igb_uio: map dummy DMA forcing IOMMU domain attachment
For using a DPDK app when iommu is enabled, it requires to
add iommu=pt to the kernel command line. But using igb_uio driver
makes DMAR errors because the device has not an IOMMU domain.
Since kernel 3.15, iommu=pt requires to use the internal kernel
DMA API for attaching the device to the IOMMU 1:1 mapping, aka
si_domain. Previous versions did attach the device to that
domain when intel iommu notifier was called.
This is not a problem if the driver does later some call to the
DMA API because the mapping can be done then. But DPDK apps do
not use that DMA API at all.
Doing this dma map and unmap is harmless even when iommu is not
enabled at all.

mk: optimize directory dependencies
Before this patch, the management of dependencies between directories
had several issues:
- the generation of .depdirs, done at configuration is slow: it can take
more than one minute on some slow targets (usually ~10s on a standard
PC without -j).
- for instance, it is possible to express a dependency like:
- app/foo depends on lib/librte_foo
- and lib/librte_foo depends on app/bar
But this won't work because the directories are traversed with a
depth-first algorithm, so we have to choose between doing 'app' before
or after 'lib'.
- the script depdirs-rule.sh is too complex.
- we cannot use "make -d" for debug, because the output of make is used for
the generation of .depdirs.
This patch moves the DEPDIRS-* variables in the upper Makefile, making
the dependencies much easier to calculate. A DEPDIRS variable is still
used to process library dependencies in LDLIBS.
After this commit, "make config" is almost immediate.

Memory init can only fail when access to hugepages (either as primary or

Downstreams might want to provide different DPDK releases at the same
time to support multiple consumers of DPDK linked against older and newer

Also due to the interdependencies that DPDK libraries can have applications

library are mapped by ld.so.
Think of LibA that got an ABI bump and LibB that did not get an ABI bump
but is depending on LibA.
Application
\-> LibA.old
\-> LibB.new -> LibA.new
That is a conflict which can be avoided by setting CONFIG_RTE_MAJOR_ABI.
If set CONFIG_RTE_MAJOR_ABI overwrites any LIBABIVER value.
An example might be ``CONFIG_RTE_MAJOR_ABI=16.11`` which will make all
libraries librte<?>.so.16.11 instead of librte<?>.so.<LIBABIVER>.
We need to cut arbitrary long stings after the .so now and this would work
for any ABI version in LIBABIVER:
$(Q)ln -s -f $< $(patsubst %.$(LIBABIVER),%,$@)
But using the following instead additionally allows to simplify the Make

The coremask option in DPDK is difficult to use and we should be
promoting the use of the corelist (-l) option. The patch
adjusts the docs to use -l EAL option instead of the -c option.
The patch only changes the docs and not the code as the -c option
will continue to exist unless it is removed in the future. The -c
option should be kept to maintain backward compatibility.

mk: rename test related rules
Make rules renamed to a common syntax, test-x:
fast_test -> test-fast
ring_test -> test-ring
mempool_test -> test-mempool
perf_test -> test-perf
These are to run various sub-set of the unit tests.
Not touched to make rules that are already following the syntax:
test-basic
test-build
test
