9b83a7ed2a kni: fix crash on userspace VA for segmented packets
When IOVA=VA, address translation for segmented packets is wrong, it
assumes the address in the mbuf->next is physical address, not VA
address.

Fixing the address translation to work both PA & VA mode.

99a2dd955f lib: remove librte_ prefix from directory names
There is no reason for the DPDK libraries to all have 'librte_' prefix on
the directory names. This prefix makes the directory names longer and also
makes it awkward to add features referring to individual libraries in the
build - should the lib names be specified with or without the prefix.
Therefore, we can just remove the library prefix and use the library's
unique name as the directory name, i.e. 'eal' rather than 'librte_eal'

631217c761 kni: fix kernel deadlock with bifurcated device
KNI runs userspace callback with rtnl lock held, this is not working
fine with some devices that needs to interact with kernel interface in
the callback, like Mellanox devices.

The solution is releasing the rtnl lock before calling the userspace
callback. But it requires two consideration:

1. The rtnl lock needs to released before 'kni->sync_lock', otherwise it
   causes deadlock with multiple KNI devices, please check below the A.
   for the details of the deadlock condition.

2. When rtnl lock is released for interface down event, it cause a
   regression and deadlock, so can't release the rtnl lock for interface
   down event, please check below B. for the details.

As a solution, interface down event is handled asynchronously and for
all other events rtnl lock is released before processing the callback.

A. KNI sync lock is being locked while rtnl is held.
If two threads are calling kni_net_process_request() ,
then the first one will take the sync lock, release rtnl lock then sleep.
The second thread will try to lock sync lock while holding rtnl.
The first thread will wake, and try to lock rtnl, resulting in a
deadlock.  The remedy is to release rtnl before locking the KNI sync
lock.
Since in between nothing is accessing Linux network-wise, no rtnl
locking is needed.

B. There is a race condition in __dev_close_many() processing the
close_list while the application terminates.
It looks like if two KNI interfaces are terminating,
and one releases the rtnl lock, the other takes it,
updating the close_list in an unstable state,
causing the close_list to become a circular linked list,
hence list_for_each_entry() will endlessly loop inside
__dev_close_many() .

To summarize:
request != interface down : unlock rtnl, send request to user-space,
wait for response, send the response error code to caller in user-space.

request == interface down: send request to user-space, return immediately
with error code of 0 (success) to user-space.

3b4f41a10c build: support KNI cross-compilation
The KNI linux module is using a custom target for building, which
doesn't take into account any cross compilation arguments. The arguments
in question are ARCH, CROSS_COMPILE (for gcc, clang) and CC, LD (for
clang). Get those from the cross file and pass them to the custom
target.

The user supplied path may not contain the 'build' directory, such as
when using cross-compiled headers, so only append that in the default
case (when no path is supplied in native builds) and use the unmodified
path from the user otherwise. Also modify the install path accordingly.

3df9513374 contigmem: cleanup properly when load fails
If contigmem is not able to allocate all of the
requested buffers, it frees whatever buffers were
able to be allocated up until that point.

But the pointers are not set to NULL in that case.
After the load fails, the FreeBSD kernel will
immediately call the contigmem unload handler, which
tries to free the buffers again since the pointers
were not set to NULL.

It's not clear that we should just rely on the unload
handler getting called after load failure. So let's
keep the existing cleanup code in the load handler,
but explicitly set the pointers to NULL after freeing
them.

d965af9e8a kni: increase kernel version requirement for VA
A build error reported related to the selected 'get_user_pages_remote()'
kernel API:

.../kernel/linux/kni/kni_dev.h:113:8:
  error: too few arguments to function ‘get_user_pages_remote’
  ret = get_user_pages_remote(tsk, tsk->mm, iova, 1
        ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Currently there are three versions of the 'get_user_pages_remote()'
supported, based on kernel version < 4.9, = 4.9, > 4.9.

These version based checks are not working fine with the distro kernels
which is the cause of reported build error. The error reported by the
kernel version 4.8, but it is using API defined in > 4.9.

To be able to take control of this, and possible more, related build
error, increasing the minimum supported kernel version for iova=va with
KNI to kernel version 4.9.

This leaves us with single version of the kernel API and more manageable.

Clang is the system compiler for FreeBSD and kernel module builds can fail
when built with gcc, e.g. when testing with test-meson-builds.sh.
Therefore, it's safer to always use clang to build the kmods since the

9c1be11a4a kernel/linux: remove unneeded meson variables
The local variables for the error message aren't needed, since the messages
aren't used more than once, and the indent levels are now such that the
lines printing the message are not much longer than the lines defining the
variables to hold the messages themselves. Therefore the use of the
variables is pointless.

41dec89f54 kernel/linux: reduce unneeded indents in meson file
Since meson 0.46, meson has supported the subdir_done() function, which
allows us to abort processing of a file early. Using this we can reduce the
indentation in our files by eliminating unnecessary else blocks.

36681a5606 kernel/linux: remove unnecessary meson version check
The check for meson version 0.44 is redundant since the minimum
supported version for the project as a whole is 0.47.

ea6b39b5b8 kni: remove ethtool support
Current design requires kernel drivers and they need to be probed by
Linux up to some level so that they can be usable by DPDK for ethtool
support, this requires maintaining the Linux drivers in DPDK.

Also ethtool support is limited and hard, if not impossible, to expand
to other PMDs.

Since KNI ethtool support is not used commonly, if not used at all,
removing the support for the sake of simplicity and maintenance.

db9178c24c kni: fix build with Linux 5.1
Build error seen with Linux kernel 5.1 and
when CONFIG_RTE_KNI_KMOD_ETHTOOL is enabled.

Build error:
kernel/linux/kni/igb_main.c:2352:18:
  error: initialization of ... from incompatible pointer type ...
  [-Werror=incompatible-pointer-types]
    .ndo_fdb_add  = igb_ndo_fdb_add,
                      ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

ndo_fdb_add() is changed in Linux kernel version 5.1 and now requires
a new parameter, 'struct netlink_ext_ack *extack':
Linux Commit 87b0984ebfab ("net: Add extack argument to ndo_fdb_add()")

ndo_fdb_add() parameter updated with compile time Linux kernel version
check.
