This patch introduces following changes: - deprecated free lists which are not used and not compatible with external buffer managers (i.e. DPDK) - introduces native support for per-numa buffer pools - significantly improves performance of buffer alloc and free Change-Id: I4a8e723ae47056717afd6cac0efe87cb731b5be7 Signed-off-by: Damjan Marion <damarion@cisco.com>

2018-12-04Add VNET_BUFFER_F_AVAIL definitionsDave Barach1-0/+1
Add a check to make sure that the vlib and vnet buffer flag bit definitions do not overlap. The VNET_BUFFER_F_AVAIL1...8 definitions allow out-of-tree codes to: #define VNET_BUFFER_F_MY_USECASE VNET_BUFFER_F_AVAIL1 and so on. This avoids introducing irrelevant and/or proprietary bit definitions into vnet/buffer.h, and hopefully minimizes merge pain for everyone involved.

- buffer_main is no longer part of vlib_main_t - pool of free lists is still part of vlib_main_t - mheap is not used anymore for buffer allocation - simple bitmap bassed buffer alloc scheme is introduced Change-Id: I3e1e6d00e2c8122293ed0a741245eb841315a1ff Signed-off-by: Damjan Marion <damarion@cisco.com>

2017-11-27vlib: make vlib_buffer_alloc inline functionDamjan Marion1-8/+4
Currently, every alloc involves callback function call. With this change callback function is called only if there is no empty buffers on the free list. Change-Id: I2238c19ece7ce182c49ba0f2485add52f335f3b6 Signed-off-by: Damjan Marion <damarion@cisco.com>

- api-segment prefix not used when unlinking shm files - unlink root region on exit if no clients referenced - stale reference to freed segment name - don't add fake client to /db unless CLIB_DEBUG > 2 - turn off the gmond plugin - clean up unused vars in vpp/api Change-Id: I66451fcfd6ee64a12466c2d6c209050e3cdb74b7 Signed-off-by: Dave Wallace <dwallacelf@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Dave Barach <dave@barachs.net>
2017-07-14Introduce l{2,3,4}_hdr_offset fields in the buffer metadataDamjan Marion1-18/+22
To save space in the first cacheline following is changed: - total_length_not_including_first_buffer moved to the 2nd cacheline. This field is used only when VLIB_BUFFER_TOTAL_LENGTH_VALID and VLIB_BUFFER_NEXT_PRESENT are both set. - free_list_index is now stored in 4bits inside flags, which allows up to 16 free lists. In case we need more we can store index in the 2nd cachelin Change-Id: Ic8521350819391af470d31d3fa1013e67ecb7681 Signed-off-by: Damjan Marion <damarion@cisco.com>
2017-07-10vlib: store buffer memory information in the buffer_mainDamjan Marion1-6/+26
Currently, buffer index is calculated as a offset to the physmem region shifted by log2_cacheline size. When DPDK is used we "hack" physmem data with information taken from dpdk mempool. This makes physmem code not usable with DPDK. This change makes buffer memory start and size independent of physmem basically allowing physmem to be used when DPDK plugin is loaded.
