JIRA: SAMPLEVNF-149
VLAN can be enabled on a port by adding "vlan=yes" in the port section.
When VLAN is enabled on a port, then DEV_RX_OFFLOAD_VLAN_STRIP
and DEV_TX_OFFLOAD_VLAN_INSERT are enabled (if device supports it).
This will cause VLAN to be stripped from any packets received with
the proper tag, and VLAN to be added for any packets being transmitted.
The VLAN ID themselves are configured through the physical function
using something like (where ens801f1 isthe PF):
ip link set ens801f1 vf 0 vlan 1111

In some cases, like when using virtual functions, getting device
info return a NULL device, which was potentially causing a crash.

JIRA: SAMPLEVNF-127
PROX was crashing in the VM with vector mode enabled and multiple OVS
queues. This was not really a PROX bug, but a DPDK issue, which has been
fixed by DPDK commit https://git.dpdk.org/dpdk/commit/?id=efc83a1e7fc3
This "net/virtio: fix queue setup consistency" is included in DPDK 17.11
and subsequent versions, and has been backported into:
- DPDK 16.11.4:
https://git.dpdk.org/dpdk-stable/commit/?h=16.11&id=516447a5056c
- DPDK 17.08.1:
https://git.dpdk.org/dpdk-stable/commit/?h=17.08&id=907fe4fc263e
This means the fix is not included into any DPDK 17.02.x used by NSB.
Fortunately, a simple workaround consists of calling
rte_eth_tx_queue_setup() before rte_eth_rx_queue_setup().
This change implements this simple workaround, in order to make PROX
work, even with unfixed DPDK versions.

This patch makes PROX compile with DPDK 18.05.
However some features are disabled or will not work as expected
such as:
"mem info" command
"police" mode
Those will need to be fixed later (see DPDK1805 within code).

mbuf size was setup to achieve the best performance i.e.
using the smallest mbuf and not segmenting packets.
However this resulted in complex code, much dependent of the way
the pmd are working e.g. a change(fix) in recent dpdk i40e
implementation caused a 1782 (=1518+8+256) bytes mbuf to be too
small to hold a 1518 bytes packets.
Hence this change simplifies the mbuf size selection at the price
of a potential decreases in performance - as more memory is now used.
Except if jumbo frames are used, the mbuf size will now be the same
for all modes. The packets will not be segmented except if jumbo
frames are enabled.
If jumbo frames are enabled, packets are by default segmented, except
if the mbuf size is configured big enough in the config file.

When configuring a port, prox configures queue flags.
For historitical reasons, offloads had to be disabled on
some pmds.
There is now an API to query the ports and gets their
capabilities. This fix sets now the flags based on the capabilities,
and not the driver name.

Jumbo frames are now supported through the addition of a "mtu"
parameter of the port in the config file.
Setting the mtu to a value higher than 1500 bytes will enable
the reception of jumbo frames.
In addition, the rte_eth_dev_set_mtu is now set for all pmds.
Finally, setting mbuf_size does not set MEMPOOL_F_NO_SPREAD
anymore. This option was only used for pure debugging.
Big packets can be received using two ways
- Using multiple "small" mbufs, i.e. around 2K. This is the default.
- Using one big mbuf holding the whole packet. This can be enabled
by setting a parameter mbuf_size in the receiving core configuration

irq mode can be used to show how a core is interrupted by other tasks.
This mode does not handle packets. It only loops reading tsc.
When the difference between two consecutive calls to rdtsc() is high
then it means the core was interrupted.
This task implementes the display, so that we can see a histogram of
interrupts as well as the maximum, per core.
Command line is also supported, through "show irq buckets" (too show
the intervals of each buckets, in micrcoseconds), and the stats
command line (showing the number of items in each buckets and the max)..

JIRA: SAMPLEVNF-55
PROX is a DPDK-based application implementing Telco use-cases such as
a simplified BRAS/BNG, light-weight AFTR... It also allows configuring
finer grained network functions like QoS, Routing, load-balancing...
(We are moving PROX version v039 to sampleVNF
https://01.org/intel-data-plane-performance-demonstrators/prox-overview)
