Replace the arguments array by one argument.
All objects in the args array have the same values, so there is no need
to use an array, only one struct is enough.
The args object is a lot smaller, and the allocation can be replaced
with a global variable.
As a consequence of using a single argument, there is no need to use a
loop to launch the test on every core one by one. Replace it with
rte_eal_mp_remote_launch.
The allocation of obj_table isn't needed either, because MAX_BULK is
small. The allocation can instead be replaced with a static array.

When the BAR contains MSI-X table, pci_vfio_mmap_bar() tries to skip
the table and map the rest. "map around it" is the phrase used in the
source. The function splits the BAR into two regions: the region
before the table (first part or memreg[0]) and the region after the
table (second part or memreg[1]).
For hardware that has MSI-X vector table offset 0, the first part does
not exist (memreg[0].size == 0).
Capabilities: [60] MSI-X: Enable- Count=48 Masked-
Vector table: BAR=2 offset=00000000
PBA: BAR=2 offset=00001000
The mapping part of the function maps the first part, if it
exists. Then, it maps the second part, if it exists and "if mapping the
first part succeeded".
The recent change that replaces MAP_FAILED with NULL breaks the "if
mapping the first part succeeded" condition (1) in the snippet below.
void *map_addr = NULL;
if (memreg[0].size) {
/* actual map of first part */
map_addr = pci_map_resource(...);
}
/* if there's a second part, try to map it */
if (map_addr != NULL // -- (1)
&& memreg[1].offset && memreg[1].size) {
[...]
}
if (map_addr == NULL) {
RTE_LOG(ERR, EAL, "Failed to map pci BAR%d\n",
bar_index);
return -1;
}
When the first part does not exist, (1) sees map_addr is still NULL,
and the function fails. This behavior is a regression and fails
probing hardware with vector table offset 0.
Previously, (1) was "map_addr != MAP_FAILED", which meant
pci_map_resource() was actually attempted and failed. So, expand (1)
to check if the first part exists as well, to match the semantics of
MAP_FAILED.

When a VLAN pattern is present, the flow handler always copies its
inner_type to the match buffer regardless of its value (i.e. HW
matches inner_type against packet's inner ethertype). When inner_type
spec and mask are both 0, adding it to the match buffer is usually
harmless but breaks the following pattern used in some applications
like OVS-DPDK.
flow create 0 ingress ... pattern eth ... type is 0x0800 /
vlan tci spec 0x2 tci mask 0xefff / ipv4 / end actions count /
of_pop_vlan / ...
The VLAN pattern's inner_type is 0. And the outer eth pattern's type
actually specifies the inner ethertype. The outer ethertype (0x0800)
is first copied to the match buffer. Then, the driver copies
inner_type (0) to the match buffer, which overwrites the existing
0x0800 with 0 and breaks the app usage above.
Simply ignore inner_type when it is 0, which is the correct
behavior. As a byproduct, the driver can support the usage like the
above.

VF representor ports can create flows on VFs through the PF flowman

1. Make flow handler aware of VF representors
When a representor port invokes flow APIs, use the PF port's flowman
instance to perform flowman devcmd. If the port ID refers to a
representor, use VF handle instead of PF handle.
2. Serialize flow API calls
Multiple application thread may invoke flow APIs through PF and VF
representor ports simultaneously. This leads to races, as ports all
share the same PF flowman instance. Use a lock to serialize API
calls. Lock is used only when representors exist.
3. Add functions to create flows for implicit representor paths

functions below create flow rules to implement that path.
- enic_fm_add_rep2vf_flow()
- enic_fm_add_vf2rep_flow()

are not visible to application, and the flush API does not destroy
them. They are automatically deleted when the representor port stops

VF representors need to proxy devcmd through the PF vnic_dev

1. Add vnic_vf_rep_register()
A VF representor creates its own vnic_dev instance via this function
and saves VF ID. When performing devcmd, vnic_dev uses the saved VF ID
to proxy devcmd through the PF vnic_dev instance.
2. Add vnic_register_lock()
As PF and VF representors appear as independent ports to the
application, its threads may invoke APIs on them simultaneously,
leading to race conditions on the PF vnic_dev. For example, thread A
can query stats on PF port, while thread B queries stats on a VF
representor.
The PF port invokes this function to provide a lock to vnic_dev. This
lock is used to serialize devcmd calls from PF and VF representors.
3. Add utility functions to assist VF representor settings

The root cause is that hns3 PMD driver invokes the rte_pktmbuf_free_seg
API function to release the same rte_mbuf multiple times. The rte_mbuf
pointer is not set to NULL in the internal function
hns3_rx_queue_release_mbufs which is invoked during queue setup, stop
and close. As a result the rte_mbuf in Rx queues will be repeatedly
released when the user application setup queues or stop/start the dev
for multiple times.
Probably for performance reasons, DPDK mempool lib does not check for
the repeated rte_mbuf releases. The Address of released rte_mbuf are
directly stored into the per lcore cache of the mempool. This makes the
rte_mbufs obtained from mempool by calling rte_mempool_get_bulk API
function repetitively. ultimately, it causes to access to a NULL
pointer in PMD driver.
This patch fixes this problem by setting released mbuf pointer to NULL
in the internal function named hns3_rx_queue_release_mbuf. And the other
internal function named hns3_reassemble_tx_pkts is optimized to avoid a
similar problem.
