2018-05-28connections: Introduction of generic APIMartin Klozik1-38/+170
Redesign of vSwitch and vSwitch controller classes, to use generic connection methods for configuration of vSwitch. This API is more generic and vSwitch agnostic, thus deployment scenarios like P2P, PVP, PVVP (i.e. PVVPx) can be used for all (currently) supported vSwitches. Usage of new API will simplify an introduction of new vSwitches in the future. This patchset introduces following changes: * OVS: implementation of add_, del_, dump_ connection(s) and their validation methods * VPP: bidir parameter removed - it is up to the deployment scenario implementation to take care about bidirectional connections * P2P and PXP controllers were updated to use connection methods instead of flow related methods. Thus standard TCs will support both OVS and VPP. NOTE, PVPV is not supported for VPP (yet?). * refactoring of vSwitch interfaces and inherited classes * VPP step driven TCs were replaced by standard TCs with appropriate deployment scenarios. This is for backward compatibility with TC reporting. Once reporting of VPP TC results into results DB will be modified, this TCs can be removed. * OVS routing tables support was generalized to support P2P and PXP deployments and step driven TCs. Usage of OVS routing tables is now configurable (turned off by default) for better comparison of results among various vSwitches. * Multistream pre_installed_flows feature was generalized to support P2P and PXP deployments and step driven TCs. * IxNet: TRAFFIC['l4']['dstport'] will be used as a start value for port iteration if L4 multistream feature is enabled. * OVS: default flow template is now configurable via OVS_FLOW_TEMPLATE * OVS: support of TRAFFIC['flow_type']='ip' was generalized to work with connection methods (i.e. with P2P and PXP deployments and step driven TCs) * integration TCs: modification of integration TCs and their macros to utilize new generic connection based API * CI: list of TCs for VERIFY & MERGE jobs was changed to run the same generic tests for both OVS & VPP * documentation update * small fixes and improvements JIRA: VSPERF-579 Change-Id: If4e6e6037929eab9f16c2bbcb8a0fb30e5d6f9b0 Signed-off-by: Martin Klozik <martin.klozik@tieto.com> Reviewed-by: Richard Elias <richard.elias@tieto.com> Reviewed-by: Al Morton <acmorton@att.com> Reviewed-by: Christian Trautman <ctrautma@redhat.com> Reviewed-by: Sridhar Rao <sridhar.rao@spirent.com>

2018-04-19vswitches/ovs: delete bridges on stopJulien Meunier1-0/+4
On stop, remove all created bridges in order to clean the working environment. Moreover, when an OVS bridge is deleted, remove also all attached ports. By the way, as the context manager of OFBridge is never used by the current test implementation and by any OVS vswitches in order to manage their creation/deletion, let's remove this dead code.

2017-03-20vpp: Reporting update related to VPPMartin Klozik1-0/+8
VSPERF reports were updated to contain vSwitch name. In case of VPP, it is not possible to read its version if VPP is not running. Thus VSPERF was enhanced to support tool version check during its runtime. This mechanism can be enhanced to support e.g. VNF in the future.

All python files must reach pylint score 10/10. This will be regularly verified by Jenkins jobs to keep constant code quality. VSPERF specific pylintrc file was updated according to the vsperf coding standards. Distro version included in reports will be slightly different, due to migration to new python package distro. Previously used platform.distro() will be deprecated since python 3.7.

2016-09-15paths: Support binary packagesMartin Klozik1-31/+50
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. This can be configured perf tool, so various combinations of source and binary version are supported. Together with new configuration also a handling of kernel modules was modified to automatically detect and load module dependencies.

The test case for verifying the vxlan tunneling feature without using any ingress tunnel traffic. The virtual switch(OVS) is configured to mangle and generate tunnel traffic in the deployment. The packet flow in the test case is as follows TRAFFIC-IN --> [ENCAP-PKT] --> [MOD-PKT] --> [DECAP-PKT] --> TRAFFIC-OUT ENCAP-PKT - Encapsulate the ingress packet to a tunnel type. MOD-PKT - Modify the tunnel header to match the following decap interface. DECAP-PKT - Decapsulate the newly generated tunneled packet.

Generic support for integration testcases with first set of tests for vswitch testing. New test option "TestSteps" has been introduced to define test step by step directly in configuration file. In case that this concept will be accepted, there are plenty of possibilities for future improvements. For example: * use it also for performance tests without explicit call of validation methods * introduce step macros for repetitive scenarios, so new tests can be easily written * further generalization, which would go beyond usage of controllers and will operate directly with vswitch, vnf and trafficgen objects Change-Id: Ifad166c8ef9cfbda6694682fe6b3421e0e97bbf2 JIRA: VSPERF-212 Signed-off-by: Martin Klozik <martinx.klozik@intel.com> Reviewed-by: Maryam Tahhan <maryam.tahhan@intel.com> Reviewed-by: Al Morton <acmorton@att.com> Reviewed-by: Christian Trautman <ctrautma@redhat.com> Reviewed-by: Brian Castelli <brian.castelli@spirent.com>
