feat(astf): Support framesizes for ASTF
- No support for IMIX.
+ Fix a bad bug in padding (most ASTF profiles had wrong frame sizes).
+ Fix a big typo in TCP PPS profiles (s->c was not data, just RST).
+ Control transaction size via ASTF_N_DATA_FRAMES env variable.
- Default value 5 leads to transactions smaller than before.
+ It ensures transaction is one burst (per direction) even for jumbo.
+ Edit autogen to set supported frame sizes based on suite id.
+ Both TCP and UDP use the same values:
+ 64B for CPS (exact for UDP, nominal for TCP).
+ 100B, 1518B and 9000B for TPUT and PPS.
- TCP TPUT achievable minimum is 70B.
+ Used 100B to leave room for possible IPv6 ASTF tests.
+ Separate function for code reused by vpp and trex tests.
- I do not really like the new "copy and edit" approach added here.
+ But it is a quick edit, better autogen refactor is low priority.
+ Consider both established and transitory sessions as valid.
- Mostly for compatibility with 2202 behavior and to avoid ramp-ups.
- Assuming both session states have similar enough VPP CPU overhead.
+ Added a TODO to investigate and maybe reconsider later.
+ Update the state timeout value to 240s.
+ That is the default for TCP (for transitory state).
- UDP could keep using 300s.
+ But I prefer UDP and TCP to behave as similarly as possible.
+ Use TRex tunables to get the exact frame size (for data packets).
- It is not clear why the recipe for MSS has to be this complicated.
+ Move code away from profile init, as frame size is not known there.
+ Change internal profile API, so values related to MSS are passed.
+ Lower ramp-up rate for TCP TPUT tests.
+ Because without lower rate, jumbo fails on packet loss in ramp-up.
+ UDP TPUT ramp-up rate also lowered (just to keep suites more similar).
+ Distinguish one-direction and aggregated average frame size.
+ Update keyword documentation where the distiction matters.
+ One-direction is needed for turning bandwidth limit to TPS limit.
+ Aggregated is needed for correct NDRPDR bandwidth result value.
- TCP TPUT will always be few percent below bidirectional maximum.
+ That is unavoidable, as one direction sends more control packets.
+ Add runtime consistency checks so future refactors are safer.
+ Fail if padding requested would be negative.
+ Fail if suite claims unexpected values for packets per transaction.
+ Edit the 4 types of ASTF profiles to keep them similar to each other.
+ Move UDP TPUT limit value from a field back to direct argument.
+ Stop pretending first UDP packet is not data.
+ Apply small improvements where convenient.
+ Replace "aggregate" with "aggregated" where possible.
+ To lower probability of any future typos in variable names.
+ Avoid calling Set Numeric Frame Sizes twice.
+ Code formatting, keyword documentation, code comments, ...
+ Add TODOs for less important code quality improvements.
- Postpone updating of methodology pages to a subsequent change.
