2017-04-24Improve Load-Balance MAPsNeale Ranns1-1/+2
- only build them for popular path-lists (where popular means more than 64 children) the reason to have a map is to improve convergence speed for recursive prefixes - if there are only a few this technique is not needed - only build them when there is at least one path that has recursive constraints, i.e. a path that can 'fail' in a PIC scenario. - Use the MAPS in the switch path. - PIC test cases for functionality (not convergence performance) Change-Id: I70705444c8469d22b07ae34be82cfb6a01358e10 Signed-off-by: Neale Ranns <nranns@cisco.com>
2017-04-01MTRIE Optimisations 2Neale Ranns1-1/+5
1) 16-8-8 stride. Reduce trie depth walk traded with increased memory in the top PLY. 2) separate the vector of protocol-independent (PI) fib_table_t with the vector of protocol dependent (PD) FIBs. PD FIBs are large structures, we don't want to burn the memory for ech PD type 3) Go straight to the PD FIB in the data-path thus avoiding an indirection through, e.g., a PLY pool.

1 - make the default route non-special, i.e. like any other less specific route. Consequently, all buckets have a valid valid index of either a leaf or a ply. Checks for special indeices in the data-path can thus be removed. 2 - since all leaves are now 'real' i.e. they represent a real load-balance object, to tell if a ply slot is 'empty' requeirs chekcing that the prefix length of the leaf occupying the slot is slot than the minium value for that ply. 3 - when removing a leaf find the cover first, then recurse down the ply and replace the old leaf with the cover. This saves us a ply walk. Change-Id: Idd523019e8bb1b6ef527b1f5279a5e24bcf18332 Signed-off-by: Neale Ranns <nranns@cisco.com>

2017-01-27IP Multicast FIB (mfib)Neale Ranns1-1/+12
- IPv[46] mfib tables with support for (*,G/m), (*,G) and (S,G) exact and longest prefix match - Replication represented via a new replicate DPO. - RPF configuration and data-plane checking - data-plane signals sent to listening control planes. The functions of multicast forwarding entries differ from their unicast conterparts, so we introduce a new mfib_table_t and mfib_entry_t objects. However, we re-use the fib_path_list to resolve and build the entry's output list. the fib_path_list provides the service to construct a replicate DPO for multicast. 'make tests' is added to with two new suites; TEST=mfib, this is invocation of the CLI command 'test mfib' which deals with many path add/remove, flag set/unset scenarios, TEST=ip-mcast, data-plane forwarding tests. Updated applications to use the new MIFB functions; - IPv6 NS/RA. - DHCPv6 unit tests for these are undated accordingly.

2017-01-05FIB memory leaks (VPP-578)Neale Ranns1-15/+18
1) vec_free the fe_srcs of a fib_entry_t when the fib_entry_t is itself reed 2) in the load-balance fixup if a drop path is required add this to a new vector of next-hops 'fixed_nhs'. This vector is managed by the load-balance function. The caller continues to manage its own set. The function is now const implying that the caller is safe to assume the next-hops do not change.
