2022-03-31feat: boostrap hicn 22.02Luca Muscariello10-553/+537
The current patch provides several new features, improvements, bug fixes and also complete rewrite of entire components. - lib The hicn packet parser has been improved with a new packet format fully based on UDP. The TCP header is still temporarily supported but the UDP header will replace completely the new hicn packet format. Improvements have been made to make sure every packet parsing operation is made via this library. The current new header can be used as header between the payload and the UDP header or as trailer in the UDP surplus area to be tested when UDP options will start to be used. - hicn-light The portable packet forwarder has been completely rewritten from scratch with the twofold objective to improve performance and code size but also to drop dependencies such as libparc which is now removed by the current implementation. - hicn control the control library is the agent that is used to program the packet forwarders via their binary API. This component has benefited from significant improvements in terms of interaction model which is now event driven and more robust to failures. - VPP plugin has been updated to support VPP 22.02 - transport Major improvement have been made to the RTC protocol, to the support of IO modules and to the security sub system. Signed manifests are the default data authenticity and integrity framework. Confidentiality can be enabled by sharing the encryption key to the prod/cons layer. The library has been tested with group key based applications such as broadcast/multicast and real-time on-line meetings with trusted server keys or MLS. - testing Unit testing has been introduced using GoogleTest. One third of the code base is covered by unit testing with priority on critical features. Functional testing has also been introduce using Docker, linux bridging and Robot Framework to define test with Less Code techniques to facilitate the extension of the coverage.

2020-05-04[HICN-603] Cleanup code for managing routeAlberto Compagno4-923/+754
- Remove old code to add and remove hicn route. Routes are now added only through the ip route commands/apis - Adjusted the cli to set the strategy for a particular prefix - Adjusted libtransport consumer and producer app creation - Adjusted sysrepo plugin. Added hicn enable and disable and removed old api related to hicn routes and hicn faces - Adjusted libhicnctrl. Only routes api and listener are now available for hicn-plugin Signed-off-by: Alberto Compagno <acompagn+fdio@cisco.com> Change-Id: Ib4f7f45ba0b99253d60a9da2b295d6e783e5cd51
2020-05-04[HICN-590] Removed andjacency type specific face implementationAlberto Compagno1-132/+11
Changes in the new implementation are: - the adjacency index is replaced with a dpo that allows the single face node to dispatch the packet to the right vlib node. - local and remote address in the face are replaced with a single nat address which is used to perform the nat operation when rewriting an interest or a data (in case of tunnels the nat address will be equal to 0) - the list of next hop in the load balance is no longer a list of dpos but a list of face id (this makes the code easier and increases the number of next hop we supports) Signed-off-by: Alberto Compagno <acompagn+fdio@cisco.com> Change-Id: I4ac2b4eb09425bfe1b3ca9f82d7d0ff564297b0d

Supported messages are add, del, get, dump, get. Each message contains a face id and the expected message has different fields based on the face type. The binary api specific for ip faces is still available for compatibility but deprecated.
