_AES_CBC (with 128-bit, 192-bit and 256-bit keys supported)

Hash algorithms:
  - RTE_CRYPTO_AUTH_SHA1_HMAC
  - RTE_CRYPTO_AUTH_SHA256_HMAC
  - RTE_CRYPTO_AUTH_SHA512_HMAC
  - RTE_CRYPTO_AUTH_AES_XCBC_MAC

Some limitation on this patchset which shall be contributed in a
subsequent release:
 - Chained mbufs are not supported.
 - Hash only is not supported.
 - Cipher only is not supported.
 - Only in-place is currently supported (destination address is
   the same as source address).
 - Only supports session-oriented API implementation (session-less
   APIs are not supported).

Create a dummy malloc library to avoid breaking applications that have
librte_malloc in their DT_NEEDED entries.

This is the first step towards using malloc to allocate memory directly
from memsegs. Thus, memzones would allocate memory through malloc,
allowing to free memzones.

cec1b9f3af scripts: add ABI checking utility
There was a request for an abi validation utilty for the ongoing ABI stability
work.  As it turns out there is a abi compliance checker in development that
seems to be under active development and provides fairly detailed ABI compliance
reports.  Its not yet intellegent enough to understand symbol versioning, but it
does provide the ability to identify symbols which have changed between
releases, along with details of the change, and offers developers the
opportunity to identify which symbols then need versioning and validation for a
given update via manual testing.

This script automates the use of the compliance checker between two arbitrarily
specified tags within the dpdk tree.  To execute enter the $RTE_SDK directory
and run:

./scripts/validate_abi.sh $GIT_TAG1 $GIT_TAG2 $CONFIG

where $GIT_TAG1 and 2 are git tags and $CONFIG is a config specification
suitable for passing as the T= variable in the make config command.

Note the upstream source for the abi compliance checker is here:
http://ispras.linuxbase.org/index.php/ABI_compliance_checker

It generates a report for each DSO built from the requested tags that developers
can review to find ABI compliance issues.

c743e50c47 null: new poll mode driver
Null PMD is a driver of the virtual device particularly designed to measure
performance of DPDK PMDs. When an application call rx, Null PMD just allocates
mbufs and returns those. Also tx, the PMD just frees mbufs.

The PMD has following options.
- size: specify packe size allocated by RX. Default packet size is 64.
- copy: specify 1 or 0 to enable or disable copy while RX and TX.
	Default value is 0(disabled).
	This option is used for emulating more realistic data transfer.
	Copy size is equal to packet size.

To use the PMD, enable CONFIG_RTE_BUILD_SHARED_LIB in config file. Then
compile the PMD as shared library. The library can be linked using '-d'
option when an application invokes.

Here is an example.
$ sudo ./testpmd -c f -n 4 -d librte_pmd_null.so \
	--vdev 'eth_null0' --vdev 'eth_null1' -- -i --no-flush-rx

If testpmd is compiled with CONFIG_RTE_BUILD_SHARED_LIB, it may need to
specify more libraries using '-d' option.

cc7e8ae84f examples/bond: add example application for link bonding mode 6
This patch contains an example for link bonding mode 6.
It interact with user by a command prompt. Available commands are:
Start - starts ARP_thread which respond to ARP_requests and sends
ARP_updates (this
Is enabled by default after startup),
Stop  -stops ARP_thread,
Send count ip - send count ARP requests for IP,
Show - prints basic bond information, like IPv4 statistics from clients
Help,
Quit.
The best way to test mode 6 is to use this example together with
previous patch:
[PATCH 3/4] bond: add debug info for mode 6 link bonding.
Connect clients thru switch to bonding machine and send:
arping -c 1 bond_ip or
generate IPv4 traffic to bond_ip (IPv4 traffic from different clients
should be then balanced on slaves in round robin manner).

I'm volunteer to maintain the following components of dpdk:

- mbuf packet api
- mempool library
- ring library
- build system
- kvargs
- command line library

Note: I've split rte_mempool and rte_malloc as these two libraries
are different enough.

27c2ce5632 maintainers: start a Linux-style file
This MAINTAINERS file is inspired from the Linux one.

Almost all files are split into areas in order to identify maintainers of
each DPDK area. Note that a maintainer is not a git tree manager.
Candidates are welcome to send a patch to sign up for one or several areas.

There is a script to check coverage, especially when adding or moving files.
