+ * RTE Event Device API
+ *
+ * In a polling model, lcores poll ethdev ports and associated rx queues
+ * directly to look for packet. In an event driven model, by contrast, lcores
+ * call the scheduler that selects packets for them based on programmer
+ * specified criteria. Eventdev library adds support for event driven
+ * programming model, which offer applications automatic multicore scaling,
+ * dynamic load balancing, pipelining, packet ingress order maintenance and
+ * synchronization services to simplify application packet processing.
+ *
+ * The Event Device API is composed of two parts:
+ *
+ * - The application-oriented Event API that includes functions to setup
+ *   an event device (configure it, setup its queues, ports and start it), to
+ *   establish the link between queues to port and to receive events, and so on.
+ *
+ * - The driver-oriented Event API that exports a function allowing
+ *   an event poll Mode Driver (PMD) to simultaneously register itself as
+ *   an event device driver.
+ *
+ * Event device components:

+ *
+ * Event device: A hardware or software-based event scheduler.
+ *
+ * Event: A unit of scheduling that encapsulates a packet or other datatype
+ * like SW generated event from the CPU, Crypto work completion notification,
+ * Timer expiry event notification etc as well as metadata.
+ * The metadata includes flow ID, scheduling type, event priority, event_type,
+ * sub_event_type etc.
+ *
+ * Event queue: A queue containing events that are scheduled by the event dev.
+ * An event queue contains events of different flows associated with scheduling
+ * types, such as atomic, ordered, or parallel.
+ *
+ * Event port: An application's interface into the event dev for enqueue and
+ * dequeue operations. Each event port can be linked with one or more
+ * event queues for dequeue operations.
+ *
+ * By default, all the functions of the Event Device API exported by a PMD
+ * are lock-free functions which assume to not be invoked in parallel on
+ * different logical cores to work on the same target object. For instance,
+ * the dequeue function of a PMD cannot be invoked in parallel on two logical
+ * cores to operates on same  event port. Of course, this function
+ * can be invoked in parallel by different logical cores on different ports.
+ * It is the responsibility of the upper level application to enforce this rule.
+ *
+ * In all functions of the Event API, the Event device is
+ * designated by an integer >= 0 named the device identifier *dev_id*
+ *
+ * At the Event driver level, Event devices are represented by a generic
+ * data structure of type *rte_event_dev*.
+ *
+ * Event devices are dynamically registered during the PCI/SoC device probing
+ * phase performed at EAL initialization time.
+ * When an Event device is being probed, a *rte_event_dev* structure and
+ * a new device identifier are allocated for that device. Then, the
+ * event_dev_init() function supplied by the Event driver matching the probed
+ * device is invoked to properly initialize the device.
+ *
+ * The role of the device init function consists of resetting the hardware or
+ * software event driver implementations.
+ *
+ * If the device init operation is successful, the correspondence between
+ * the device identifier assigned to the new device and its associated
+ * *rte_event_dev* structure is effectively registered.
+ * Otherwise, both the *rte_event_dev* structure and the device identifier are
+ * freed.
+ *
+ * The functions exported by the application Event API to setup a device
+ * designated by its device identifier must be invoked in the following order:
+ *     - rte_event_dev_configure()
+ *     - rte_event_queue_setup()
+ *     - rte_event_port_setup()
+ *     - rte_event_port_link()
+ *     - rte_event_dev_start()
+ *
+ * Then, the application can invoke, in any order, the functions
+ * exported by the Event API to schedule events, dequeue events, enqueue events,
+ * change event queue(s) to event port [un]link establishment and so on.
+ *
+ * Application may use rte_event_[queue/port]_default_conf_get() to get the
+ * default configuration to set up an event queue or event port by
+ * overriding few default values.
+ *
+ * If the application wants to change the configuration (i.e. call
+ * rte_event_dev_configure(), rte_event_queue_setup(), or
+ * rte_event_port_setup()), it must call rte_event_dev_stop() first to stop the
+ * device and then do the reconfiguration before calling rte_event_dev_start()
+ * again. The schedule, enqueue and dequeue functions should not be invoked
+ * when the device is stopped.
+ *
+ * Finally, an application can close an Event device by invoking the
+ * rte_event_dev_close() function.
+ *
+ * Each function of the application Event API invokes a specific function
+ * of the PMD that controls the target device designated by its device
+ * identifier.
+ *
+ * For this purpose, all device-specific functions of an Event driver are
+ * supplied through a set of pointers contained in a generic structure of type
+ * *event_dev_ops*.
+ * The address of the *event_dev_ops* structure is stored in the *rte_event_dev*
+ * structure by the device init function of the Event driver, which is
+ * invoked during the PCI/SoC device probing phase, as explained earlier.
+ *
+ * In other words, each function of the Event API simply retrieves the
+ * *rte_event_dev* structure associated with the device identifier and
+ * performs an indirect invocation of the corresponding driver function
+ * supplied in the *event_dev_ops* structure of the *rte_event_dev* structure.
+ *
+ * For performance reasons, the address of the fast-path functions of the
+ * Event driver is not contained in the *event_dev_ops* structure.
+ * Instead, they are directly stored at the beginning of the *rte_event_dev*
+ * structure to avoid an extra indirect memory access during their invocation.
+ *
+ * RTE event device drivers do not use interrupts for enqueue or dequeue
+ * operation. Instead, Event drivers export Poll-Mode enqueue and dequeue
+ * functions to applications.
+ *
+ * An event driven based application has following typical workflow on fastpath:
+ * \code{.c}
+ *	while (1) {
+ *
+ *		rte_event_schedule(dev_id);
+ *
+ *		rte_event_dequeue(...);
+ *
+ *		(event processing)
+ *
+ *		rte_event_enqueue(...);
+ *	}
+ * \endcode
+ *
+ * The events are injected to event device through *enqueue* operation by
+ * event producers in the system. The typical event producers are ethdev
+ * subsystem for generating packet events, CPU(SW) for generating events based
+ * on different stages of application processing, cryptodev for generating
+ * crypto work completion notification etc
+ *
+ * The *dequeue* operation gets one or more events from the event ports.
+ * The application process the events and send to downstream event queue through
+ * rte_event_enqueue_burst() if it is an intermediate stage of event processing,
+ * on the final stage, the application may send to different subsystem like
+ * ethdev to send the packet/event on the wire using ethdev
+ * rte_eth_tx_burst() API.
+ *
+ * The point at which events are scheduled to ports depends on the device.
+ * For hardware devices, scheduling occurs asynchronously without any software
+ * intervention. Software schedulers can either be distributed
+ * (each worker thread schedules events to its own port) or centralized
+ * (a dedicated thread schedules to all ports). Distributed software schedulers
+ * perform the scheduling in rte_event_dequeue_burst(), whereas centralized
+ * scheduler logic is located in rte_event_schedule().
+ * The RTE_EVENT_DEV_CAP_DISTRIBUTED_SCHED capability flag is not set
+ * indicates the device is centralized and thus needs a dedicated scheduling
+ * thread that repeatedly calls rte_event_schedule().
