1263b426ff mempool: move stack handler as a driver
Moved from lib/librte_mempool, stack mempool handler is an independent
driver.
Shared builds would now require to link in librte_mempool_stack for
"stack" mempool handler.

feb9f680cd mk: optimize directory dependencies
Before this patch, the management of dependencies between directories
had several issues:

- the generation of .depdirs, done at configuration is slow: it can take
  more than one minute on some slow targets (usually ~10s on a standard
  PC without -j).

- for instance, it is possible to express a dependency like:
  - app/foo depends on lib/librte_foo
  - and lib/librte_foo depends on app/bar
  But this won't work because the directories are traversed with a
  depth-first algorithm, so we have to choose between doing 'app' before
  or after 'lib'.

- the script depdirs-rule.sh is too complex.

- we cannot use "make -d" for debug, because the output of make is used for
  the generation of .depdirs.

This patch moves the DEPDIRS-* variables in the upper Makefile, making
the dependencies much easier to calculate. A DEPDIRS variable is still
used to process library dependencies in LDLIBS.

After this commit, "make config" is almost immediate.

f8be1786b1 app/crypto-perf: introduce performance test application
This patchset introduce new application which allows measuring
performance parameters of PMDs available in crypto tree. The goal of
this application is to replace existing performance tests in app/test.
Parameters available are: throughput (--ptest throughput) and latency
(--ptest latency). User can use multiply cores to run tests on but only
one type of crypto PMD can be measured during single application
execution. Cipher parameters, type of device, type of operation and
chain mode have to be specified in the command line as application
parameters. These parameters are checked using device capabilities
structure.
Couple of new library functions in librte_cryptodev are introduced for
application use.
To build the application a CONFIG_RTE_APP_CRYPTO_PERF flag has to be set
(it is set by default).
Example of usage: -c 0xc0 --vdev crypto_aesni_mb_pmd -w 0000:00:00.0 --
--ptest throughput --devtype crypto_aesni_mb --optype cipher-then-auth
--cipher-algo aes-cbc --cipher-op encrypt --cipher-key-sz 16 --auth-algo
sha1-hmac --auth-op generate --auth-key-sz 64 --auth-digest-sz 12
--total-ops 10000000 --burst-sz 32 --buffer-sz 64

169ca3db55 crypto/armv8: add PMD optimized for ARMv8 processors
This patch introduces crypto poll mode driver
using ARMv8 cryptographic extensions.
CPU compatibility with this driver is detected in
run-time and virtual crypto device will not be
created if CPU doesn't provide:
AES, SHA1, SHA2 and NEON.

This PMD is optimized to provide performance boost
for chained crypto operations processing,
such as encryption + HMAC generation,
decryption + HMAC validation. In particular,
cipher only or hash only operations are
not provided.

The driver currently supports AES-128-CBC
in combination with: SHA256 HMAC and SHA1 HMAC
and relies on the external armv8_crypto library:
https://github.com/caviumnetworks/armv8_crypto

Build ARMv8 crypto PMD if compiling for ARM64
and CONFIG_RTE_LIBRTE_PMD_ARMV8_CRYPTO option
is enable in the configuration file.
ARMV8_CRYPTO_LIB_PATH environment variable will
point to the appropriate library directory.

This new sample app, based on the client/server sample app,
shows the user an scenario using the EFD library.
It consists of:

- A front-end server which has an EFD table that stores the
  node id for each flow key, which will distribute the incoming
  packets to the different nodes

- A back-end node, which has a hash table where node checks,
  after reading packets coming from the server, whether the packet
  is meant to be used in such node, in which case it will be TXed,
  or not, in which case, packet will be dropped.

56b6ef874f efd: new Elastic Flow Distributor library
Elastic Flow Distributor (EFD) is a distributor library that uses
perfect hashing to determine a target/value for a given incoming flow key.
It has the following advantages:

- First, because it uses perfect hashing, it does not store
  the key itself and hence lookup performance is not dependent
  on the key size.

- Second, the target/value can be any arbitrary value hence
  the system designer and/or operator can better optimize service rates
  and inter-cluster network traffic locating.

- Third, since the storage requirement is much smaller than a hash-based
  flow table (i.e. better fit for CPU cache), EFD can scale to
  millions of flow keys.
  Finally, with current optimized library implementation performance
  is fully scalable with number of CPU cores.

b1a4b4cbc0 ethdev: introduce generic flow API
This new API supersedes all the legacy filter types described in
rte_eth_ctrl.h. It is slightly higher level and as a result relies more on
PMDs to process and validate flow rules.

Benefits:

- A unified API is easier to program for, applications do not have to be
  written for a specific filter type which may or may not be supported by
  the underlying device.

- The behavior of a flow rule is the same regardless of the underlying
  device, applications do not need to be aware of hardware quirks.

- Extensible by design, API/ABI breakage should rarely occur if at all.

- Documentation is self-standing, no need to look up elsewhere.

Existing filter types will be deprecated and removed in the near future.

This script checks that header files in a given directory do not miss
dependencies when included on their own, do not conflict and accept being

It is too slow at the moment to be automatically executed by test-build.sh

c711ccb309 ivshmem: remove library and its EAL integration
Following discussions on the mailing list [1] and since nobody stood up to
implement the necessary cleanups, here is the ivshmem integration removal.

There is not much to say about this patch, a lot of code is being removed.
The default configuration file for packet_ordering example is replaced with
the "native" x86 file.
The only tricky part is in eal_memory with the memseg index stuff.

More cleanups can be done after this but will come in subsequent patchsets.

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.

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.

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.

The explanations must give some keys like the reason of the change.

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 \

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).

This commit adds support for the TILE-Gx platform, as well as the TILE
CPU architecture.  This architecture port is fairly simple due to its
reliance on generics for most arch stuff.

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).

9d3f9bbef7 maintainers: claim mbuf, mempool, ring, mk, kvargs, cmdline
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.
