2016-11-09cli: Modify configuration via CLIMartin Klozik1-25/+9
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.

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.

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.

Supported modes are: "normal" - execute vSwitch, VNF and traffic generator; "trafficgen" - execute only traffic generator; "trafficgen-off" - execute vSwitch and VNF. Normal mode is selected by default. In case that trafficgen mode is selected, then various --test-params could be specified to affect traffic generator configuration. These parameters include traffic type, frame rate, bidirectional and scalability settings. Selection of transport protocol is not supported by IxNet yet (UDP is enforced), thus modification of transport protocol from command line is not supported too.

Firewall is disabled directly by call of iptables to avoid dependency on distribution specific firewall handling. Default configuration values in 04_vnf.conf were set according to vloop_vnf to make its usage easy. Values are generic enough to work well also with other images. Parameters VANILLA_NICx_NAME and vanilla_nicx_name were renamed to GUEST_NICx_NAME and guest_nicx_name respectively, because they are used for all vswitch versions. Functionality of CLI options was fixed. Default values of GUEST_NICx_NAME were changed to work with vloop_vnf image. Bug with modification of TRAFFIC_DEFAULTS values has been fixed. Deep copy is used and l2 and l3 dictionaries are correctly updated to avoid issues. Qemu disc emulation has been set to SCSI again to avoid error messages related to non-functional DMA in syslog. Appropriate kernel modules were added into vloop_vnf to support scsi disk emulation during boot.

2015-12-14bugfix: Fix failure caused by unset localeMartin Klozik1-1/+1
In case, that VSPERF detects missing locale settings, it will set language and encodding settings to default values specified by configuration parameter DEFAULT_LOCALE. Localized external commands with output parsed by VSPERF are executed with modified locale to ensure correct VSPERF function. Locale settings for such commands is specified by configuration parameter DEFAULT_CMD_LOCALE.

2015-12-02vnfs: configurable loopback application support inside VMMartin Klozik1-4/+162
For PVP and PVVP deployments, traffic inside virtual machines must be forwarded between its interfaces. There are several forwarding options supported by VSPERF, including DPDK testpmd, Huawei l2fwd kernel module and linux bridge. Another option is, that VM image has built in forwarding functionality and vsperf doesn't configure it itself. User can select VM loopback application by configuration option GUEST_LOOPBACK (per VM) or by SCALAR cli option guest_loopback (global settings). Selected guest loopback application(s) will be written into test results CSV file and test report MD file. Default wildcarded guest login prompt was added. Guest startup guarding timer can be configured. Path to OVS kernel module has been fixed.

Support for PVP and PVVP scenerios using Vanilla OVS was added. VMs are configured to forward traffic between virtual interfaces by standard linux capabilities. Traffic generator script was updated to accept MAC and IP address configuration to allow VM forwarding configuration.
