2017-10-24Add extern to *_main global variable declarations in header files.Dave Wallace5-3/+7
- Global variables declared in header files without the use of the 'extern' keword will result in multiple instances of the variable to be created by the compiler -- one for each different source file in which the the header file is included. This results in wasted memory allocated in the BSS segments as well as potentially introducing bugs in the application.

2017-10-14vhost: crash under heavy traffic condition due to memory corruption (VPP-1016)Steven1-2/+33
With heavy traffic, tx code path may crash due to memory corruption Thread 5 "vpp_wk_2" received signal SIGSEGV, Segmentation fault.

The assignment here in cpy surely causes memory corruption. It is only discovered later when the memory location that it corrupted is used. The condition for the crash is to transmit jumbo frames under heavy volume. Since ring size is 1024, with one packet taking up one index for frame size (less 2048), it does not cause overflow. With jumbo frames, it requires multiple indices for one packet, it can cause the overflow under heavy traffic. The fix is to do copy out when we have 1000 entries in the array to avoid overflow.

2017-10-09fix buffer allocation for sparse jumbo frames in vhostPierre Pfister1-1/+3
A bug was reported where a jumbo packet would stay in vhost queue forever or until a large enough number of other packets arrived in the queue too. This is due to a bug in vhost input node buffer allocation. The fix is to make sure that vhost always allocates at least enough buffers for one single big packet. '40' is used to account for 65kB frames.

2017-05-22vhost: migrate to use device infra for worker thread assignment, rx-mode.Steven4-484/+336
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>
2017-05-20vhost: buffers leak and interface disable upon vring descriptor out of mmapSteven1-16/+9
When processing a vring descriptor which is outside of mmap, we disable the interface and spit a message to shut/no shut the interface. This is not practical as application using vhost cannot constantly checking the logs and do the recovery. The proposed fix is to log an error, like other errors that we encounter. The other bug is buffer leak in the function rewind. At the end of the while loop when b_current != b_head, we still have to give back 1 more buffer or add 1 to rx_buffers_len.

2017-05-17vhost: bad packet assembled from descriptor chainingSteven1-1/+2
When the descriptor is chained via multiple parts, vhost is supposed to reassemble the different parts to form a packet prior to passing the packet to the next input node. However, bad packet was seen, having bad ethertype, source, and destination mac addresses. The problem was due to the destination pointer not being incremented as each chain is processed. THe result was the first chain is copied to the beginning of the buffer, the next chain is copied, then the last chain is also copied to the beginning of the buffer. As a result, the ethertype, source and destination mac, etc, are being overwritten by the very last chain of the descriptor.

- When the interface rx-mode is changed via CLI, the corresponding device may want to know about it and to reset the driver. This patch is to add the callback. - In the function vnet_hw_interface_set_rx_mode, it appears it is missing a line hw->rx_mode_by_queue[queue_id] = mode because the function is checking if the new mode is the same as hw->rx_mode_by_queue which is initialized to POLLING. So if the function is called to change the mode to interrupt, it just returns without doing anything. This is the check that I am talking about in the same function. if (hw->rx_mode_by_queue[queue_id] == mode) return 0; Change-Id: Iaca2651c43e0ae3fda6fd8dc128e247b0851cc65 Signed-off-by: Steven <sluong@cisco.com>

2017-04-06Use thread local storage for thread indexDamjan Marion6-126/+130
This patch deprecates stack-based thread identification, Also removes requirement that thread stacks are adjacent. Finally, possibly annoying for some folks, it renames all occurences of cpu_index and cpu_number with thread index. Using word "cpu" is misleading here as thread can be migrated ti different CPU, and also it is not related to linux cpu index.

2017-03-29vhost: vhost-user component may become unusable with too many open files ↵Steven1-9/+20
(VPP-668) When the number of open files is reached in the system, vhost may encounter a failure in socket call and return from vhost-user-process. The return terminates all attempts of incoming socket connections in the future, even if the condition is reconciled. The fix is to not return from vhost-user-process, record the error in the interface, spit out the error, and retry the connection every 3 seconds.

2017-03-28af_packet driver needs to check VLIB_BUFFER_NEXT_PRESENT flag is setJim Gibson1-1/+2
when walking vlib_buffer_t next_buffer chain on transmit. On buffer allocation: - next_buffer is not and may contain a stale invalid value that should be ignored if not overwritten by a valid value. - VLIB_BUFFER_NEXT_PRESENT flag is cleared and only set if a valid value is written to next_buffer.

2017-03-26Rename "show interfaces" -> "show interface"Dave Barach2-2/+2
To line up with "show interface placement," recently added. Otherwise, "show int" refers only to "show interface placement," which tends to annoy the cash customers... Change-Id: Iea9e3681aeb051e2b0e1ecbf06706d98af9a3abf Signed-off-by: Dave Barach <dave@barachs.net>
2017-03-22vhost: support interrupt modeSteven2-22/+322
vhost currently supports only polling mode. This patch is to add interrupt mode. When the interface is configured for interrupt mode, our input node does not get called unless there is a packet in the vring. If a particular CPU has one interface configured for polling mode and another in interrupt, the input node is set to polling for that CPU. This diffs also includes two crashes in vlib's dispatch_node. One is included in https://gerrit.fd.io/r/#/c/5516. The other crash is in the ASSERT. The ASSERT can become true when the caller of dispatch_node is in a loop. The first call converted the node to polling. The second call thereafter will hit the ASSERT.
