-vFW Compilation
-================
-After downloading (or doing a git clone) in a directory (samplevnf)
-
--------------
-Dependencies
--------------
-
-- DPDK supported versions ($DPDK_RTE_VER = 16.04, 16.11, 17.02 or 17.05). Downloaded and installed via vnf_build.sh or manually from [here] (http://fast.dpdk.org/rel/dpdk-$DPDK_RTE_VER.zip). Both the options are available as part of vnf_build.sh below.
-- libpcap-dev
-- libzmq
-- libcurl
-
----------------------
-Environment variables
----------------------
-Apply all the additional patches in 'patches/dpdk_custom_patch/' and build dpdk
-(NOTE: required only for DPDK version 16.04).
-
-::
-
- export RTE_SDK=<dpdk directory>
-
- export RTE_TARGET=x86_64-native-linuxapp-gcc
-
-This is done by vnf_build.sh script.
-
-Auto Build
-===========
-$ ./tools/vnf_build.sh in samplevnf root folder
-
-Follow the steps in the screen from option [1] --> [9] and select option [8]
-to build the vnfs.
-It will automatically download selected DPDK version and any required patches
-and will setup everything and build vFW VNFs.
-
-Following are the options for setup:
-
-::
-
- ----------------------------------------------------------
- Step 1: Environment setup.
- ----------------------------------------------------------
- [1] Check OS and network connection
- [2] Select DPDK RTE version
-
- ----------------------------------------------------------
- Step 2: Download and Install
- ----------------------------------------------------------
- [3] Agree to download
- [4] Download packages
- [5] Download DPDK zip
- [6] Build and Install DPDK
- [7] Setup hugepages
-
- ----------------------------------------------------------
- Step 3: Build VNFs
- ----------------------------------------------------------
- [8] Build all VNFs (vACL, vCGNAPT, vFW, UDP_Replay)
-
- [9] Exit Script
-
-An vFW executable will be created at the following location
-samplevnf/VNFs/vFW/build/vFW
-
-Manual Build
-=============
-1. Download DPDK supported version from dpdk.org
-
- - http://dpdk.org/browse/dpdk/snapshot/dpdk-$DPDK_RTE_VER.zip
-2. unzip dpdk-$DPDK_RTE_VER.zip and apply dpdk patches only in case of 16.04
- (Not required for other DPDK versions)
-
- - cd dpdk
-
- - patch -p1 < VNF_CORE/patches/dpdk_custom_patch/i40e-fix-link-management.patch
- - patch -p1 < VNF_CORE/patches/dpdk_custom_patch/i40e-fix-Rx-hang-when-disable-LLDP.patch
- - patch -p1 < VNF_CORE/patches/dpdk_custom_patch/i40e-fix-link-status-change-interrupt.patch
- - patch -p1 < VNF_CORE/patches/dpdk_custom_patch/i40e-fix-VF-bonded-device-link-down.patch
- - patch -p1 < $VNF_CORE/patches/dpdk_custom_patch/disable-acl-debug-logs.patch
- - patch -p1 < $VNF_CORE/patches/dpdk_custom_patch/set-log-level-to-info.patch
-
- - build dpdk
- - make config T=x86_64-native-linuxapp-gcc O=x86_64-native-linuxapp-gcc
- - cd x86_64-native-linuxapp-gcc
- - make
-
- - Setup huge pages
- - For 1G/2M hugepage sizes, for example 1G pages, the size must be specified
- explicitly and can also be optionally set as the default hugepage
- size for the system. For example, to reserve 8G of hugepage memory in
- the form of eight 1G pages, the following options should be passed
- to the kernel:
- * default_hugepagesz=1G hugepagesz=1G hugepages=8 hugepagesz=2M hugepages=2048
- - Add this to Go to /etc/default/grub configuration file.
- - Append "default_hugepagesz=1G hugepagesz=1G hugepages=8 hugepagesz=2M hugepages=2048"
- to the GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX entry.
-
-3. Setup Environment Variable
-
- - export RTE_SDK=<samplevnf>/dpdk
- - export RTE_TARGET=x86_64-native-linuxapp-gcc
- - export VNF_CORE=<samplevnf>
-
- or using ./tools/setenv.sh
-
-4. Build vFW VNFs
-
- - cd <samplevnf>/VNFs/vFW
- - make clean
- - make
-
-5. The vFW executable will be created at the following location
-
- - <samplevnf>/VNFs/vFW/build/vFW
-
