While debugging startup issues encountered with Clang (see "eal: fix
undefined behavior in fbarray"), I noticed that fbarray stores indices,
sizes and masks on signed integers involved in bitwise operations.
Such operations almost invariably cause undefined behavior with values that
cannot be represented by the result type, as is often the case with
bit-masks and left-shifts.
This patch replaces them with unsigned integers as a safety measure and
promotes a few internal variables to larger types for consistency.

This patch aims to add a general device event monitor framework at
EAL device layer, for device hotplug awareness and actions adopted
accordingly. It could also expand for all other types of device event
monitor, but not in this scope at the stage.
To get started, users firstly call below new added APIs to enable/disable
the device event monitor mechanism:
- rte_dev_event_monitor_start
- rte_dev_event_monitor_stop
Then users shell register or unregister callbacks through the new added
APIs. Callbacks can be some device specific, or for all devices.
-rte_dev_event_callback_register
-rte_dev_event_callback_unregister
Use hotplug case for example, when device hotplug insertion or hotplug
removal, we will get notified from kernel, then call user's callbacks
accordingly to handle it, such as detach or attach the device from the
bus, and could benefit further fail-safe or live-migration.

Each process will have its own callbacks. Callbacks will indicate
whether it's allocation and deallocation that's happened, and will
also provide start VA address and length of allocated block.
Since memory hotplug isn't supported on FreeBSD and in legacy mem
mode, it will not be possible to register them in either.
Callbacks are called whenever something happens to the memory map of
current process, therefore at those times memory hotplug subsystem
is write-locked, which leads to deadlocks on attempt to use these
functions. Document the limitation.

This enables multiprocess synchronization for memory hotplug
requests at runtime (as opposed to initialization).
Basic workflow is the following. Primary process always does initial
mapping and unmapping, and secondary processes always follow primary
page map. Only one allocation request can be active at any one time.
When primary allocates memory, it ensures that all other processes
have allocated the same set of hugepages successfully, otherwise
any allocations made are being rolled back, and heap is freed back.
Heap is locked throughout the process, and there is also a global
memory hotplug lock, so no race conditions can happen.
When primary frees memory, it frees the heap, deallocates affected
pages, and notifies other processes of deallocations. Since heap is
freed from that memory chunk, the area basically becomes invisible
to other processes even if they happen to fail to unmap that
specific set of pages, so it's completely safe to ignore results of
sync requests.
When secondary allocates memory, it does not do so by itself.
Instead, it sends a request to primary process to try and allocate
pages of specified size and on specified socket, such that a
specified heap allocation request could complete. Primary process
then sends all secondaries (including the requestor) a separate
notification of allocated pages, and expects all secondary
processes to report success before considering pages as "allocated".
Only after primary process ensures that all memory has been
successfully allocated in all secondary process, it will respond
positively to the initial request, and let secondary proceed with
the allocation. Since the heap now has memory that can satisfy
allocation request, and it was locked all this time (so no other
allocations could take place), secondary process will be able to
allocate memory from the heap.
When secondary frees memory, it hides pages to be deallocated from
the heap. Then, it sends a deallocation request to primary process,
so that it deallocates pages itself, and then sends a separate sync
request to all other processes (including the requestor) to unmap
the same pages. This way, even if secondary fails to notify other
processes of this deallocation, that memory will become invisible
to other processes, and will not be allocated from again.
So, to summarize: address space will only become part of the heap
if primary process can ensure that all other processes have
allocated this memory successfully. If anything goes wrong, the
worst thing that could happen is that a page will "leak" and will
not be available to neither DPDK nor the system, as some process
will still hold onto it. It's not an actual leak, as we can account
for the page - it's just that none of the processes will be able
to use this page for anything useful, until it gets allocated from
by the primary.
Due to underlying DPDK IPC implementation being single-threaded,
some asynchronous magic had to be done, as we need to complete
several requests before we can definitively allow secondary process
to use allocated memory (namely, it has to be present in all other
secondary processes before it can be used). Additionally, only
one allocation request is allowed to be submitted at once.
Memory allocation requests are only allowed when there are no
secondary processes currently initializing. To enforce that,
a shared rwlock is used, that is set to read lock on init (so that
several secondaries could initialize concurrently), and write lock
on making allocation requests (so that either secondary init will
have to wait, or allocation request will have to wait until all
processes have initialized).
Any other function that wishes to iterate over memory or prevent
allocations should be using memory hotplug lock.

In preparation for implementing multiprocess support, we are adding
a version number to memseg lists. We will not need any locks, because
memory hotplug will have a global lock (so any time memory map and
thus version number might change, we will already be holding a lock).
There are two ways of implementing multiprocess support for memory
hotplug: either all information about mapped memory is shared
between processes, and secondary processes simply attempt to
map/unmap memory based on requests from the primary, or secondary
processes store their own maps and only check if they are in sync
with the primary process' maps.
This implementation will opt for the latter option: primary process
shared mappings will be authoritative, and each secondary process
will use its own interal view of mapped memory, and will attempt
to synchronize on these mappings using versioning.
Under this model, only primary process will decide which pages get
mapped, and secondary processes will only copy primary's page
maps and get notified of the changes via IPC mechanism (coming
in later commits).

Since we have to allocate an fbarray for memzones, we have to do

Before, we were aggregating multiple pages into one memseg, so the
number of memsegs was small. Now, each page gets its own memseg,
so the list of memsegs is huge. To accommodate the new memseg list
size and to keep the under-the-hood workings sane, the memseg list
is now not just a single list, but multiple lists. To be precise,
each hugepage size available on the system gets one or more memseg
lists, per socket.
In order to support dynamic memory allocation, we reserve all
memory in advance (unless we're in 32-bit legacy mode, in which
case we do not preallocate memory). As in, we do an anonymous
mmap() of the entire maximum size of memory per hugepage size, per
socket (which is limited to either RTE_MAX_MEMSEG_PER_TYPE pages or
RTE_MAX_MEM_MB_PER_TYPE megabytes worth of memory, whichever is the
smaller one), split over multiple lists (which are limited to
either RTE_MAX_MEMSEG_PER_LIST memsegs or RTE_MAX_MEM_MB_PER_LIST
megabytes per list, whichever is the smaller one). There is also
a global limit of CONFIG_RTE_MAX_MEM_MB megabytes, which is mainly
used for 32-bit targets to limit amounts of preallocated memory,
but can be used to place an upper limit on total amount of VA
memory that can be allocated by DPDK application.
So, for each hugepage size, we get (by default) up to 128G worth
of memory, per socket, split into chunks of up to 32G in size.
The address space is claimed at the start, in eal_common_memory.c.
The actual page allocation code is in eal_memalloc.c (Linux-only),
and largely consists of copied EAL memory init code.
Pages in the list are also indexed by address. That is, in order
to figure out where the page belongs, one can simply look at base
address for a memseg list. Similarly, figuring out IOVA address
of a memzone is a matter of finding the right memseg list, getting
offset and dividing by page size to get the appropriate memseg.
This commit also removes rte_eal_dump_physmem_layout() call,
according to deprecation notice [1], and removes that deprecation
notice as well.
On 32-bit targets due to limited VA space, DPDK will no longer
spread memory to different sockets like before. Instead, it will
(by default) allocate all of the memory on socket where master
lcore is. To override this behavior, --socket-mem must be used.
The rest of the changes are really ripple effects from the memseg
change - heap changes, compile fixes, and rewrites to support
fbarray-backed memseg lists. Due to earlier switch to _walk()
functions, most of the changes are simple fixes, however some
of the _walk() calls were switched to memseg list walk, where
it made sense to do so.
Additionally, we are also switching locks from flock() to fcntl().
Down the line, we will be introducing single-file segments option,
and we cannot use flock() locks to lock parts of the file. Therefore,
we will use fcntl() locks for legacy mem as well, in case someone is
unfortunate enough to accidentally start legacy mem primary process
alongside an already working non-legacy mem-based primary process.

rte_fbarray is a simple indexed array stored in shared memory
via mapping files into memory. Rationale for its existence is the
following: since we are going to map memory page-by-page, there
could be quite a lot of memory segments to keep track of (for
smaller page sizes, page count can easily reach thousands). We
can't really make page lists truly dynamic and infinitely expandable,
because that involves reallocating memory (which is a big no-no in
multiprocess). What we can do instead is have a maximum capacity as
something really, really large, and decide at allocation time how
big the array is going to be. We map the entire file into memory,
which makes it possible to use fbarray as shared memory, provided
the structure itself is allocated in shared memory. Per-fbarray
locking is also used to avoid index data races (but not contents
data races - that is up to user application to synchronize).
In addition, in understanding that we will frequently need to scan
this array for free space and iterating over array linearly can
become slow, rte_fbarray provides facilities to index array's
usage. The following use cases are covered:
- find next free/used slot (useful either for adding new elements
to fbarray, or walking the list)
- find starting index for next N free/used slots (useful for when
we want to allocate chunk of VA-contiguous memory composed of
several pages)
- find how many contiguous free/used slots there are, starting
from specified index (useful for when we want to figure out
how many pages we have until next hole in allocated memory, to
speed up some bulk operations where we would otherwise have to
walk the array and add pages one by one)
This is accomplished by storing a usage mask in-memory, right
after the data section of the array, and using some bit-level
magic to figure out the info we need.

The strncpy function is error prone for doing "safe" string copies, so

"strlcpy" is a better alternative, since it better conveys the
intention of the programmer, and doesn't suffer from the non-null
terminating behaviour of it's n'ed brethern.
The downside of this function is that it is not available by default
on linux, though standard in the BSD's. It is available on most
distros by installing "libbsd" package.
This patch therefore provides the following in rte_string_fns.h to ensure
that strlcpy is available there:
* for BSD, include string.h as normal
* if RTE_USE_LIBBSD is set, include <bsd/string.h>
* if not set, fallback to snprintf for strlcpy
Using make build system, the RTE_USE_LIBBSD is a hard-coded value to "n",
but when using meson, it's automatically set based on what is available
on the platform.

Dynamic log types are registered on RTE_INIT() step.
This allows one to set log levels by EAL options on

EAL does not store log levels and types passed from

This is an obvious flaw since it would be better to
