2018-02-23Trex_speed_improvement: Add logic for dealing with high speed cardsChristian Trautman1-4/+49
Adds configuration options and logic to detect maximum supported speed of T-Rex server side cards. 1. Adds logic to pull maximum supported speed from port info 2. Adds forcable option to have user specify maximum speed 3. If logic cannot detect speed from port_info because it is not available or the forcable option is not set it will assume 10G speeds. 4. Tested on Intel XXV25G and Mellanox ConnectX-5 cards 5. Added packet structure logging to show packet info for better debugging capabilities 6. Adds core mask to take advantage of multiple cores if server is started with more than default number of cores 7. Adds packets lost logging to RFC2544 Throughput testing JIRA: VSPERF-559 Change-Id: I7fcfda7ccc408c30830950ee3668e01b8624c20a Signed-off-by: Christian Trautman <ctrautma@redhat.com>

2018-01-12trex: Add support for traffic captureMartin Klozik1-10/+49
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.

2017-12-19Trex_2544_verification: Add verification functionality to Trex codeChristian Trautman1-32/+87
- Adds T-Rex verification step as implemented by other trafficgens - Adds check in rfc2544 loop for if no packets are received to fail test immediately - Refactors the trial code to support the verification option - Adds trial_run function - Removed unused line speed configuration setting JIRA: VSPERF-553 Change-Id: Ie324fe8fb6bf79fe0dc337b91af2bf83e901a8ab Signed-off-by: Christian Trautman <ctrautma@redhat.com>
2017-12-13trex_learning: Add learning packet option to T-Rex testingChristian Trautman1-0/+18
Adds packet learning option which is available on other Traffic generators as a feature. This adds this feature to the Trex implementation inside of VSPerf. JIRA: VSPERF-547 Change-Id: Iaf4d0721b22eb780c25e29295c112d4fcb47b22c Signed-off-by: Christian Trautman <ctrautma@redhat.com>

2017-11-09paths: Modify algorithm for PATHS verificationMartin Klozik1-5/+14
VSPERF verifies if PATHS to the tools (vSwitch, VNF, etc.) are valid. This check was modified to take into the account tools required by selected testcase. It will help to avoid runtime errors triggered by missing tools, which are not essential for testcase execution.

2017-09-25trex_prom: Add promiscuous option for trex for SRIOV testsChristian Trautman1-0/+4
Adds option to enable promiscuous mode for Trex traffic generator to allow for SR-IOV tests to work correctly. Trex by default only accepts packets based on destination MAC address matching what is configured on server in /etc/trex-cfg.yaml. This removes that limitation since SR-IOV tests require mac addresses to be modified in the generated packets to correctly route packets to the relevant VFs.
