This patch adds support for LLC-Last level cache
management using RMD. The changes include:
1. 08_llcmanagement.conf: The configuration file to define cache
allocation policy.
2. testcase.py: To trigger llc-allocation and cleanup before and
after the test, respectively.
3. llc_management/rmd.py: The main file the performs the llc
allocation and cleanup.
4. llc_management/resthttp.py: Generic utility to call rest APIs,
with http.
5. Fixed a build error due to change in name mismatch.
6. Fixed pylint errors. Override built-in function error.
7. Added empty __init__.py to avoid import errors
8. Fixed deprecated functions errors
9. Fixed copyright issues, removed python-3 checking.
10. Removed pylint disables.
11. resthttp.py is already part of stcrestclient used in
tools/pkt_gen/testcenter/ scripts. Hence, deleted from the source.
12. Year update from the license
13. Fixed some testcases.py collision issue

A support of traffic capture was added into T-Rex.
It allows to write a functional tests, which will
verify proper vSwitch functionality by inspection
of packets received by T-Rex.
A testcase example was added into integration
testcases.

Traffic can be captured also at DUT side. Two options are supported by
vsperf:
1) Traffic is captured inside VM after it has been processed
by vSwitch. This can be used for verification of vSwitch frame
modification functionality, including HW offloading at ingress side.
2) Another NIC under the test (NIC2) is added into standard VSPERF DUT
setup. Traffic is then forwarded from TGen through NIC and vSwitch
to NIC2 and then over patch cable back to NIC2, the vSwitch, NIC and
to the traffic generator. This setup supports also verification of HW
offloading at egress side of NIC2 and thus it can be used for validation
of smart NICS.
Both options above are traffic generator agnostic if compared to direct
support of traffic capture by traffic generator. This patch introduces
example testcases for both options.
Detailed documentation will be pushed as a standalone patch.

If VPP can't be executed properly, then VPP tests will be skipped
for VERIFY and MERGE jobs. It sometimes happens, that VPP can't
be executed at builders used for VERIFY & MERGE jobs execution.
These failures are not caused by patches themselves, but they
are blocking standard review & merge process. Thus VPP tests
will be suppressed in case that VPP can't be started at all.
This change is not related to DAILY job, which is executed
at POD dedicated to VSPERF project. It means that VPP tests
are always executed by DAILY job.

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

Trex by default only accepts packets based on destination
MAC address matching what is configured on server in

A set of tests was introduced with focus on L3, L4 and VxLAN performance
of OVS and VPP. New testcases were created for phy2phy network scenario.
In case of PVP and PVVP, only OVS testcases are available.
Notes:
* two sets of OVS P2P testcases were created, one creates unique flow
for each IP address involved in the test (performance sensitive);
Second set inserts just one flow with large network mask (tests with
_mask suffix).
* three different types of VPP P2P L3 testcases were created to
demonstrate performance impact of multi ARP entries or IP routes.
* VPP multi ARP record based testcases use a set of "workarounds"
to load a large number of ARP entries. It is not possible to use
"set ip arp count" syntax, as it doesn't work well for large count
values (e.g. 60K)
* OVS VxLAN testcases utilize existing OP2P deployment scenario and thus
it can be used also with GRE and GENEVE tunnel types. Tunnel type
to be used is defined by test configuration option "Tunnel Type".

Support of vhost-user client mode has been added for both
OVS and VPP. VSPERF configures vhost-user server mode
in vswitches by default for backward compatibility.
Support of vhost-user server mode is deprecated
in OVS and it can be removed in future releases. Once it will
happen, we have to change vsperf default behavior to
usage of vhost-user client ports at vswitch side.
This patch also fixes processing of boolean configuration
parameters passed via --test-params option. In the past
it was not possible to set boolean value to False through
--test-params option.

Support of VPP was implemented into VSPERF. Initial implementation
uses step driven testcases to configure P2P, PVP and PVVP network
scenarios. These testcases were prepared for three RFC2544 traffic
types, i.e. throughput, continuous stream and back to back.
VPP configuration is driven by new configuration option VSWITCH_VPP_ARGS.
It is possible to use three types of l2 port connection supported
by VPP, i.e. l2 xconnect (default), l2patch and l2 bridge features.
Configuration is driven by parameter VSWITCH_VPP_L2_CONNECT_MODE.

Adds a configurable learning preemptive option when running
xena continuous traffic tests. This resolves a missing packet
or two when running OVS tests at flow rates that should not
drop packets.

Traffic generated by traffic generator is based on default
values and their modifications specific to particular testing
scenario. Traffic default values were defined inside VSPERF
code and it was not possible to change them. This patch introduces
new TRAFFIC dictionary inside 03_traffic.conf. Thus user can
modify any of TRAFFIC values either in configuration file
or by CLI or by 'Parameters' section of testcase definition.
Following CLI options were obsoleted by this patch:
'bidirectional', 'traffic_type', 'iload', 'multistream',
'stream_type' and 'pre-installed_flows'
Following CLI option was renamed to be consistent with other options:
'tunnel_type' => 'TUNNEL_TYPE'
Following sections of testcase definition were obsoleted:
"Traffic Type", "biDirectional", "MultiStream", "Stream Type",
"Pre-installed Flows", "Flow Type" and "iLoad"
New TRAFFIC dictionary should be used instead of old CLI options
and old testcase definition sections. Testcase definitons,
yardstick sample testcases and documentation were updated to reflect
configuration changes.

Following changes are added following first review
1. Descriptions in integration/01_testcases.conf
2. Comment in conf/01_testcases.conf
3. Checking all cases of traffic types in traffic_controller_rfc2544.py
4. Removing whitespaces
5. Missing changes (throughput->rfc2544_throughput)
6. Syntax error in core/traffic_controller_rfc2544.py
Currently the traffic-type values that are provided as part of the
test case definition needs some fix to support additional traffic
- apart from rfc2544. The Current and the proposed changed is summarized
in the below table:
|--------------------------------------------------------------------|
| Parameter | Existing traffic_type value | Changed to |
----------------------------------------------------------------------
| Throughput | rfc2544 OR throughput | rfc2544_throughput |
----------------------------------------------------------------------
| Back2Back | back2back | rfc2544_back2back |
----------------------------------------------------------------------
| Continuous | continuous | rfc2544_continuous |

VSPERF by default requires allocation of hugepages with total
size of 10GB. However for MERGE and VERIFY jobs less memory is
required and default size of 10GB can cause issues. Thus amount
of memory was limited and other minor enhancements were introduced:
* sysstat system package is installed at nodes running VERIFY
and MERGE jobs
* WHITELIST_NICS was set to empty list by default to avoid
automatic bind of NICs to DPDK. Old default value could
cut off network connection to DUT.
* imports were fixed at both integration.py and testcase.py
