Data path performance can benefit if the PMD knows which memory it will need to handle in advance, before the first mbuf is sent to the PMD. It is impractical, however, to consider all allocated memory for this purpose. Most often mbuf memory comes from mempools that can come and go. PMD can enumerate existing mempools on device start, but it also needs to track creation and destruction of mempools after the forwarding starts but before an mbuf from the new mempool is sent to the device. Add an API to register callback for mempool life cycle events: * rte_mempool_event_callback_register() * rte_mempool_event_callback_unregister() Currently tracked events are: * RTE_MEMPOOL_EVENT_READY (after populating a mempool) * RTE_MEMPOOL_EVENT_DESTROY (before freeing a mempool) Provide a unit test for the new API. The new API is internal, because it is primarily demanded by PMDs that may need to deal with any mempools and do not control their creation, while an application, on the other hand, knows which mempools it creates and doesn't care about internal mempools PMDs might create.
