memif: jumbo frames support
Current memif interface supports frame size up to 2048. This patch is to enhance memif to support jumbo frames. On tx (writing buffers to the ring), keep reading the next buffer in vlib when the flag VLIB_BUFFER_NEXT_PRESENT and merge it to the same ring entry. Use descriptor chaining if the buffer is not big enough. On rx (reading buffers from the ring), if the packet is greater than 2048, create multiple vlib buffers, chained with the VLIB_BUFFER_NEXT_PRESENT. Testing: Because the ping command provided by VPP does not support jumbo frames, I have to use linux ping. Here is the set up that I use for testing. VM1 --- vhost ---- VPP1 --- memif --- VPP2 --- vhost --- VM2 Create vhost-user interfaces between VM1 and VPP1 and between VPP2 and VM2 VM configuration: Set the interface mtu on the VM, e.g 9216 to support jumbo frames. create static route and static arp on VM1 to VM2 and vice versa. Use iperf3 or ping -s 8000 from VM1 to VM2 or vice versa. Sample run sluong@ubuntu:~$ ping 131.1.1.1 -c1 -s 8000 ping 131.1.1.1 -c1 -s 8000 PING 131.1.1.1 (131.1.1.1) 8000(8028) bytes of data. 8008 bytes from 131.1.1.1: icmp_seq=1 ttl=62 time=0.835 ms --- 131.1.1.1 ping statistics --- 1 packets transmitted, 1 received, 0% packet loss, time 0ms rtt min/avg/max/mdev = 0.835/0.835/0.835/0.000 ms sluong@ubuntu:~$ DBGvpp# sh interface memif0 Name Idx State Counter Count memif0 1 up rx packets 1 rx bytes 8042 tx packets 1 tx bytes 8042 ip4 1 DBGvpp# Change-Id: I469bece3d45a790dceaee1d6a8e976bd018feee2 Signed-off-by: Steven <sluong@cisco.com>
