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.

When log initialization fails, it's generally because the fopencookie

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

manner of failure is not reversible, we cannot allow retry.
There are some theoretical racy conditions in the system that _could_
cause early tailq init to fail; however, no need to panic the

alerts to the user.
rte_eal_alarm_init() call uses the linux timerfd framework to create a

Downstreams might want to provide different DPDK releases at the same
time to support multiple consumers of DPDK linked against older and newer
sonames.
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),%,$@)

devtools: ignore warning on long log string
The checkpatch.pl tool is flagging warnings on long debug log strings.
Since splitting these strings makes it difficult to search for logs it is
preferred to allow these as exceptions to the long line rule. The addition
of the LONG_LINE_STRINGS to the list of exceptions will allow lines that
end with a string to exceed the maximum line length, but lines that end
with variables or other constructs will still be flagged as errors. Also,
lines that make use of PRIx64 with string concatenation will still be
flagged if the beginning of the last string fragment begins after the 80
character threshold.

Since "make test" and "make test-build" does dependency resolving, they

doc: announce API changes for vhost
I made a vhost ABI/API refactoring at v16.04, meant to avoid such issue
forever. Well, apparently, I lied.
People are looking for more vhost-user options now days, other than
vhost-user net only. For example, SPDK (Storage Performance Development
Kit) are looking for chance of vhost-user SCSI and vhost-user block.
Apparently, they also need a vhost-user backend, while DPDK already
has a (mature enough) backend, they don't want to implement it again
from scratch. They want to leverage the one DPDK provides.
However, the last refactoring hasn't done that right, at least it's
not friendly for extending vhost-user to add more devices support.
For example, different virtio devices has its own feature set, while
APIs like rte_vhost_feature_disable(feature_mask) have no option to
tell the device type. Thus, a more proper API should look like:
rte_vhost_feature_disable(device_type, feature_mask);
Besides that, few public files and structures should be renamed, to
not let it bind to virtio-net. Specifically, they are:
- virtio_net_device_ops --> vhost_device_ops
- rte_virtio_net.h --> rte_vhost.h

doc: add distributor library API change notice
Given that the packet distributor library improvements (1) will
not be in 17.02, I plan on doing some consolidation of the
API for burst operation for 17.05, merging the two api's into
one, with options for single or burst operation.
