2019-07-09vat: unload unused vat pluginsDave Barach1-23/+6
If the corresponding vpp plugin is absent, return a non-zero clib_error_t * from vat_plugin_register ("xxx plugin not loaded"). The vat plugin calls dlclose on the vat plugin, and it disappears. Depending on the plugin configuration, this can reduce the vpp virtual size by several gigabytes. Added a VAT_PLUGIN(<plugin-name>) macro to vat_helper_macros, clean up boilerplate vat_plugin_register() implementations. Fixed a number of non-standard vat_plugin_register methods. Type: refactor Change-Id: Iac908e5af7d5497c78d6aa9c3c51cdae08374045 Signed-off-by: Dave Barach <dave@barachs.net>
2019-05-16init / exit function orderingDave Barach1-6/+5
The vlib init function subsystem now supports a mix of procedural and formally-specified ordering constraints. We should eliminate procedural knowledge wherever possible. The following schemes are *roughly* equivalent: static clib_error_t *init_runs_first (vlib_main_t *vm) { clib_error_t *error; ... do some stuff... if ((error = vlib_call_init_function (init_runs_next))) return error; ... } VLIB_INIT_FUNCTION (init_runs_first); and static clib_error_t *init_runs_first (vlib_main_t *vm) { ... do some stuff... } VLIB_INIT_FUNCTION (init_runs_first) = { .runs_before = VLIB_INITS("init_runs_next"), }; The first form will [most likely] call "init_runs_next" on the spot. The second form means that "init_runs_first" runs before "init_runs_next," possibly much earlier in the sequence. Please DO NOT construct sets of init functions where A before B actually means A *right before* B. It's not necessary - simply combine A and B - and it leads to hugely annoying debugging exercises when trying to switch from ad-hoc procedural ordering constraints to formal ordering constraints.

2018-01-23VPPAPIGEN: vppapigen replacement in Python PLY.Ole Troan1-1/+1
This is a version of the VPP API generator in Python PLY. It supports the existing language, and has a plugin architecture for generators. Currently C and JSON are supported. Changes: - vl_api_version to option version = "major.minor.patch" - enum support - Added error checking and reporting - import support (removed the C pre-processor) - services (tying request/reply together) Version: option version = "1.0.0"; Enum: enum colours { RED, BLUE = 50, }; define foo { vl_api_colours_t colours; }; Services: service { rpc foo returns foo_reply; rpc foo_dump returns stream foo_details; rpc want_stats returns want_stats_reply events ip4_counters, ip6_counters; }; Future planned features: - unions - bool, text - array support (including length) - proto3 output plugin - Refactor C/C++ generator as a plugin - Refactor Java generator as a plugin Change-Id: Ifa289966c790e1b1a8e2938a91e69331e3a58bdf Signed-off-by: Ole Troan <ot@cisco.com>
2017-10-09vppapigen: support per-file (major,minor,patch) version stampsDave Barach1-0/+2
Add one of these statements to foo.api: vl_api_version 1.2.3 to generate a version tuple stanza in foo.api.h: /****** Version tuple *****/ vl_api_version_tuple(foo, 1, 2, 3) Change-Id: Ic514439e4677999daa8463a94f948f76b132ff15 Signed-off-by: Dave Barach <dave@barachs.net> Signed-off-by: Ole Troan <ot@cisco.com>
2017-10-03Repair vlib API socket serverDave Barach1-1/+0
- Teach vpp_api_test to send/receive API messages over sockets - Add memfd-based shared memory - Add api messages to create memfd-based shared memory segments - vpp_api_test supports both socket and shared memory segment connections - vpp_api_test pivot from socket to shared memory API messaging - add socket client support to libvlibclient.so - dead client reaper sends ping messages, container-friendly - dead client reaper falls back to kill (<pid>, 0) live checking if e.g. a python app goes silent for tens of seconds - handle ping messages in python client support code - teach show api ring about pairwise shared-memory segments - fix ip probing of already resolved destinations (VPP-998) We'll need this work to implement proper host-stack client isolation Change-Id: Ic23b65f75c854d0393d9a2e9d6b122a9551be769 Signed-off-by: Dave Barach <dave@barachs.net> Signed-off-by: Dave Wallace <dwallacelf@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Florin Coras <fcoras@cisco.com>
