2019-10-13	Increase the default number of rx and tx descriptors to 2K	Xavier Simonart	1	-1/+1
	A high number of RX descriptor can be helpful in avoiding packet loss due to the core being interrupted. This commit increases the default number of descriptors from 256 to 2K. Those values are checked versus the minimum and maximum supported by the pmd. Number of mbufs (mempool size) have been updated n config files to support this default number of dsescriptors. The number of descriptors can still be overwritten by the config file. However those values must always remain within the limits reported by the pmd.

2019-10-09	Add support for igmp and multicast	Xavier Simonart	1	-0/+108
	Multicast can be enabled through configuration or through command line - Through configuration Add multicast=mcast_address (e.g. multicast=01:00:5e:01:02:03) in the port section - Through command line run enable multicast port_id mcast_address (e.g. enable multicast 1 01:00:5e:01:02:03) IGMP join message is sent unsollicited through command line: join igmp core_id task_id ip (e.g. join igmp 1 0 224.1.1.3) To enable swap answering IGMP Query (w/ IGMP Join) - Through configuration Add igmp ipv4=ip_address within the core/task section - Through command line join igmp core_id task_id ip (e.g. join igmp 1 0 224.1.1.3) (this will 1st initiate an unsollicated join, then answer any subsequent query) UDP/TCP packets received on a multicast address (224.0.0.0 => 239.255.255.255) are discarded To stop sending responses to IGMP query: leave igmp core_id task_id Change-Id: I3808ccabf3b38b5a1e10e1b044db63aa05bcd7b5 Signed-off-by: Xavier Simonart <xavier.simonart@intel.com>
