2017-03-15vpp: Initial support of VPP vSwitchMartin Klozik5-18/+68
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.

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.

2016-11-09cli: Modify configuration via CLIMartin Klozik6-41/+83
In the past, only a few configuration parameters could be modified via --test-params CLI argument and it was not easy to find out their complete list. This patch adds support for generic modification of any configuration parameter via CLI argument --test-params or by "Parameters" section of testcase definition. Thus it is possible to customize a vsperf configuration environment per testcase or for each vsperf execution. Old CLI parameters duration, pkt_sizes, rfc2544_tests and rfc2889_trials were renamed to TRAFFICGEN_DURATION, TRAFFICGEN_PKT_SIZES, TRAFFICGEN_RFC2544_TESTS and TRAFFICGEN_RFC2889_TRIALS to be consistent with other configuration parameters.

2016-10-27teststeps: Generic support of step driven testsMartin Klozik3-573/+652
In the past, step driven testcases were supported only by integration testcases. This patch adds generic support of TestSteps for both integration and performance testcases. Step driven test were improved to support modification of existing deployment. As part of the patch a refactoring of traffic controllers were performed. Traffic controllers were modified to support trafficgen-off and trafficgen-pause modes in all possible ways of trafficgen invocation.
