docs: refresh & structure overhaul
Rework the doc in order to improve the navigation experience and to make
it easier to update the doc:
- simplify structure: docs/{release-notes,user,developer}
- recreate sphinx config file
- switch theme from opnfv to piccolo
- fix minor rst issues
- fix external references
- add missing license headers (add a short header with copyright and
SPDX license identifier to the files lacking the information. The
header is based on https://github.com/david-a-wheeler/spdx-tutorial)

Starting from version 0.11, this page -summarizes the news of each release. - - -Release 0.16 (2022-11-15) -========================= - -Fixes: - -- Increase wait for VPP service from 10 to 30 seconds (10s is not enough on some - setups) and poll every second instead of sleeping 10s. - -- Set the MTU of the management interface to 1500 by default (to reduce the risk - to get an unmanageable VM). A different value can be set using the - ``INTF_MGMT_MTU`` variable in ``/etc/nfvbenchvm.conf``. - -Changes for developers: - -- Add 2 debug features to ``build-image.sh``: - - - The new option ``-t`` (enable debug traces) allows to show in the build log - the commands run in the shell scripts, including the commands defined in the - disk image builder elements. - - - The new option ``-d`` (debug) instructs ``disk-image-create`` to drop the - developer in a shell inside the chroot in case an error occurs. This makes - troubleshooting of the image possible (inspect files, run commands, ...) - -- Abort build on error: make sure a VM image build fails if any step fails. - Else we can end up with a bad image not containing all that we want, and we - discover this later at run time. - -- Fix build with diskimage_builder (dib) 3.16.0. - -- Switch VPP package repository to packagecloud.io instead of nexus.fd.io. This - fixes intermittent access issues with nexus.fd.io and this will make it - possible to get vpp releases higher than 19.08. - -- Separate loop VM and generator VM version numbers (a first step towards using - nfvbench version number for the generator VM). - - -Release 0.15 (2021-06-04) -========================= - -- NFVBENCH-211 Fix VPP driver for loop VM (switch UIO driver for VPP forwarder: - use ``uio_pci_generic`` instead of ``igb_uio``). - - -Release 0.14 (2021-05-21) -========================= - -- NFVBENCH-209 Fix NFVbench loopvm build failed on testpmd step (includes switch - UIO driver for testmpd forwarder: use ``uio_pci_generic`` instead of - ``igb_uio``). - - -Release 0.13 (2021-04-28) -========================= - -- NFVBENCH-196: New NFVbench image for generator part (nfvbench and TRex codes inside VM) -- Change Linux kernel boot-time configuration (kernel CLI parameters): - - - Extend CPU isolation (``isolcpus=1-7`` instead of ``isolcpus=1``) - - Increase the number of 1GB huge pages (``hugepages=4`` instead of ``hugepages=2``) - - Enable IOMMU (``intel_iommu=on iommu=pt``) - -- Load the ``vfio-pci`` kernel module with the ``enable_unsafe_noiommu_mode=1`` option. - - -Release 0.12 (2020-01-23) -========================= - -- NFVBENCH-157 Add possibility to not use the ARP static configuration for VPP loop VM - - -Release 0.11 (2019-11-26) -========================= - -- NFVBENCH-156 Add management interface and ssh config in NFVBench image - - -Earlier releases -================ - -See NFVbench commit history. |
