2017-05-22vhost: migrate to use device infra for worker thread assignment, rx-mode.Steven1-0/+20
and add adaptive mode support to receive queue - Migrate vhost to use device infra which does the interface/queue to worker thread assignment. - Retire vhost thread CLI and corresponding code which assigns interface/queue to worker thread. set interface placement should be used instead to customize the interface/queue to worker thread assignment. - Retire vhost interrupt/polling option when creating vhost-user interface. Instead, set interface rx-mode should be used. - Add code in vnet_device_input_unassign_thread to change the node state to interrupt if the last polling interface has left the worker thread for the device of the corresponding interface/queue. - Add adaptive mode support. The node state is set to interrupt initially. When the scheduler detects a burst of traffic, it switches the input node to polling. Then we inform the device that we don't need interrupt notification. When the traffic subsides, the scheduler switches the input node back to interrupt. Then we immediately tell the driver that we want interrupt notification again. - Remove some duplicate code in vlib/main.c Change-Id: Id19bb1b9e50e6521c6464f470f5825c26924d3a8 Signed-off-by: Steven <sluong@cisco.com>
2017-05-10device: Add callback for set interface rx-modeSteven1-0/+1
- When the interface rx-mode is changed via CLI, the corresponding device may want to know about it and to reset the driver. This patch is to add the callback. - In the function vnet_hw_interface_set_rx_mode, it appears it is missing a line hw->rx_mode_by_queue[queue_id] = mode because the function is checking if the new mode is the same as hw->rx_mode_by_queue which is initialized to POLLING. So if the function is called to change the mode to interrupt, it just returns without doing anything. This is the check that I am talking about in the same function. if (hw->rx_mode_by_queue[queue_id] == mode) return 0; Change-Id: Iaca2651c43e0ae3fda6fd8dc128e247b0851cc65 Signed-off-by: Steven <sluong@cisco.com>

2017-04-11Devices: set interface placement does not remove the old interface placementSteven1-3/+0
The command set interface placement is supposed to remove the existing interface placement and add a new interface placement based on the given options. My quick test for the CLI shows that the old interface placement continues to exist. But the new interface placement is also added. The bug exists in vnet_device_input_unassign_thread which checks the old thread index is the same as the passed thread index and skips the deletion if they are the same. The fix is to remove the check which is not supposed to be there. Change-Id: Ib055721fad47513949a03b3cb6dc292bd19fd1e8 Signed-off-by: Steven <sluong@cisco.com>

2017-04-06Use thread local storage for thread indexDamjan Marion1-30/+31
This patch deprecates stack-based thread identification, Also removes requirement that thread stacks are adjacent. Finally, possibly annoying for some folks, it renames all occurences of cpu_index and cpu_number with thread index. Using word "cpu" is misleading here as thread can be migrated ti different CPU, and also it is not related to linux cpu index.

2017-03-20vnet: add device-input threadplacement infraDamjan Marion1-0/+240
This change adds two new debug CLI command: - "show interface placmenet" to display which thread (main or worker) is responsible for processing interface rx queue vpp# show interface placement Thread 0 (vpp_main): node af-packet-input: host-vpp1 queue 0 Thread 1 (vpp_wk_0): node af-packet-input: host-virbr0 queue 0 Thread 2 (vpp_wk_1): node af-packet-input: host-vpp2 queue 0 host-lxcbr0 queue 0 - "set interface placmenet" to assign thread (main or worker) which process specific interface rx queue vpp# set interface placement host-vpp1 queue 0 main Change-Id: Id4dd00cf2b05e10fae2125ac7cb4411b446c5e9c Signed-off-by: Damjan Marion <damarion@cisco.com>
2017-03-17Fix IP feature ordering.Neale Ranns1-1/+0
Drop comes before lookup when enabled. is_first_or_last is not required when setting a feature, the anchor is added in find_config_with_features(). Don't make the PG interfaces automatically L3 enabled, this way we can have tests that check the L3 protocol disbaled behaviour.
