2016-10-17testpmd: Simplify GUEST's testpmd configurationMartin Klozik1-115/+110
Testpmd has a lot of parameters and vsperf was able to modify only a few of them through dedicated GUEST's specific configuration options. Old configuration options were replaced by one generic GUEST_TESTPMD_PARAMS, which allows to modify any of existing testpmd parameters. Detection of testpmd execution was changed to be independent on TXQ flags setting. Documentation was modified to reflect GUEST_TESTPMD change. Also doc formatting was fixed at several places.

2016-10-09CLI: add Multiqueue params.Antonio Fischetti1-0/+12
This patch implements the following new CLI parameters that can be used in the --test-params list. 1. guest_nic_queues, which overrides all GUEST_NIC_QUEUES values 2. guest_testpmd_txq, which overrides all GUEST_TESTPMD_TXQ 3. guest_testpmd_rxq, which overrides all GUEST_TESTPMD_RXQ 4. guest_testpmd_nb_cores, which overrides all GUEST_TESTPMD_NB_CORES values 5. guest_testpmd_cpu_mask, which overrides all GUEST_TESTPMD_CPU_MASK values 6. vswitch_dpdk_multi_queues, which overrides VSWITCH_DPDK_MULTI_QUEUES 7. guest_smp, which overrides all GUEST_SMP values 8. guest_core_binding, which overrides all GUEST_CORE_BINDING values When they are present in the CLI the corresponding settings from the configuration files will be overridden. As an example a usage can be: ./vsperf --test-params "guest_nic_queues=2;guest_testpmd_txq=1;\ guest_testpmd_rxq=1;guest_testpmd_nb_cores=1"... v2: rebase + rework to add other CLI params as suggested and update doc. v3: changes in 'testusage.rst' doc.

2016-10-05integration: Test vHost User numa awarenessMartin Klozik1-0/+177
Open vSwitch with DPDK can optimize memory usage in case of NUMA architecture to avoid unnecessary memory access across NUMA slots. In a nutshell, PMD threads serving virtual NICs are co-located at the same NUMA slot as QEMU instance, which is using these NICs. This patch adds new (functional) integration testcase, which verifies OVS vHost User numa awareness feature. Step driven test objects were updated to allow a call of OS utilies and evaluation of conditions. Also the documentation was updated with the list of supported test objects and their methods.

2016-09-15paths: Support binary packagesMartin Klozik2-20/+37
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.

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.

Recent changes: * Userguide update * Move src/dstport from L2 to L4 (conf, TCL) * Fix 'TestCase' object has no attribute '_tunnel_operation' error when running non overlay tests * Fix merge conflict * Move doc to docs/userguide/integration.rst * Add setting of DUT_NIC1_MAC and setting of other variables to docs/userguide/integration.rst Change-Id: Ia44f8888ef727831543c80f5c98c866686c5c92c JIRA: VSPERF-190 Signed-off-by: Dino Simeon Madarang <dino.simeonx.madarang@intel.com> Signed-off-by: Robert Wojciechowicz <robertx.wojciechowicz@intel.com> Signed-off-by: Timo Puha <timox.puha@intel.com> Reviewed-by: Maryam Tahhan <maryam.tahhan@intel.com> Reviewed-by: Billy O Mahony <billy.o.mahony@intel.com> Reviewed-by: Martin Klozik <martinx.klozik@intel.com> Reviewed-by: Al Morton <acmorton@att.com> Reviewed-by: Brian Castelli <brian.castelli@spirent.com
2016-02-03Add OVS tunnel encapsulation performance testDino Simeon Madarang2-0/+98
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.
