Using vfio in stead of igb_uio. DPDK 2020.5 is NOT compiling the igb_uio
driver by default any more.
For the l3 mode, we are now using the new PROX vdev feature. This is
achieved by adding the vdev parameter in the port section of the PROX
config files. One of the advantages is that we can now ping a port
managed by PROX: the requests will be forwarded by PROX to the LINUX
stack, who will reply to the ping. A tap device is being created by PROX
to support this feature.
Installing old version of nasm since latest causes some issues.
If not pushgateway is being used, it should be commented out in the
config_file.
vfio is now loaded by specifying the module in /etc/modules-load.d
There is also an after_boot.sh script that will be run by
check_prox_system_setup.sh, which can be used for further configuration
of the instance after boot.
There is now also a file created /opt/rapid/system_ready_for_rapid by
the check_prox_system_setup.sh script. This file is created once all
configuration is done. The runrapid.py script will wait till this file
is created before executing any tests.

- 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.

The scripts are orrignally written to support an OpenStack deployment.
We are now making changes to support container environments, hence
renaming the directory to rapid.
