228. Cryptodev virtio Performance Application Tests

228.1. Description

This document provides the test plan for testing Cryptodev virtio performance by crypto perf application. The crypto perf application is a DPDK app under DPDK app folder.

Cryptodev virtio performance supports AESNI MB PMD, VIRTIO PMD

AESNI MB PMD algorithm table The table below contains AESNI MB algorithms which supported in crypto virtio perf. Part of the algorithms are not supported currently.

228.2. Prerequisites

qemu version >= 2.12 in qemu enable vhost-user-crypto:

./configure --target-list=x86_64-softmmu --enable-vhost-crypto --prefix=/root/qemu-2.12 && make && make install

the bin is in /root/qemu-2.12 folder, which is your specified

228.3. Test case setup:

VM
HOST

In Host:

# Enable config item(RTE_LIB_VHOST) by default in dpdk:

# Build DPDK and app vhost_crypto:

CC=gcc meson -Denable_kmods=True -Dlibdir=lib  --default-library=static x86_64-native-linuxapp-gcc
ninja -C x86_64-native-linuxapp-gcc -j 110

meson configure -Dexamples=vhost_crypto x86_64-native-linuxapp-gcc
ninja -C x86_64-native-linuxapp-gcc

# Run the dpdk vhost sample:

./x86_64-native-linuxapp-gcc/examples/dpdk-vhost_crypto --socket-mem 2048,0 --legacy-mem --vdev crypto_aesni_mb_pmd_1 -l 8,9,10 -n 4  -- --config "(9,0,0),(10,0,0)" --socket-file 9,/tmp/vm0_crypto0.sock --socket-file=10,/tmp/vm0_crypto1.sock

# bind vf or pf with driver vfio-pci:

usertools/dpdk-devbind.py --bind=vfio-pci 0000:60:00.0 0000:60:00.1

# Start VM by the qemu:

taskset -c 11,12,13,14 /root/qemu-2/bin/qemu-system-x86_64  -name vm0
    -enable-kvm -pidfile /tmp/.vm0.pid

    -device vfio-pci,host=0000:60:00.0,id=pt_0
    -device vfio-pci,host=0000:60:00.1,id=pt_1

In VM:

# enable config items in dpdk and compile dpdk:

CC=gcc meson -Denable_kmods=True -Dlibdir=lib –default-library=static x86_64-native-linuxapp-gcc ninja -C x86_64-native-linuxapp-gcc -j 10

# set virtio device:

modprobe uio_pci_generic
echo -n 0000:00:04.0 > /sys/bus/pci/drivers/virtio-pci/unbind
echo -n 0000:00:05.0 > /sys/bus/pci/drivers/virtio-pci/unbind
echo "1af4 1054" > /sys/bus/pci/drivers/uio_pci_generic/new_id
