2016-02-03Add OVS tunnel encapsulation performance testDino Simeon Madarang3-0/+99
Measure OVS DPDK and native VXLAN/GRE/GENEVE encapsulation performance. This patch creates a new deployment scenario, Overlay_P2P. The DUT is configured as a TEP (Tunnel Endpoint) which performs encapsulation of frames and sends traffic to the 2nd traffic generator port. The traffic generator in this case receives an encapsulated frame. No decapsulation is performed in this testcase. Introduce a vsperf param, --run-integration, to filter tests to integration tests. When running integration tests, variables defined in the directory conf/integration/*conf as well as the conf/*.conf are available. This test case requires DPDK 2.1.0 and OVS master - 6bb4a18 or newer.

2016-01-22pkt_gen: support of standalone execution of traffic generatorMartin Klozik1-5/+52
Support for multiple modes of VSPERF operation has been added. These modes can be used for standalone execution of traffic generator or for manual testing or for execution of unsupported traffic generator. Supported modes are: "normal" - execute vSwitch, VNF and traffic generator; "trafficgen" - execute only traffic generator; "trafficgen-off" - execute vSwitch and VNF. Normal mode is selected by default. In case that trafficgen mode is selected, then various --test-params could be specified to affect traffic generator configuration. These parameters include traffic type, frame rate, bidirectional and scalability settings. Selection of transport protocol is not supported by IxNet yet (UDP is enforced), thus modification of transport protocol from command line is not supported too. Fixes of testpmd and qemu warning patches are inclduded.

For PVP and PVVP deployments, traffic inside virtual machines must be forwarded between its interfaces. There are several forwarding options supported by VSPERF, including DPDK testpmd, Huawei l2fwd kernel module and linux bridge. Another option is, that VM image has built in forwarding functionality and vsperf doesn't configure it itself. User can select VM loopback application by configuration option GUEST_LOOPBACK (per VM) or by SCALAR cli option guest_loopback (global settings). Selected guest loopback application(s) will be written into test results CSV file and test report MD file. Default wildcarded guest login prompt was added. Guest startup guarding timer can be configured. Path to OVS kernel module has been fixed.

2015-10-16test_spec: LTD: Some "Throughput" Tests belong in another categoryAl Morton1-97/+107
In the LTD, some of the tests with "Throughput" in the title are not actually testing throughput in the data path. Since the test names are used by TOIT/VSPERF to group similar tests for batch execution, it's important that the names accurately represent the test methods and metrics measured.

2015-10-15test_spec: LTD:Throughput.RFC2544.Profile Metric ClarificationsAl Morton1-4/+4
LTD.Throughput.RFC2544.Profile refers to the metric "maximum forwarding rate" but implies that this is the zero% loss rate, which would be the Throughput level (MFR is usually higher than Throughput, because MFR allows losses). It may be that MFR and Throughput are just interchanged in the last two paragraphs of the description.
