2019-10-08api: add bapi thread handle to api main structure.IJsbrand Wijnands1-0/+3
Adding the thread handle to the api main structure allows the client process of the bin api to manage the thread, like setting the thread name for example. Type: feature Change-Id: I38b58ddc83d5958c4bda76eadd371eee1545724b Signed-off-by: IJsbrand Wijnands <ice@cisco.com>
2019-09-25api: split api generated filesOle Troan1-0/+15
Split generation of API message enum and the typedefs into separate files, so that the type file can be included from elsewhere. Generate a C file for VPP that contains the API registration, this was previously done via X macros by the C pre- processor. This allows deleting lots of skeleton/copy paste code for each feature. plugins/flowprobe plugins/map examples/sample-plugin vnet/ipip used as Guinea pigs. Generate a C Test file for VAT, that does the same for VAT plugins. Also add support for a per-message CLI option, that is currently limited to VAT help text. option vat_help = "<help text>"; Type: refactor Change-Id: I245e3104bb76f7e1fb69a59ab20cc7c8dfcdd460 Signed-off-by: Ole Troan <ot@cisco.com>
2019-09-16api: autogenerate api trace print/endianOle Troan2-3/+12
In addition to the external vppapitrace tool, VPP itself supports dumping of API trace files. In two formats, "custom-dump" and "dump". "dump" gives a human friendly list, and "custom-dump" is meant to give a list of commands that can be fed to VAT. This patch only deals with "dump". Prior to this fix, auto-generation was only done for the basic types. This fix adds support for any type, including lists, and supports pretty-printing of enums, strings, IP addresses, MAC addresses and so on. Usage: api trace dump <api-trace-file> For example Change-Id: I4e485680e6dcfce7489299ae6cf31d835071ac40 ---------- trace 48 ----------- vl_api_sw_interface_set_flags_t: _vl_msg_id: 75 client_index: 0 context: 10 sw_if_index: 1 flags: IF_STATUS_API_FLAG_ADMIN_UP ---------- trace 49 ----------- vl_api_sw_interface_add_del_address_t: _vl_msg_id: 88 client_index: 0 context: 11 sw_if_index: 1 is_add: 1 del_all: 0 prefix: 172.16.1.1/24 ---------- trace 51 ----------- vl_api_cli_inband_t: _vl_msg_id: 819 client_index: 0 context: 13 cmd: packet-generator capture pg0 pcap /tmp/vpp-unittest-TestMAP-YhcmDX/pg0_out.pcap disable ---------- trace 58 ----------- vl_api_ip_neighbor_add_del_t: _vl_msg_id: 199 client_index: 0 context: 20 is_add: 1 neighbor: sw_if_index: 2 flags: IP_API_NEIGHBOR_FLAG_NONE mac_address: 0202.0000.ff02 ip_address: fd01:2::2 Signed-off-by: Ole Troan <ot@cisco.com> Change-Id: I5556d06008de2762e7c2d35a8b0963ae670b3db1 Type: fix Signed-off-by: Ole Troan <ot@cisco.com> Signed-off-by: Ole Troan <ot@cisco.com> Signed-off-by: Ole Troan <ot@cisco.com> Signed-off-by: Ole Troan <ot@cisco.com> Signed-off-by: Ole Troan <ot@cisco.com> Signed-off-by: Ole Troan <ot@cisco.com> Signed-off-by: Ole Troan <ot@cisco.com> Signed-off-by: Ole Troan <ot@cisco.com>

2019-07-16api: enable binary API event logging in vatDave Barach2-28/+86
Cleaned up a few instances of side-bet elog_string hash table usage. Elog_string handles that problem itself. Add cli commands to vat to initialize, enable/disable, and save an event log. Event logging at the same time in both vpp and vat yields a pair of event logs which can be merged by the "test_elog" tool.

2019-07-09vat: unload unused vat pluginsDave Barach1-0/+21
If the corresponding vpp plugin is absent, return a non-zero clib_error_t * from vat_plugin_register ("xxx plugin not loaded"). The vat plugin calls dlclose on the vat plugin, and it disappears. Depending on the plugin configuration, this can reduce the vpp virtual size by several gigabytes. Added a VAT_PLUGIN(<plugin-name>) macro to vat_helper_macros, clean up boilerplate vat_plugin_register() implementations. Fixed a number of non-standard vat_plugin_register methods.

2019-01-24perfmon plugin: 2-way parallel stat collectionDave Barach1-9/+2
As a FUD reduction measure, this patch implements 2-way parallel counter collection. Synthetic stat component counter pairs run at the same time. Running two counters (of any kind) at the same time naturally reduces the aggregate time required by an approximate factor-of-2, depending on whether an even or odd number of stats have been requested. I don't completely buy the argument that computing synthetic stats such as instructions-per-clock will be inaccurate if component counter values are collected sequentially. Given uniform traffic pattern, it must make no difference. As the collection interval increases, the difference between serial and parallel component counter collection will approach zero, see also the Central Limit theorem.
