2016-11-21Add client-side msg_name_and_crc -> msg_index tableDave Barach1-0/+16
vppapigen now generates per-message crcs. Verified that whitespace and real changes in message A don't change the crc for message B, etc. Fixed the sample and flowperpkt plugins to participate. Others need the same treatment. They don't build due to python/java language binding build issues. To use the scheme: Client connects as usual. Then call: u32 vl_api_get_msg_index(char * name_and_crc) name_and_crc is a string like: "flowperpkt_tx_interface_add_del_753301f3", aka the message name with _%08x <expected crc> appended. Try these vpp-api-test commands to play with it: vat# dump_msg_api_table <snip> [366]: punt_reply_cca27fbe [367]: ipsec_spd_dump_5e9ae88e [368]: ipsec_spd_details_6f7821b0 [369]: sample_macswap_enable_disable_0f2813e2 [370]: sample_macswap_enable_disable_reply_476738e5 [371]: flowperpkt_tx_interface_add_del_753301f3 [372]: flowperpkt_tx_interface_add_del_reply_d47e6e0b vat# get_msg_id sample_macswap_enable_disable_reply_476738e5 'sample_macswap_enable_disable_reply_476738e5' has message index 370 vat# get_msg_id sample_macswap_enable_disable_reply_476738e3 'sample_macswap_enable_disable_reply_476738e3' not found CRCs may vary, etc. vppapigen is used to build a set of JSON representations of each API file from vpp-api/Makefile.am and that is in turn used by each language binding (Java, Python, Lua).

2016-10-25Support IETF routing Yang models (VPP-503).Neale Ranns1-1/+1
Add support for special routes to send ICMP unreachable or admin prohibited. Change-Id: Ia1ac65b0e5e925c0f9ebc7824141833b4e18f05e Signed-off-by: Neale Ranns <nranns@cisco.com>
2016-10-18LoadBal: Use intrinsics and use protocol numberPierre Pfister3-209/+307
This patch modifies the load balancer hash table such that it uses vector operations. It also fixes the hash computation logic such that the port is only looked-up for TCP and UDP. Some additional work is still needed for other types of traffic. Change-Id: I788b4c782a9923d3792f3985f0580c0c81b3aad3 Signed-off-by: Pierre Pfister <ppfister@cisco.com>
2016-10-10Test: Add test case for Load Balancer pluginPierre Pfister2-3/+13
This adds a basic test for the four existing encap modes for the load balancer plugin. - ip4 over gre4 - ip4 over gre6 - ip6 over gre4 - ip6 over gre6 Apparently, scapy does not support GRE and IPv6 combinations. Hence, those tests do send packets through VPP, but only ip4 over gre4 output is actually parsed and verified.

2016-10-05Load Balancer: Use FIB 2.0Pierre Pfister4-402/+358
This patch fixes load balancer, which was not working since FIB 2.0. Two FIB DPO types are defined: - One for IPv4 GRE - One for IPv6 GRE When an AS is created, the plugin automatically uses the result from the FIB in order to transmit the packet. Therefore, the packet does not need to visit ip-lookup twice. The 'bypass' command was removed, as it is now done automatically using this process.

2016-09-20Add structure to some of the documentation; VPP-223Chris Luke1-1/+1
Moves the random .md files, when rendered by Doxygen, into a config examples tree. We may later flesh this out into a more complete user documentation section. Change-Id: If423b82f1047f1c84f90876a786313054b5f7c77 Signed-off-by: Chris Luke <chrisy@flirble.org>

2016-08-11VPP-130: MagLev-like Load BalancerPierre Pfister15-0/+2863
This plugin provides load balancing for VPP in a way that is largely inspired from Google's MagLev: http://research.google.com/pubs/pub44824.html More info in the README.md Change-Id: I1223f495d5c2d5200808a398504119f2830337e9 Signed-off-by: Pierre Pfister <ppfister@cisco.com>
