2016-09-29ci: Update default DPDK and OVS versionsMartin Klozik1-4/+2
VSPERF was updated to use DPDK16.07 and OVS 2.6.90 by default. This change should improve a performance. It will also solve failures of VSPERF verify and merge jobs at OPNFV Jenkins, because newer OVS version is compatible with Linux Kernel 4.4.

2016-09-23bugfix: Qemu shared dir failureMartin Klozik1-2/+14
In case of testpmd or l2fwd loopback app, VSPERF copies sources if these tools into qemu shared folder. Maximum size of folder content is limited to approx. 500MB. This limit is exceeded in case that DPDK is built for multiple RTE_TARGETs. Unnecessary files are excluded from the copy to spare size inside shared folder.

2016-09-15paths: Support binary packagesMartin Klozik22-248/+635
Currently VSPERF supports OVS, DPDK and QEMU built from the source code only. In some cases it is required to support installation of these tools from binary packages available for given linux distribution. Thus VSPERF configuration and code was modified to suport both source and binary versions of tools. This can be configured perf tool, so various combinations of source and binary version are supported. Together with new configuration also a handling of kernel modules was modified to automatically detect and load module dependencies.

2016-08-24Vanilla_Multi_Queue: Add vanilla ovs multi-queue functionalityChristian Trautman9-50/+139
Adds multi-queue for vanilla OVS using virtio-net. TunTap ports will use multi_queue parameter when ports are created/deleted if guest nic queues are enabled and vswitch is ovs vanilla. Virtio net will now add guest nic queues to qemu command line if appropriate. Reworked multi-queue documentation to reflect these changes. Adds vhost net thread affinitization which is recommended when performing vanilla ovs multi-queue. Guests will require ethtool if using l2fwd or linux bridge as the loopback application when vanilla ovs multi-queue is enabled. Modified dpdk setting in vswitch conf to be better worded for separation from vanilla ovs multi-queue. Updated release and installation doc for new vloop image that includes required ethtool utility.
