net/virtio: do not store PCI device pointer at shared memory
hw->dev, a pointer to pci_dev, was actually not used, until the
refactor of decouping from PCI device. This would somehow break
the multiple process again, since "hw" is stored at shared memory,
while "pci_dev" is not: the primary and secondary process could
have different address for it, while just one value is allowed.
Thus we should not store it to "hw", instead, we could retrieve
it from the "eth_dev->device" field.

net/virtio: fix multiple process support
The introduce of virtio 1.0 support brings yet another set of ops, badly,
it's not handled correctly, that it breaks the multiple process support.
The issue is the data/function pointer may vary from different processes,
and the old used to do one time set (for primary process only). That
said, the function pointer the secondary process saw is actually from the
primary process space. Accessing it could likely result to a crash.
Kudos to the last patches, we now be able to maintain those info that may
vary among different process locally, meaning every process could have its
own copy for each of them, with the correct value set. And this is what
this patch does:
- remap the PCI (IO port for legacy device and memory map for modern
device)
- set vtpci_ops correctly
After that, multiple process would work like a charm. (At least, it
passed my fuzzy test)

net/virtio: store PCI operators pointer locally
We used to store the vtpci_ops at virtio_hw structure. The struct,
however, is stored in shared memory. That means only one value is
allowed. For the multiple process model, however, the address of
vtpci_ops should be different among different processes.
Take virtio PMD as example, the vtpci_ops is set by the primary
process, based on its own process space. If we access that address
from the secondary process, that would be an illegal memory access,
A crash then might happen.
To make the multiple process model work, we need store the vtpci_ops
in local memory but not in a shared memory. This is what the patch
does: a local virtio_hw_internal array of size RTE_MAX_ETHPORTS is
allocated. This new structure is used to store all these kind of
info in a non-shared memory. Current, we have:
- vtpci_ops
- rte_pci_ioport
- virtio pci mapped memory, such as common_cfg.
The later two will be done in coming patches. Later patches would also
set them correctly for secondary process, so that the multiple process

ethdev: fix port data mismatched in multiple process model
Assume we have two virtio ports, 00:03.0 and 00:04.0. The first one is
managed by the kernel driver, while the later one is managed by DPDK.
Now we start the primary process. 00:03.0 will be skipped by DPDK virtio
PMD driver (since it's being used by the kernel). 00:04.0 would be
successfully initiated by DPDK virtio PMD (if nothing abnormal happens).
After that, we would get a port id 0, and all the related info needed
by virtio (virtio_hw) is stored at rte_eth_dev_data[0].
Then we start the secondary process. As usual, 00:03.0 will be firstly
probed. It firstly tries to get a local eth_dev structure for it (by
rte_eth_dev_allocate):
port_id = rte_eth_dev_find_free_port();
...
eth_dev = &rte_eth_devices[port_id];
eth_dev->data = &rte_eth_dev_data[port_id];
...
return eth_dev;
Since it's a first PCI device, port_id will be 0. eth_dev->data would
then point to rte_eth_dev_data[0]. And here things start going wrong,
as rte_eth_dev_data[0] actually stores the virtio_hw for 00:04.0.
That said, in the secondary process, DPDK will continue to drive PCI
device 00.03.0 (despite the fact it's been managed by kernel), with
the info from PCI device 00:04.0. Which is wrong.
The fix is to attach the port already registered by the primary process.
That is, iterate the rte_eth_dev_data[], and get the port id who's PCI
ID matches the current PCI device.
This would let us maintain same port ID for the same PCI device, keeping
the chance of referencing to wrong data minimal.

Since all current drivers supports Tx preparation API, it is used
in csum forwarding engine by default for all drivers.
Adding additional step to the csum engine costs about 3-4% of performance
drop, on my setup with ixgbe driver. It's caused mostly by the need
of reaccessing and modification of packet data.

ethdev: add Tx preparation
Added API for `rte_eth_tx_prepare`
uint16_t rte_eth_tx_prepare(uint8_t port_id, uint16_t queue_id,
struct rte_mbuf **tx_pkts, uint16_t nb_pkts)
Added fields to the `struct rte_eth_desc_lim`:
uint16_t nb_seg_max;
/**< Max number of segments per whole packet. */
uint16_t nb_mtu_seg_max;
/**< Max number of segments per one MTU */
These fields can be used to create valid packets according to the
following rules:
* For non-TSO packet, a single transmit packet may span up to
"nb_mtu_seg_max" buffers.
* For TSO packet the total number of data descriptors is "nb_seg_max",
and each segment within the TSO may span up to "nb_mtu_seg_max".
Added functions:
int
rte_validate_tx_offload(struct rte_mbuf *m)
to validate general requirements for tx offload set in mbuf of packet
such a flag completness. In current implementation this function is
called optionaly when RTE_LIBRTE_ETHDEV_DEBUG is enabled.
int rte_net_intel_cksum_prepare(struct rte_mbuf *m)
to prepare pseudo header checksum for TSO and non-TSO tcp/udp packets
before hardware tx checksum offload.
- for non-TSO tcp/udp packets full pseudo-header checksum is
counted and set.
- for TSO the IP payload length is not included.
int
rte_net_intel_cksum_flags_prepare(struct rte_mbuf *m, uint64_t ol_flags)
this function uses same logic as rte_net_intel_cksum_prepare, but
allows application to choose which offloads should be taken into
account, if full preparation is not required.
PERFORMANCE TESTS
-----------------
This feature was tested with modified csum engine from test-pmd.
The packet checksum preparation was moved from application to Tx
preparation step placed before burst.
We may expect some overhead costs caused by:
1) using additional callback before burst,
2) rescanning burst,
3) additional condition checking (packet validation),
4) worse optimization (e.g. packet data access, etc.)
We tested it using ixgbe Tx preparation implementation with some parts
disabled to have comparable information about the impact of different
parts of implementation.
IMPACT:
1) For unimplemented Tx preparation callback the performance impact is
negligible,
2) For packet condition check without checksum modifications (nb_segs,
available offloads, etc.) is
14626628/
14252168 (~2.62% drop),
3) Full support in ixgbe driver (point 2 + packet checksum
initialization) is
14060924/
13588094 (~3.48% drop)

ethdev: fix extended statistics name index
The function rte_eth_xstats_get() return an array of tuples (id,
value). The value is the statistic counter, while the id references a
name in the array returned by rte_eth_xstats_get_name().
Today, each 'id' returned by rte_eth_xstats_get() is equal to the index
in the returned array, making this value useless. It also prevents a
driver from having different indexes for names and value, like in the
example below:
rte_eth_xstats_get_name() returns:
0: "rx0_stat"
1: "rx1_stat"
2: ...
7: "rx7_stat"
8: "tx0_stat"
9: "tx1_stat"
...
15: "tx7_stat"
rte_eth_xstats_get() returns:
0: id=0, val=<stat> ("rx0_stat")
1: id=1, val=<stat> ("rx1_stat")
2: id=8, val=<stat> ("tx0_stat")
3: id=9, val=<stat> ("tx1_stat")
This patch fixes the drivers to set the 'id' in their ethdev->xstats_get()
(except e1000 which was already doing it), and fixes ethdev by not setting
the 'id' field to the index of the table for pmd-specific stats: instead,
they should just be shifted by the max number of generic statistics.

cmdline: support dynamic tokens
Considering tokens must be hard-coded in a list part of the instruction
structure, context-dependent tokens cannot be expressed.
This commit adds support for building dynamic token lists through a
user-provided function, which is called when the static token list is empty
(a single NULL entry).
Because no structures are modified (existing fields are reused), this
commit has no impact on the current ABI.
