2022-03-31feat: boostrap hicn 22.02Luca Muscariello1-1/+1
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-590] Removed andjacency type specific face implementationAlberto Compagno1-1/+3
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

- Handling the case in which a pushed data hit an existing pit entry (created after the data has gone through the data_pcslookup_node). In this case the data packet is forwarded to the data_fwd_node - Handling the case in which the hash table (in pcs) is full and it is not possible to allocate another bucket. In this case the packet is dropped. - Copying packets whose length is less than 128B. VPP prevents to create a chain of vlib_buffer where the first, or middle, vlib_buffer are holding less then 128B. [HICN-72] - Assign a /128 subnet to the producer app face. Change-Id: I6c19d6d127774a7f59ac69ac965d4bcd6a72becc Signed-off-by: Alberto Compagno <acompagn+fdio@cisco.com>

2019-01-19Improved performance on data-fwd node:Alberto Compagno1-5/+0
- Removed full pit entry initialization in favor of a lighter initialization on few fields - Squeezed pit entry size in order to store only the number of incomplete faces (as set in HICN_PARAM_PIT_ENTRY_PHOPS_MAX). The bitmap size is now determined by HICN_PARAM_FACES_MAX and optimized to do a fast lookup Replaced the field is_appface with the field flags in the hicn_buffer_t: - is_appface is now a flag with value 0x01 (HICN_BUFFER_FLAGS_FACE_IS_APP) - Added flag HICN_BUFFER_FLAGS_PKT_LESS_TWO_CL (0x02) to handle the copy of pkt with length < than 2*CACHE_LINES (in this case cloning is prevented by the cloning function in vpp). Such flag is initialized by the incoming face of the pkt. Change-Id: Ia956fd5719a28ee29f7fa2fd23d283964743efd8 Signed-off-by: Alberto Compagno <acompagn+fdio@cisco.com>
