d223059e68 mk: fix build shared libraries
Only CPU_LDFLAGS is used in mk/rte.sharelib.mk.
It should be LDFLAGS to build the library with correct linkage options.

6d25d90c7d mk: fix linking with some linux toolchains
Ubuntu/Debian toolchain passes --as-needed flag to the linker by default.
Add --no-as-needed flag by default in linuxapp exec-env to ensure correct
linking.

The problem arises because librte_eal doesn't add a DT_NEEDED entry for
librte_mempool despite the fact that it references symbols in that library.
It does this because we don't explicitly link with -lrte_mempool when we
build librte_eal.

364e08f2bb af_packet: add PMD for AF_PACKET-based virtual devices
This is a Linux-specific virtual PMD driver backed by an AF_PACKET
socket.  This implementation uses mmap'ed ring buffers to limit copying
and user/kernel transitions.  The PACKET_FANOUT_HASH behavior of
AF_PACKET is used for frame reception.  In the current implementation,
Tx and Rx queues are always paired, and therefore are always equal
in number -- changing this would be a Simple Matter Of Programming.

Interfaces of this type are created with a command line option like
"--vdev=eth_af_packet0,iface=...".  There are a number of options available
as arguments:

 - Interface is chosen by "iface" (required)
 - Number of queue pairs set by "qpairs" (optional, default: 1)
 - AF_PACKET MMAP block size set by "blocksz" (optional, default: 4096)
 - AF_PACKET MMAP frame size set by "framesz" (optional, default: 2048)
 - AF_PACKET MMAP frame count set by "framecnt" (optional, default: 512)

b3688bee81 pipeline: new packet framework logic
The Packet Framework pipeline library provides a standard methodology
(logically similar to OpenFlow) for rapid development of complex packet
processing pipelines out of ports, tables and actions.

A pipeline is constructed by connecting its input ports to its output ports
through a chain of lookup tables. As result of lookup operation into the
current table, one of the table entries (or the default table entry, in case
of lookup miss) is identified to provide the actions to be executed on the
current packet and the associated action meta-data.

The behavior of user actions is defined through the configurable table action
handler, while the reserved actions define the next hop for the current packet
(either another table, an output port or packet drop) and are handled
transparently by the framework.

08ccf3faa6 distributor: new packet distributor library
This adds the code for a new Intel DPDK library for packet distribution.
The distributor is a component which is designed to pass packets
one-at-a-time to workers, with dynamic load balancing. Using the RSS
field in the mbuf as a tag, the distributor tracks what packet tag is
being processed by what worker and then ensures that no two packets with
the same tag are in-flight simultaneously. Once a tag is not in-flight,
then the next packet with that tag will be sent to the next available
core.

6820e8efef mk: allow updates to build config on make install
When running "make config", an additional config.orig file is also
generated, which is intended to hold the original, clean configuration
from the template.
When running make install, we first check if there is no existing
.config file, and run make config if not. If there is a file, we then
check if it's unmodified, in which case we regenerate a new .config to
take account of any possible updates to the template. Finally, in the
case where there is an existing .config file, and it HAS been modified,
we then do a check to see if the template has had further updates, and
throw an error if so. If no updates, we continue with the build using
the existing, user-modified config.

Some linker options were not prefixed by -Wl, when using CC:
	-z muldefs
	-melf_i386 (CPU_LDFLAGS in 32-bit config)

I didn't see any error with -z muldefs but it isn't documented in gcc
manual. So it's safer to explicitly pass it to the linker.
Also building 32-bit shared library raises this error:

2c62588a53 xenvirt: convert to use of PMD_REGISTER_DRIVER and fix linking
Convert the xenvirt driver to use the PMD_REGISTER_DRIVER macro.
This means that the test applications now have no reference to the xenvirt library
when building DSO's and must specify its use on the command line with the -d
option.  Static linking will still initalize the driver automatically.

A few notes:

xenvirt was unbuildable as of commit 4c39baf297d10c217e7d3e7370f26a1fede58308..
That commit neglected to include the rte_vdev.h header, so several structs were
left undefined.  This patch includes a fix for that as well.

Also, The linkage for xenvirt is broken in much the same way pmd_ring was, in
that the xenvirt pmd has a function that is called directly from applications
(the example being the testpmd application).  The function is
rte_mempool_gntalloc_create, and should clearly be moved into the rte_mempool
library, with the supporting code in the function implementation moved to a new
xenvirt library separate from the pmd.  This is a large undertaking that
detracts from the purpose of this series however, and so for now, I'm leaving
the linkage to the application in place, and will address this issue in a later
series

61934c0956 ring: convert to use of PMD_REGISTER_DRIVER and fix linking
Convert the ring driver to use the PMD_REGISTER_DRIVER macro and fix up the

This means that the test applications now have no reference to the ring library
when building DSO's and must specify its use on the command line with the -d

Note that the ring driver was also written in such a way that it violated some
general layering principles, several functions were contained in the pmd which
were being called by example from the test application in the app/test
directory.  Specifically it was calling eth_ring_pair_attach,
eth_ring_pair_create and rte_eth_ring_devinit, which should only be called
internally to the dpdk core library.  To correct this I've removed those
functions, and instead allowed them to be called indirectly at initalization
time using the vdev command line argument key nodeaction=<name>:<node>:<action>
where action is one of ATTACH or CREATE.  I've tested out the functionality of
the command line with the testpmd utility, with success, and have removed the
called functions from the test utility.  This will affect how the test utility
is invoked (the -d and --vdev option will need to be specified on the command
line now), but honestly, given the way it was coded, I think the testing of the
ring pmd was not the best example of how to code with dpdk to begin with.  I
have also left the two layer violating functions in place, so as not to break
existing applications, but added deprecation warnings to them so that apps can
migrate off them.

3660cdf990 pcap: convert to use of PMD_REGISTER_DRIVER and fix linking
Convert the pcap driver to use the PMD_REGISTER_DRIVER macro and fix up the
Makefile so that its linkage is only done if we are building static libraries.
This means that the test applications now have no reference to the pcap library
when building DSO's and must specify its use on the command line with the -d
option.  Static linking will still initalize the driver automatically.

36d9324ed0 mk: add "make examples" target in root makefile
It is now possible to build all projects from the examples/ directory
using one command from root directory.

Some illustration of what is possible:

- build examples in the DPDK tree for one target

  # install the x86_64-default-linuxapp-gcc in
  # ${RTE_SDK}/x86_64-default-linuxapp-gcc directory
  user@droids:~/dpdk.org$ make install T=x86_64-default-linuxapp-gcc
  # build examples for this new installation in
  # ${RTE_SDK}/examples directory
  user@droids:~/dpdk.org$ make examples T=x86_64-default-linuxapp-gcc

- build examples outside DPDK tree for several targets

  # install all targets matching x86_64-*-linuxapp-gcc in
  # ${RTE_SDK}/x86_64-*-linuxapp-gcc directories
  user@droids:~/dpdk.org$ make install T=x86_64-*-linuxapp-gcc
  # build examples for these installations in /tmp/foobar
  user@droids:~/dpdk.org$ make examples T=x86_64-*-linuxapp-gcc O=/tmp/foobar

8bdbf2a78f mk: add missing scripts directory in install directory
Trying to install headers for an external library using DPDK exported makefile
rte.extshared.mk results in following error :

$ cd dpdk
$ make install DESTDIR=/home/marchand/myapp/staging/plop T=x86_64-default-linuxapp-gcc
$ cd ~/myapp
$ make RTE_SDK=/home/marchand/myapp/staging/plop RTE_TARGET=x86_64-default-linuxapp-gcc
  CC plop.o
  LD plop.so
  SYMLINK-FILE include/plop.h
/bin/sh:
/home/marchand/myapp/staging/plop/scripts/relpath.sh: No such file or directory
ln: `/home/marchand/myapp/build/include' and `./include' are the same file
make[1]: *** [/home/marchand/myapp/build/include/plop.h] Error 1
make: *** [all] Error 2

This comes from the fact that DPDK only installs its mk/ directory while some
makefiles require the scripts/ directory content as well.

So install missing files from scripts/.

536ba2d8a8 version: 1.7.0-rc0
Start development cycle for version 1.7.0.

This new development workflow introduces a new versioning scheme.
Instead of having releases r0, r1, r2, etc, there will be release
candidates. Last number has special meanings:
< 16 numbers are reserved for release candidates (RTE_VER_SUFFIX is -rc)
16 is reserved for the release (RTE_VER_SUFFIX must be unset)
> 16 numbers can be used locally (RTE_VER_SUFFIX must be set)

221fb04df9 mk: fix build ignoring other installed versions
If some DPDK libraries are installed on the system, the linker was trying
to use them before searching in -L path.
The obscure reason is that we were prefixing -L with -Wl, to pass it
directly to the linker.
But -L is also a gcc option. And allowing gcc to process this option fixes
the issue.
