test/service: fix race condition on stopping lcore
This commit fixes a potential race condition in the tests
where the lcore running a service would increment a counter
that was already reset by the test-suite thread. The resulting
race-condition incremented value could cause CI failures, as
indicated by DPDK's CI.
This patch fixes the race-condition by making use of the
added rte_service_lcore_active() API, which indicates when
a service-core is no longer in the service-core polling loop.
The unit test makes use of the above function to detect when
all statistics increments are done in the service-core thread,
and then the unit test continues finalizing and checking state.

service: retrieve lcore active state
This commit adds a new experimental API which allows the user
to retrieve the active state of an lcore. Knowing when the service
lcore is completed its polling loop can be useful to applications
to avoid race conditions when e.g. finalizing statistics.
The service thread itself now has a variable to indicate if its
thread is active. When zero the service thread has completed its
service, and has returned from the service_runner_func() function.

pci: move resource mapping to the PCI bus
As reported during 20.08 work for Windows, the pci_map_resource API was

This introduced a regression when adding the rte_mem_map API as reported
in the workaround commit
9d2b24593724 ("pci: keep API compatibility with
mmap values").
This API was only used in the PCI bus code, so move it there.
There is no code change happening during the move.

avoid libfdt checks adding full paths to pkg-config
The checks for libfdt try dependency() first which would only work if
a pkg-config would be present but libfdt has none.
Then it probes for the lib path itself via cc.find_library.
But later it adds the result of either probe to ext_deps which ends up
in build and also the resulting pkg-config to contain toolchain versioned
paths in Libs.private like:
/usr/lib/gcc/x86_64-linux-gnu/9/../../../x86_64-linux-gnu/libfdt.so

When binding or unbinding a range of devices, it can be useful to use
wildcards to specify the devices rather than repeating the same prefix
multiple times. We can use the python "glob" module to give us this
functionality - at least for PCI devices - by checking /sys for matching
files.
Examples of use from my system:
./dpdk-devbind.py -b vfio-pci 80:04.*
./dpdk-devbind.py -u 80:04.[2-7]
The first example binds eight devices, 80:04.0..80:04.7, to vfio-pci. The

doc: announce ethdev API change for Rx split
The DPDK datapath in the transmit direction is very flexible.
The applications can build multi-segment packets and manages
almost all data aspects - the memory pools where segments
are allocated from, the segment lengths, the memory attributes
like external, registered, etc.
In the receiving direction, the datapath is much less flexible,
the applications can only specify the memory pool to configure
the receiving queue and nothing more. The packet being received
can only be pushed to the chain of the mbufs of the same data
buffer size and allocated from the same pool. In order to extend
the receiving datapath buffer description it is proposed to add
the new fields into rte_eth_rxconf structure:
struct rte_eth_rxconf {
...
uint16_t rx_split_num; /* number of segments to split */
uint16_t *rx_split_len; /* array of segment lengths */
struct rte_mempool **mp; /* array of segment memory pools */
...
};
The non-zero value of rx_split_num field configures the receiving
queue to split ingress packets into multiple segments to the mbufs
allocated from various memory pools according to the specified
lengths. The zero value of rx_split_num field provides the
backward compatibility and queue should be configured in a regular
way (with single/multiple mbufs of the same data buffer length
allocated from the single memory pool).
The new approach would allow splitting the ingress packets into
multiple parts pushed to the memory with different attributes.
For example, the packet headers can be pushed to the embedded data
buffers within mbufs and the application data into the external
buffers attached to mbufs allocated from the different memory
pools. The memory attributes for the split parts may differ
either - for example the application data may be pushed into
the external memory located on the dedicated physical device,
say GPU or NVMe. This would improve the DPDK receiving datapath
flexibility preserving compatibility with existing API.
The proposed extended description of receiving buffers might be
considered by other vendors to be involved into similar features
support, it is the subject for the further discussion.

doc: announce removal of L2 tunnel filtering API
The functions for L2 tunnel were missed when marking the legacy

to make clear that it will be removed as well in DPDK 20.11.

doc: announce removal of ethdev flow director API
The flow director config, part of the legacy filtering API,
was marked as deprecated last year.
A separate notice is added to make clear that these specific structs
will be removed as well in DPDK 20.11, as the rest of the legacy
filtering API.

Deprecation of rte_eth_dev_filter_ctrl() was announced in 2016,

After 4 years, it is time to complete the removal of the API
which is replaced with rte_flow.

doc: announce ethdev port freeing on close operation
Since DPDK 18.11, some drivers are migrating to a new behaviour,
releasing port resources on close.
The temporary flag RTE_ETH_DEV_CLOSE_REMOVE triggers this new mode
in the migrated drivers.
After 2 years, the flag and the old behaviour will be removed.
Last drivers not migrated will have to complete the switch.

In order to prepare for adding more features requiring more space in mbuf,
some static fields must become dynamic.
Some small layout changes may have performance benefits as well.
The deprecation notice for atomic refcount is moved and reworded

doc: announce PCI resources map API removal
The PCI resources map API (pci_map_resource/pci_unmap_resource) was
imposing use of Unix mmap flags while it does not make sense on Windows.
This API was only used to internally setup PCI devices in the PCI bus
driver and has no known external users.
Announce its removal in 20.11 with its associated structures.
The workaround implemented in the commit
9d2b24593724 ("pci: keep API
compatibility with mmap values") will be removed at the same time.
