Use testpmd for example, to show how an application uses device event
APIs to monitor the hotplug events, including both hot removal event
and hot insertion event.
The process is that, testpmd first enable hotplug by below commands,
E.g. ./build/app/testpmd -c 0x3 --n 4 -- -i --hot-plug
then testpmd starts the device event monitor by calling the new API
(rte_dev_event_monitor_start) and register the user's callback by call
the API (rte_dev_event_callback_register), when device being hotplug
insertion or hotplug removal, the device event monitor detects the event
and call user's callbacks, user could process the event in the callback
accordingly.
This patch only shows the event monitoring, device attach/detach would
not be involved here, will add from other hotplug patch set.

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.

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.

This API provides a common set of actions for pipeline input ports to speed

The pipeline library allows the user to define his own input port actions
by providing customized input port action handler. While the user can

The typical steps to use this API are:
* Define an input port action profile.
* Instantiate the input port action profile to create input port action

* Use the input port action to generate the input port action handler

This API provides a common set of actions for pipeline tables to speed up

Enable rx queue interrupts if the app requests them, and vNIC has
enough interrupt resources. Use interrupt vector 0 for link status and
errors. Use vector 1 for rx queue 0, vector 2 for rx queue 1, and so
on. So, with n rx queues, vNIC needs to have at n + 1 interrupts.
For VIC, enabling and disabling rx queue interrupts are simply
mask/unmask operations. VIC's credit based interrupt moderation is not
used, as the app wants to explicitly control when to enable/disable
interrupts.
This version requires MSI-X (vfio-pci). Sharing one interrupt for link
status and rx queues is possible, but is rather complex and has no

Currently, enic completely ignores the requested max Rx packet size
(rxmode.max_rx_pkt_len). The desired behavior is that the NIC hardware
drops packets larger than the requested size, even though they are
still smaller than MTU.
Cisco VIC does not have such a feature. But, we can accomplish a
similar (not same) effect by reducing the size of posted receive
buffers. Packets larger than the posted size get truncated, and the
receive handler drops them. This is also how the kernel enic driver
enforces the Rx side MTU.
This workaround works only when scatter mode is *not* used. When
scatter is used, there is currently no way to support
rxmode.max_rx_pkt_len, as the NIC always receives packets up to MTU.
For posterity, add a copious amount of comments regarding the
hardware's drop/receive behavior with respect to max/current MTU.

Currently, when more than 1 receive queues are configured, the driver
always enables RSS with the driver's own default hash type, key, and

this by implementing the ethdev RSS API as follows.
Correctly report the RETA size, key size, and supported hash types
through rte_eth_dev_info.
During dev_configure(), initialize RSS according to the device's
mq_mode and rss_conf. Start with the default RETA, and use the default
key unless a custom key is provided.
Add the RETA and rss_conf query/set handlers to let the user change
RSS settings after the initial configuration. The hardware is able to
change hash type, key, and RETA individually. So, the handlers change
only the affected settings.
Refactor/rename several functions in order to make their intentions
clear. For example, remove all traces of RSS from

Despite being versatile, the hardware support for filtering has a number
of special properties which must be taken into account. Namely, there is
a known set of valid filters which don't take any effect despite being
accepted by the hardware.
The combinations of match flags and field values which can describe the
exceptional filters are as follows:
- ETHER_TYPE or ETHER_TYPE | LOC_MAC with IPv4 or IPv6 EtherType
- ETHER_TYPE | IP_PROTO or ETHER_TYPE | IP_PROTO | LOC_MAC with UDP or
TCP IP protocol value
- The same combinations with OUTER_VID and/or INNER_VID
These exceptional filters can be expressed in terms of RTE flow rules.
If the user creates such a flow rule, no traffic will hit the underlying
filter, and no errors will be reported.

This patch adds support for meter configuration profiles.
Benefits: simplified configuration procedure, improved performance.
Q1: What is the configuration profile and why does it make sense?
A1: The configuration profile represents the set of configuration
parameters for a given meter object, such as the rates and sizes for
the token buckets. The configuration profile concept makes sense when
many meter objects share the same configuration, which is the typical
usage model: thousands of traffic flows are each individually metered
according to just a few service levels (i.e. profiles).
Q2: How is the configuration profile improving the performance?
A2: The performance improvement is achieved by reducing the memory
footprint of a meter object, which results in better cache utilization
for the typical case when large arrays of meter objects are used. The
internal data structures stored for each meter object contain:
a) Constant fields: Low level translation of the configuration
parameters that does not change post-configuration. This is
really duplicated for all meters that use the same
configuration. This is the configuration profile data that is
moved away from the meter object. Current size (implementation
dependent): srTCM = 32 bytes, trTCM = 32 bytes.
b) Variable fields: Time stamps and running counters that change
during the on-going traffic metering process. Current size
(implementation dependent): srTCM = 24 bytes, trTCM = 32 bytes.
Therefore, by moving the constant fields to a separate profile
data structure shared by all the meters with the same
configuration, the size of the meter object is reduced by ~50%.

rte_eth_rx_burst(..,nb_pkts) function has semantic that if return value

When mlx5 is not compiled directly as an independent shared object (e.g.

This is an issue both when DPDK is delivered as a binary package (Linux

Application writers relying on binary DPDK packages are not necessarily

Removed the hardcoded preconfigured Rx VLAN offload configuration
from testpmd and changed the Rx offload command line parameters from
disable to enable.
It has been decided by the Technical Board that testers who wish to
use these offloads will now have to explicitly write them in the
command-line when running testpmd.
The agreement is to keep two exceptions enabled by default in 18.02:
Rx CRC strip and Tx fast free.
Motivation:
Some PMDs such at the mlx4 may not implement all the offloads.
After the offload API rework assuming no offload is enabled by default,
commit ce17eddefc ("ethdev: introduce Rx queue offloads API")
commit cba7f53b71 ("ethdev: introduce Tx queue offloads API") trying
to enable a not supported offload is clearly an error which will cause
configuration failing.
Considering that testpmd is an application to test the PMD, it should
not fail on a configuration which was not explicitly requested.
The behavior of this test application is then turned to an opt-in
model.

The ownership of a port is implicit in DPDK.
Making it explicit is better from the next reasons:
1. It will define well who is in charge of the port usage synchronization.
2. A library could work on top of a port.
3. A port can work on top of another port.
Also in the fail-safe case, an issue has been met in testpmd.
We need to check that the application is not trying to use a port which
is already managed by fail-safe.
A port owner is built from owner id(number) and owner name(string) while
the owner id must be unique to distinguish between two identical entity
instances and the owner name can be any name.
The name helps to logically recognize the owner by different DPDK
entities and allows easy debug.
Each DPDK entity can allocate an owner unique identifier and can use it
and its preferred name to owns valid ethdev ports.
Each DPDK entity can get any port owner status to decide if it can
manage the port or not.
The mechanism is synchronized for both the primary process threads and
the secondary processes threads to allow secondary process entity to be
a port owner.
Add a synchronized ownership mechanism to DPDK Ethernet devices to
avoid multiple management of a device by different DPDK entities.
The current ethdev internal port management is not affected by this
feature.

The EAL and compat libraries were special-cases in the library build
process, the former because of it's complexity, and the latter because
it only consists of a single header file.
By reworking the EAL meson.build files, we can eliminate the need for it to
be a special case, by having it build up and return the list of sources,
headers, and objects and return those to the higher level build file. This
should also simplify the building of EAL, as we can eliminate a number of
meson.build files that would no longer be needed, and have fewer, but
larger meson.build files (9 now vs 14 previous) - thereby making the logic
easier to follow and items easier to find.
Once done, we can pull eal into the main library loop, with some
modifications to support it. Compat can also be pulled it once we add in a
check to handle the case of an empty sources list.

We need the synchronous way for multi-process communication,
i.e., blockingly waiting for reply message when we send a request
to the peer process.
We add two APIs rte_eal_mp_request() and rte_eal_mp_reply() for
such use case. By invoking rte_eal_mp_request(), a request message
is sent out, and then it waits there for a reply message. The caller
can specify the timeout. And the response messages will be collected
and returned so that the caller can decide how to translate them.
The API rte_eal_mp_reply() is always called by an mp action handler.
Here we add another parameter for rte_eal_mp_t so that the action
handler knows which peer address to reply.

* A secondary process is only allowed to talk to the primary process.

* When thread-n is sending request, thread-m of that process can send
request at the same time.
* For pair <action_name, peer>, we guarantee that only one such request
is on the fly.

Previouly, there are three channels for multi-process
(i.e., primary/secondary) communication.
1. Config-file based channel, in which, the primary process writes
info into a pre-defined config file, and the secondary process
reads the info out.
2. vfio submodule has its own channel based on unix socket for the
secondary process to get container fd and group fd from the
primary process.
3. pdump submodule also has its own channel based on unix socket for
packet dump.
It'd be good to have a generic communication channel for multi-process
communication to accommodate the requirements including:
a. Secondary wants to send info to primary, for example, secondary
would like to send request (about some specific vdev to primary).
b. Sending info at any time, instead of just initialization time.
c. Share FDs with the other side, for vdev like vhost, related FDs
(memory region, kick) should be shared.
d. A send message request needs the other side to response immediately.
This patch proposes to create a communication channel, based on datagram
unix socket, for above requirements. Each process will block on a unix
socket waiting for messages from the peers.
Three new APIs are added:
1. rte_eal_mp_action_register() is used to register an action,
indexed by a string, when a component at receiver side would like
to response the messages from the peer processe.
2. rte_eal_mp_action_unregister() is used to unregister the action
if the calling component does not want to response the messages.
3. rte_eal_mp_sendmsg() is used to send a message, and returns
immediately. If there are n secondary processes, the primary
process will send n messages.

This patch is the last patch in the series of patches aimed
to add support for registering and waiting for Rx interrupts
in failsafe PMD. This allows applications to wait for Rx events
from the PMD using the DPDK rte_epoll subsystem.
The failsafe PMD presents to the application a facade of a single
device to be handled by the application while internally it manages
several devices on behalf of the application including packets
transmission and reception.
The Proposed failsafe Rx interrupt scheme follows this approach.
The failsafe PMD will present the application with a single set of
Rx interrupt vectors representing the failsafe Rx queues, while
internally it will serve as an interrupt proxy for its subdevices.
will allow applications to wait for Rx traffic from the failsafe
PMD by registering and waiting for Rx events from its Rx queues.
In order to support this the following is suggested:
* Every Rx queue in the failsafe (virtual) device will be assigned
* a Linux event file descriptor (efd) and an enable_interrupts flag.
* The failsafe PMD will fill in its rte_intr_handle structure with
the Rx efds assigned previously and register them with the EAL.
* The failsafe driver will create a private epoll fd (epfd) and
* will allocate enough space to handle all the Rx events from all its
subdevices.
* Acting as an application,
for each Rx queue in each active subdevice the failsafe will:
o Register the Rx queue with the EAL.
o Pass the EAL the failsafe private epoll fd as the epfd to
register the Rx queue event on.
o Pass the EAL, as a parameter, the pointer to the failsafe Rx
queue that handles this Rx queue.
o Using the DPDK service callbacks, the failsafe PMD will launch
an Rx proxy service that will Wait on the epoll fd for Rx
events from the sub-devices.
o For each Rx event received the proxy service will
- Retrieve the pointer to failsafe Rx queue that handles
this subdevice Rx queue from the user info returned by the
EAL.
- Trigger a failsafe Rx event on that queue by writing to
the event fd unless interrupts are disabled for that queue.
* The failsafe pmd will also implement the rx_queue_intr_enable
* and rx_queue_intr_disable routines that will enable and disable Rx
interrupts respectively on both on the failsafe and its subdevices.

This commit adds a new function rte_eal_cleanup().
The function serves as a hook to allow DPDK to release
internal resources (e.g.: hugepage allocations).
This function allows DPDK to become more like an ordinary
library, where the library context itself can be initialized

The rte_exit() and rte_panic() functions must be considered,
particularly if they should call rte_eal_cleanup() to release any
resources or not. This patch adds the cleanup to rte_exit(),
but does not clean up on rte_panic(). The reason to not clean

Using DPDK in Hyper-V VM systems requires vdev_netvsc driver to pair
the NetVSC netdev device with the same MAC address PCI device by

Add vdev_netvsc custom scan in vdev bus to allow automatic probing in
Hyper-V VM systems unless it was already specified by command line.

As described in more details in the attached documentation (see patch
contents), this virtual device driver manages NetVSC interfaces in virtual
machines hosted by Hyper-V/Azure platforms.
This driver does not manage traffic nor Ethernet devices directly; it acts
as a thin configuration layer that automatically instantiates and controls
fail-safe PMD instances combining tap and PCI sub-devices, so that each
NetVSC interface is exposed as a single consolidated port to DPDK
applications.
PCI sub-devices being hot-pluggable (e.g. during VM migration),
applications automatically benefit from increased throughput when present
and automatic fallback on NetVSC otherwise without interruption thanks to
fail-safe's hot-plug handling.
Once initialized, the sole job of the vdev_netvsc driver is to regularly
scan for PCI devices to associate with NetVSC interfaces and feed their
addresses to corresponding fail-safe instances.

Ethdev Tx offloads API has changed since:
commit cba7f53b71 ("ethdev: introduce Tx queue offloads API")
This commit support the new Tx offloads API.
The code which fills in txq_flags in default_txconf is preserved
because rte_eth_dev_info_get() lacks conversion between offloads
and txq_flags fields which means that a legacy application which
relies on default_txconf will fail to configure Tx queues in the
case when some bits in txq_flags are mandatory.

In case of inline protocol processed ingress traffic, the packet may not
have enough information to determine the security parameters with which
the packet was processed. In such cases, application could get metadata
from the packet which could be used to identify the security parameters
with which the packet was processed.
Application could register "userdata" with the security session, and
this could be retrieved from the metadata of inline processed packets.
The metadata returned by "rte_security_get_pkt_metadata()" will be
device specific. Also the driver is expected to return the application
registered "userdata" as is, without any modifications.

When security offload is enabled, the packet should be forwarded on the

unencrypted packets being sent out.
This would have performance improvements too, as the per packet LPM

The pointer to the user parameter of the callback registration is
automatically pass to the callback function.
There is no point to allow changing this user parameter by a caller.
That's why this parameter is always set to NULL by PMDs and set only
in ethdev layer before calling the callback function.
The history is that the user parameter was initially used
by the callback implementation to pass some information
between the application and the driver:
c1ceaf3ad0 ("ethdev: add an argument to internal callback function")
Then a new parameter has been added to leave the user parameter
to its standard usage of context given at registration:
d6af1a13d7 ("ethdev: add return values to callback process API")
The NULL parameter in the internal callback processing function
is now removed. It makes clear that the callback parameter is user
managed and opaque from a DPDK point of view.

Without this patch, the number of queues per i40e VF is set to 4
by CONFIG_RTE_LIBRTE_I40E_QUEUE_NUM_PER_VF=4 in config/common_base.
It is a fixed value determined at compile time and can't be changed
at run time.
With this patch, the number of queues per i40e VF can be determined
at run time. For example, if the PCI address of an i40e PF is
aaaa:bb.cc, with the EAL parameter -w aaaa:bb.cc,queue-num-per-vf=8,
the number of queues per VF created from this PF is set to 8.
If there is no "queue-num-per-vf" setting in EAL parameters, it uses
the default value of 4. And if the value after the "queue-num-per-vf"
is invalid, it will also use the default value. The valid values can
be 1, 2, 4, 8, or 16.
