2019-06-18fib: fib api updatesNeale Ranns1-35/+92
Enhance the route add/del APIs to take a set of paths rather than just one. Most unicast routing protocols calcualte all the available paths in one run of the algorithm so updating all the paths at once is beneficial for the client. two knobs control the behaviour: is_multipath - if set the the set of paths passed will be added to those that already exist, otherwise the set will replace them. is_add - add or remove the set is_add=0, is_multipath=1 and an empty set, results in deleting the route. It is also considerably faster to add multiple paths at once, than one at a time: vat# ip_add_del_route 1.1.1.1/32 count 100000 multipath via 10.10.10.11 100000 routes in .572240 secs, 174751.80 routes/sec vat# ip_add_del_route 1.1.1.1/32 count 100000 multipath via 10.10.10.12 100000 routes in .528383 secs, 189256.54 routes/sec vat# ip_add_del_route 1.1.1.1/32 count 100000 multipath via 10.10.10.13 100000 routes in .757131 secs, 132077.52 routes/sec vat# ip_add_del_route 1.1.1.1/32 count 100000 multipath via 10.10.10.14 100000 routes in .878317 secs, 113854.12 routes/sec vat# ip_route_add_del 1.1.1.1/32 count 100000 multipath via 10.10.10.11 via 10.10.10.12 via 10.10.10.13 via 10.10.10.14 100000 routes in .900212 secs, 111084.93 routes/sec Change-Id: I416b93f7684745099c1adb0b33edac58c9339c1a Signed-off-by: Neale Ranns <neale.ranns@cisco.com> Signed-off-by: Ole Troan <ot@cisco.com> Signed-off-by: Paul Vinciguerra <pvinci@vinciconsulting.com>

2018-03-20FIB Interpose SourceNeale Ranns1-1/+2
The interpose source allows the source/provider to insert/interpose a DPO in the forwarding chain of the FIB entry ahead of the forwarding provided by the next best source. For example if the API source (i.e the 'control plane') has provided an adjacency for forwarding, then an interpose source (e.g. a monitoring service) couold interpose a replicatte DPO to copy the traffic to another location AND forward using the API's adjacency. To use the interose feature an existing source (i.e FIB_SOURCE_PLUGIN_HI) cn specifiy as a flag FIB_ENTRY_FLAG_INTERPOSE and provide a DPO to interpose. One might also consider using interpose in conjunction with FIB_ENTRY_FLAG_COVER_INHERIT to ensure the interpose object affects all prefixes in the sub-tree.

2018-03-09MPLS Unifom modeNeale Ranns1-2/+16
- support both pipe and uniform modes for all MPLS LSP - all API programming for output-labels requires that the mode (and associated data) is specificed - API changes in MPLS, BIER and IP are involved - new DPO [sub] types for MPLS labels to handle the two modes.

2018-01-23VPPAPIGEN: vppapigen replacement in Python PLY.Ole Troan1-0/+45
This is a version of the VPP API generator in Python PLY. It supports the existing language, and has a plugin architecture for generators. Currently C and JSON are supported. Changes: - vl_api_version to option version = "major.minor.patch" - enum support - Added error checking and reporting - import support (removed the C pre-processor) - services (tying request/reply together) Version: option version = "1.0.0"; Enum: enum colours { RED, BLUE = 50, }; define foo { vl_api_colours_t colours; }; Services: service { rpc foo returns foo_reply; rpc foo_dump returns stream foo_details; rpc want_stats returns want_stats_reply events ip4_counters, ip6_counters; }; Future planned features: - unions - bool, text - array support (including length) - proto3 output plugin - Refactor C/C++ generator as a plugin - Refactor Java generator as a plugin Change-Id: Ifa289966c790e1b1a8e2938a91e69331e3a58bdf Signed-off-by: Ole Troan <ot@cisco.com>
