2017-05-22vhost: migrate to use device infra for worker thread assignment, rx-mode.Steven1-10/+1
and add adaptive mode support to receive queue - Migrate vhost to use device infra which does the interface/queue to worker thread assignment. - Retire vhost thread CLI and corresponding code which assigns interface/queue to worker thread. set interface placement should be used instead to customize the interface/queue to worker thread assignment. - Retire vhost interrupt/polling option when creating vhost-user interface. Instead, set interface rx-mode should be used. - Add code in vnet_device_input_unassign_thread to change the node state to interrupt if the last polling interface has left the worker thread for the device of the corresponding interface/queue. - Add adaptive mode support. The node state is set to interrupt initially. When the scheduler detects a burst of traffic, it switches the input node to polling. Then we inform the device that we don't need interrupt notification. When the traffic subsides, the scheduler switches the input node back to interrupt. Then we immediately tell the driver that we want interrupt notification again. - Remove some duplicate code in vlib/main.c Change-Id: Id19bb1b9e50e6521c6464f470f5825c26924d3a8 Signed-off-by: Steven <sluong@cisco.com>

2017-04-06Use thread local storage for thread indexDamjan Marion1-7/+7
This patch deprecates stack-based thread identification, Also removes requirement that thread stacks are adjacent. Finally, possibly annoying for some folks, it renames all occurences of cpu_index and cpu_number with thread index. Using word "cpu" is misleading here as thread can be migrated ti different CPU, and also it is not related to linux cpu index.

2017-04-01Clean up event log merge codeDave Barach1-1/+1
Fix a decade-old ridiculous qsort function bug. Managed to subtract floating-point numbers as if they were integers, leading to manufactured time-paradoxes. That completely confuses g2, leading to the summary disappearance of entire tracks' worth of data at high zoom levels. Add a manual alignment tweak parameter to elog_merge, users can dial-out time paradoxes caused by NTP-grade clock synchronization. The event-logger has a precision of O(100ns), whereas NTP synchronization is O(1ms). Change-Id: I69dedabaa314f69f9df74ec9ee66e21e6c87f703 Signed-off-by: Dave Barach <dave@barachs.net>
2017-03-28vlib: inline dispatch_node(...) (again)Damjan Marion1-2/+2
Worker main loop is now shared code with main thread main loop so no need to export functions anymore. Change-Id: I99ee2eee981c1b88ca31d20eabeb6c21d030a34d Signed-off-by: Damjan Marion <damarion@cisco.com>
2017-03-22vhost: support interrupt modeSteven1-5/+8
vhost currently supports only polling mode. This patch is to add interrupt mode. When the interface is configured for interrupt mode, our input node does not get called unless there is a packet in the vring. If a particular CPU has one interface configured for polling mode and another in interrupt, the input node is set to polling for that CPU. This diffs also includes two crashes in vlib's dispatch_node. One is included in https://gerrit.fd.io/r/#/c/5516. The other crash is in the ASSERT. The ASSERT can become true when the caller of dispatch_node is in a loop. The first call converted the node to polling. The second call thereafter will hit the ASSERT.

2017-03-17vlib: fix potential crash in dispatch_node ELOG_DATA callSteven1-2/+11
dispatch_node may be invoked from vlib main or worker threads. The call to ELOG_DATA in dispatch_node passes the parameter &vm->elog_main. It works fine when dispatch_node is invoked from the main thread. It does bad thing when it is invoked from the worker thread. While we are at it, make two additional enhancements to the same area. 1. Use ELOG_TRACK_DATA instead of ELOG_DATA to enhance g2 viewer presentation. 2. Since ELOG_DATA is in the data path, it could get very chatty. Make the call to ELOG_TRACK_DATA conditional compile.
