+ * This command is used to start or stop a packet capture, or show

+ *
+ * This command has the following optional parameters:
+ *
+ * - <b>on|off</b> - Used to start or stop a packet capture.
+ *
+ * - <b>max <nn></b> - Depth of local buffer. Once '<em>nn</em>' number
+ *   of packets have been received, buffer is flushed to file. Once another
+ *   '<em>nn</em>' number of packets have been received, buffer is flushed
+ *   to file, overwriting previous write. If not entered, value defaults
+ *   to 100. Can only be updated if packet capture is off.
+ *
+ * - <b>intfc <interface>|any</b> - Used to specify a given interface,
+ *   or use '<em>any</em>' to run packet capture on all interfaces.
+ *   '<em>any</em>' is the default if not provided. Settings from a previous
+ *   packet capture are preserved, so '<em>any</em>' can be used to reset
+ *   the interface setting.
+ *
+ * - <b>file <name></b> - Used to specify the output filename. The file will
+ *   be placed in the '<em>/tmp</em>' directory, so only the filename is
+ *   supported. Directory should not be entered. If file already exists, file
+ *   will be overwritten. If no filename is provided, '<em>/tmp/vpe.pcap</em>'
+ *   will be used. Can only be updated if packet capture is off.
+ *
+ * - <b>status</b> - Displays the current status and configured attributes
+ *   associated with a packet capture. If packet capture is in progress,
+ *   '<em>status</em>' also will return the number of packets currently in
+ *   the local buffer. All additional attributes entered on command line
+ *   with '<em>status</em>' will be ingnored and not applied.
+ *

+ * Example of how to display the status of a tx packet capture when off:

+ *
+ * - <b>id subport|pipe|tc</b> - Classification occurs across three fields.
+ * This parameter indicates which of the three masks are being configured. Legacy
+ * code used 0-2 to represent these three fields, so 0-2 is still accepted.
+ *   - <b>subport|0</b> - Currently only one subport is supported, so only
+ * an empty mask is supported for the subport classification.
+ *   - <b>pipe|1</b> - Currently, 4096 pipes per subport are supported, so a
+ * 12-bit mask should be configure to map to the 0-4095 pipes.
+ *   - <b>tc|2</b> - The translation table (see '<em>set dpdk interface hqos
+ * tctbl</em>' command) maps each value (0-63) into one of the 4 traffic classes
+ * per pipe. A 6-bit mask should be configure to map this field to a traffic class.
+ *
+ * - <b>offset <n></b> - Offset in the packet to apply the 64-bit mask for classification.
+ * The offset should be on an 8-byte boundary (0,8,16,24..).
+ *
+ * - <b>mask <hex-mask></b> - 64-bit mask to apply to packet at the given '<em>offset</em>'.
+ * Bits must be contiguous and should not include '<em>0x</em>'.
+ *
+ * The default values for the '<em>pktfield</em>' assumes Ethernet/IPv4/UDP packets with
+ * no VLAN. Adjust based on expected packet format and desired classification field.
+ * - '<em>subport</em>' is always empty (offset 0 mask 0000000000000000)
+ * - By default, '<em>pipe</em>' maps to the UDP payload bits 12 .. 23 (offset 40

+    packets to process. Handle early packet discard. Derive @c
+    vlib_buffer_t metadata from <code>struct rte_mbuf</code> metadata,
+    Depending on the resulting metadata: adjust <code>b->current_data,
+    b->current_length </code> and dispatch directly to
+    ip4-input-no-checksum, or ip6-input. Trace the packet if required.
+
+    @param vm   vlib_main_t corresponding to the current thread
+    @param node vlib_node_runtime_t
+    @param f    vlib_frame_t input-node, not used.
+
+    @par Graph mechanics: buffer metadata, next index usage
+
+    @em Uses:
+    - <code>struct rte_mbuf mb->ol_flags</code>
+        - PKT_RX_IP_CKSUM_BAD
+    - <code> RTE_ETH_IS_xxx_HDR(mb->packet_type) </code>
+        - packet classification result
+
+    @em Sets:
+    - <code>b->error</code> if the packet is to be dropped immediately
+    - <code>b->current_data, b->current_length</code>
+        - adjusted as needed to skip the L2 header in  direct-dispatch cases
+    - <code>vnet_buffer(b)->sw_if_index[VLIB_RX]</code>
+        - rx interface sw_if_index
+    - <code>vnet_buffer(b)->sw_if_index[VLIB_TX] = ~0</code>
+        - required by ipX-lookup
+    - <code>b->flags</code>
+        - to indicate multi-segment pkts (VLIB_BUFFER_NEXT_PRESENT), etc.

+# QoS Hierarchical Scheduler    {#qos_doc}
+
+The Quality-of-Service (QoS) scheduler performs egress-traffic management by
+prioritizing the transmission of the packets of different type services and
+subcribers based on the Service Level Agreements (SLAs). The QoS scheduler can
+be enabled on one or more NIC output interfaces depending upon the
+requirement.
+
+
+## Overview
+
+The QoS schdeuler supports a number of scheduling and shaping levels which
+construct hierarchical-tree. The first level in the hierarchy is port (i.e.
+the physical interface) that constitutes the root node of the tree. The
+subsequent level is subport which represents the group of the
+users/subscribers. The individual user/subscriber is represented by the pipe
+at the next level. Each user can have different traffic type based on the
+criteria of specific loss rate, jitter, and latency. These traffic types are
+represented at the traffic-class level in the form of different traffic-
+classes. The last level contains number of queues which are grouped together
+to host the packets of the specific class type traffic.
+
+The QoS scheduler implementation requires flow classification, enqueue  and
+dequeue operations. The flow classification is mandatory stage for HQoS where
+incoming packets are classified by mapping the packet fields information to
+5-tuple (HQoS subport, pipe, traffic class, queue within traffic class, and
+color) and storing that information in mbuf sched field. The enqueue operation
+uses this information to determine the queue for storing the packet, and at
+this stage, if the specific queue is full, QoS drops the packet. The dequeue
+operation consists of scheduling the packet based on its length and available
+credits, and handing over the scheduled packet to the output interface.
+
+For more information on QoS Scheduler, please refer DPDK Programmer's Guide-
+http://dpdk.org/doc/guides/prog_guide/qos_framework.html
+
+
+### QoS Schdeuler Parameters
+
+Following illustrates the default HQoS configuration for each 10GbE output
+port:
+
+Single subport (subport 0):
+  - Subport rate set to 100% of port rate
+  - Each of the 4 traffic classes has rate set to 100% of port rate
+
+4K pipes per subport 0 (pipes 0 .. 4095) with identical configuration:
+  - Pipe rate set to 1/4K of port rate
+  - Each of the 4 traffic classes has rate set to 100% of pipe rate
+  - Within each traffic class, the byte-level WRR weights for the 4 queues are set to 1:1:1:1

+### DPDK QoS Scheduler Integration in VPP
+
+The Hierarchical Quaity-of-Service (HQoS) scheduler object could be seen as
+part of the logical NIC output interface. To enable HQoS on specific output
+interface, vpp startup.conf file has to be configured accordingly. The output
+interface that requires HQoS, should have "hqos" parameter specified in dpdk
+section. Another optional parameter "hqos-thread"  has been defined which can
+be used to associate the output interface with specific hqos thread. In cpu
+section of the config file, "corelist-hqos-threads" is introduced to assign
+logical cpu cores to run the HQoS threads. A HQoS thread can run multiple HQoS
+objects each associated with different output interfaces. All worker threads
+instead of writing packets to NIC TX queue directly, write the packets to a
+software queues. The hqos_threads read the software queues, and enqueue the
+packets to HQoS objects, as well as dequeue packets from HQOS objects and
+write them to NIC output interfaces. The worker threads need to be able to
+send the packets to any output interface, therefore, each HQoS object
+associated with NIC output interface should have software queues equal to
+worker threads count.
+
+Following illustrates the sample startup configuration file with 4x worker
+threads feeding 2x hqos threads that handle each QoS scheduler for 1x output
+interface.
+
+```
+dpdk {
+  socket-mem 16384,16384
+
+  dev 0000:02:00.0 {
+    num-rx-queues 2
+    hqos
+  }
+  dev 0000:06:00.0 {
+    num-rx-queues 2
+    hqos
+  }
+
+  num-mbufs 1000000
+}
+
+cpu {
+  main-core 0
+  corelist-workers  1, 2, 3, 4
+  corelist-hqos-threads  5, 6
+}
+```
+
+
+### QoS scheduler CLI Commands
+
+Each QoS scheduler instance is initialised with default parameters required to
+configure hqos port, subport, pipe and queues. Some of the parameters can be
+re-configured in run-time through CLI commands.
+
+
+#### Configuration
+
+Following commands can be used to configure QoS scheduler parameters.
+
+The command below can be used to set the subport level parameters such as
+token bucket rate (bytes per seconds), token bucket size (bytes), traffic
+class rates (bytes per seconds) and token update period (Milliseconds).
+
+```
+set dpdk interface hqos subport <interface> subport <subport_id> [rate <n>]
+    [bktsize <n>] [tc0 <n>] [tc1 <n>] [tc2 <n>] [tc3 <n>] [period <n>]
+```
+
+For setting the pipe profile, following command can be used.    
+
+```
+set dpdk interface hqos pipe <interface> subport <subport_id> pipe <pipe_id>
+    profile <profile_id>
+```
+
+To assign QoS scheduler instance to the specific thread, following command can
+be used.
+
+```
+set dpdk interface hqos placement <interface> thread <n>
+```
+
+The command below is used to set the packet fields required for classifiying
+the incoming packet. As a result of classification process,     packet field
+information will be mapped to 5 tuples (subport, pipe, traffic class, pipe,
+color) and stored in packet mbuf.
+
+```
+set dpdk interface hqos pktfield <interface> id subport|pipe|tc offset <n>
+    mask <hex-mask>
+```
+
+The DSCP table entries used for idenfiying the traffic class and queue can be set using the command below;   
+
+```  
+set dpdk interface hqos tctbl <interface> entry <map_val> tc <tc_id> queue <queue_id>
+```
+
+
+#### Show Command
+
+The QoS Scheduler configuration can displayed using the command below.
+
+```
+   vpp# show dpdk interface hqos TenGigabitEthernet2/0/0
+   Thread:
+     Input SWQ size = 4096 packets
+     Enqueue burst size = 256 packets

+
+### QoS Scheduler Binary APIs
+
+This section explans the available binary APIs for configuring QoS scheduler
+parameters in run-time.
+
+The following API can be used to set the pipe profile of a pipe that belongs
+to a given subport:
+
+```
+sw_interface_set_dpdk_hqos_pipe rx <intfc> | sw_if_index <id>
+    subport <subport-id> pipe <pipe-id> profile <profile-id>
+```
+
+The data structures used for set the pipe profile parameter are as follows;
+
+```
+  /** \\brief DPDK interface HQoS pipe profile set request
+    @param client_index - opaque cookie to identify the sender
+    @param context - sender context, to match reply w/ request
+    @param sw_if_index - the interface
+    @param subport - subport ID
+    @param pipe - pipe ID within its subport
+    @param profile - pipe profile ID
+  */
+  define sw_interface_set_dpdk_hqos_pipe {
+    u32 client_index;
+    u32 context;
+    u32 sw_if_index;
+    u32 subport;
+    u32 pipe;
+    u32 profile;
+  };
+
+  /** \\brief DPDK interface HQoS pipe profile set reply
+    @param context - sender context, to match reply w/ request
+    @param retval - request return code
+  */
+  define sw_interface_set_dpdk_hqos_pipe_reply {
+    u32 context;
+    i32 retval;
+  };
+```
+
+The following API can be used to set the subport level parameters, for
+example- token bucket rate (bytes per seconds), token bucket size (bytes),
+traffic class rate (bytes per seconds) and tokens update period.
+
+```
+sw_interface_set_dpdk_hqos_subport rx <intfc> | sw_if_index <id>
+    subport <subport-id> [rate <n>] [bktsize <n>]
+    [tc0 <n>] [tc1 <n>] [tc2 <n>] [tc3 <n>] [period <n>]
+```
+
+The data structures used for set the subport level parameter are as follows;
+
+```
+  /** \\brief DPDK interface HQoS subport parameters set request
+    @param client_index - opaque cookie to identify the sender
+    @param context - sender context, to match reply w/ request
+    @param sw_if_index - the interface
+    @param subport - subport ID
+    @param tb_rate - subport token bucket rate (measured in bytes/second)
+    @param tb_size - subport token bucket size (measured in credits)
+    @param tc_rate - subport traffic class 0 .. 3 rates (measured in bytes/second)
+    @param tc_period - enforcement period for rates (measured in milliseconds)
+  */
+  define sw_interface_set_dpdk_hqos_subport {
+    u32 client_index;
+    u32 context;
+    u32 sw_if_index;
+    u32 subport;
+    u32 tb_rate;
+    u32 tb_size;
+    u32 tc_rate[4];
+    u32 tc_period;
+  };
+
+  /** \\brief DPDK interface HQoS subport parameters set reply
+    @param context - sender context, to match reply w/ request
+    @param retval - request return code
+  */
+  define sw_interface_set_dpdk_hqos_subport_reply {
+    u32 context;
+    i32 retval;
+  };
+```
+
+The following API can be used set the DSCP table entry. The DSCP table have
+64 entries to map the packet DSCP field onto traffic class and hqos input
+queue.
+
+```
+sw_interface_set_dpdk_hqos_tctbl rx <intfc> | sw_if_index <id> 
+    entry <n> tc <n> queue <n>
+```
+
+The data structures used for setting DSCP table entries are given below.
+
+```
+  /** \\brief DPDK interface HQoS tctbl entry set request
+    @param client_index - opaque cookie to identify the sender
+    @param context - sender context, to match reply w/ request
+    @param sw_if_index - the interface
+    @param entry - entry index ID
+    @param tc - traffic class (0 .. 3)
+    @param queue - traffic class queue (0 .. 3)
+  */
+  define sw_interface_set_dpdk_hqos_tctbl {
+    u32 client_index;
+    u32 context;
+    u32 sw_if_index;
+    u32 entry;
+    u32 tc;
+    u32 queue;
+  };
+
+  /** \\brief DPDK interface HQoS tctbl entry set reply
+    @param context - sender context, to match reply w/ request
+    @param retval - request return code
+  */
+  define sw_interface_set_dpdk_hqos_tctbl_reply {
+    u32 context;
+    i32 retval;
+  };

+# VPP IPSec implementation using DPDK Cryptodev API    {#dpdk_crypto_ipsec_doc}
+
+This document is meant to contain all related information about implementation and usability.
+
+
+## VPP IPsec with DPDK Cryptodev
+
+DPDK Cryptodev is an asynchronous crypto API that supports both Hardware and Software implementations (for more details refer to [DPDK Cryptography Device Library documentation](http://dpdk.org/doc/guides/prog_guide/cryptodev_lib.html)).
+
+When DPDK support is enabled and there are enough Cryptodev resources for all workers, the node graph is reconfigured by adding and changing default next nodes.
+
+The following nodes are added:
+* dpdk-crypto-input : polling input node, basically dequeuing from crypto devices.
+* dpdk-esp-encrypt : internal node.
+* dpdk-esp-decrypt : internal node.
+* dpdk-esp-encrypt-post : internal node.
+* dpdk-esp-decrypt-post : internal node.
+
+Set new default next nodes:
+* for esp encryption: esp-encrypt -> dpdk-esp-encrypt
+* for esp decryption: esp-decrypt -> dpdk-esp-decrypt
+
+
+### How to enable VPP IPSec with DPDK Cryptodev support
+
+DPDK Cryptodev is supported in DPDK enabled VPP.
+By default, only HW Cryptodev is supported but needs to be explicetly enabled with the following config option:
+
+```
+dpdk {
+    enable-cryptodev
+}
+```
+
+To enable SW Cryptodev support (AESNI-MB-PMD and GCM-PMD), we need the following env option:
+
+    vpp_uses_dpdk_cryptodev_sw=yes
+
+A couple of ways to achive this:
+* uncomment/add it in the platforms config (ie. build-data/platforms/vpp.mk)
+* set the option when building vpp (ie. make vpp_uses_dpdk_cryptodev_sw=yes build-release)
+
+When enabling SW Cryptodev support, it means that you need to pre-build the required crypto libraries needed by those SW Cryptodev PMDs.
+
+
+### Crypto Resources allocation
+
+VPP allocates crypto resources based on a best effort approach:
+* first allocate Hardware crypto resources, then Software.
+* if there are not enough crypto resources for all workers, the graph node is not modifed, therefore the default VPP IPsec implementation based in OpenSSL is used. The following message is displayed:
+
+      0: dpdk_ipsec_init: not enough cryptodevs for ipsec
+
+
+### Configuration example
+
+To enable DPDK Cryptodev the user just need to provide the startup.conf option
+as mentioned previously.
+
+Example startup.conf:
+
+```
+dpdk {
+    socket-mem 1024,1024
+    num-mbufs 131072
+    dev 0000:81:00.0
+    dev 0000:81:00.1
+    enable-cryptodev
+    dev 0000:85:01.0
+    dev 0000:85:01.1
+    vdev cryptodev_aesni_mb_pmd,socket_id=1
+    vdev cryptodev_aesni_mb_pmd,socket_id=1
+}
+```
+
+In the above configuration:
+* 0000:85:01.0 and 0000:85:01.1 are crypto BDFs and they require the same driver binding as DPDK Ethernet devices but they do not support any extra configuration options.
+* Two AESNI-MB Software Cryptodev PMDs are created in NUMA node 1.
+
+For further details refer to [DPDK Crypto Device Driver documentation](http://dpdk.org/doc/guides/cryptodevs/index.html)
+
+### Operational data
+
+The following CLI command displays the Cryptodev/Worker mapping:
+
+    show crypto device mapping [verbose]
