[PATCH v2 00/22] lib: add pdcp protocol

[Anoob Joseph <anoobj@marvell.com>]

Add Packet Data Convergence Protocol (PDCP) processing library.

The library is similar to lib_ipsec which provides IPsec processing
capabilities in DPDK.

PDCP would involve roughly the following operations,
1. Transfer of user plane data
2. Transfer of control plane data
3. Header compression
4. Uplink data compression
5. Ciphering and integrity protection

PDCP library provides following control path APIs that is used to
configure various PDCP entities,
1. rte_pdcp_entity_establish()
2. rte_pdcp_entity_suspend()
3. rte_pdcp_entity_release()

PDCP process is split into 2 parts. One before crypto processing
(rte_pdcp_pkt_pre_process()) and one after crypto processing
(rte_pdcp_pkt_post_process()). Since cryptodev dequeue can return crypto
operations belonging to multiple entities, rte_pdcp_pkt_crypto_group()
is added to help grouping crypto operations belonging to same entity.

Similar to lib IPsec, lib PDCP would allow application to use same API
sequence while leveraging protocol offload features enabled by rte_security
library. Lib PDCP would internally change the handles registered for
*pre_process* and *post_process* based on features enabled in the entity.

Lib PDCP would create the required sessions on the device provided in entity to
minimize the application requirements. Also, the crypto_op allocation and free
would also be done internally by lib PDCP to allow the library to create
crypto ops as required for the input packets. For example, when control PDUs are
received, no cryptodev enqueue-dequeue is expected for the same and lib PDCP
is expected to handle it differently.

Lib PDCP utilizes reorder library for implementing in-order delivery. It
utilizes bitmap library for implementing status reports and track the COUNT
value of the packets received. To allow application to choose timer
implementation of choice, lib PDCP allows application to configure handles that
can be used for starting & stopping timers. Upon expiry, application can call
corresponding PDCP API(``rte_pdcp_t_reordering_expiry_handle``) for handling the
event. Unit tests are added to verify both rte_timer based timers as well as
rte_eventdev based timers.

PDCP tracks the sequence number of the received packets and during events such
as re-establishment, it is required to generate reports and transmit to the
peer. This series introduces ``rte_pdcp_control_pdu_create`` for handling
control PDU generation.

Changes in v2:
- Added control PDU handling
- Added t-Reordering timer
- Added in-order delivery
- Added status PDU generation
- Rebased on top of new features added in reorder library
- Split base patch
- Increased test coverage
- Improved thread safety

Changes from RFC
- Implementation for all APIs covering basic control plane & user plane packets
- Unit test leveraging existing PDCP vectors available in test_cryptodev
- Unit test performing both UL & DL operations to verify various protocol
  features
- Updated documentation

Sample application sequence:

	struct rte_mbuf **out_mb, *pkts[MAX_BURST_SIZE];
	struct rte_crypto_op *cop[MAX_BURST_SIZE];
	struct rte_pdcp_group grp[MAX_BURST_SIZE];
	struct rte_pdcp_entity *pdcp_entity;
	int nb_max_out_mb, ret, nb_grp;

	/* Create PDCP entity */
	pdcp_entity = rte_pdcp_entity_establish(&conf);

	/**
	 * Allocate buffer for holding mbufs returned during PDCP suspend,
	 * release & post-process APIs.
	 */

	/* Max packets that can be cached in entity + burst size */
	nb_max_out_mb = pdcp_entity->max_pkt_cache + 1;
	out_mb = rte_malloc(NULL, nb_max_out_mb * sizeof(uintptr_t), 0);
	if (out_mb == NULL) {
		/* Handle error */
	}

	while (1) {
		/* Receive packet and form mbuf */

		/**
		 * Prepare packets for crypto operation. Following operations
		 * would be done,
		 *
		 * Transmitting entity/UL (only data PDUs):
		 *  - Perform compression
		 *  - Assign sequence number
		 *  - Add PDCP header
		 *  - Create & prepare crypto_op
		 *  - Prepare IV for crypto operation (auth_gen, encrypt)
		 *  - Save original PDCP SDU (during PDCP re-establishment,
		 *    unconfirmed PDCP SDUs need to crypto processed again and
		 *    transmitted/re-transmitted)
		 *
		 *  Receiving entity/DL:
		 *  - Any control PDUs received would be processed and
		 *    appropriate actions taken. If data PDU, continue.
		 *  - Determine sequence number (based on HFN & per packet SN)
		 *  - Prepare crypto_op
		 *  - Prepare IV for crypto operation (decrypt, auth_verify)

						      nb_rx, &nb_err);
		if (nb_err != 0) {
			/* Handle error packets */
		}

		if ((rte_cryptodev_enqueue_burst(dev_id, qp_id, cop, nb_success)
				!= nb_success) {
			/* Retry for enqueue failure packets */
		}

		nb_grp = rte_pdcp_pkt_crypto_group(cop, pkts, grp, ret);

			 *  - If not in sequence, cache the packet and start
