2017-01-13testpmd_pvp: Adds pkt_fwd to allow pvp topology testingChristian Trautman1-1/+18
Requires DPDK 16.11 or greater to support vdev flags. Initial support for TestPMD to support guests. Allows vsperf to execute TestPMD as a switch for pvp test scenarios. Can be increased in functionality later to support multiple guest configs. JIRA: VSPERF-406 Change-Id: I67a5a355c990ca6cfcbb5845a2beaf1c1f21f5f0 Signed-off-by: Christian Trautman <ctrautma@redhat.com>
2016-04-14sriov: Support of SRIOV and Qemu PCI passthroughMartin Klozik1-1/+1
Generic support of SRIOV has been added. Virtual interfaces can be used in multiplei scenarios instead of physical NICs. Virtual functions can be directly accessed from VM by PCI passthrough method. Another option is to use VFs with vSwtich to evaluate impact on performance. Additonal modifications: * Automatic detection of NIC details has been added to simplify configuration. * Obsoleted configuration options have been removed. * Logging usage within vsperf script was fixed. * Vsperf main was refactored and final cleanup function added. * Configurable forwarding mode of TestPMD executed inside VM.

2016-01-21Add testpmd as vswitch classRobert Wojciechowicz1-0/+87
The purpose of using testpmd instead of OVS is to get the baseline of the DUT when performing hardware offloading operations. There are supported different checksum calculation and txq flags settings.
