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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

-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

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.
