Setting and using the SOURCE_DATE_EPOCH variable takes
care of most of the magic necessary.
https://reproducible-builds.org/docs/source-date-epoch/
vpp-ext-deps packages after this change is being built with that
date set to date of the last modification of the
subtree (similar logic to deriving the "number" for
the package version)
For the rest of the packages, pinning the following
three variables should result in bit-identical
artifacts across multiple runs:
export SOURCE_DATE_EPOCH=$(date +%s)
export VPP_BUILD_HOST="buildhost"
export VPP_BUILD_USER="builduser"
Add a blurb in the docs describing this new functionality.

For the reasons of modularity and security, it is useful
to have various functionality split into processes different from VPP.
However, this approach presents the challenges of managing those processes,
and is markedly different from simply running everything within VPP process.
This plugin is an experiment in having the VPP itself start off a monitor
process which in turn starts the child processes, and restarts them if they
quit.
If the VPP process ceases to exist, the monitor process terminates all
the descendant processes and quits itself.
This allows to preserve the "single entity to manage" approach of
simply running a barebones VPP.
An example of running it:
export DPDK_CONFIG=""
export DISABLED_PLUGINS=dpdk
export EXTRA_VPP_CONFIG="fateshare { monitor ./build-root/install-vpp_debug-native/vpp/bin/vpp_fateshare_monitor command ./test1 }"

This is the initial commit of a NPTv6 (RFC6296) implementation for VPP.
It's restricted to a single internal to external binding and runs

Several kinds of policers are implemented in VPP.

Additionally, the CLI command's help has been

This patch introduces DMA infrastructure into vlib. This is well known
that large amount of memory movements will drain core resource. Nowadays
more and more hardware accelerators were designed out for freeing core
from this burden. Meanwhile some restrictions still remained when
utilizing hardware accelerators, e.g. cross numa throughput will have a
significant drop compared to same node. Normally the number of hardware
accelerator instances will less than cores number, not to mention that
applications number will even beyond the number of cores. Some hardware
may support share virtual address with cores, while others are not.
Here we introduce new DMA infrastructure which can fulfill the
requirements of vpp applications like session and memif and in the
meantime dealing with hardware limitations.
Here is some design backgrounds:
Backend is the abstract of resource which allocated from DMA device
and can do some basic operations like configuration, DMA copy and
result query.
Config is the abstract of application DMA requirement. Application
need to request an unique config index from DMA infrastructure. This
unique config index is associated with backend resource. Two options
cpu fallback and barrier before last can be specified in config.
DMA transfer will be performed by CPU when backend is busy if cpu
fallback option is enabled. DMA transfer callback will be in order
if barrier before last option is enabled.
We constructs all the stuffs that DMA transfer request needed into
DMA batch. It contains the pattern of DMA descriptors and function
pointers for submission and callback. One DMA transfer request need
multiple times batch update and one time batch submission.
DMA backends will assigned to config's workers threads equally. Lock
will be used for thread-safety if same backends assigned to multiple
threads. Backend node will check all the pending requests in worker
thread and do callback with the pointer of DMA batch if transfer
completed. Application can utilize cookie in DMA batch for selves
usage.
DMA architecture:
+----------+ +----------+ +----------+ +----------+
| Config1 | | Config2 | | Config1 | | Config2 |
+----------+ +----------+ +----------+ +----------+
|| || || ||
+-------------------------+ +-------------------------+
| DMA polling thread A | | DMA polling thread B |
+-------------------------+ +-------------------------+

+----------+ +----------+
| Backend1 | | Backend2 |

This patch makes the `make docs` directive incremental
avoiding re-running the siphon when the source hasn't
changed, and leveraging sphinx internal cache.
It adds a `make rebuild-docs` directive for cases where
this caching logic might break, e.g. in CI.
The virtualenv doesn't also get recreated on each build,
which might be enough when writing docs, provided
automated process leverage its rebuild counterpart.

Drop pycodestyle for code style checking in favor of black. Black is
much faster, stable PEP8 compliant code style checker offering also
automatic formatting. It aims to be very stable and produce smallest
diffs. It's used by many small and big projects.
Running checkstyle with black takes a few seconds with a terse output.
Thus, test-checkstyle-diff is no longer necessary.
Expand scope of checkstyle to all python files in the repo, replacing
test-checkstyle with checkstyle-python.
Also, fixstyle-python is now available for automatic style formatting.
Note: python virtualenv has been consolidated in test/Makefile,
test/requirements*.txt which will eventually be moved to a central
location. This is required to simply the automated generation of
docker executor images in the CI.
