2018-06-20acl-plugin: acl-as-a-service: VPP-1248: fix the error if exports.h included ↵Andrew Yourtchenko1-11/+23
in more than one C file Including the exports.h from multiple .c files belonging to a single plugin results in an error. Rework the approach to require the table of function pointers to be filled in by the initialization function. Since the inline functions are compiled in the "caller" context, there is no knowledge about the acl_main structure used by the ACL plugin. To help with that, the signature of inline functions is slightly different, taking the p_acl_main pointer as the first parameter. That pointer is filled into the .p_acl_main field of the method table during the initialization - since the calling of non-inline variants would have required filling the method table, this should give minimal headaches during the use and switch between the two methods.

2018-03-22acl-plugin: implement ACL lookup contexts for "ACL as a service" use by ↵Andrew Yourtchenko1-0/+113
other plugins This code implements the functionality required for other plugins wishing to perform ACL lookups in the contexts of their choice, rather than only in the context of the interface in/out. The lookups are the stateless ACLs - there is no concept of "direction" within the context, hence no concept of "connection" either. The plugins need to include the The file acl_lookup_context.md has more info. Change-Id: I91ba97428cc92b24d1517e808dc2fd8e56ea2f8d Signed-off-by: Andrew Yourtchenko <ayourtch@gmail.com>
