2020-11-04vlib: add postmortem pcap dispatch traceDave Barach1-0/+9
Inspired by a real-life conundrum: scenario X involves a vpp crash in ip4-load-balance because vnet_buffer(b)->ip.adj_index[VLIB_TX] is (still) set to ~0. The problem takes most of a day to occur, and we need to see the broken packet's graph trajectory, metadata, etc. to understand the problem. Fix a signed/unsigned ASSERT bug in vlib_get_trace_count(). Rename elog_post_mortem_dump() -> vlib_post_mortem_dump(), add dispatch trace post-mortem dump. Add FILTER_FLAG_POST_MORTEM so we can (putatively) capture a ludicrous number of buffer traces, without actually using more than one dispatch cycle's worth of memory.

2020-10-06feature: Add packet trace APIJon Loeliger1-37/+84
Also spiffed up the vpp_api_test plugin loader so it executes VLIB_INIT_FUNCTIONs and VLIB_API_INIT_FUNCTIONs.

2020-06-08vlib: stop inlining vlib_add_trace(...)Dave Barach1-0/+9
Packet tracing performance doesn't justify inlining vlib_add_trace(...) over 500 times. It makes a 15% text-segment size difference in a representative use-case: Inline: $ size .../vnet_skx.dir/ipsec/ipsec_input.c.o text data bss dec hex filename 6831 80 0 6911 1aff .../vnet_skx.dir/ipsec/ipsec_input.c.o Not inline: $ size .../vnet_skx.dir/ipsec/ipsec_input.c.o text data bss dec hex filename 5776 80 0 5856 16e0 .../vnet_skx.dir/ipsec/ipsec_input.c.o Retain the original code as vlib_add_trace_inline, instantiate once as vlib_add_trace.

Configure n-tuple classifier filters which apply to the vpp packet tracer. Update the documentation to reflect the new feature. Add a test vector. Type: feature Signed-off-by: Dave Barach <dave@barachs.net> Change-Id: Iefa911716c670fc12e4825b937b62044433fec36

2018-08-24Clean up packet tracer, especially "clear trace"Dave Barach1-24/+10
There are multiple trace enablement schemes. It's easy to end up in vlib_add_trace with tracing disabled insofar as the packet tracer is concerned. When that happens, return the address of a per-system dummy trace record. Change-Id: I929391b8be4ed57e26e291afdc509a15f09a3160 Signed-off-by: Dave Barach <dave@barachs.net>
2017-02-22VPP-635: CLI Memory leak with invalid parameterBilly McFall1-3/+10
In the CLI parsing, below is a common pattern: /* Get a line of input. */ if (!unformat_user (input, unformat_line_input, line_input)) return 0; while (unformat_check_input (line_input) != UNFORMAT_END_OF_INPUT) { if (unformat (line_input, "x")) x = 1; : else return clib_error_return (0, "unknown input `%U'", format_unformat_error, line_input); } unformat_free (line_input); The 'else' returns if an unknown string is encountered. There a memory leak because the 'unformat_free(line_input)' is not called. There is a large number of instances of this pattern. Replaced the previous pattern with: /* Get a line of input. */ if (!unformat_user (input, unformat_line_input, line_input)) return 0; while (unformat_check_input (line_input) != UNFORMAT_END_OF_INPUT) { if (unformat (line_input, "x")) x = 1; : else { error = clib_error_return (0, "unknown input `%U'", format_unformat_error, line_input); goto done: } } /* ...Remaining code... */ done: unformat_free (line_input); return error; } In multiple files, 'unformat_free (line_input);' was never called, so there was a memory leak whether an invalid string was entered or not. Also, there were multiple instance where: error = clib_error_return (0, "unknown input `%U'", format_unformat_error, line_input); used 'input' as the last parameter instead of 'line_input'. The result is that output did not contain the substring in error, instead just an empty string. Fixed all of those as well. There are a lot of file, and very mind numbing work, so tried to keep it to a pattern to avoid mistakes.
