docs: better docs, mv doxygen to sphinx
This patch refactors the VPP sphinx docs in order to make it easier to consume for external readers as well as VPP developers. It also makes sphinx the single source of documentation, which simplifies maintenance and operation. Most important updates are: - reformat the existing documentation as rst - split RELEASE.md and move it into separate rst files - remove section 'events' - remove section 'archive' - remove section 'related projects' - remove section 'feature by release' - remove section 'Various links' - make (Configuration reference, CLI docs, developer docs) top level items in the list - move 'Use Cases' as part of 'About VPP' - move 'Troubleshooting' as part of 'Getting Started' - move test framework docs into 'Developer Documentation' - add a 'Contributing' section for gerrit, docs and other contributer related infos - deprecate doxygen and test-docs targets - redirect the "make doxygen" target to "make docs" Type: refactor Change-Id: I552a5645d5b7964d547f99b1336e2ac24e7c209f Signed-off-by: Nathan Skrzypczak <nathan.skrzypczak@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Andrew Yourtchenko <ayourtch@gmail.com>

-Connecting the two Containers
-_____________________________
-
-Now for connecting these two linux containers to VPP and pinging between them.
-
-Enter container *cone*, and check the current network configuration:
-
-.. code-block:: console
-
- root@cone:/# ip -o a
- 1: lo inet 127.0.0.1/8 scope host lo\ valid_lft forever preferred_lft forever
- 1: lo inet6 ::1/128 scope host \ valid_lft forever preferred_lft forever
- 30: veth0 inet 10.0.3.157/24 brd 10.0.3.255 scope global veth0\ valid_lft forever preferred_lft forever
- 30: veth0 inet6 fe80::216:3eff:fee2:d0ba/64 scope link \ valid_lft forever preferred_lft forever
- 32: veth_link1 inet6 fe80::2c9d:83ff:fe33:37e/64 scope link \ valid_lft forever preferred_lft forever
-
-You can see that there are three network interfaces, *lo, veth0*, and *veth_link1*.
-
-Notice that *veth_link1* has no assigned IP.
-
-Check if the interfaces are down or up:
-
-.. code-block:: console
-
- root@cone:/# ip link
- 1: lo: <LOOPBACK,UP,LOWER_UP> mtu 65536 qdisc noqueue state UNKNOWN mode DEFAULT group default qlen 1
- link/loopback 00:00:00:00:00:00 brd 00:00:00:00:00:00
- 30: veth0@if31: <BROADCAST,MULTICAST,UP,LOWER_UP> mtu 1500 qdisc noqueue state UP mode DEFAULT group default qlen 1000
- link/ether 00:16:3e:e2:d0:ba brd ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff link-netnsid 0
- 32: veth_link1@if33: <BROADCAST,MULTICAST,UP,LOWER_UP> mtu 1500 qdisc noqueue state UP mode DEFAULT group default qlen 1000
- link/ether 2e:9d:83:33:03:7e brd ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff link-netnsid 0
-
-.. _networkNote:
-
-.. note::
-
- Take note of the network index for **veth_link1**. In our case, it 32, and its parent index (the host machine, not the containers) is 33, shown by **veth_link1@if33**. Yours will most likely be different, but **please take note of these index's**.
-
-Make sure your loopback interface is up, and assign an IP and gateway to veth_link1.
-
-.. code-block:: console
-
- root@cone:/# ip link set dev lo up
- root@cone:/# ip addr add 172.16.1.2/24 dev veth_link1
- root@cone:/# ip link set dev veth_link1 up
- root@cone:/# dhclient -r
- root@cone:/# ip route add default via 172.16.1.1 dev veth_link1
-
-Here, the IP is 172.16.1.2/24 and the gateway is 172.16.1.1.
-
-Run some commands to verify the changes:
-
-.. code-block:: console
-
- root@cone:/# ip -o a
- 1: lo inet 127.0.0.1/8 scope host lo\ valid_lft forever preferred_lft forever
- 1: lo inet6 ::1/128 scope host \ valid_lft forever preferred_lft forever
- 30: veth0 inet6 fe80::216:3eff:fee2:d0ba/64 scope link \ valid_lft forever preferred_lft forever
- 32: veth_link1 inet 172.16.1.2/24 scope global veth_link1\ valid_lft forever preferred_lft forever
- 32: veth_link1 inet6 fe80::2c9d:83ff:fe33:37e/64 scope link \ valid_lft forever preferred_lft forever
-
- root@cone:/# route
- Kernel IP routing table
- Destination Gateway Genmask Flags Metric Ref Use Iface
- default 172.16.1.1 0.0.0.0 UG 0 0 0 veth_link1
- 172.16.1.0 * 255.255.255.0 U 0 0 0 veth_link1
-
-
-We see that the IP has been assigned, as well as our default gateway.
-
-Now exit this container and repeat this process with container *ctwo*, except with IP 172.16.2.2/24 and gateway 172.16.2.1.
-
-
-After that's done for *both* containers, exit from the container if you're in one:
-
-.. code-block:: console
-
- root@ctwo:/# exit
- exit
- root@localhost:~#
-
-In the machine running the containers, run **ip link** to see the host *veth* network interfaces, and their link with their respective *container veth's*.
-

-Remember our network interface index 32 in *cone* from this :ref:`note <networkNote>`? We can see at the bottom the name of the 33rd index **vethQL7KOC@if32**. Keep note of this network interface name for the veth connected to *cone* (ex. vethQL7KOC), and the other network interface name for *ctwo*.
-
-With VPP in the host machine, show current VPP interfaces:
-
-.. code-block:: console
-
- root@localhost:~# vppctl show inter
- Name Idx State MTU (L3/IP4/IP6/MPLS) Counter Count
- local0 0 down 0/0/0/0
-
-Which should only output local0.
-
-Based on the names of the network interfaces discussed previously, which are specific to my systems, we can create VPP host-interfaces:
-
-.. code-block:: console
-
- root@localhost:~# vppctl create host-interface name vethQL7K0C
- root@localhost:~# vppctl create host-interface name veth8NA72P
-
-Verify they have been set up properly:
-
-.. code-block:: console
-
- root@localhost:~# vppctl show inter
- Name Idx State MTU (L3/IP4/IP6/MPLS) Counter Count
- host-vethQL7K0C 1 down 9000/0/0/0
- host-veth8NA72P 2 down 9000/0/0/0
- local0 0 down 0/0/0/0
-
-Which should output *three network interfaces*, local0, and the other two host network interfaces linked to the container veth's.
-
-
-Set their state to up:
-
-.. code-block:: console
-
- root@localhost:~# vppctl set interface state host-vethQL7K0C up
- root@localhost:~# vppctl set interface state host-veth8NA72P up
-
-Verify they are now up:
-
-.. code-block:: console
-
- root@localhost:~# vppctl show inter
- Name Idx State MTU (L3/IP4/IP6/MPLS) Counter Count
- host-vethQL7K0C 1 up 9000/0/0/0
- host-veth8NA72P 2 up 9000/0/0/0
- local0 0 down 0/0/0/0
-
-
-Add IP addresses for the other end of each veth link:
-
-.. code-block:: console
-
- root@localhost:~# vppctl set interface ip address host-vethQL7K0C 172.16.1.1/24
- root@localhost:~# vppctl set interface ip address host-veth8NA72P 172.16.2.1/24
-
-
-Verify the addresses are set properly by looking at the L3 table:
-
-.. code-block:: console
-
- root@localhost:~# vppctl show inter addr
- host-vethQL7K0C (up):
- L3 172.16.1.1/24
- host-veth8NA72P (up):
- L3 172.16.2.1/24
- local0 (dn):
-
-Or looking at the FIB by doing:
-
-.. code-block:: console
-
- root@localhost:~# vppctl show ip fib
- ipv4-VRF:0, fib_index:0, flow hash:[src dst sport dport proto ] locks:[src:plugin-hi:2, src:default-route:1, ]

-At long last you probably want to see some pings:
-
-.. code-block:: console
-
- root@localhost:~# lxc-attach -n cone -- ping -c3 172.16.2.2
- PING 172.16.2.2 (172.16.2.2) 56(84) bytes of data.

-
- root@localhost:~# lxc-attach -n ctwo -- ping -c3 172.16.1.2
- PING 172.16.1.2 (172.16.1.2) 56(84) bytes of data.

-
-
-Which should send/receive three packets for each command.

-This is the end of this guide. Great work!
