eal: optimize aligned memcpy on x86
This patch optimizes rte_memcpy for well aligned cases, where both
dst and src addr are aligned to maximum MOV width. It introduces a
dedicated function called rte_memcpy_aligned to handle the aligned
cases with simplified instruction stream. The existing rte_memcpy
is renamed as rte_memcpy_generic. The selection between them 2 is
done at the entry of rte_memcpy.
The existing rte_memcpy is for generic cases, it handles unaligned
copies and make store aligned, it even makes load aligned for micro
architectures like Ivy Bridge. However alignment handling comes at
a price: It adds extra load/store instructions, which can cause
complications sometime.
DPDK Vhost memcpy with Mergeable Rx Buffer feature as an example:
The copy is aligned, and remote, and there is header write along
which is also remote. In this case the memcpy instruction stream
should be simplified, to reduce extra load/store, therefore reduce
the probability of load/store buffer full caused pipeline stall, to
let the actual memcpy instructions be issued and let H/W prefetcher
goes to work as early as possible.
This patch is tested on Ivy Bridge, Haswell and Skylake, it provides
up to 20% gain for Virtio Vhost PVP traffic, with packet size ranging
from 64 to 1500 bytes.
The test can also be conducted without NIC, by setting loopback
traffic between Virtio and Vhost. For example, modify the macro
TXONLY_DEF_PACKET_LEN to the requested packet size in testpmd.h,
rebuild and start testpmd in both host and guest, then "start" on
one side and "start tx_first 32" on the other.

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):
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.

app/testpmd: fix static build link ordering
By introducing explicit -lrte_pmd_ixgbe link request in
testpmd Makefile,"-Wl,-lrte_pmd_ixgbe" provided twice, and linker
removes the duplication by keeping only first occurrence.
This moves "-Wl,-lrte_pmd_ixgbe" out of "-Wl,--whole-archive" flag
and makes symbol generation totally different than previous version
in case of static build.
This patch fixes the static build linking order by introducing
-lrte_pmd_ixgbe under the shared library config
(CONFIG_RTE_BUILD_SHARED_LIB).

mempool: use cache in single producer or consumer mode
Currently we will check mempool flags when we put/get objects from

This patch makes cache available in above cases and improves performance.

pci: separate detaching ethernet ports from PCI devices
Attaching and detaching ethernet ports from an application
is not the same thing as physically removing a PCI device,
so clarify the flags indicating support. All PCI devices

necessary in the PCI layer.

ethdev: define default item masks in flow API
Leaving default pattern item mask values up for interpretation by PMDs is
an undefined behavior that applications might find difficult to use in the
wild. It also needlessly complicates PMD implementation.
This commit addresses this by defining consistent default masks for each
item type.

app/testpmd: use Tx preparation in checksum engine
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.

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:
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.
