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.
* If there are multiple secondary processes for the primary process,
it will send request to peer1, collect response from peer1; then
send request to peer2, collect response from peer2, and so on.
* 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 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
and cleaned up by the application.
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
up on panicing is that the developer may wish to inspect the
exact internal state of EAL and hugepages.

This patch provides an option to do rte_memcpy() using 'restrict'
qualifier, which can induce GCC to do optimizations by using more
efficient instructions, providing some performance gain over memcpy()
on some ARM64 platforms/enviroments.
The memory copy performance differs between different ARM64
platforms. And a more recent glibc (e.g. 2.23 or later)
can provide a better memcpy() performance compared to old glibc
versions. It's always suggested to use a more recent glibc if
possible, from which the entire system can get benefit. If for some
reason an old glibc has to be used, this patch is provided for an
alternative.
This implementation can improve memory copy on some ARM64
platforms, when an old glibc (e.g. 2.19, 2.17...) is being used.
It is disabled by default and needs "RTE_ARCH_ARM64_MEMCPY"
defined to activate. It's not always proving better performance
than memcpy() so users need to run DPDK unit test
"memcpy_perf_autotest" and customize parameters in "customization
section" in rte_memcpy_64.h for best performance.
Compiler version will also impact the rte_memcpy() performance.
It's observed on some platforms and with the same code, GCC 7.2.0
compiled binary can provide better performance than GCC 4.8.5. It's
suggested to use GCC 5.4.0 or later.
