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 Compagno1-2/+1
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
2019-11-22[HICN-405] Added application face deleteAlberto Compagno1-0/+1
Added two new messages in the binary api: - hicn_api_face_cons_del to delete a consumer face - hicn_api_face_prod_del to delete a producer face Added the corresponding commands in the vpp_api_test for debugging and testing Reworked the cache policy structure to add a new function that flash the content store from the content coming from the destroyed producer face. This is required since the CS while each producer face has its own lru list. Removing only the producer face without flushing the CS from the content coming from the producer face will lead to a segfault in case there is a hit in the CS as the lru no longer exists and it won't be possible to update the head of the lru.
