The goal of rte_os.h is to mitigate OS differences for EAL users.
In Windows EAL, rte_os.h did excessive things:

1. It included platform SDK headers (windows.h, etc). Those files are
   huge, require specific inclusion order, and are generally unused by
   the code including rte_os.h. Declarations from platform SDK may
   break otherwise platform-independent code, e.g. min, max, ERROR.

2. It included pthread.h, which is clearly not always required.

3. It defined functions private to Windows EAL.

Reorganize Windows EAL includes in the following way:

1. Create rte_windows.h to properly import Windows-specific facilities.
   Primary users are bus drivers, tests, and external applications.

2. Remove platform SDK includes from rte_os.h to make it portable.
   Copy necessary definitions to avoid including those headers.

3. Remove pthread.h include from rte_os.h.

4. Move declarations private to Windows EAL into eal_windows.h.

Fixes: 428eb983 ("eal: add OS specific header file")

That's an interesting point of view.
The idea of rte_os.h was to hide OS-specifics, so the DPDK applications
have no Windows-specific header to include for using DPDK.
The secondary goal is to avoid Windows-specific includes in DPDK libs
and drivers.

I agree bloating rte_os.h is a concern.
If you can achieve the initial goal (no specific include in apps, libs
and drivers) while reducing rte_os.h, I think it is good.

This file is compiled only on Windows.
What do you mean with "portable"?

<rte_windows.h> would be such a specific include, like <rte_kni_common.h> in
Linux EAL. This file would include Windows platform SDK files in the right
order, define feature macros and maybe error-handling macros, so that EAL
users could just access Windows SDK in one line without being bothered by
details and having handy macros as a bonus.


> This file is compiled only on Windows.
> What do you mean with "portable"?

By "portable" I mean not breaking OS-independent code with Windows defines.
Item 1 gives "min", "max" and "ERROR" macros as examples. Also, some Windows
includes must come after the others, e.g. <winsock2.h> (Berkeley sockets) must
come strictly after <windows.h>, and it's not an isolated case.

Thanks, I've little experience sending patches.
