[dpdk-dev] [PATCH v4 00/17] sched: subport level configuration of pipe nodes

[Jasvinder Singh]

This patchset refactors the dpdk qos sched library to allow subport
level configuration flexibility of the pipe nodes.

Currently, all parameters for the pipe nodes (subscribers)
configuration are part of the port level structure which forces
all groups of subscribers (pipes) in different subports to
have similar configurations in terms of their number, queue sizes,
traffic-classes, etc.

The new implementation moves pipe nodes configuration parameters
from port level to subport level structure. This allows different
subports of the same port to have different configuration for the
pipe nodes, for examples- number of pipes, queue sizes, pipe
profiles, etc.

In order to keep the implementation complexity under control, all
pipes within the same subport share the same configuration for queue
sizes.

v4:
- remove deprecation note
- rebase on current dpdk head
- add 64-bit values support

v3:
- improve doxygen comments

v2:
- fix qsize parsing in sample application
- fix checkpatch warnings
