Initial VES for DANOS vRouter

1. Create vpp_measurement_reporter that use DANOS configd query
   to retrieve statistics and libevel to transmit
2. Copy VES evel library to build a debian package under
   vpp_measurement_report
3. Add debian files to create a vpp_measurement_reporter + libevel
   debian package
4. Add debian install and systemctl start files
5. Add instruction to build VES reporter debian package (that will
   include libevel.so)
6. Add instructions to build DANOS ISO with VES reporter debian
   package and creating glance image

+ * the foreground processing to communicate with the background event handling
+ * processing in an orderly fashion.  At present the only use is to initiate an
+ * orderly shutdown of the Event Handler thread.

+# Quick Start Guide {#quickstart}
+
+# Introduction {#qs_intro}
+
+This Quick-Start section describes how to:
+
+  *  Install and compile the supplied library code
+  *  Integrate an existing project to use the EVEL library
+  
+# Installation {#qs_install}
+
+The library is supplied as a source-code compressed-tar file. It is 
+straightforward to install and build to integrate with an existing or new
+development project.
+
+## Unpack the Source Code {#qs_unpack}
+
+The file should unpacked into your development environment:
+```
+$ mkdir evel
+$ cd evel
+$ tar zxvf evel-library-package.tgz
+```
+### Satisfy Dependencies {#qs_depend}
+
+Note that all commands in this section are based on CentOS package management
+tools and you may need to substitute the appropriate tools/packages for your
+distribution, for example `apt-get` for Ubuntu.
+
+Ensure that GCC development tools are available.
+
+```
+$ sudo yum install gcc
+```
+Additionally, the library has a dependency on the cURL library, so you'll need 
+the development tools for libCurl installed. (At runtime, only the runtime 
+library is required, of course.)
+
+```
+$ sudo yum install libcurl-devel
+```
+If you wish to make the project documentation, then Doxygen and Graphviz are
+required. (Again, this is only in the development environment, not the runtime 
+environment!)
+
+```
+$ sudo yum install doxygen graphviz
+```
+
+Note that some distributions have quite old versions of Doxygen by default and 
+it may be necessary to install a later version to use all the features.
+
+If you want to build PDFs from the LaTeX you will need a texlive install.
+
+```
+$ sudo yum install texlive
+```
+
+### Test Build {#qs_build}
+Make sure that the library makes cleanly:
+
+```
+$ cd bldjobs
+$ make
+Making dependency file evel_unit.d for evel_unit.c
+Making dependency file evel_test_control.d for evel_test_control.c

+$
+``` 
+You should now be able to run the demo CLI application.  Since it will want to
+dynamically link to the library that you've just made, you will need to set 
+your `LD_LIBRARY_PATH` appropriately first. Make sure that you specify
+your actual directory paths correctly in the following:
+
+```
+$ export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=$LD_LIBRARY_PATH:/home/centos/evel/libs/x86_64
+$ ../output/x86_64/evel_demo
+evel_demo [--help]
+          --fqdn <domain>
+          --port <port_number>
+          [--path <path>]
+          [--topic <topic>]
+          [--username <username>]
+          [--password <password>]
+          [--https]
+          [--cycles <cycles>]
+          [--nothrott]
+
+Demonstrate use of the ECOMP Vendor Event Listener API.
+
+  -h         Display this usage message.
+  --help
+
+  -f         The FQDN or IP address to the RESTful API.
+  --fqdn
+
+  -n         The port number the RESTful API.
+  --port
+
+  -p         The optional path prefix to the RESTful API.
+  --path
+
+  -t         The optional topic part of the RESTful API.
+  --topic
+
+  -u         The optional username for basic authentication of requests.
+  --username
+
+  -w         The optional password for basic authentication of requests.
+  --password
+
+  -s         Use HTTPS rather than HTTP for the transport.
+  --https
+
+  -c         Loop <cycles> times round the main loop.  Default = 1.
+  --cycles
+
+  -v         Generate much chattier logs.
+  --verbose
+
+  -x         Exclude throttling commands from demonstration.
+  --nothrott
+
+$
+```
+Assuming that all worked as expected, you are ready to start integrating with 
+your application. It probably makes sense to make the LD_LIBRARY_PATH change
+above permanent by incorporating it into your `.bash_profile` file.
+
+### Project Documentation {#qs_build_docs}
+
+The source comes with its own documentation included. The documentation can be
+built using the `docs` target in the Makefile. By default this builds HTML
+and LaTeX documentation, the latter being used to prepare PDFs.
+
+To make the documentation:
+```
+$ cd bldjobs
+$ make docs
+Cleaning docs...
+Making Doxygen documentation
+$ 
+```
+
+There is a make target that is intended to install the documentation on a
+"team server" - it will need adaptation for your team's environment - see the 
+`docs_install` target in the Makefile:
+
+```
+$ make docs_install
+Cleaning docs...
+Making Doxygen documentation
+Copying docs to team web-server...
+Enter passphrase for key '/data/home/.ssh/id_rsa':
+annotated.html                           100% 8088     7.9KB/s   00:00    
+arrowdown.png                            100%  246     0.2KB/s   00:00    
+arrowright.png                           100%  229     0.2KB/s   00:00    
+  ...
+$
+```
+
+# Project Integration {#qs_integrate}
+
+There are two key steps to the integration which have to be undertaken:
+
+  * Initialization/Termination of the library.
+  * Creation & posting of individual events.
+  
+Additionally, it may be necessary to consider changes to the EVEL library's
+source code if assumptions made by the library are either not satisfied or 
+inconvenient.  In particular:
+
+  * If the project already uses libcurl then the global initialization of the
+    library should be removed from the _EVEL Library_.
+  * The _EVEL Library_ uses `syslog` for event logging. If the project uses a
+    different event logging process, then EVEL's event logging macros should be
+    rewritten appropriately.
+
+These steps are considered in the [Normal Use](@ref qs_normal_use) and 
+[EVEL Adaptation](@ref qs_adaptation) sections below.
+
+## Normal Use         {#qs_normal_use}
+
+The _EVEL Library_ should be integrated with your project at a per-process 
+level: each process is an independent client of the ECOMP Vendor Event Listener
+API.
+
+### Initialization {#qs_initialize}
+
+The _EVEL Library_ should be initialized before the process becomes 
+multi-threaded. This constraint arises from the use of libcurl which imposes 
+the constraint that initialization occurs before the system is multi-threaded.
+This is described in more detail in the libcurl documentation for the
+[curl_global_init](https://curl.haxx.se/libcurl/c/curl_global_init.html) 
+function.
+
+Initialization stores configuration of the Vendor Event Listener API's details,
+such as the FQDN or IP address of the service, so the initializing process must
+have either extracted this information from its configuration or have this 
+information "hard-wired" into the application, so that it is available at the 
+point the `evel_initialize()` function is called:
+
+```C
+  #include "evel.h"
+  ...
+  if (evel_initialize(api_fqdn,
+                      api_port,
+                      api_path,
+                      api_topic,
+                      api_secure,
+                      "Alice",
+                      "This isn't very secure!",
+                      EVEL_SOURCE_VIRTUAL_MACHINE,
+                      "EVEL demo client",
+                      verbose_mode))
+  {
+    fprintf(stderr, "Failed to initialize the EVEL library!!!");
+    exit(-1);
+  }
+  ...
+```
+Once initialization has occurred successfully, the application may raise events
+and may also use the logging functions such as EVEL_INFO().
+
+Initialization is entirely local (there is no interaction with the service) so
+it is very unlikely to fail, unless the application environment is seriously 
+degraded.
+
+### Event Generation {#qs_generate}
+
+Generating events is a two stage process:
+
+  1.  Firstly, the _EVEL Library_ is called to allocate an event of the correct
+      type. 
+    * If this is successful, the caller is given a pointer to the event.
+    * All mandatory fields on the event are provided to this factory function
+      and are thereafter immutable.
+    * The application may add any necessary optional fields to the event, using
+      the pointer previously returned.
+  2.  The event is sent to the JSON API using the evel_post_event() function.
+    * At this point, the application relinquishes all responsibility for the 
+      event:
+      * It will be posted to the JSON API, if possible.
+      * Whether or not the posting is successful, the memory used will be 
+        freed.
+        
+In practice this looks like:
+
+```C
+  #include "evel.h"
+  ...
+
+  /***************************************************************************/
+  /* Create a new Fault object, setting mandatory fields as we do so...      */
+  /***************************************************************************/
+  fault = evel_new_fault("My alarm condition",
+                         "It broke very badly",
+                         EVEL_PRIORITY_NORMAL,
+                         EVEL_SEVERITY_MAJOR);
+  if (fault != NULL)
+  {
+    /*************************************************************************/
+    /* We have a Fault object - add some optional fields to it...            */
+    /*************************************************************************/
+    evel_fault_type_set(fault, "Bad things happen...");
+    evel_fault_interface_set(fault, "My Interface Card");
+    evel_fault_addl_info_add(fault, "name1", "value1");
+    evel_fault_addl_info_add(fault, "name2", "value2");
+    
+    /*************************************************************************/
+    /* Finally, post the Fault.  In practice this will only ever fail if     */
+    /* local ring-buffer is full because of event overload.                  */
+    /*************************************************************************/
+    evel_rc = evel_post_event((EVENT_HEADER *)fault);
+    if (evel_rc != EVEL_SUCCESS)
+    {
+      EVEL_ERROR("Post failed %d (%s)", evel_rc, evel_error_string());
+    }
+  }
+  ...
+```
+### Event Types {#qs_event_types}
+
+The _EVEL Library_ supports the following types of events:
+
+  1.  Faults
+  
+      These represent the **fault** domain in the event schema.
+      
+  2.  Measurements
+  
+      These represent the **measurementsForVfScaling** domain in the event
+      schema.
+      
+  3.  Reports
+  
+      This is an experimental type, designed to allow VNFs to report 
+      application-level statistics unencumbered with platform measurements.
+      The formal AT&T schema has been updated to include this experimental
+      type as **measurementsForVfReporting**. 
+
+  4.  Mobile Flow
+
+      These represent the **mobileFlow** domain in the event schema.
+
+  5.  Other
+
+      These represent the **other** domain in the event schema.
+
+  6.  Service Events
+
+      These represent the **serviceEvents** domain in the event schema.
+
+  7.  Signaling
+
+      These represent the **signaling** domain in the event schema.
+
+  8.  State Change
+
+      These represent the **stateChange** domain in the event schema.
+
+  9.  Syslog
+
+      These represent the **syslog** domain in the event schema.
+
+### Throttling {#qs_throttling}
+
+The _EVEL library_ supports the following command types as defined in the JSON API:
+
+  1.  commandType: throttlingSpecification
+
+    This is handled internally by the EVEL library, which stores the provided
+    throttling specification internally and applies it to all subsequent events.
+
+  2. commandType: provideThrottlingState
+
+    This is handled internally by the EVEL library, which returns the current
+    throttling specification for each domain.
+
+  3. commandType: measurementIntervalChange
+
+    This is handled by the EVEL library, which makes the latest measurement
+    interval available via the ::evel_get_measurement_interval function.
+    The application is responsible for checking and adhering to the latest
+    provided interval.
+
+### Termination {#qs_termination}
+
+Termination of the _EVEL Library_ is swift and brutal!  Events in the buffer
+at the time are "dropped on the floor" rather than waiting for the buffer to 
+deplete first.
+
+```C
+  #include "evel.h"
+  ...
+  
+  /***************************************************************************/
+  /* Shutdown the library.                                                   */
+  /***************************************************************************/
+  evel_terminate();
+  
+  ...
+``` 
+
+## EVEL Adaptation       {#qs_adaptation}
+
+The _EVEL Library_ is relatively simple and should be easy to adapt into other
+project environments.
+
+### LibcURL Lifecycle
+
+There are two circumstances where initialization of libcurl may be required:
+
+  1.  If libcurl is used by the project already, and therefore already takes 
+      responsibility of its initialization, then the libcurl initialization and 
+      termination functions should be removed from evel_initialize() and 
+      evel_terminate() respectively.
+  2.  If the project is unable to satisfy the constraint that libcurl 
+      initialization takes place in a single-threaded environment at the point
+      that the _EVEL Library_ can be initialized (for example, if MT code is 
+      necessary to read the configuration parameters required for 
+      _EVEL Library_ initialization) then it may be necessary to extract the 
+      libcurl functions and call them separately, earlier in the program's 
+      operation.
+      
+### Event Logging
+
+The _EVEL Library_ uses `syslog` for logging.  If this is inappropriate then
+the log_debug() and log_initialize() functions should be rewritten accordingly.
+
+**Note**: it would be a really bad idea to use the _EVEL Library_ itself for this 
+logging function.

+# EVEL Library Overview {#mainpage}
+
+# Introduction
+
+The ECOMP Vendor Event Listener ("EVEL") library encapsulates the use of
+AT&T's JSON API to the collector function within the ECOMP infrastructure.
+
+As such, it provides a reference implementation of the EVEL JSON API which
+can either be directly as part of a project or can be used to inform the
+independent implementation of an equivalent binding to the API in another
+development environment.
+
+This section provides an overview of the library and how it is integrated
+into the target application.  If all you want is a set of instructions to
+get you started, the @ref quickstart "Quick Start" section is for you.  If
+you want a more in-depth understanding of the _EVEL Library_ then this section
+provides an overview and then you can read the detailed API documentation for 
+each function. The documentation for evel.h is a good starting point, since 
+that defines the public API of the _EVEL Library_.
+
+# Library Structure 
+
+The API is designed to be used on multi-process platforms where each process
+may be multi-threaded.  Each process using this library will create an
+independent HTTP client (using libcURL).  Each process will have a single
+thread running the HTTP client but that thread receives work on a
+ring-buffer from however may threads are required to implement the function.
+
+**Note**: libcurl imposes a constraint that it is initialized before
+the process starts multi-threaded operation.
+
+# Typical Usage
+
+The library is designed to be very straightforward to use and lightweight to
+integrate into projects. The only serious external dependency is on libcURL.
+
+The supplied Makefile produces a single library **libevel.so** or
+**libevel.a** which your application needs to be linked against.
+
+Each process within the application which wants to generate events needs to
+call ::evel_initialize at the start of day (observing the above warning
+about not being MT safe at this stage.)   The initialization specifies the
+details of where the API is located.  Management of configuration is the
+responsibility of the client.
+
+Once initialized, and now MT-safe, there are factory functions to produce
+new events:
+- Faults  - ::evel_new_fault
+- Measurements - ::evel_new_measurement
+- Report - ::evel_new_report
+- State Change - ::evel_new_state_change
+- Syslog - ::evel_new_syslog
+- Other - ::evel_new_other
+- Mobile Flow - ::evel_new_mobile_flow
+
+There is also a factory function ::evel_new_mobile_gtp_flow_metrics to create
+the parameter gtp_per_flow_metrics, which is then configured and passed to the
+::evel_new_mobile_flow factory function.
+
+The event structures are initialized with mandatory fields at the point of
+creation and optional fields may be added thereafter.  Once set, values in
+the structures are immutable.
+
+Once the event is prepared, it may be posted, using ::evel_post_event,  at
+which point the calling thread relinquishes all responsibility for the
+event.  It will be freed once successfully or unsuccessfully posted to the
+API.  If, for any reason, you change your mind and don't want to post a
+created event, it must be destroyed with ::evel_free_event.
+
+Finally, at the end of day, the library can be terminated cleanly by calling
+::evel_terminate.
+
+## Example Code
+
+The following fragment illustrates the above usage:
+
+```C
+
+EVEL_ERR_CODES evel_initialize(const char * const fqdn,
+                               int port,
+                               const char * const bakup_fqdn,
+                               int bakup_port,
+                               const char * const path,
+                               const char * const topic,
+                               int ring_buf_size,
+                               int secure,
+                               const char * const cert_file_path,
+                               const char * const key_file_path,
+                               const char * const ca_info,
+                               const char * const ca_file_path,
+                               long verify_peer,
+                               long verify_host,
+                               const char * const username,
+                               const char * const password,
+                               const char * const bakup_username,
+                               const char * const bakup_password,
+                               const char * const source_ip,
+                               const char * const bakup_source_ip,
+                               EVEL_SOURCE_TYPES source_type,
+                               const char * const role,
+                               int verbosity
+                               )  {
+    fprintf(stderr, "Failed to initialize the EVEL library!!!");
+    exit(-1);
+  }
+
+  ...
+
+  fault = evel_new_fault("My alarm condition",
+                         "It broke very badly",
+                         EVEL_PRIORITY_NORMAL,
+                         EVEL_SEVERITY_MAJOR);
+  if (fault != NULL)
+  {
+    evel_fault_type_set(fault, "Bad things happen...");
+    evel_fault_interface_set(fault, "My Interface Card");
+    evel_fault_addl_info_add(fault, "name1", "value1");
+    evel_fault_addl_info_add(fault, "name2", "value2");
+    evel_rc = evel_post_event((EVENT_HEADER *)fault);
+    if (evel_rc != EVEL_SUCCESS)
+    {
+      EVEL_ERROR("Post failed %d (%s)", evel_rc, evel_error_string());
+    }
+  }
+
+```
+
+The public API to the library is defined in evel.h.  The internal APIs
+within library are defined in separate headers (<em>e.g.</em>
+evel_internal.h), but these should not need to be included by the code
+using the library.
+
+# Example Application
+
+A simple command-line application to generate events is provided as part of
+the source package (the above code fragment is taken from that application).
+
+The following illustrates its operation to a co-located "test-collector":
+```

+
+# Restrictions and Limitations
+
+## Constraint Validation
+
+The _EVEL Library_ has been designed to be production-safe code with the
+emphasis at this stage being in correctness of operation rather than
+raw performance.
+
+The API tries to check as much information as possible to avoid misuse and
+will **assert()** if constraints are not satisfied.  This is likely to lead
+to the rapid discovery of coding errors by programmers, but does mean that
+the application can fail abruptly if the library is misused in any way.
+
+## Performance
+
+The default Makefile avoids aggressive optimizations so that any core-files
+are easy to interpret.  Production code should use greater optimization
+levels.
+
+As described above, the HTTP client is single threaded and will run all
+transactions synchronously.  As transactions are serialized, a client that
+generates a lot of events will be paced by the round-trip time.
+
+It would be a straightforward enhancement to use the multi-thread API into
+libcurl and use a pool of client threads to run transactions in parallel if
+this ever became a bottleneck.
+
+## Logging
+
+The initialization of the library includes the log verbosity.  The verbose
+operation makes the library very chatty so syslog may get rather clogged
+with detailed diagnostics.  It is possible to configure syslog to put these
+events into a separate file.  A trivial syslog.conf file would be:
+
+```
+
+# Log all user messages so debug information is captured.
+
+user.*      /var/log/debug
+```
+
+If verbose logging is enabled, the cURL library will generate information 
+about the HTTP operations on **stdout**.
