[dpdk-dev] [PATCH 00/26] DPDK PMD for OCTEONTX NW device

[Jerin Jacob]

This patch set provides the initial version of DPDK PMD for the
integrated NIC device found in Cavium OCTEONTX SoC(CN83xx) family.

Introduction to OCTEONTX ARM processors can be found
here: http://www.cavium.com/OCTEON-TX_ARM_Processors.html

OCTEONTX SoC family has two types of NIC controllers,
1) nicvf HW, Which is more like traditional NIC(no NPU HW accelerators)
http://dpdk.org/doc/guides/nics/thunderx.html

2) NIC controller, based on NPU like HW accelerated coprocessors, like
HW assisted mempool manager, HW assisted packet scheduler, etc

This driver adds support for the second type device and which will be
used as HW implementation driver ethdev-eventdev Rx adapter [1]

Implemented features and PMD documentation added
in doc/guides/nics/features/octeontx.ini and doc/guides/nics/octeontx.rst
respectively in this patch set.

This driver has the dependency on:
- IOVA infrastructure [2].
- Dynamically configure mempool handle (ie.. --mbuf-pool-ops eal arg) [3].
- Infrastructure to support octeontx HW mempool manager [4].
- Cavium Octeontx external mempool driver [5]
Git source repo for all above dependency patches located at [6].

The series has three check patch issues:
1) 1 Error on Complex Macro (which I believe it cannot be fixed) # Patch 2
2) 1 Error on spacing while using gcc inline assembly(it is false positive) # patch 2
3) Added Co-authored-by: signature to reflect the patch authorship status instead
of "Signed-off-by". It can be changed or the contributing guide can be
updated based on the community feedback in v2.
