Repair vlib API socket server
- Teach vpp_api_test to send/receive API messages over sockets - Add memfd-based shared memory - Add api messages to create memfd-based shared memory segments - vpp_api_test supports both socket and shared memory segment connections - vpp_api_test pivot from socket to shared memory API messaging - add socket client support to libvlibclient.so - dead client reaper sends ping messages, container-friendly - dead client reaper falls back to kill (<pid>, 0) live checking if e.g. a python app goes silent for tens of seconds - handle ping messages in python client support code - teach show api ring about pairwise shared-memory segments - fix ip probing of already resolved destinations (VPP-998) We'll need this work to implement proper host-stack client isolation Change-Id: Ic23b65f75c854d0393d9a2e9d6b122a9551be769 Signed-off-by: Dave Barach <dave@barachs.net> Signed-off-by: Dave Wallace <dwallacelf@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Florin Coras <fcoras@cisco.com>
