This patch was prepared with a "brutal" commandline:

Then inclusion of rte_bitops.h was added were necessary.

examples/eventdev: move ethdev stop to the end

Move eth stop code from "signal_handler" function to the end of "main"
function. There are two reasons for this:

First, this improves code maintenance

examples/eventdev: move ethdev stop to the end

Move eth stop code from "signal_handler" function to the end of "main"
function. There are two reasons for this:

First, this improves code maintenance and makes code look simple and
clear. Based on this change, after receiving the interrupt signal,
"fdata->done" is set as 1. Then the main thread will wait all worker
lcores to jump out of the loop. Finally, the main thread will stop and
then close eth dev port.

Second, for older version, the main thread first stops eth dev port and
then waits the end of worker lcore. This may cause errors because it may
stop the eth dev port which worker lcores are using. This moving change
can fix this by waiting all worker threads to exit and then stop the
eth dev port.

In the meanwhile, remove wmb in signal_handler.

This is because when the main lcore receive the stop signal, it stores 1
into fdata->done. And then the worker lcores load "fdata->done" and jump
out of the loop to stop running. Nothing should be stored after updating
fdata->done, so the wmb is unnecessary.

examples/eventdev: add info output for main core

When the main core is set as tx/rx/sched/worker core, it also needs to
print some information to show this. Thus, add info output for the main
core, and add a "dump" function to print core information for the sake
of code simplicity and easy maintenance.

In the meanwhile, fix the count error. For the variable "worker_idx", it
should be incremented when the core is set as worker core. However, when
the main core is set as rx/tx/sched core, the worker_idx is also
incremented. Though this error may not have a substantial impact due to
that the main core is the last launched core, but it should be corrected
from the perspective of code correctness.

examples/eventdev: check CPU core enabling

In the case that the cores are isolated, if "-l" or "-c" parameter is not
added, the cores will not be enabled and can not launch worker function
correctly. In the meanwhile, no error information is reported.

For example:
totally CPUs:16
isolated CPUs:1-8
command: sudo gdb -args ./dpdk-eventdev_pipeline --vdev event_sw0 \
-- -r1 -t1 -e4 -w F00 -s4 -n0 -c32 -W1000 -D

cores information:
rte_config->lcore_role = {ROLE_RTE, ROLE_OFF, ROLE_OFF, ROLE_OFF,
ROLE_OFF, ROLE_OFF, ROLE_OFF, ROLE_OFF,
ROLE_OFF, ROLE_RTE, ROLE_RTE, ROLE_RTE,
ROLE_RTE, ROLE_RTE, ROLE_RTE, ROLE_RTE}

output information:
...
[main()] lcore 9 executing worker, using eventdev port 0
[main()] lcore 10 executing worker, using eventdev port 1
[main()] lcore 11 executing worker, using eventdev port 2

This is because "RTE_LCORE_FOREACH_WORKER" chooses the enabled core. In
the case that the cores are isolated, "the lcore_role" flag of isolated
cores are set as "ROLE_OFF" by default(not enabled). So if we choose
these isolated cores as workers, "RTE_LCORE_FOREACH_WORKER" will ignore
these cores and not launch worker functions on them.

To fix this, add "-l" parameters to doc and add lcore enabled check.

examples/eventdev: fix crash on exit

This commit fixes a segfault on exit by using Ctrl^C if the master lcore
was also being used as a worker core. The root cause of the issue was
that the interrupt handler was cleaning up resources such as the ethdev
and eventdev ports, and once the interrupt handler would return, that
thread would continue working as an eventdev worker, and dereference the
memory which just had free() called on it.

Fixed by moving the cleanup code from the interrupt handler to the
cleanup stage of main(), which the master thread will execute once
it has returned from its worker() functionality.
