Socket API is used for IPC in order for secondary process to acquire Verb command file descriptor. The FD is used to remap UAR address. The multi-process APIs (rte_mp) in EAL are newly introduced. mlx5_socket.c is replaced with mlx5_mp.c, which uses the new APIs. As it is PMD global infrastructure, only one IPC channel is established. All the IPC message types may have port_id in the message if there is need to reference a specific device.
