2019-09-30stats: add /if/<n>/<n>/state for lacp interface stateSteven Luong2-2/+31
Add /if/lacp/<bond-sw_if_index>/<slave-sw_if_index>/state <bond-sw_if_index> is a vector of the bond sw_if_index <slave-sw_if_index> is a vector of the slave sw_if_index Content is the integer value of the lacp actor state. The state is actually a bitfield as described in the lacp protocol spec.

2019-09-20bonding lacp: deleting virtual interface which was enslaved may cause crashSteven Luong3-26/+39
Virtual interfaces may be part of the bonding like physical interfaces. The difference is virtual interfaces may disappear dynamically. As an example, the following CLI sequence may crash the debug image create vhost-user socket /tmp/sock1 create bond mode lacp bond add BondEthernet0 VirtualEthernet0/0/0 delete vhost-user VirtualEhernet0/0/0 Notice the virtual interface is deleted without first doing bond delete. The proper order is to first remove the slave interface from the bond prior to deleting the virtual interface as shown below. But we should handle it anyway. create vhost-user socket /tmp/sock1 create bond mode lacp bond add BondEthernet0 VirtualEthernet0/0/0 bond del VirtualEthernet0/0/0 <----- delete vhost-user VirtualEhernet0/0/0 The fix is to register for VNET_SW_INTERFACE_ADD_DEL_FUNCTION and remove the slave interface from the bond if the to-be-deleted interface is part of the bond. We check the interface that it is actually up before we send the lacp pdu. Up means both hw and sw admin up.

2019-07-25bonding: incorrect RX counters for bond interfaceSteven Luong2-44/+36
show interface does not display the RX counters for the bond interfaces. It displays rx-no-buf instead. The problem is VNET_INTERFACE_COUNTER_RX is a combined counter, not a simple counter. Change the code to use vlib_increment_combined_counter passing it with n_rx_packets and n_rx_bytes.

-fno-common makes sure we do not have multiple declarations of the same global symbol across compilation units. It helps debug nasty linkage bugs by guaranteeing that all reference to a global symbol use the same underlying object. It also helps avoiding benign mistakes such as declaring enum as global objects instead of types in headers (hence the minor fixes scattered across the source).

2019-01-23bond: packet drops on VPP bond interface [VPP-1544]Steven2-20/+21
We register callback for VNET_HW_INTERFACE_LINK_UP_DOWN_FUNCTION and VNET_SW_INTERFACE_ADMIN_UP_DOWN_FUNCTION to add and remove the slave interface from the bond interface accordingly. For static bonding without lacp, one would think that it is good enough to put the slave interface into the ective slave set as soon as it is configured. Wrong, sometimes the slave interface is configured to be part of the bonding without ever bringing up the hardware carrier or setting the admin state to up. In that case, we send traffic to the "dead" slave interface. The fix is to make sure both the carrier and admin state are up before we put the slave into the active set for forwarding traffic.

2018-04-24lacp: deleting the bond subinterface may cause lacp to lose the partner ↵Steven3-23/+2
[VPP-1251] Problem: When the bond subinterface is removed, it was observed that we lost the lacp partner. Show hardware shows rx counter goes up, but show interface does not for the slave interfaces. Cause: We reset the interface promiscuous mode when the bond subinterface is deleted. This causes dpdk not to accept any packet. Leave the interface in promiscuous mode fixes the problem. Other fixes: There are few places we use hw_if_index as if they are sw_if_index. But they don't necessarily have the same value. As soon as a subinterface is created, they start to diverge. The fix is to use the correct API for the hw_if_index and sw_if_index.

2018-04-13bond: ping fails between l2 BD [VPP-1238]Steven2-15/+76
In dpdk based bonding, when the bond interface is configured for l2, it automatically sets the bond interface to promiscuous mode and sets rx redirect to ethernet-input. This allows traffic to be bridged to non compute node facing interface when it is received from the compute node interface. For native vpp bonding, we need to do similar things. When the bond interface is configured for l2, we set the slave interfaces to promiscuous mode and set rx redirect to ethernet-input because dpdk does not know anything about the bond interface. Likewise, when a new interface is enslaved, we also need to do the same thing if the bond interface has already been configured for l2.

2018-04-12bond: 1 packet/frame == bad performance [VPP-1236]Steven1-6/+8
While https://gerrit.fd.io/r/#/c/11316/ took care of 1 packet/frame for most of the bonding modes, it missed the broadcast mode. This patch is to fix the 1 packet/frame for the broadcast mode. Change-Id: Iac48a2977c7f702f341479cc712a6448090dbc60 Signed-off-by: Steven <sluong@cisco.com>
2018-03-30bond: show trace causes a crash if the interface is deletedSteven2-9/+30
For the debug image, if the interface is removed and the trace was collected prior to the interface delete, show trace may cause a crash. This is because vnet_get_sw_interface_name and vnet_get_sup_hw_interface are not safe if the interface is deleted. The fix is to use format_vnet_sw_if_index_name if all we need is to get the interface name in the trace to display. It would show "DELETED" which is better than a crash.

2018-03-27bond: coverity woesSteven2-27/+32
coverity complains about statements in function A function A { x % vec_len (y) } because vec_len (y) is a macro and may return 0 if the pointer y is null. But coverity fails to realize the same statement vec_len (y) was already invoked and checked in the caller of function A and punt if vec_len (y) is 0. We can fix the coverity warning and shave off a few cpu cycles by caching the result of vec_len (y) and pass it around to avoid calling vec_len (y) again in multiple places.

2018-03-22bond: performance enhancementSteven3-155/+220
We were only puting one packet per frame to the output node. Change to buffer multiple packets per frame. Performance is now on top of dpdk-based bonding. Put a spinlock in the tx thread in case the rug is pulled under us. Change-Id: Ifda5af086a984a7301972cd6c8e428217f676a95 Signed-off-by: Steven <sluong@cisco.com>
2018-03-21bond: Add bonding driver and LACP protocolSteven6-0/+2767
Add bonding driver to support creation of bond interface which composes of multiple slave interfaces. The slave interfaces could be physical interfaces, or just any virtual interfaces. For example, memif interfaces. The syntax to create a bond interface is create bond mode <lacp | xor | acitve-backup | broadcast | round-robin> To enslave an interface to the bond interface, enslave interface TenGigabitEthernet6/0/0 to BondEthernet0 Please see src/plugins/lacp/lacp_doc.md for more examples and additional options. LACP is a control plane protocol which manages and monitors the status of the slave interfaces. The protocol is part of 802.3ad standard. This patch implements LACPv1. LACPv2 is not supported. To enable LACP on the bond interface, specify "mode lacp" when the bond interface is created. The syntax to enslave a slave interface is the same as other bonding modes.
