This OPNFV software suite includes OPNFV KVMFORNFV latest software packages +for Linux Kernel and QEMU patches for achieving low latency and also OPNFV Barometer for traffic, +performance and platform monitoring. High Availability feature is achieved by deploying OpenStack +multi-node setup with 1 Fuel-Master,3 controllers and 2 computes nodes. + +KVMFORNFV packages will be installed on compute nodes as part of deployment.

It can be used +for debugging or analyzing latencies and performance issues that take place outside of user-space. +Although ftrace is typically considered the function tracer, it is really a frame work of several +assorted tracing utilities. + + One of the most common uses of ftrace is the event tracing. + +**Note:** +- For KVMFORNFV, Ftrace is preferred as it is in-built kernel tool +- More stable compared to other debugging tools + +Version Features +---------------- + ++-----------------------------+-----------------------------------------------+ +| | | +| **Release** | **Features** | +| | | ++=============================+===============================================+ +| | - Ftrace Debugging tool is not implemented in | +| Colorado | Colorado release of KVMFORNFV | +| | | ++-----------------------------+-----------------------------------------------+ +| | - Ftrace aids in debugging the KVMFORNFV | +| Danube | 4.4-linux-kernel level issues | +| | - Option to diable if not required | ++-----------------------------+-----------------------------------------------+ + + +Implementation of Ftrace +------------------------- +Ftrace uses the debugfs file system to hold the control files as +well as the files to display output. + +When debugfs is configured into the kernel (which selecting any ftrace +option will do) the directory /sys/kernel/debug will be created. To mount +this directory, you can add to your /etc/fstab file: + +.. code:: bash + + debugfs /sys/kernel/debug debugfs defaults 0 0 + +Or you can mount it at run time with: + +.. code:: bash + + mount -t debugfs nodev /sys/kernel/debug + +Some configurations for Ftrace are used for other purposes, like finding latency or analyzing the system. For the purpose of debugging, the kernel configuration parameters that should be enabled are: + +.. code:: bash + + CONFIG_FUNCTION_TRACER=y + CONFIG_FUNCTION_GRAPH_TRACER=y + CONFIG_STACK_TRACER=y + CONFIG_DYNAMIC_FTRACE=y + +The above parameters must be enabled in /boot/config-4.4.0-el7.x86_64 i.e., kernel config file for ftrace to work. If not enabled, change the parameter to ``y`` and run., + +.. code:: bash + + On CentOS + grub2-mkconfig -o /boot/grub2/grub.cfg + sudo reboot + +Re-check the parameters after reboot before running ftrace. + +Files in Ftrace: +---------------- +The below is a list of few major files in Ftrace. + + ``current_tracer:`` + + This is used to set or display the current tracer that is configured. + + ``available_tracers:`` + + This holds the different types of tracers that have been compiled into the kernel. The tracers listed here can be configured by echoing their name into current_tracer. + + ``tracing_on:`` + + This sets or displays whether writing to the tracering buffer is enabled. Echo 0 into this file to disable the tracer or 1 to enable it. + + ``trace:`` + + This file holds the output of the trace in a human readable format. + + ``tracing_cpumask:`` + + This is a mask that lets the user only trace on specified CPUs.

In case of + unidirectional traffic, it is essential to correctly connect 2nd IXIA port to the 2nd NIC + at DUT, i.e. to the second PCI handle from WHITELIST_NICS list. Otherwise traffic may not + be able to pass through the vSwitch. + * TRAFFICGEN_IXNET_LIB_PATH - path to the DUT specific installation of IxNetwork TCL API + * TRAFFICGEN_IXNET_TCL_SCRIPT - name of the TCL script, which VSPERF will use for + communication with IXIA TCL server + * TRAFFICGEN_IXNET_TESTER_RESULT_DIR - folder accessible from IxNetwork TCL server, + where test results are stored, e.g. ``c:/ixia_results``; see test-results-share_ + * TRAFFICGEN_IXNET_DUT_RESULT_DIR - directory accessible from the DUT, where test + results from IxNetwork TCL server are stored, e.g. ``/mnt/ixia_results``; see + test-results-share_ + +.. _test-results-share: + +Test results share +------------------- + +VSPERF is not able to retrieve test results via TCL API directly. Instead, all test +results are stored at IxNetwork TCL server. Results are stored at folder defined by +``TRAFFICGEN_IXNET_TESTER_RESULT_DIR`` configuration parameter. Content of this +folder must be shared (e.g. via samba protocol) between TCL Server and DUT, where +VSPERF is executed. VSPERF expects, that test results will be available at directory +configured by ``TRAFFICGEN_IXNET_DUT_RESULT_DIR`` configuration parameter. + +Example of sharing configuration: + + * Create a new folder at IxNetwork TCL server machine, e.g. ``c:\ixia_results`` + * Modify sharing options of ``ixia_results`` folder to share it with everybody + * Create a new directory at DUT, where shared directory with results + will be mounted, e.g. ``/mnt/ixia_results`` + * Update your custom VSPERF configuration file as follows: + + .. code-block:: python + + TRAFFICGEN_IXNET_TESTER_RESULT_DIR = 'c:/ixia_results' + TRAFFICGEN_IXNET_DUT_RESULT_DIR = '/mnt/ixia_results' + + Note: It is essential to use slashes '/' also in path + configured by ``TRAFFICGEN_IXNET_TESTER_RESULT_DIR`` parameter. + * Install cifs-utils package. + + e.g. at rpm based Linux distribution: + + .. code-block:: console + + yum install cifs-utils + + * Mount shared directory, so VSPERF can access test results. + + e.g. by adding new record into ``/etc/fstab`` + + .. code-block:: console + + mount -t cifs //_TCL_SERVER_IP_OR_FQDN_/ixia_results /mnt/ixia_results + -o file_mode=0777,dir_mode=0777,nounix + +It is recommended to verify, that any new file inserted into ``c:/ixia_results`` folder +is visible at DUT inside ``/mnt/ixia_results`` directory. + + +Cloning and building src dependencies +~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ +In order to run VSPERF, you will need to download DPDK and OVS. You can do this manually and build +them in a preferred location, or you could use vswitchperf/src. The vswitchperf/src directory +contains makefiles that will allow you to clone and build the libraries that VSPERF depends on, +such as DPDK and OVS. To clone and build simply: + +.. code:: bash + + cd src + make + +To delete a src subdirectory and its contents to allow you to re-clone simply use: + +.. code:: bash + + make cleanse + +Configure the `./conf/10_custom.conf` file +~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ +The supplied `10_custom.conf` file must be modified, as it contains configuration items for which there are no reasonable default values. + +The configuration items that can be added is not limited to the initial contents. Any configuration item mentioned in any .conf file in `./conf` directory can be added and that item will be overridden by the custom +configuration value. + +Using a custom settings file +~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ +Alternatively a custom settings file can be passed to `vsperf` via the `--conf-file` argument. + +.. code:: bash + + ./vsperf --conf-file <path_to_settings_py> ... + +Note that configuration passed in via the environment (`--load-env`) or via another command line +argument will override both the default and your custom configuration files. This +"priority hierarchy" can be described like so (1 = max priority): + +1. Command line arguments +2. Environment variables +3. Configuration file(s) + +Executing tests +~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ +Before running any tests make sure you have root permissions by adding the following line to /etc/sudoers: +.. code:: bash + + username ALL=(ALL) NOPASSWD: ALL + +username in the example above should be replaced with a real username. + +To list the available tests: + +.. code:: bash + + ./vsperf --list-tests + + +To run a group of tests, for example all tests with a name containing +'RFC2544': + +.. code:: bash + + ./vsperf --conf-file=user_settings.py --tests="RFC2544" + +To run all tests: + +.. code:: bash + + ./vsperf --conf-file=user_settings.py + +Some tests allow for configurable parameters, including test duration (in seconds) as well as packet sizes (in bytes). + +.. code:: bash + + ./vsperf --conf-file user_settings.py + --tests RFC2544Tput + --test-param "rfc2544_duration=10;packet_sizes=128" + +For all available options, check out the help dialog: + +.. code:: bash + + ./vsperf --help + + +Testcases +---------- +Available Tests in VSPERF are: + + * phy2phy_tput + * phy2phy_forwarding + * back2back + * phy2phy_tput_mod_vlan + * phy2phy_cont + * pvp_cont + * pvvp_cont + * pvpv_cont + * phy2phy_scalability + * pvp_tput + * pvp_back2back + * pvvp_tput + * pvvp_back2back + * phy2phy_cpu_load + * phy2phy_mem_load + +VSPERF modes of operation +-------------------------- + +VSPERF can be run in different modes. By default it will configure vSwitch, +traffic generator and VNF. However it can be used just for configuration +and execution of traffic generator. Another option is execution of all +components except traffic generator itself. + +Mode of operation is driven by configuration parameter -m or --mode + +.. code-block:: console + + -m MODE, --mode MODE vsperf mode of operation; + Values: + "normal" - execute vSwitch, VNF and traffic generator + "trafficgen" - execute only traffic generator + "trafficgen-off" - execute vSwitch and VNF + "trafficgen-pause" - execute vSwitch and VNF but wait before traffic transmission + +In case, that VSPERF is executed in "trafficgen" mode, then configuration +of traffic generator can be modified through ``TRAFFIC`` dictionary passed to the +``--test-params`` option. It is not needed to specify all values of ``TRAFFIC`` +dictionary. It is sufficient to specify only values, which should be changed. +Detailed description of ``TRAFFIC`` dictionary can be found at: ref:`configuration-of-traffic-dictionary`. + +Example of execution of VSPERF in "trafficgen" mode: + +.. code-block:: console + + $ ./vsperf -m trafficgen --trafficgen IxNet --conf-file vsperf.conf \ + --test-params "TRAFFIC={'traffic_type':'rfc2544_continuous','bidir':'False','framerate':60}" + + +================================ +Packet Forwarding Test Scenarios +================================ +KVMFORNFV currently implements three scenarios as part of testing: + + * Host Scenario + * Guest Scenario. + * SR-IOV Scenario. + + +Packet Forwarding Host Scenario +------------------------------- +Here Host is NODE-2. It has VSPERF installed in it and is properly configured to use IXIA Traffic-generator by providing IXIA CARD, PORTS and Lib paths along with IP. +please refer to figure.2 + +.. Figure:: ../images/Host_Scenario.png + +Packet Forwarding Guest Scenario +-------------------------------- +Here the guest is a Virtual Machine (VM) launched by using a modified CentOS image(vsperf provided) +on Node-2 (Host) using Qemu. In this scenario, the packet is initially forwarded to Host which is +then forwarded to the launched guest. The time taken by the packet to reach the IXIA traffic-generator +via Host and Guest is calculated and published as a test result of this scenario. + +.. Figure:: ../images/Guest_Scenario.png + +Packet Forwarding SRIOV Scenario +-------------------------------- +Unlike the packet forwarding to Guest-via-Host scenario, here the packet generated at the IXIA is +directly forwarded to the Guest VM launched on Host by implementing SR-IOV interface at NIC level +of Host .i.e., Node-2. The time taken by the packet to reach the IXIA traffic-generator is calculated +and published as a test result for this scenario. SRIOV-support_ is given below, it details how to use SR-IOV. + +.. Figure:: ../images/SRIOV_Scenario.png + +Using vfio_pci with DPDK +------------------------ + +To use vfio with DPDK instead of igb_uio add into your custom configuration +file the following parameter: + +.. code-block:: python + + PATHS['dpdk']['src']['modules'] = ['uio', 'vfio-pci'] + + +**NOTE:** In case, that DPDK is installed from binary package, then please + + set ``PATHS['dpdk']['bin']['modules']`` instead. + +**NOTE:** Please ensure that Intel VT-d is enabled in BIOS. + +**NOTE:** Please ensure your boot/grub parameters include +the following: + +.. code-block:: console + + iommu=pt intel_iommu=on + +To check that IOMMU is enabled on your platform: + +.. code-block:: console + + $ dmesg | grep IOMMU + [ 0.000000] Intel-IOMMU: enabled + [ 0.139882] dmar: IOMMU 0: reg_base_addr fbffe000 ver 1:0 cap d2078c106f0466 ecap f020de + [ 0.139888] dmar: IOMMU 1: reg_base_addr ebffc000 ver 1:0 cap d2078c106f0466 ecap f020de + [ 0.139893] IOAPIC id 2 under DRHD base 0xfbffe000 IOMMU 0 + [ 0.139894] IOAPIC id 0 under DRHD base 0xebffc000 IOMMU 1 + [ 0.139895] IOAPIC id 1 under DRHD base 0xebffc000 IOMMU 1 + [ 3.335744] IOMMU: dmar0 using Queued invalidation + [ 3.335746] IOMMU: dmar1 using Queued invalidation + .... + +.. _SRIOV-support: + +Using SRIOV support +------------------- + +To use virtual functions of NIC with SRIOV support, use extended form +of NIC PCI slot definition: + +.. code-block:: python + + WHITELIST_NICS = ['0000:03:00.0|vf0', '0000:03:00.1|vf3'] + +Where ``vf`` is an indication of virtual function usage and following +number defines a VF to be used. In case that VF usage is detected, +then vswitchperf will enable SRIOV support for given card and it will +detect PCI slot numbers of selected VFs. + +So in example above, one VF will be configured for NIC '0000:05:00.0' +and four VFs will be configured for NIC '0000:05:00.1'. Vswitchperf +will detect PCI addresses of selected VFs and it will use them during +test execution. + +At the end of vswitchperf execution, SRIOV support will be disabled. + +SRIOV support is generic and it can be used in different testing scenarios. +For example: + + +* vSwitch tests with DPDK or without DPDK support to verify impact + of VF usage on vSwitch performance +* tests without vSwitch, where traffic is forwared directly + between VF interfaces by packet forwarder (e.g. testpmd application) +* tests without vSwitch, where VM accesses VF interfaces directly + by PCI-passthrough to measure raw VM throughput performance. + diff --git a/docs/userguide/pcm_utility.userguide.rst b/docs/userguide/pcm_utility.userguide.rst new file mode 100644 index 000000000..baef7059a --- /dev/null +++ b/docs/userguide/pcm_utility.userguide.rst @@ -0,0 +1,126 @@ +========================================================= +Collecting Memory Bandwidth Information using PCM utility +========================================================= + +About PCM utility +----------------- +The Intel® Performance Counter Monitor provides sample C++ routines and utilities to estimate the +internal resource utilization of the latest Intel® Xeon® and Core™ processors and gain a significant +performance boost.In Intel PCM toolset,there is a pcm-memory.x tool which is used for observing the +memory traffic intensity + +Version Features +----------------- + ++-----------------------------+-----------------------------------------------+ +| | | +| **Release** | **Features** | +| | | ++=============================+===============================================+ +| | - In Colorado release,we don't have memory | +| Colorado | bandwidth information collected through the | +| | cyclic testcases. | +| | | ++-----------------------------+-----------------------------------------------+ +| | - pcm-memory.x provides the memory bandwidth | +| | data throught out the testcases | +| | - pcm-memory.x will be executedbefore the | +| Danube | execution of every testcase | +| | - used for all test-types (stress/idle) | +| | - Generated memory bandwidth logs which are | +| | to published to the KVMFORFNV artifacts | ++-----------------------------+-----------------------------------------------+ + +Implementation of pcm-memory.x: +~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ + +The tool measures the memory bandwidth observed for every channel reporting seperately throughputs +for reads from memory and writes to the memory.pcm-memory.x tool tends to report values slightly +higher than the application's own measurement. + +Command: + +.. code:: bash + + sudo ./pcm-memory.x [Delay]/[external_program] + +Parameters + +- pcm-memory can called with either delay or external_program/application as a parameter + +- If delay is given as 5,then the output will be produced with refresh of every 5 seconds. + +- If external_program is script/application,then the output will produced after the execution of the application or the script passed as a parameter. + +**Sample Output:** + + The output produced with default refresh of 1 second. + ++---------------------------------------+---------------------------------------+ +| Socket 0 | Socket 1 | ++=======================================+=======================================+ +| Memory Performance Monitoring | Memory Performance Monitoring | +| | | ++---------------------------------------+---------------------------------------+ +| Mem Ch 0: Reads (MB/s): 6870.81 | Mem Ch 0: Reads (MB/s): 7406.36 | +| Writes(MB/s): 1805.03 | Writes(MB/s): 1951.25 | +| Mem Ch 1: Reads (MB/s): 6873.91 | Mem Ch 1: Reads (MB/s): 7411.11 | +| Writes(MB/s): 1810.86 | Writes(MB/s): 1957.73 | +| Mem Ch 2: Reads (MB/s): 6866.77 | Mem Ch 2: Reads (MB/s): 7403.39 | +| Writes(MB/s): 1804.38 | Writes(MB/s): 1951.42 | +| Mem Ch 3: Reads (MB/s): 6867.47 | Mem Ch 3: Reads (MB/s): 7403.66 | +| Writes(MB/s): 1805.53 | Writes(MB/s): 1950.95 | +| | | +| NODE0 Mem Read (MB/s): 27478.96 | NODE1 Mem Read (MB/s): 29624.51 | +| NODE0 Mem Write (MB/s): 7225.79 | NODE1 Mem Write (MB/s): 7811.36 | +| NODE0 P.
