The bucket data of the last latency core was taken into account when
collecting the latency stats. We are now adding the bucket data for all
cores.
Also changed the error reporting when PROX instance is breaking the pipe
connection (e.g. when the dataplane network is overloaded).
Cleaning up some trailing spaces in pox_ctrl.py

- Cleanup of the format.yaml file.
- Adding of the packet mis-ordering statistics
- Added a warmup phase to get the correct mis-ordering statistics since
ARP messages need to be dealt with before we can collect correct
misordering stats
- Code cleanup avoiding some long lines
- Removing background traffic control from rapid_flowsizetest.py since
this is already done in the iteration code in rapid_test.py

When scripts are doing an ssh or scp to the PROX instances, errors were
sometimes hidden. E.g. when we try to upload a config file to the PROX
instance that is already existing but owned by another user, we would
not see the error on the screen.
Note this will only happen if you build your own image. In case you use
the pre-canned PROX images, this should not cause issues.

tuned-adm is now run through check_prox_system_setup.sh at the first
system startup/reboot. This will result in the correct grub cmdline
parameters.
We are also coying the default rapid_rsa_key in the authorized_keys of
the rapid user, which is now the default user to run the tests.
Fixed also an issue in handle_mirror.c: using now ETYPE_IPv4.
Changed deploycentostools.sh to reflect the changes done when building
the image with disk-image-create.

Changed PROX and the python scripts so that the "lat all stats" command
also returns the mis_ordered, extent and duplicate statistics.
In order to make this work properly, we need now to also stop and
restart the latency cores, every time we stop and start the generator
cores, since the sequence numbers are reinitialised every time we start
the generator core.

Sending now a 'quit' command to PROX, so that the thread running PROX in
an ssh session is now cleaned up correctly.
Also fixed a problem with the logging when running the code more than
once. We only create handlers now, when they do not yet exist.
Updated the rapid version.
Also added some more tests in the testcases.yaml for xtesting.
At the end of a run, the PROX.log files are copied in the results
directory.
The success criterium for a test 'pass_threshold' has been removed from
the test files and is to be controlled by the xtesting testcases.yaml
file.

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.

A new parameter can be put in the *.test files so that the requested
traffic is not generated at once, but slowly increasing up to the
requested traffic. This is important for some SW switched that adapt and
learn from the applied traffic. When suddenly applying a high traffic,
the switch might not have enough time to learn and lose packets. Only
after a period of time (up to 10 seconds?), the switch can cope with the
traffic without packet loss. In order to get reproducible results in
this case with low packet loss, please put the parameter ramp_step in
the test section of the *.test file. The step is expressed in percentage
of a 10Gb/s traffic. If the parameter is not present, the load will be
immediately applied.
When the runrapid.py script is now finished, it also copies the prox.log
files from all the prox instances. In case of issues, please investigate
this log file.
When using background traffic, the tool will also print the average
background traffic for each step in the DEBUG log. In this way, you can
check that the background traffic is actually dealing with the same
amount of traffic as the foreground. The tool is printing the packet
reception rate of the background generators.
A bug was also fixed regarding the latency percentile reporting. When
using tests involving l2gen.cfg, the values of the percentile latency
were wrong.

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.

Since runrapid.py is now supporting more than 1 dataplane interface, we
need to use a port index in the rapid.env file for the dataplane ports.
In k8sdeployment.py, we only support 1 dataplane port, but we are
writing dp_ip1 and dp_mac1 in the environment file. The copyright dates
are also updated. Some references to VM have also been changed to instance.

All packet size in the *.test files have been replaces with imix sizes.
imix is now a list of packet sizes. If you want to run with only a
pakcet size of 64, you need to specify a list containing only 1 size:
[64].
You can also specify multiple imix values by specifying a list of list
of sizes. The keyworkds in the test files are now imix & imixs.

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)

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.

We are now reporting a percentile number for the round-trip latency. The
numbers are only correct for processors running at 2GHz. Will fix this
next so it runs for any freqency. We only report 1-127 usec. If the
latency goes higher, we are now reporting "VERY HIGH".

-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

- 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.
