2017-04-26Exit if plugin load attempt failDamjan Marion1-6/+2
This happens mainly if plugin contains unresolved symbol. Such situation typically leads on crash a bit later so it is better to exit immediatelly and display meaningful error message. Change-Id: I4abd9a9089a4863400bf609e8d3fd7cebab92913 Signed-off-by: Damjan Marion <damarion@cisco.com>

2017-02-26Load plugins in alphabetical orderDave Barach1-9/+55
API traces contain absolute message numbers. Loading plugins in directory (vs. alphabetical) order makes trace replay fragile. Change-Id: I46b3a3b6a9843a383d42269fca0cf5a789486eaf Signed-off-by: Dave Barach <dave@barachs.net>

2017-02-03Plugin infrastructure improvementsDamjan Marion1-57/+282
This patch replaces requirement for vlib_plugin_register function in the plugin so file and introduces new macro: VLIB_PLUGIN_REGISTER () = { .version = "version string", .version_required = "requred version", .default_disabled = 1, .early_init = "early_init_function_name", }; Plugin will nor be loaded if .default_disabled is set to 1 unless explicitely enabled in startup.conf. If .verstion_required is set, plugin will not be loaded if there is version mismatch between plugin and vpp. This can be bypassed by setting "skip-version-check" for specific plugin. If .early-init string is present, plugin loader will try to resolve this specific symbol in the plugin namespace and make a function call. Following startup.conf configuration is added: plugins { path /path/to/plugin/directory plugin ila_plugin.so { enable skip-version-check } plugin acl_plugin.so { disable } } Change-Id: I706c691dd34d94ffe9e02b59831af8859a95f061 Signed-off-by: Damjan Marion <damarion@cisco.com>
