2018-12-13API: Use string type instead of u8.Ole Troan1-0/+1
The new string type is modelled after string in proto3. It is always variable length. Change-Id: I64884067e28a80072c8dac31b7c7c82d6e306051 Signed-off-by: Ole Troan <ot@cisco.com> Signed-off-by: Michal Cmarada <mcmarada@cisco.com> Signed-off-by: Ole Troan <ot@cisco.com>
2018-10-02PAPI: Use UNIX domain sockets instead of shared memoryOle Troan1-1/+1
Adds support for running the API purely across Unix domain sockets. Usage: vpp = VPP(use_socket=True) Change-Id: Iafc1301e03dd3edc3f4d702dd6c0b98d3b50b69e Signed-off-by: Ole Troan <ot@cisco.com>
2018-08-03svm: add support for eventfd signaling to queueFlorin Coras1-3/+0
Support the use of eventfds to signal queue updates between consumer and producer pairs. Change-Id: Idb6133be2b731fff78ed520daf9d2e0399642aab Signed-off-by: Florin Coras <fcoras@cisco.com>
2018-06-05VPP API: Memory traceOle Troan1-0/+2
if you plan to put a hash into shared memory, the key sum and key equal functions MUST be set to constants such as KEY_FUNC_STRING, KEY_FUNC_MEM, etc. -lvppinfra is PIC, which means that the process which set up the hash won't have the same idea where the key sum and key compare functions live in other processes.

2018-01-25session: add support for memfd segmentsFlorin Coras1-0/+1
- update segment manager and session api to work with both flavors of ssvm segments - added generic ssvm slave/master init and del functions - cleanup/refactor tcp_echo - fixed uses of svm fifo pool as vector Change-Id: Ieee8b163faa407da6e77e657a2322de213a9d2a0 Signed-off-by: Florin Coras <fcoras@cisco.com>
2018-01-09api: refactor vlibmemoryFlorin Coras1-6/+6
- separate client/server code for both memory and socket apis - separate memory api code from generic vlib api code - move unix_shared_memory_fifo to svm and rename to svm_fifo_t - overall declutter Change-Id: I90cdd98ff74d0787d58825b914b0f1eafcfa4dc2 Signed-off-by: Florin Coras <fcoras@cisco.com>
2017-10-09vppapigen: support per-file (major,minor,patch) version stampsDave Barach1-0/+11
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>
2017-10-05Clean up "show api ring" debug CLIDave Barach1-1/+4
Add a primary svm_region_t pointer to the api_main_t so we can always find the primary region, even when processing an API message from a memfd segment. Change-Id: I07fffe2ac1088ce44de10a34bc771ddc93af967d Signed-off-by: Dave Barach <dave@barachs.net>
2017-10-03Repair vlib API socket serverDave Barach1-0/+9
- 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>

2017-09-09move unix_file_* code to vppinfraDamjan Marion1-1/+1
This will allow us to use this code in client libraries without vlib. Change-Id: I8557b752496841ba588aa36b6082cbe2cd1867fe Signed-off-by: Damjan Marion <damarion@cisco.com>
2017-07-01Refactor API message handling codeKlement Sekera1-0/+268
This is preparation for new C API. Moving common stuff to separate headers reduces dependency issues. Change-Id: Ie7adb23398de72448e5eba6c1c1da4e1bc678725 Signed-off-by: Klement Sekera <ksekera@cisco.com>
