+Wireless device for ICX-D (bbdev) for Turbo decoding/encoding
+=============================================================
+Description
+===========
+
+   The Wireless Baseband library provides a common programming framework that
+   abstracts HW accelerators based on FPGA and/or Fixed Function Accelerators
+   that assist with 3gpp Physical Layer processing. Furthermore, it decouples
+   the application from the compute-intensive wireless functions by abstracting
+   their optimized libraries to appear as virtual bbdev devices.
+   The functional scope of the BBDEV library are those functions in relation to
+   the 3gpp Layer 1 signal processing (channel coding, modulation, ...).
+   The framework currently only supports Turbo Code FEC function.
+   The Wireless Baseband library follows the same ideology of DPDK's Ethernet
+   Device and Crypto Device frameworks. Wireless Baseband provides a generic
+   acceleration abstraction framework which supports both physical (hardware)
+   and virtual (software) wireless acceleration functions.
+
+   Physical bbdev devices are discovered during the PCI probe/enumeration of
+   the EAL function which is executed at DPDK initialization, based on
+   their PCI device identifier, each unique PCI BDF (bus/bridge, device,
+   function).
+   Virtual devices can be created by two mechanisms, either using the EAL
+   command line options or from within the application using an EAL API
+   directly.
+   so it is required to perform validation of the framework divided into
+   2 stages:
+   Stage 1: Validation of the SW-only solution (turbo_sw)
+   Stage 2: Validation of the HW-accelerated solution (ICX-D TIP) on an ICX-D
+   platform.
+   We now only support stage 1.
+
+Prerequisites
+=============
+
+1. OS and Hardware
+   (a) An AVX2 supporting machine
+   (b) Windriver TS 2 or CentOS 7 operating systems
+       (Fedora 25 and Ubuntu 16.04 is ok.)
+   (c) Intel ICC compiler installed
+
+2. FlexRAN SDK Libraries
+   To build DPDK with the *turbo_sw* PMD the user is required to download
+   the export controlled ``FlexRAN SDK`` Libraries.
+   An account at Intel Resource Design Center needs to be registered from
+   https://www.intel.com/content/www/us/en/design/resource-design-center.html
+   Direct download link from Intel RDC ->
+   https://cdrd.intel.com/v1/dl/getContent/575367
+   After download is complete, the user needs to unpack and compile on their
+   system before building DPDK.
+   You can refer to the file dpdk/doc/guides/bbdevs/turbo_sw.rst.
+
+3. PMD setting
+   Current BBDEV framework is en-suited with two vdev PMD drivers:
+   null and turbo_sw.
+   1) Null PMD is similar to cryptodev Null PMD, which is an empty driver to
+   measure the overhead added by the framework.
+   2) Turbo_sw is a sw-only driver wrapper for FlexRAN SDK optimized Turbo
+   coding libraries.
+   It can be enabled by setting
+
+   ``CONFIG_RTE_LIBRTE_PMD_BBDEV_TURBO_SW=y``
+
+   The offload cases can be enabled by setting
+
+   ``CONFIG_RTE_BBDEV_OFFLOAD_COST=y``
+
+   They are both located in the build configuration file ``common_base``.
+
+4. Test tool
+   A test suite for BBDEV is packaged with the framework to ease the
+   validation needs for various functions and use cases.
+   The tool to use for validation and testing is called: test-bbdev,
+   that is packaged with test vectors that are ready-to-use.
+   Test-bbdev tool is located at this location:
+   app/test-bbdev/
+   The command-line options you can refer to:
+   dpdk/doc/guides/tools/testbbdev.rst
+
+
+Test case 1: bbdev null device
+==============================
+
+Executing bbdev null device with *bbdev_null.data* helps in measuring
+the overhead introduced by the bbdev framework::
+
+    ./test-bbdev.py -e="--vdev=baseband_null0"
+    -v ./test_vectors/bbdev_null.data
+
+bbdev_null device does not have to be defined explicitly as it is created
+by default. so the command-line can be written as::
+
+    ./test-bbdev.py -v ./test_vectors/bbdev_null.data
+
+The case only cover unittest, all the other cases are skipped.
+The "bbdev_null.data" can be omitted::
+
+    ./test-bbdev.py
+
+or you can define the specific test defined::
+
+    ./test-bbdev.py -c validation
+
+or::
+
+    ./test-bbdev.py -v test_vectors/bbdev_null.data
+
+All above test cases run with "--vdev=baseband_null0".
+
+Test case 2: Turbo encoding validation
+======================================
+
+It runs **validation** test for Turbo encode vector file
+Number of operations to process on device is set to 64
+and operations timeout is set to 120s
+and enqueue/dequeue burst size is set to 8 and to 32.
+Moreover a bbdev (*turbo_sw*) device will be created::
+
+    ./test-bbdev.py -p ../../x86_64-native-linuxapp-icc/app/testbbdev \
+    -e="--vdev=baseband_turbo_sw" -t 120 -c validation \
+    -v ./test_vectors/turbo_enc_c1_k40_r0_e1196_rm.data -n 64 -b 8 32
+
+you can check the result from the detailed printing, and compare
+the two results from different burst size.
+
+Test case 3: Turbo decoding validation
+======================================
+
+It runs **validation** test for Turbo decode vector file
+we use default options::
+
+    ./test-bbdev.py -e="--vdev=baseband_turbo_sw" -c validation \
+    -v ./test_vectors/turbo_dec_*
+
+you can check the result from the detailed printing.
+
+Test case 4: Turbo encoding latency
+===================================
+
+It runs **latency** test for Turbo encode vector file::
+
+    ./test-bbdev.py -e="--vdev=baseband_turbo_sw" -c latency \
+    -v ./test_vectors/turbo_enc_c1_k40_r0_e1196_rm.data -n 512 -b 64 512
+
+Test calculates three latency metrics:
+1) offload_latency_tc
+2) offload_latency_empty_q_tc
+3) operation_latency_tc
+You can compare the three latency from different burst size.
+
+Test case 5: Turbo decoding latency
+===================================
+
+It runs **latency** test for Turbo decode vector file::
+
+    ./test-bbdev.py -e="--vdev=baseband_turbo_sw" -c latency \
+    -v ./test_vectors/turbo_dec_c1_k40_r0_e17280_sbd_negllr.data -n 512 -b 64
+
+    ./test-bbdev.py -e="--vdev=baseband_turbo_sw" -c latency \
+    -v ./test_vectors/turbo_dec_c1_k40_r0_e17280_sbd_negllr.data -n 128 -b 64
+
+You can compare the three latency from different number of operations.
+
+Test case 6: Turbo encoding throughput
+======================================
+
+It runs **throughput** test for Turbo encode vector file::
+
+    ./test-bbdev.py -e="--vdev=baseband_turbo_sw" -c throughput \
+    -v ./test_vectors/turbo_enc_c1_k40_r0_e1196_rm.data -n 64 -l 16 -b 64
+
+    ./test-bbdev.py -e="--vdev=baseband_turbo_sw" -c throughput \
+    -v ./test_vectors/turbo_enc_c1_k40_r0_e1196_rm.data -n 64 -l 8 -b 64
+
+You can compare the turbo encode throughput from different number of lcores.
+then different burst size::
+
+    ./test-bbdev.py -e="--vdev=baseband_turbo_sw" -c throughput \
+    -v ./test_vectors/turbo_enc_c1_k40_r0_e1196_rm.data -n 64 -l 16 -b 64
+
+    ./test-bbdev.py -e="--vdev=baseband_turbo_sw" -c throughput \
+    -v ./test_vectors/turbo_enc_c1_k40_r0_e1196_rm.data -n 64 -l 16 -b 32
+
+You can compare the turbo encode throughput from different burst size.
+then different number of operations::
+
+    ./test-bbdev.py -e="--vdev=baseband_turbo_sw" -c throughput \
+    -v ./test_vectors/turbo_enc_c1_k40_r0_e1196_rm.data -n 64 -l 16 -b 32
+
+    ./test-bbdev.py -e="--vdev=baseband_turbo_sw" -c throughput \
+    -v ./test_vectors/turbo_enc_c1_k40_r0_e1196_rm.data -n 32 -l 16 -b 32
+
+You can compare the turbo encode throughput from different number of
+operations.
+
+Test case 7: Turbo decoding throughput
+======================================
+
+It runs **throughput** test for Turbo decode vector file.
+you can run the three subcases of test case 6 which just needed to
+change the test vector file to decode data file, and
+compare the results.
+
+Test case 8: Turbo encoding and decoding offload and latency
+============================================================
+
+It runs **offload ** and **latency** test for Turbo encode vector file::
+
+    ./test-bbdev.py -p ../../x86_64-native-linuxapp-icc/app/testbbdev \
+    -e="--vdev=baseband_turbo_sw" -t 120 -c offload latency \
+    -v ./test_vectors/turbo_enc_c1_k40_r0_e1196_rm.data \
+    ./test_vectors/turbo_dec_c1_k40_r0_e17280_sbd_negllr.data -n 64 -l 16 -b 8 32
+
+Compare the results.
+
+Test case 9: Scrum all tests and all vector files
+=================================================
+
+It runs all tests and all vector files::
+
+    ./test-bbdev.py -e="--vdev=baseband_turbo_sw" \
+    -v ./test_vectors/turbo_enc_c1_k40_r0_e1196_rm.data
+
+Then go through all the .date files.
