2018-12-18PAPI: Add MACAddress object wrapper for vl_api_mac_address_tOle Troan1-2/+2
Change the definition of vl_api_mac_address_t to an aliased type. Change-Id: I1434f316d0fad6a099592f39bceeb8faeaf1d134 Signed-off-by: Ole Troan <ot@cisco.com>
2018-12-10Test framework: StringIO fixes for Python3Ole Troan1-1/+1
Add 2/3 support to binarytomac and mactobinary and move to vpp_mac.py Change-Id: I3dc7e4a24486aee22140c781aae7e44e58935877 Signed-off-by: Ole Troan <ot@cisco.com>
2018-05-25bond: performance harvestingSteven1-11/+3
- hash is great. But it is a bit too slow for the DP. Use direct array indexing to quickly retrieve the slave interface. - the algorithm used by flow hash is great. But it is a bit too slow for the DP. Use l2_hash_hash() extracted from lb_hash.h which ECMP is using. It makes use of intrinsic crc32 instruction set. - shortcut modulo arithmetic when the operand is 2**x (where x up to 4) to avoid division instruction. - special case for link count == 1 in bond_tx_fn() - use clib_mem_unaligned to access data for the packet to avoid alignment error - Fix some typos for packet tracing.

2018-03-21bond: Add bonding driver and LACP protocolSteven1-0/+282
Add bonding driver to support creation of bond interface which composes of multiple slave interfaces. The slave interfaces could be physical interfaces, or just any virtual interfaces. For example, memif interfaces. The syntax to create a bond interface is create bond mode <lacp | xor | acitve-backup | broadcast | round-robin> To enslave an interface to the bond interface, enslave interface TenGigabitEthernet6/0/0 to BondEthernet0 Please see src/plugins/lacp/lacp_doc.md for more examples and additional options. LACP is a control plane protocol which manages and monitors the status of the slave interfaces. The protocol is part of 802.3ad standard. This patch implements LACPv1. LACPv2 is not supported. To enable LACP on the bond interface, specify "mode lacp" when the bond interface is created. The syntax to enslave a slave interface is the same as other bonding modes.
