[dpdk-dev] [PATCH v9 0/8] Enhancements for PMD power management

[Anatoly Burakov <anatoly.burakov@intel.com>]

This patchset introduces several changes related to PMD power management:

- Changed monitoring intrinsics to use callbacks as a comparison function, based
  on previous patchset [1] but incorporating feedback [2] - this hopefully will
  make it possible to add support for .get_monitor_addr in virtio
- Add a new intrinsic to monitor multiple addresses, based on RTM instruction
  set and the TPAUSE instruction
- Add support for PMD power management on multiple queues, as well as all
  accompanying infrastructure and example apps changes

v9:
- Added all missing Acks and Tests
- Added a new commit with NIC features
- Addressed minor issues raised in review

v8:
- Fixed checkpatch issue
- Added comment explaining empty poll handling (Konstantin)

v7:
- Fixed various bugs

v6:
- Improved the algorithm for multi-queue sleep
- Fixed segfault and addressed other feedback

v5:
- Removed "power save queue" API and replaced with mechanism suggested by
  Konstantin
- Addressed other feedback

v4:
- Replaced raw number with a macro
- Fixed all the bugs found by Konstantin
- Some other minor corrections

v3:
- Moved some doc updates to NIC features list

v2:
- Changed check inversion to callbacks
- Addressed feedback from Konstantin
- Added doc updates where necessary
