200. vhost PMD Xstats test plan¶
200.1. Description¶
This test plan will cover the basic vhost pmd xstats test with with 10 tx/rx paths. Includes mergeable, non-mergeable, vectorized_rx, inorder mergeable, inorder non-mergeable, virtio 1.1 mergeable, virtio 1.1 non-mergeable，virtio 1.1 inorder mergeable, virtio 1.1 inorder non-mergeable, virtio1.1 vectorized path, also cover stability cases. From DPDK 22.07, vhost support per-virtqueue statistics, Per-virtqueue statistics collection will be enabled when the flag “RTE_VHOST_USER_NET_STATS_ENABLE” is set. It is disabled by default. Note IXIA or Scapy packes includes 4 CRC bytes and vhost side will remove the CRC when receive packests.
200.2. Prerequisites¶
200.2.1. Topology¶
Test flow:Traffic Generator –> NIC –> Vhost –> Virtio–> Vhost –> NIC –> Traffic Generator
200.2.2. Hardware¶
Supportted NICs: ALL
200.2.3. Software¶
200.2.4. General set up¶
Compile DPDK:
# CC=gcc meson --werror -Denable_kmods=True -Dlibdir=lib -Dexamples=all --default-library=static <dpdk build dir> # ninja -C <dpdk build dir> -j 110 For example： CC=gcc meson --werror -Denable_kmods=True -Dlibdir=lib -Dexamples=all --default-library=static x86_64-native-linuxapp-gcc ninja -C x86_64-native-linuxapp-gcc -j 110
Get the PCI device ID of DUT, for example, 0000:18:00.0 is PCI device ID:
<dpdk dir># ./usertools/dpdk-devbind.py -s Network devices using kernel driver =================================== 0000:18:00.0 'Device 159b' if=ens785f0 drv=ice unused=vfio-pci
200.3. Test case¶
200.3.1. Common steps¶
Bind 1 NIC port to vfio-pci:
<dpdk dir># ./usertools/dpdk-devbind.py -b vfio-pci <DUT port pci device id> For example:: ./usertools/dpdk-devbind.py -b vfio-pci 0000:00:18.0
Check the statistic type and number in each queue is correct. For example: send 1000 packets with 1028B size(includes 4 CRC bytes) with different destination IP to two queues, the total statistic number of tx_q0_size_1024_to_1518_packets and tx_q1_size_1024_to_1518_packets should be 1000, the statistics about the rx direction is the same. Send 1000 packets with ucast type with different destination IP to two queues, the total number of tx_q0_unicast_packets and tx_q1_unicast_packets should both be 1000, the statistics about the rx direction is the same.
