2019-11-26fib: Table ReplaceNeale Ranns1-11/+77
Type: feature from the API doc, a table replace is: " The use-case is that, for some unspecified reason, the control plane has a very different set of entries it wants in the table than VPP currently has. The CP would thus like to 'replace' VPP's current table only by specifying what the new set of entries shall be, i.e. it is not going to delete anything that already eixts. the CP delcartes the start of this procedure with this begin_replace API Call, and when it has populated all the entries it wants, it calls the below end_replace API. From this point on it is of coursce free to add and delete entries as usual. The underlying mechanism by which VPP implements this replace is purposefully left unspecified. " In the FIB, the algorithm is implemented using mark and sweep. Algorithm goes: 1) replace_begin: this marks all the entries in that table as 'stale' 2) download all the entries that should be in this table - this clears the stale flag on those entries 3) signal the table converged: ip_table_replace_end - this removes all entries that are still stale this procedure can be used when an agent first connects to VPP, as an alternative to dump and diff state reconciliation.

2019-06-18fib: fib api updatesNeale Ranns1-106/+118
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>

2017-05-23ARP/ND entries for the same address on different interfaces (VPP-848)Neale Ranns1-4/+4
there are, intentionally, no validation checks in the ARP/ND code to prevent an ARP/ND entry from being installed for an address that is not local to the interface's sub-net. This is ok, since the adjacency/FIB code is designed to handle this case using the 'refinement' criteria - i.e. only installing a FIB entry for the address if the address 'refines' (i.e. is more specific than) the interface's sub-net. However, the refinement criteria currently operates on the FIB entry's prefix (which is a /32, so on the address) and not on the next-hop in the path. So, enter multiple ARP entries for the same address on different links, and this refinement criteria uses only the last added path, and so will remove the FIB entry should the ARP entries be added in the 'wrong' order. This fix updates the refinement criteria to work on each path of the FIB entry. The entry is installed if one of the paths refines the covers and only paths refining the cover contribute forwarding. Per-path refinement checks are stored in path-extensions. The patch is rather large as path-extension, which were previously used only for out-going MPLS labels, have been generalized.

2017-04-07MPLS McastNeale Ranns1-142/+253
1 - interface-DPO Used in the Data-plane to change a packet's input interface 2 - MPLS multicast FIB entry Same as a unicast entry but it links to a replicate not a load-balance DPO 3 - Multicast MPLS tunnel Update MPLS tunnels to use a FIB path-list to describe the endpoint[s]. Use the path-list to generate the forwarding chain (DPOs) to link to . 4 - Resolve a path via a local label (of an mLDP LSP) For IP multicast entries to use an LSP in the replication list, we need to decribe the 'resolve-via-label' where the label is that of a multicast LSP. 5 - MPLS disposition path sets RPF-ID For a interface-less LSP (i.e. mLDP not RSVP-TE) at the tail of the LSP we still need to perform an RPF check. An MPLS disposition DPO performs the MPLS pop validation checks and sets the RPF-ID in the packet. 6 - RPF check with per-entry RPF-ID An RPF-ID is used instead of a real interface SW if index in the case the IP traffic arrives from an LSP that does not have an associated interface.

1 - use the SR policy to construct the replicate DPO. Each bucket therein is a SR tunnel. 2 - install a special mfib entry that links via this replicate 3 - forwarding is now mfib-lookup -> replicate -> sr_rewrite (per-tunnel) no need for a separate sr_replicate node. 4 - Stack the sr tunnel on the forwarding DPO of the first-hop FIB entry. no need for a second lookup post SR encap. 5 - fix some path-list lock leaks in the MFIB entry.

2017-01-27IP Multicast FIB (mfib)Neale Ranns1-0/+1096
- 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.
