/**
 * @file
 * RTE Mbuf dynamic fields and flags
 *
 * Many DPDK features require to store data inside the mbuf. As the room
 * in mbuf structure is limited, it is not possible to have a field for
 * each feature. Also, changing fields in the mbuf structure can break
 * the API or ABI.
 *
 * This module addresses this issue, by enabling the dynamic
 * registration of fields or flags:
 *
 * - a dynamic field is a named area in the rte_mbuf structure, with a
 *   given size (>= 1 byte) and alignment constraint.
 * - a dynamic flag is a named bit in the rte_mbuf structure, stored
 *   in mbuf->ol_flags.
 *
 * The placement of the field or flag can be automatic, in this case the
 * zones that have the smallest size and alignment constraint are
 * selected in priority. Else, a specific field offset or flag bit
 * number can be requested through the API.
 *
 * The typical use case is when a specific offload feature requires to
 * register a dedicated offload field in the mbuf structure, and adding
 * a static field or flag is not justified.
 *
 * Example of use:
 *
 * - A rte_mbuf_dynfield structure is defined, containing the parameters
 *   of the dynamic field to be registered:
 *   const struct rte_mbuf_dynfield rte_dynfield_my_feature = { ... };
 * - The application initializes the PMD, and asks for this feature
 *   at port initialization by passing DEV_RX_OFFLOAD_MY_FEATURE in
 *   rxconf. This will make the PMD to register the field by calling
 *   rte_mbuf_dynfield_register(&rte_dynfield_my_feature). The PMD
 *   stores the returned offset.
 * - The application that uses the offload feature also registers
 *   the field to retrieve the same offset.
 * - When the PMD receives a packet, it can set the field:
 *   *RTE_MBUF_DYNFIELD(m, offset, <type *>) = value;
 * - In the main loop, the application can retrieve the value with
 *   the same macro.
 *
 * To avoid wasting space, the dynamic fields or flags must only be
 * reserved on demand, when an application asks for the related feature.
 *
 * The registration can be done at any moment, but it is not possible
 * to unregister fields or flags for now.
 *
 * A dynamic field can be reserved and used by an application only.
 * It can for instance be a packet mark.
 *
 * To avoid namespace collisions, the dynamic mbuf field or flag names
 * have to be chosen with care. It is advised to use the same
 * conventions than function names in dpdk:
 * - "rte_mbuf_dynfield_<name>" if defined in mbuf library
 * - "rte_<libname>_dynfield_<name>" if defined in another library
 * - "rte_net_<pmd>_dynfield_<name>" if defined in a in PMD
 * - any name that does not start with "rte_" in an application
