2018-01-21loadgen: Support for Stressor-VMs as a LoadgenSridhar K. N. Rao1-1/+17
This patch adds support for stressor-VMs as a loadgen in VSPERF. The changes include: 1. 07_loadgen.conf: User can specify the stressor-VM specific configuration. It includes, image-name, path, nics, memory, etc. 2. loadgen/stressorvm/stressor_vm.py: This file implement ILoadGenerator interface. It implements all the necessary APIs for starting and stopping the loads. 3. Fixed Pylint Error 4. Removed the network device configuration from qemu-system-x86_64 command as stessor-vm mostly focus on CPU and memory stressing. 5. Moved the creation of loadgen after the VNFs are setup in testcase.py. 6. Fixed copyright issues. 7. Removed python-3 checking. Improved exception handling 8. Set Default loadgen as DummyLoadGen 9. Improved OSError Printing with directory name and error 10. Update the year in license. 2017-2018. JIRA: VSPERF-504 Change-Id: Iad6c0780c184f8e36eddcbcae2a580f41118e8dc Signed-off-by: Sridhar K. N.

2017-11-03load_gen: Supporting loading of load_gen via loader.Sridhar K. N. Rao1-0/+21
Currently all tools are loaded via loader utility, except load_gen. Load_gens were loaded directly through component_factory. This patch adds support to load load_gens through loader utility. The changes are as follows: 1. Configuration changes:The common.conf include configuration of directory. testcases.conf includes changes to load configuration, where tool is no more part of the load-configuration. The custom.conf has configuration of LOADGEN to be used - this configuration replaces the earlier 'tool' configuration parameter. 2. loader_utility_changes: In loader.py, loadgen_loader is defined, which is used in new get_loadgen function. 3. component_factory changes: in create_loadgen, similar to other tools, the function just retuns the object of loadgen_class. 4. Renaming of Dummy load_gen: Loader fails to load properly a dummy loadgen due to name-clash with dummy in pkt_gen. To avoid this name clash dummy is renamed to dummyloadgen. 5. testcase changes: create_loadgen is now called with output of loader's get_loadgen_class. 6. Fixed Pylint Errors and extra-space at the end. 7. Included CLI options support for --loadgen and --list-loadgens. Thanks to Martin K. 8. Added the missing loadgen parameter in testcases.conf. 9. Fixed the missing comma error. 10. Added CI change in build-vsperf.sh 11. Fixed configuration reading in stress/stress.py JIRA: VSPERF-533 Change-Id: I3fbb259618825a12fef55320a748a4f02509190b Signed-off-by: Sridhar K. N.
