2018-03-23python: Pylint 1.8.2 code conformityRichard Elias1-5/+5
Updated master Python scripts to conform to the newer pylint 1.8.2 standard.

2018-01-11capture: Traffic capture examplesMartin Klozik1-0/+17
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.

2017-11-03teststeps: Improvements and bugfixing of teststepsMartin Klozik1-6/+2
This patch introduces several improvements and small bugfixes of teststeps. These changes were identified during implementation of OVS/DPDK regression tests. Patch content: * teststeps: step aliases were implemented * teststeps: improved filtering by regex for any step, which returns string or list of stings; filter will process all lines * teststeps: support for log object * teststeps: support for trafficgen get_results call * teststeps: configurable suppression of step validation * trafficgen: remove old results before traffic is executed * trafficgen: support for flow control on/off (IxNet) * trafficgen: support for configurable learning frames (IxNet) * trafficgen: support for runtime changes of TRAFFICGEN_PKT_SIZES, _DURATION and _LOSSRATE * vnf: flush pexpect output of previous commands * vnf: use execute_and_wait() to ensure correct cmds order * vnf: dpdk vHost User interface name set according to its type, e.g. dpdkvhostuserclient * vswitch: support for OVS restart * decap: simplify configuration of tunneling decapsulation tests * settings: values of all configuration options are restored after TC execution * modified formatting of test description used by --list * testcase name and description is logged before its execution * small bugfixes JIRA: VSPERF-539 Change-Id: I550ba0d897ece89abd3f33d6d66f545c4d863e7b Signed-off-by: Martin Klozik <martinx.klozik@intel.com> Reviewed-by: Al Morton <acmorton@att.com> Reviewed-by: Christian Trautman <ctrautma@redhat.com> Reviewed-by: Sridhar Rao <sridhar.rao@spirent.com> Reviewed-by: Trevor Cooper <trevor.cooper@intel.com>
2017-06-02tests: Improvement of step driven testcasesMartin Klozik1-11/+29
A set of improvements was introduced to enhance step driven testcases capabilities. Details: * delay among test steps is configurable by TEST_STEP_DELAY parameter * step driven tool function exec was renamed to exec_shell * new step driven tool function exec_python was introduced to execute a python code * new step driven object sleep was introduced to pause test execution for defined number of seconds. * fixed bug in settings.validate_getValue() to correctly validate access of parameters modified by TEST_PARAMS * new #PARAM() macro was introduced to allow references among configuration parameters * multistream support has been added into ixnetrfc2544v2.tcl, which is used for tunneling protocols test (op2p deployment) * fixed bug in op2p deployment to list interfaces and flows from both bridges involved in the test * test report updated to state exact rfcxxxx type of traffic type, e.g. rfc2544_continuous * test report of step driven testcases was updated to contain measured values from traffic generator in CSV report * method for ovs flow comparison was modified to normalize IPv4 CIDR network addr (e.g. 10.0.0.5/8 => 10.0.0.0/8) JIRA: VSPERF-512 Change-Id: Ib4f38dcdfbf3820dd766b25520da0ad0c81f3293 Signed-off-by: Martin Klozik <martinx.klozik@intel.com> Reviewed-by: Al Morton <acmorton@att.com> Reviewed-by: Christian Trautman <ctrautma@redhat.com> Reviewed-by: Sridhar Rao <sridhar.rao@spirent.com> Reviewed-by: Trevor Cooper <trevor.cooper@intel.com> Reviewed-by: Ciara Loftus <ciara.loftus@intel.com>
2016-10-05integration: Test vHost User numa awarenessMartin Klozik1-0/+90
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.
