2018-05-28connections: Introduction of generic APIMartin Klozik1-21/+4
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>
2018-01-05vswitch: Improve add_phy_port error messagesMartin Klozik1-4/+2
In case that vSwitch can't add required number of physical ports, then error message should be printed. Previous implementation was not consistent. Thus error handling has been united across all vswitches and message explicitly states the cause of the failure. NOTE: A better solution would be a refactoring of all vSwitch classes to follow VPP port handling and to move port related structures and physical port check into parent vswitch class.

2017-03-15vpp: Initial support of VPP vSwitchMartin Klozik1-0/+15
Support of VPP was implemented into VSPERF. Initial implementation uses step driven testcases to configure P2P, PVP and PVVP network scenarios. These testcases were prepared for three RFC2544 traffic types, i.e. throughput, continuous stream and back to back. VPP configuration is driven by new configuration option VSWITCH_VPP_ARGS. It is possible to use three types of l2 port connection supported by VPP, i.e. l2 xconnect (default), l2patch and l2 bridge features. Configuration is driven by parameter VSWITCH_VPP_L2_CONNECT_MODE.

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.

Adds multi-queue for vanilla OVS using virtio-net. TunTap ports will use multi_queue parameter when ports are created/deleted if guest nic queues are enabled and vswitch is ovs vanilla. Virtio net will now add guest nic queues to qemu command line if appropriate. Reworked multi-queue documentation to reflect these changes. Adds vhost net thread affinitization which is recommended when performing vanilla ovs multi-queue. Guests will require ethtool if using l2fwd or linux bridge as the loopback application when vanilla ovs multi-queue is enabled. Modified dpdk setting in vswitch conf to be better worded for separation from vanilla ovs multi-queue. Updated release and installation doc for new vloop image that includes required ethtool utility.

Measure OVS DPDK and native VXLAN/GRE/GENEVE encapsulation performance. This patch creates a new deployment scenario, Overlay_P2P. The DUT is configured as a TEP (Tunnel Endpoint) which performs encapsulation of frames and sends traffic to the 2nd traffic generator port. The traffic generator in this case receives an encapsulated frame. No decapsulation is performed in this testcase. Introduce a vsperf param, --run-integration, to filter tests to integration tests. When running integration tests, variables defined in the directory conf/integration/*conf as well as the conf/*.conf are available. This test case requires DPDK 2.1.0 and OVS master - 6bb4a18 or newer.

2016-01-21testcase: scalability - configurable installation of flows to the vswitchMartin Klozik1-2/+2
Stream specific flows can be pre-installed into the vswitch based on the value of testcase specific configuration option "Pre-installed Flows". In case, it is set to 'Yes', then specific flow for each stream will be inserted into the switch. Otherwise only generic flows will be installed. Default value of "Pre-installed Flows" is set to 'No'. Its value can be overridden by CLI parameter pre-installed_flows. This configuration parameter is an enhancement of "MultiSream" feature and it is ignored if "MultiStream" is disabled. Python module 'netaddr' is required by this implementation and it has been added to requirements.txt file.
