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.

The test case for verifying the vxlan tunneling feature without using any ingress tunnel traffic. The virtual switch(OVS) is configured to mangle and generate tunnel traffic in the deployment. The packet flow in the test case is as follows TRAFFIC-IN --> [ENCAP-PKT] --> [MOD-PKT] --> [DECAP-PKT] --> TRAFFIC-OUT ENCAP-PKT - Encapsulate the ingress packet to a tunnel type. MOD-PKT - Modify the tunnel header to match the following decap interface. DECAP-PKT - Decapsulate the newly generated tunneled packet.

For MoonGen, the final results parameters: throughput_rx_percent, throughput_tx_percent were incorrectly calculated when converting MoonGen to VSPERF format. In particular, this would occur when more than one data stream (single channel unidirectional traffic) was used in the test. When calculating these percentages, only aggregate throughput values equaling unidirectional traffic were used (for example, for 64 byte frames bidirectional traffic should use 29.76 Mpps, not 14.88 Mpps) JIRA: VSPERF-341 Change-Id: Ie62bded7aea023c287697f18c4172b58c320e050 Signed-off-by: bmichalo <bmichalo@redhat.com>
