2018-10-03sock api: fix registrations and client readsFlorin Coras1-4/+2
- When clients connect, instead of returing registration indicies return handles. By convention socket registrations will have the MSB set to 1. This makes it easy to distinguish them from shm registrations. - Fix client reads to allow for messages larger than 4kB (needed for the creat reply wherein the message table is provided).

2018-10-02PAPI: Use UNIX domain sockets instead of shared memoryOle Troan1-4/+5
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>

2018-01-25session: add support for memfd segmentsFlorin Coras1-0/+38
- 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>
2018-01-11api: fix handlers that explicitly depend on svm queueFlorin Coras1-0/+9
Fixes the remainig apis that explicitly check svm queue length. Change-Id: I6055c7c50050affee3098e162e15fb12c205e5db Signed-off-by: Florin Coras <fcoras@cisco.com>
2018-01-09api: refactor vlibmemoryFlorin Coras1-24/+66
- 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>
2017-10-03Repair vlib API socket serverDave Barach1-0/+1
- 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>
2017-07-01Refactor API message handling codeKlement Sekera1-106/+1
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>
