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.

UDP and IP packet length and source UDP port and destination UDP port
were wrongly set for IPv6 packets.
In the *.test files, there is now an optional boolean field (ipv6) in
the [TestParameters] section. When set to true, the generator will use
the IPv6 packet layout to place the right values at the proper offset
in the packet. If not present or set to false, the IPv4 layout will be
used. Note also that packet size needs to be at least 84 bytes for IPV6
traffic since we need space for latency and other information in each
packet.
Packet loss ratio is now printed as a percentage of the total packets
sent.

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.

IPV6 test has been added. The generator will now generate IPV6 packets
using NDP to resolve MAC addresses. The hex IP addresses in the inline
definition of the packets in the cfg files is now calculated by a lua
function called in parameters.lua. The hard-coded path /home/centos has
been replaced by ~. An error in the speed calculations has been fixed.
See the RapidTest class for details. The actual number of generated
flows is now reported. If the requested number of flows is not a power
of 2, the lowest power of 2 that is larger than the requested number of
flows will be used and reported.

yaml files have been added to the repo as an example. Please check the
README explaining the output section reqs for this yaml file. There is
also a new file (config_file): it also specifies which yaml files to
use. multiple dataplane interfaces per VM can now be specified and will
appear in the <STACK>.env file. An error in setting the packet size has
been fixed (see set_udp_packet_size for packet size setting details)
