port - NIC Port Representation
NIC port model.
Basic port information, such as location (the port are identified by their PCI address on a node), drivers and address.
- class PortIdentifier
Bases:
objectThe port identifier.
- node
The node where the port resides.
- Type:
str
- pci
The PCI address of the port on node.
- Type:
str
- __init__(node: str, pci: str) None
- class Port
Bases:
objectPhysical port on a node.
The ports are identified by the node they’re on and their PCI addresses. The port on the other side of the connection is also captured here. Each port is serviced by a driver, which may be different for the operating system (os_driver) and for DPDK (os_driver_for_dpdk). For some devices, they are the same, e.g.:
mlx5_core.- identifier
The PCI address of the port on a node.
- os_driver
The operating system driver name when the operating system controls the port, e.g.:
i40e.- Type:
str
- os_driver_for_dpdk
The operating system driver name for use with DPDK, e.g.:
vfio-pci.- Type:
str
- peer
The identifier of a port this port is connected with. The peer is on a different node.
- mac_address
The MAC address of the port.
- Type:
str
- logical_name
The logical name of the port. Must be discovered.
- Type:
str
- __init__(node_name: str, config: PortConfig)
Initialize the port from node_name and config.
- Parameters:
node_name (str) – The name of the port’s node.
config (PortConfig) – The test run configuration of the port.
- property node: str
The node where the port resides.
- property pci: str
The PCI address of the port.
- class PortLink
Bases:
objectThe physical, cabled connection between the ports.
- sut_port
The port on the SUT node connected to tg_port.
- tg_port
The port on the TG node connected to sut_port.
