2017-05-22vhost: migrate to use device infra for worker thread assignment, rx-mode.Steven1-5/+2
and add adaptive mode support to receive queue - Migrate vhost to use device infra which does the interface/queue to worker thread assignment. - Retire vhost thread CLI and corresponding code which assigns interface/queue to worker thread. set interface placement should be used instead to customize the interface/queue to worker thread assignment. - Retire vhost interrupt/polling option when creating vhost-user interface. Instead, set interface rx-mode should be used. - Add code in vnet_device_input_unassign_thread to change the node state to interrupt if the last polling interface has left the worker thread for the device of the corresponding interface/queue. - Add adaptive mode support. The node state is set to interrupt initially. When the scheduler detects a burst of traffic, it switches the input node to polling. Then we inform the device that we don't need interrupt notification. When the traffic subsides, the scheduler switches the input node back to interrupt. Then we immediately tell the driver that we want interrupt notification again. - Remove some duplicate code in vlib/main.c Change-Id: Id19bb1b9e50e6521c6464f470f5825c26924d3a8 Signed-off-by: Steven <sluong@cisco.com>
2017-03-08vhost: binary API changes for interrupt modeSteven1-2/+5
Add operation_mode for create_vhost_user_if, modify_vhost_user_if, and sw_interface_vhost_user_details. Only polling mode is supported for these APIs. Other mode is rejected and gets VNET_API_ERROR_UNIMPLEMENTED error. Change-Id: I0596f4e2c087aa2b6f78eb3e0b63910b1859641e Signed-off-by: Steven <sluong@cisco.com>
2017-03-02Clean up binary api message handler registration issuesDave Barach1-9/+1
Removed a fair number of "BUG" message handlers, due to conflicts with actual message handlers in api_format.c. Vpp itself had no business receiving certain messages, up to the point where we started building in relevant code from vpp_api_test. Eliminated all but one duplicate registration complaint. That one needs attention from the vxlan team since the duplicated handlers have diverged. Change-Id: Iafce5429d2f906270643b4ea5f0130e20beb4d1d Signed-off-by: Dave Barach <dave@barachs.net>
