New test added TST009_Throughput.test allowing to run the throughput
benchmark as defined in ETSI GS NFV-TST 009. This change adds the binary
search algorithm as defined in the specification document.

Removed the remaining UUIDs from the centos.json file, making it easier
to reuse this file. This does require a recent version of the packer
tool. Updated the README accordingly and also added the --env option in
the packer alias, so that the OS_CLOUD variable is set when running
packer in the container. Updated rapid.vms with the security group name
used in the centos.json file.

Fixing an error re-introduced in the swap.cfg file. The mempool size
needs to be bigger than the number of rx and tx descriptors (we need
some extra buffers in the mempool for other things than rx and tx
descriptors). The default number of tx and rx descriptors has been
changed in PROX to 2K. This initially went through the testing since
this is just giving a warning in the prox.log file for some PMDs. For
other PMDs, PROX will not start.
Also fixed an inconsistency in rapid.vms: name of the security group.

-Renamed monitorswap.test into corestats.test. This is a more generic
test case that can monitor the core statistics of all PROX instances
-New portstats.test which can monitor the port statistics of all PROX
instances
-Removed the tasks parameter in the [DEFAULT] section of the *.test
files. Runrapid.py is now scaning the PROX configuration files to
automatically detect the PROX tasks that are being used.
-There is now an option to add the PushGateway parameter in the
[Default] section of some *.test files. This will push the measurements
to the Gateway, so they can be used by tools like Grafana. The logging
of the data in a csv file has also been improved. Results can now be
found on the screen, in the RUN*.log files, in the *.csv files and are
being pushed to the PushGateway.
-In the *.test files, replaced the swapcores, irqcores and impaircores
by the cores parameter since they are not treated differently by the
code. For a generator, we are still using the gencores and latcores
parameters since we need to treat them differently in runrapid.py
-devbind.sh is removed from the repository since this file is now
created by runrapid.py
-renamed the rapidVMs.vms file into rapid.vms
-image is now built without ssh access for root. Only using centos user.
runrapid.py is now using centos user for ssh sessions. PROX tools are
strted using sudo
-using new DPDK, mb_lib and PROX versions as defined in
deploycentostools.sh
-installing missing yum-utils package in image
-added flowsize parameter to the impairtest
-added list of flowsizes to the fixed_rate testing (l3framerate.test)
-the irqtest can now loop through multiple Test Machines in stead of
only checking the irq of one. Note that we should have the same cores
parameter for all Test machines
-changes in prox_ctrl.py to support setting the speed of a generator on
a combination of mulitple cores and tasks. Also added the
multi_port_stats function to support the new portstats.test
-Updated version to 19.11.21
-Fixed some power of 2 in the flow table

A high number of RX descriptor can be helpful in avoiding
packet loss due to the core being interrupted.
This commit increases the default number of descriptors from 256 to 2K.
Those values are checked versus the minimum and maximum supported by the pmd.
Number of mbufs (mempool size) have been updated n config files to support this
default number of dsescriptors.
The number of descriptors can still be overwritten by the config file. However
those values must always remain within the limits reported by the pmd.

Some OVS versions reports that they support UDP offload and no IPv4 offload,
but fails when UDP offload is enabled.
Hence, now, when virtio reports that it supports UDP checksum and no IPV4
checksum offload, we disable UDP checksum offload.

- When using "pcap file" argument in PROX config file in the gen mode
(and no submode), packets were truncated to 8 bytes (and a warning printed)
This has been fixed.
- "Set value" command was checking whether offset was within first 1518 bytes
unrespective to the mtu (e.g. jumbo packets). This has been fixed.
- There was a limit of 64K packets loaded from a pcap file (which could be
overwritten through PROX config). This limit has been removed - by default
all packets from pcap are loaded
- When pcap was loaded, memory was allocated to store the packet. However
just enough memory was allocated, so that there was no way to change (increase)
packet size through command line after that. Now memory is allocated to store
up to mtu size
- While "set value" command was acting on all packets, "pkt size" command
was only changing the first packet. This has now been changed and both commands
change all the packets.
- A few other minor cleanups.

When CRC stripping is enabled (default PROX behavior), the number of
rx bytes received by the NIC returned by DPDK usually does not take the
CRC 4 bytes into account.
However, for i40e virtual functions those 4 bytes are counted as part of
the received bytes. This resulted in both DPDK and PROX taking those 4 bytes
into account causing the RX % to be above 100%.

Multicast can be enabled through configuration or through command line
- Through configuration
Add multicast=mcast_address (e.g. multicast=01:00:5e:01:02:03) in the port
section
- Through command line
run enable multicast port_id mcast_address (e.g. enable multicast 1 01:00:5e:01:02:03)
IGMP join message is sent unsollicited through command line:
join igmp core_id task_id ip (e.g. join igmp 1 0 224.1.1.3)
To enable swap answering IGMP Query (w/ IGMP Join)
- Through configuration
Add igmp ipv4=ip_address within the core/task section
- Through command line
join igmp core_id task_id ip (e.g. join igmp 1 0 224.1.1.3)
(this will 1st initiate an unsollicated join, then answer any subsequent query)
UDP/TCP packets received on a multicast address (224.0.0.0 => 239.255.255.255) are discarded
To stop sending responses to IGMP query:
leave igmp core_id task_id

fb0c44a fixed compilation on GCC 8 by using:
1) #pragma GCC diagnostic ignored "-Wstringop-truncation"
2) __attribute__ ((fallthrough));
However, -Wstringop-truncation has only been introduced in GCC 8 and
__attribute__ ((fallthrough)) has only been introduced in GCC 7.
Hence they caused Warnings/Errors on earlier versions.
Comments about fallthough (see https://developers.redhat.com/blog/2017/03/10/wimplicit-fallthrough-in-gcc-7/)
can be used on GCC 8 to prevent fall through warnings

MAC address can be configured through the [port] section.
However this had only some effect on packets being transmitted.
For instance it was used to set the src mac address by the generator.
It had no effect on packets reception: when not in promiscuous mode
only the packets with the MAC originally set by the HW were received.
Now, when not in promiscuous mode, only packets with MAC as defined
in [port] section will be received.

On recent OSes such as RHEL 8.0, ncurses(6.1) introduced support
for ECMA-48 repeat character control.
Some terminal emulators use TERM=xterm but do not support this feature.
In this case, printing repeated character such as "22000000 Hz" might
be displayed as 220 Hz.
Other emulators, such as tmux, use TERM=screen, and do not exhibit the issue.

"heartbeat timeout" (in second) can be specified as a global parameter
in PROX config file. If set, a timer is started when the first
command is received from the TCP socket. This timer is reset at each
commands received through the TCP socket. If the timer expires, then
- all cores are stopped
- the TCP socket is closed, causing an error at client side.
This feature helps in case a script starts PROX and the traffic generated
through PROX causes issues to the control plane.

Note that reset value reset any "set values" but does not reset

On Ubuntu 18.04, the keyboard was not properly handled in PROX
For instance, many keys pressed were silently discarded.
The issue is related to a change in histedit/libedit version.
Recent libedit have (silently) changed the prototype of the get_char function
passed in el_set(el, EL_GETCFN, get_char), with some input parameters
changing from char to wchar_t.
As PROX used the old prototype (char based), this resulted in some
uninitialized field (= garbage) in the wchar_t, causing libedit to discard
the character.
PROX now uses different get_char prototypes, depending of the libedit version
being used.
If PROX was already compiled and a the OS is updated (e.g. from Ubuntu 16.04
to Ubuntu 18.04), this will require a 'make clean'.

Warnings can be printed in the following cases:
- When not enough packets are taken into account for measuring packet
latency accuracy.
- When there us a potential network throughput issue, meaning the generator
is generating more packets than the the NIC can handle
- When the generator cannot generate the requested load
If there are no warnings for a certain measurement, nothing gets printed,
suppressing an empty line

- Change inittest in warmuptest. This has now a warmuptime, warmupspeed,
packet size and flow size.
- Change in centos.json. This will now also copy deploycentostools.sh
during image building so that it can be used to re-compile prox in the VM
by typing "./deploycentostools.sh compile"
- runrapid.py parameters needing a file name, need to be complete file
names: no extensions will be added any more by the scripts.
- Changes in createrapid.py to handel the openstack CLI output in a
simpler way.
- The management interface of the VMs can now also be an SRIOV interface.
We have now an extra optional parameter in the VM sections of the
rapiVMs.vms file: SRIOV_mgmt_port
- Changed the name of some sections and keys in the environment file since
runrapid.py will not always communicate to OpenStack VMs. This could be
containers or any other (virtual) machine.
- The previous MachineMap.cfg has been renamed to machine.map
- A new test has been added: monitorswap is just showing the statistics of
a swap (virtual) machine, without generating any packets. This is useful
in situations where an external tester is used.
- Latency and core statistics can now be measured even if there are
multiple PROX cores and tasks running. A new parameter has been added in
the test files with following default value: tasks=[0]. During the
collection of statistics, all tasks in this list will be queried. It is
ok to have a non-existing task in such a query since it will be ignored.
- A --screenlog parameter was added for runrapid.py allowing for more
detailed output on the screen during debugging. No need to check the log
file.
- Previous tests to run multiple packet size with a given flow size and to
run multiple flow size, with a given packet size are now combined by
specifiying 2 lists: packetsizes & flows
- The screen output of this test has also been reworked with more
meaningful column names and the test result is now in the field "core
received". This allows also for faster termination of the test: When the
all packets sent by Gen NIC are received by the cores within the
thresholds for packet loss and latency, the test is now stopped, even we
were requesting more packets to be sent.

Accuracy of latency is obtained by writing TX accuracy for packet N
in a later packet i.e. packet N + WINDOW.
If this window is too small, packet N + WINDOW (conveying accuracy
for packet N) might arrive before packet N, resulting in no accuracy
for packet N.
This change increases this window from 64 to 8K packets.
This change should result in a higher number of packets used for
latency measurements when packets are reordered.
This change might have a performance impact as it uses more memory.

The "dp core stats" command supported, as other commands, multiple cores
but not multiple tasks. It now supports both (e.g. dp core stats 1-2 0-1).
This is necessary so that users can collect all statistics from PROX in one
command line.
It will return similar information on the screen or through the socket:
- if the syntax is wrong (e.g. missing task, too many cores or tasks, ...)
=> an error message is printed on the screen, and the single error line
"error: invalid syntax" is returned through the socket
- if the syntax is correct
=> one line is printed or returned for each core/task pair
=> if the core/task pair is invalid, the line reports an error
=> otherwise, the line provides dataplane statistics for the core/task pair,
with the core_id and task_id added, either at the end of the line returned
through the socket, or at the beginning of the line printed on the screen.
This means a change in behaviour when using the socket: before, when an error
happened (e.g. bad task), then nothing was returned which made it difficult for
the script to catch the syntax error.
Similar behaviour could/should be implemented for other commands.
However, care must be taken as some scripts like NSB might count the number
of lines within the output, or the number of items within the line.
This should not be an issue for dp core stats as NSB does not use it, and other
PROX scripts do not count the number of items and will be adjusted to count the
number of lines.

Warning:
This change breaks backward-compatibility of PROX socket scripting API,
because the "total TX fail" count is reported before the "last TSC"

As a result, PROX scripts that make use of the "dp core stats" command,
such as the core_stats() method in helper-scripts/openstackrapid/prox_ctrl.py,
MUST be reworked to correctly parse the returned set of fields.
