[V3] ethdev: add dev configured flag
Checks
Commit Message
Currently, if dev_configure is not called or fails to be called, users
can still call dev_start successfully. So it is necessary to have a flag
which indicates whether the device is configured, to control whether
dev_start can be called and eliminate dependency on user invocation order.
The flag stored in "struct rte_eth_dev_data" is more reasonable than
"enum rte_eth_dev_state". "enum rte_eth_dev_state" is private to the
primary and secondary processes, and can be independently controlled.
However, the secondary process does not make resource allocations and
does not call dev_configure(). These are done by the primary process
and can be obtained or used by the secondary process. So this patch
adds a "dev_configured" flag in "rte_eth_dev_data", like "dev_started".

v2 -> v3:
- move "dev->data->dev_configured = 1" to the front of the trace.
v1 -> v2:
- adjusting the description of patch.

As explained in the thread, I added a rather "large" ABI exception
rule so that we can merge this patch.
+; Ignore all changes to rte_eth_dev_data
+; Note: we only cared about dev_configured bit addition, but libabigail
+; seems to wrongly compute bitfields offset.
+; https://sourceware.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=28060
+[suppress_type]
+ name = rte_eth_dev_data
*Reminder to ethdev maintainers*: with this exception, we have no
check on rte_eth_dev_data struct changes until 21.11.
Applied, thanks.
