*** Keywords ***
| Get Average Frame Size
| | [Documentation]
| | ... | Framesize can be either integer in case of a single packet
| | ... | in stream, or set of packets in case of IMIX type or simmilar.
| |
| | ... | *Arguments:*
| | ... | - frame_size - Framesize. Type: integer or string
| |
| | ... | *Returns:*
| | ... | Average frame size. Type: float
| |
| | ... | *Example:*
| |
| | ... | \| Get Average Frame Size \| IMIX_v4_1 \|
| |
| | [Arguments] | ${frame_size}
| |
| | Return From Keyword If | '${frame_size}' == 'IMIX_v4_1' | ${353.83333}
| | ${frame_size} = | Convert To Number | ${frame_size}
| | Return From Keyword | ${frame_size}

| Set Max Rate And Jumbo
| | [Documentation]
| | ... | Input framesize can be either integer in case of a single packet
| | ... | in stream, or IMIX string defining mix of packets.
| | ... | For jumbo frames detection, the maximal packet size is relevant.
| | ... | For maximal transmit rate, the average packet size is relevant.
| | ... | In both cases, encapsulation overhead (if any) has effect.
| | ... | The maximal rate is computed from NIC name.
| | ... | The implementation works by mapping from exact
| | ... | whitelisted NIC names.
| | ... | The mapping is hardcoded in nic_limits.yaml
| | ... | TODO: Make the mapping from NIC names case insensistive.
| |
| | ... | TODO: Make pps limit also definable per NIC.
| |
| | ... | This keyword computes maximal unidirectional transmit rate
| | ... | and jumbo boolean (some suites need that for configuration decisions).
| | ... | To streamline suite autogeneration, both input and output values
| | ... | are communicated as test (or broader scope) variables,
| | ... | instead of explicit arguments and return values.
| |
| | ... | *Test (or broader scope) variables read:*
| | ... | - nic_name - Name of bottleneck NIC. Type: string
| | ... | - overhead - Overhead in bytes. Default: 0. Type: integer
| | ... | - frame_size - L2 Frame Size [B] or IMIX string. Type: int or str
| |
| | ... | *Test variables set:*
| | ... | - max_rate - Calculated unidirectional maximal transmit rate [pps].
| | ... | Type: float
| | ... | - jumbo - Jumbo boolean, true if jumbo packet support has to be
| | ... | enabled. Type: boolean
| |
| | ... | *Example:*
| |
| | ... | \| Set test Variable \| \${frame_size} \| IMIX_v4_1 \|
| | ... | \| Set Max Rate And Jumbo \|
| |
| | # Negative overhead is possible, if DUT-DUT traffic is less encapsulated
| | # than TG-DUT traffic.
| | # TODO: Re-check overhead values in suites with both traffics encapsulated.
| | # TODO: Improve layered setup to detect encap/decap and update overhead.
