2020-11-13ethernet: mac must support 64-bits loadsBenoît Ganne1-2/+13
ethernet dataplane loads MAC addresses as 64-bits loads for efficiency. We must make sure it is valid, especially for the vector of secondary MACs. Type: fix Change-Id: I851e319b8a973c154e85ff9f05f3b8e385939788 Signed-off-by: Benoît Ganne <bganne@cisco.com>
2020-05-27ethernet: fix DMAC check and skip unnecessary ones (VPP-1868)John Lo1-7/+14
Fix and optimize DMAC check in ethernet-input node to utilize NIC or driver which support L3 DMAC-filtering mode so that DMAC check can be bypassed safely for interfaces/sub-interfaces in L3 mode. Checking of interface in L3-DMAC-filtering state to avoid DMAC check require the following: a) Fix interface driver init sequence for devices which supports L3 DMAC-filtering to indicate its capability and initialize interface to L3 DMAC-filtering state. b) Fix ethernet_set_flags() function and its associated callback flags_change() functions registered by various drivers in interface infra to provide proper L3 DMAC filtering status. Maintain interface/sub-interface L3 config count so DMAC checks can be bypassed if L3 forwarding is not setup on any main/sub-interfaces.

2019-05-16init / exit function orderingDave Barach1-0/+1
The vlib init function subsystem now supports a mix of procedural and formally-specified ordering constraints. We should eliminate procedural knowledge wherever possible. The following schemes are *roughly* equivalent: static clib_error_t *init_runs_first (vlib_main_t *vm) { clib_error_t *error; ... do some stuff... if ((error = vlib_call_init_function (init_runs_next))) return error; ... } VLIB_INIT_FUNCTION (init_runs_first); and static clib_error_t *init_runs_first (vlib_main_t *vm) { ... do some stuff... } VLIB_INIT_FUNCTION (init_runs_first) = { .runs_before = VLIB_INITS("init_runs_next"), }; The first form will [most likely] call "init_runs_next" on the spot. The second form means that "init_runs_first" runs before "init_runs_next," possibly much earlier in the sequence. Please DO NOT construct sets of init functions where A before B actually means A *right before* B. It's not necessary - simply combine A and B - and it leads to hugely annoying debugging exercises when trying to switch from ad-hoc procedural ordering constraints to formal ordering constraints.

2017-10-24Add extern to *_main global variable declarations in header files.Dave Wallace1-1/+1
- 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.

This field is used only when VLIB_BUFFER_TOTAL_LENGTH_VALID and VLIB_BUFFER_NEXT_PRESENT are both set. - free_list_index is now stored in 4bits inside flags, which allows up to 16 free lists.

2017-03-03Implement a loopback instance allocation scheme.Jon Loeliger1-1/+5
To support creating loopback interfaces with a specific instance number, a new CREATE_LOOPBACK_INSTANCE API call with flag is_specified and value user_instance is introduced. Presumably the existing CREATE_LOOPBACK API message will be obsoleted and revmoved. The VAT cli commands can now mention and format the new field as 'instance %d' data. If no instance number is named, the old call CREATE_LOOPBACK is used to maintain backward compatibility. However, if the instance is named, the new CREATE_LOOPBACK_INSTANCE message will be used. Both the dynamically allocated and user-requested instance number are tracked in a bitvector. If is_specified is 0, the next free instance will be used.. A request for a specific instance number will be granted if it is available. On error, the value ~0 is returned.

2017-01-27IP Multicast FIB (mfib)Neale Ranns1-0/+2
- 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.
