2020-10-19Support dataplane subnet mask & latency histogramLuc Provoost1-1/+1
There is a new parameter in the config_file: dataplane_subnet_mask. This parameter is added to the dataplane IP addresses and is needed by the Linux stack to deal with some protocols (e.g. ARP). If not present, the default value of 24 will be used. In the end, this will make sure that IP addresses in the rapid.env file will have this mask, e.g. /24 If you use other tools than createrapid.py to create the rapid.env file, make sure to add the mask. This commit also introduces a change when exiting: we only copy the prox.log files from the different prox instances in case we expect a new prox.log file to be created in these instances. When using a valid format.yaml file, the tool will now also send the latency distribution data (histogram) to the URL. The tool is now also checking the value of bucket_size_exp: it needs to be 11 or more. Change-Id: I633cdc64ef687fdb6625be1e7482a5a371f83e93 Signed-off-by: Luc Provoost <luc.provoost@intel.com>
2020-09-29New PROX version, background traffic reportingLuc Provoost1-1/+1
deploycentostools.sh is now installing a recent PROX version. When using background traffic, the tool is also reporting the total traffic that was handled by the NFVi stack, including foreground & background traffic. The use of the prox_socket and prox_launch_exit was also broken in a previous release and is now fixed. When setting prox_socket to false for a PROX instance, we will not create a socket connection to control that PROX instance. Setting this option to false is not meaningful for the generator PROX instances since we would not be able to control the behavior of the PROX generator during the test. You could use the generator against another non-PROX instance and then set prox_socket to false for that non-PROX instance. Default is true. prox_launch_exit is used to start and stop the PROX program inside the instance. Default is true. This is useful in case you want to start PROX manually to be able to inspect the PROX UI, but at the same time, let the rapid scripts control the testing.

2020-07-05Adding vdev support and vfioLuc Provoost1-2/+3
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-Id: Ic5c41af82642066af42134c3323297f5a06f6f72 Signed-off-by: Luc Provoost <luc.provoost@intel.com>
2020-05-15Code rewrite and Python3 supportLuc Provoost1-3/+3
The code has been rewritten in multiple classes and files for better readability and maintainability. You should now also use Python3 to run the scripts. Some of the variables in the config files have moved to other sections. The pushgateway parameter moved to the [varia] section of the rapid environment file.

2020-01-31Add support for kubernetes deployment in rapid scripts.Yury Kylulin1-3/+4
In case of kubernetes based deployments procedure for test environment creation is different. Please refer to README.k8s file for more details. Dockerfile and dockerimage.sh files can be used to create a docker image with prox. There is separate createrapidk8s.py script which is used to create appropriate number of PODs for testing based on the rapid.pods configuration. port_info is a helper application to identify port MAC address.

2020-01-23Fix run_iteration when not using the sut_sockLuc Provoost1-0/+1
When no sut_sock monitoring the swap, the while loop would never come to an end. Also added heartbeat timeout in the generator config files. Change-Id: I3c36991c65b9b826faf3d051a1354ca7eb34c24e Signed-off-by: Luc Provoost <luc.provoost@intel.com>
2020-01-17Specify latency bucket size & correct calculationLuc Provoost1-1/+2
A new parameter bucket_size_exp in the *.test file specifies the bucket size for latency measurement. The default is 11 which corresponds to a bucket size of 1 usec for a 2GHz processor. This fix is also calculating the bucket size based on the reported frequency. Before it was assuming a 2GHz processor.

2019-06-30Multiple changes for June releaseLuc Provoost1-2/+2
- 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.

2019-06-28Change of openstackrapid directory nameLuc Provoost1-0/+76
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. Change-Id: Icaa2fad83c6da451eee733934151e98e9cd07de4 Signed-off-by: Luc Provoost <luc.provoost@intel.com>
