cover remove legacy Packet Framework API

The legacy Packet Framework APIs were announced for removal in the 24.11 release but the removal never happened:

* pipeline: The pipeline library legacy API (functions rte_pipeline_*)
* table: The table library legacy API (functions rte_table_*)
* port: The port library legacy API (functions rte_port_*)

Do the removal now, in the 26.11 ABI window. The SWX API in the same libraries (rte_swx_*) is unaffected and remains the Packet Framework API. The softnic driver and the pipeline example already use only the SWX API.

The applications built on the legacy API (test-pipeline, ip_pipeline) and the unit tests are removed first, then the legacy half of each library, pipeline before table before port to follow the dependency chain. Library dependencies and the programmer's guide are trimmed accordingly.

Follow-up candidates, kept out of this series: the stale comments in lib/ethdev/ethdev_trace.h still refer to examples/ip_pipeline, and struct rte_pipeline_acl_rule in the removed rte_table_acl.c was only a local name.

Stephen Hemminger (6):
app/test: remove packet framework tests
app/test-pipeline: remove application
examples/ip_pipeline: remove example
pipeline: remove legacy API
table: remove legacy API
port: remove legacy API

RFC 1/6 app/test: remove packet framework tests

The legacy packet framework libraries (port, table, pipeline) are being removed, so remove the unit tests exercising them.

In reply to Stephen Hemminger

The test-pipeline application is built on the legacy pipeline library API (rte_pipeline_*), which was announced for removal in the 24.11 release. Remove it before removing the library.

RFC 3/6 examples/ip_pipeline: remove example

In reply to Stephen Hemminger

The ip_pipeline example is built on the legacy pipeline library API (rte_pipeline_*) and the associated port and table action APIs, which were announced for removal in the 24.11 release. The pipeline example covers the SWX pipeline API.

RFC 4/6 pipeline: remove legacy API

In reply to Stephen Hemminger

Remove the legacy pipeline API (rte_pipeline_*) together with the port and table action APIs built on top of it, as announced for removal in the 24.11 release. The SWX pipeline API remains.

The sched dependency was only used by the table action API, so drop it.

RFC 5/6 table: remove legacy API

In reply to Stephen Hemminger

Remove the legacy table library API (rte_table_*) as announced for removal in the 24.11 release. The SWX table API remains.

The lpm and port dependencies were only used by the legacy API, so drop them. The hash and acl dependencies are still needed by the SWX exact match and wildcard match tables.

RFC 6/6 port: remove legacy API

In reply to Stephen Hemminger

Remove the legacy port library API (rte_port_*) as announced for removal in the 24.11 release. The SWX port API remains.

The sched, ip_frag, cryptodev and eventdev dependencies were only used by the legacy port types, so drop them. The pcap dependency is kept for the SWX source/sink port.

The legacy Packet Framework APIs were announced for removal in the 24.11 release but the removal never happened:

* pipeline: The pipeline library legacy API (functions rte_pipeline_*)
* table: The table library legacy API (functions rte_table_*)
* port: The port library legacy API (functions rte_port_*)

The legacy Packet Framework APIs were announced for removal in the 24.11 release but the removal never happened:

* pipeline: The pipeline library legacy API (functions rte_pipeline_*)
* table: The table library legacy API (functions rte_table_*)
* port: The port library legacy API (functions rte_port_*)

Sorry, it seems this series (and only this series iiuc) fell through the cracks while patchwork and other dpdk.org services were under heavy load...
Could you resend?

I suspect there maybe feedbacks, will send again on Monday.

v2 cover remove legacy packet framework

In reply to Stephen Hemminger

The legacy Packet Framework APIs were announced for removal in the 24.11 release but the removal never happened:

* pipeline: The pipeline library legacy API (functions rte_pipeline_*)
* table: The table library legacy API (functions rte_table_*)
* port: The port library legacy API (functions rte_port_*)

RFC v2 2/6 app/test-pipeline: remove application

In reply to Stephen Hemminger

The test-pipeline application is built on the legacy pipeline library API (rte_pipeline_*), which was announced for removal in the 24.11 release. Remove it before removing the library.

RFC v2 4/6 pipeline: remove legacy API

In reply to Stephen Hemminger

Remove the legacy pipeline API (rte_pipeline_*) together with the port and table action APIs built on top of it, as announced for removal in the 24.11 release. The SWX pipeline API remains.

The sched dependency was only used by the table action API, so drop it.

RFC v2 5/6 table: remove legacy API

In reply to Stephen Hemminger

Remove the legacy table library API (rte_table_*) as announced for removal in the 24.11 release. The SWX table API remains.

The lpm and port dependencies were only used by the legacy API, so drop them. The hash and acl dependencies are still needed by the SWX exact match and wildcard match tables.

RFC v2 6/6 port: remove legacy API

In reply to Stephen Hemminger

Remove the legacy port library API (rte_port_*) as announced for removal in the 24.11 release. The SWX port API remains.

The sched, ip_frag, cryptodev and eventdev dependencies were only used by the legacy port types, so drop them. The pcap dependency is kept for the SWX source/sink port.
