2020-05-29Added initial support for NDP (IPv6)Xavier Simonart1-1/+11
Following messages are now handled by PROX - router_solicitation - neighbour_solicitation - router_advertisement - neighbour_advertisement The following parameters are supported (through the PROX config file) - sub mode=ndp This will enable handling of router and neighbour solicitation and advertisement. - local ipv6=xxxx:xxxx:xxxxx:xxxx:xxxx:xxxx:xxxx:xxxx This will configure the local IPv6 address of the port. This parameter is optional. If not specified, the local IPv6 will be calculated from the EUI. - global ipv6=xxxx:xxxx:xxxxx:xxxx:xxxx:xxxx:xxxx:xxxx This will configure the global IPv6 address of the port. This parameter is optional. If not specified, the global IPv6 will be calculated from the EUI and the router prefix received from the router. - ipv6 router=yes This will cause the core to behave as an IPv6 router i.e. it will generate Router Advertisement messages This is only useful in back to back cases, when no real IPv6 router is present in the setup. - router prefix=xxxx:xxxx:xxxx:xxxx:xxxx:xxxx:xxxx:xxxx The router prefix usedin the router advertisement The prefix will be used by the node to build an IPv6 global address in cases none were configured. "Unsollicited NA" parameter has been added within the core/task section. If set to yes (Unsollicited NA=yes), then an unsollicited neighbour Advertisement is sent at startup A same core/task cannot support both l3 and ndp mode. Those messages will be generated or handled when submode is set to "ndp": - neighbour sollicitation - neighbour advertisement - router sollicitation - router advertisement An example configuration is provided: config/ipv6.cfg in which port 0 / core 1 plays the role of the generator and port 1 / core 2 plays the role of the swap.

2020-05-29Add support for vdev tap devicesXavier Simonart1-1/+2
This commit adds support for the creation of tap devices. To create a tap device, and associate it with a DPDK port, add within the port section: vdev=<tap_name> local ipv4=<ip_assigned_to_port> <tap_name> will appear as a kernel network device, with an IP <ip_assigned_to_port> ARP packets received from the network on the DPDK interface will be forwarded to the kernel. 1st packet which needs to be generated to a new IP will cause an IP packet to be sent to the kernel (using socket sendto) forcing the kernel to send an ARP_REQUEST. In this commit, there is no notification from the kernel about ARP table changes. This is subject to further commits. Two config files, gen_tap.cfg and swap_tap.cfg have been created. They work one against each other. *** Note however that they do not work if running within the same host (with the port being connected back to back) *** This is due to the fact that the kernel would bypass the ports and use local interface...

2020-01-29Prepare for DPDK 19.08 supportXavier Simonart1-5/+5
This commit prepares PROX for supporting changes from DPDK 19.08 Mainly, the "sed" listed below were run. In addition, - some forward definition have been removed, - prox_compat.h has been updated - prox_compat.h has been included where necessary.

2019-10-13Increase the default number of rx and tx descriptors to 2KXavier Simonart1-2/+2
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.

2019-10-11Fix generation through pcap fileXavier Simonart1-1/+2
- 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.

2019-10-09Add support for igmp and multicastXavier Simonart1-0/+1
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 Change-Id: I3808ccabf3b38b5a1e10e1b044db63aa05bcd7b5 Signed-off-by: Xavier Simonart <xavier.simonart@intel.com>

2018-05-25Increase default mbuf size and code simplification/cleanupXavier Simonart1-2/+2
mbuf size was setup to achieve the best performance i.e. using the smallest mbuf and not segmenting packets. However this resulted in complex code, much dependent of the way the pmd are working e.g. a change(fix) in recent dpdk i40e implementation caused a 1782 (=1518+8+256) bytes mbuf to be too small to hold a 1518 bytes packets. Hence this change simplifies the mbuf size selection at the price of a potential decreases in performance - as more memory is now used. Except if jumbo frames are used, the mbuf size will now be the same for all modes. The packets will not be segmented except if jumbo frames are enabled. If jumbo frames are enabled, packets are by default segmented, except if the mbuf size is configured big enough in the config file.
