Where the testpmd application is started in interactive mode, (-i|–interactive), it displays a prompt that can be used to start and stop forwarding, configure the application, display statistics, set the Flow Director and other tasks.
testpmd>
The testpmd prompt has some, limited, readline support. Common bash command- line functions such as Ctrl+a and Ctrl+e to go to the start and end of the prompt line are supported as well as access to the command history via the up-arrow.
There is also support for tab completion. If you type a partial command and hit <TAB> you get a list of the available completions:
testpmd> show port <TAB>
info [Mul-choice STRING]: show|clear port info|stats|fdir|stat_qmap X
info [Mul-choice STRING]: show|clear port info|stats|fdir|stat_qmap all
stats [Mul-choice STRING]: show|clear port info|stats|fdir|stat_qmap X
stats [Mul-choice STRING]: show|clear port info|stats|fdir|stat_qmap all
...
The testpmd has on-line help for the functions that are available at runtime. These are divided into sections and can be accessed using help, help section or help all:
testpmd> help
Help is available for the following sections:
help control : Start and stop forwarding.
help display : Displaying port, stats and config information.
help config : Configuration information.
help ports : Configuring ports.
help flowdir : Flow Director filter help.
help registers : Reading and setting port registers.
help filters : Filters configuration help.
help all : All of the above sections.
Start packet forwarding with current configuration after sending one burst of packets:
start tx_first
The functions in the following sections are used to display information about the testpmd configuration or the NIC status.

show port (info|stats|fdir|stat_qmap) (port_id|all)
The available information categories are:

The Flow Director works in receive mode to identify specific flows or sets of flows and route them to specific queues.
Two types of filtering are supported which are referred to as Perfect Match and Signature filters:
The Flow Director filters can match the following fields in a packet:
The Flow Director can also mask out parts of all of these fields so that filters are only applied to certain fields or parts of the fields. For example it is possible to mask out sub-nets of IP addresses or to ignore VLAN headers.
In the following sections, several common parameters are used in the Flow Director filters. These are explained below:
src: A pair of source address values. The source IP, in IPv4 or IPv6 format, and the source port:
src 192.168.0.1 1024
src 2001:DB8:85A3:0:0:8A2E:370:7000 1024
dst: A pair of destination address values. The destination IP, in IPv4 or IPv6 format, and the destination port.
flexbytes: A 2-byte tuple to be matched within the first 64 bytes of a packet.
The offset where the match occurs is set by the –pkt-filter-flexbytes-offset command-line parameter and is counted from the first byte of the destination Ethernet MAC address. The default offset is 0xC bytes, which is the “Type” word in the MAC header. Typically, the flexbyte value is set to 0x0800 to match the IPv4 MAC type or 0x86DD to match IPv6. These values change when a VLAN tag is added.

The Link Bonding functions make it possible to dynamically create and manage link bonding devices from within testpmd interactive prompt.
Create a new bonding device:
create bonded device (mode) (socket)
For example, to create a bonded device in mode 1 on socket 0.
testpmd> create bonded 1 0
created new bonded device (port X)
Adds Ethernet device to a Link Bonding device:
add bonding slave (slave id) (port id)
For example, to add Ethernet device (port 6) to a Link Bonding device (port 10).
testpmd> add bonding slave 6 10
Removes an Ethernet slave device from a Link Bonding device:
remove bonding slave (slave id) (port id)
For example, to remove Ethernet slave device (port 6) to a Link Bonding device (port 10).
testpmd> remove bonding slave 6 10
Set the Link Bonding mode of a Link Bonding device:
set bonding mode (value) (port id)
For example, to set the bonding mode of a Link Bonding device (port 10) to broadcast (mode 3).
testpmd> set bonding mode 3 10
Set an Ethernet slave device as the primary device on a Link Bonding device:
set bonding primary (slave id) (port id)
For example, to set the Ethernet slave device (port 6) as the primary port of a Link Bonding device (port 10).
testpmd> set bonding primary 6 10
Set the MAC address of a Link Bonding device:
set bonding mac (port id) (mac)
For example, to set the MAC address of a Link Bonding device (port 10) to 00:00:00:00:00:01
testpmd> set bonding mac 10 00:00:00:00:00:01
Set the transmission policy for a Link Bonding device when it is in Balance XOR mode:
set bonding xmit_balance_policy (port_id) (l2|l23|l34)
For example, set a Link Bonding device (port 10) to use a balance policy of layer 3+4 (IP addresses & UDP ports )
testpmd> set bonding xmit_balance_policy 10 l34
Set the link status monitoring polling period in milliseconds for a bonding devicie.
This adds support for PMD slave devices which do not support link status interrupts. When the mon_period is set to a value greater than 0 then all PMD’s which do not support link status ISR will be queried every polling interval to check if their link status has changed.
set bonding mon_period (port_id) (value)
For example, to set the link status monitoring polling period of bonded device (port 5) to 150ms
testpmd> set bonding mon_period 5 150
Show the current configuration of a Link Bonding device:

Slaves (3): [1 3 4]
Active Slaves (3): [1 3 4]
Primary: [3]
The Register functions can be used to read from and write to registers on the network card referenced by a port number. This is mainly useful for debugging purposes. Reference should be made to the appropriate datasheet for the network card for details on the register addresses and fields that can be accessed.
Display the value of a port register:
read reg (port_id) (address)
For example, to examine the Flow Director control register (FDIRCTL, 0x0000EE000) on an Intel® 82599 10 GbE Controller:
testpmd> read reg 0 0xEE00
port 0 PCI register at offset 0xEE00: 0x4A060029 (1241907241)
Display a port register bit field:
read regfield (port_id) (address) (bit_x) (bit_y)
For example, reading the lowest two bits from the register in the example above:
testpmd> read regfield 0 0xEE00 0 1
port 0 PCI register at offset 0xEE00: bits[0, 1]=0x1 (1)
Display a single port register bit:

For example, reading the lowest bit from the register in the example above:
testpmd> read regbit 0 0xEE00 0
port 0 PCI register at offset 0xEE00: bit 0=1
Set the value of a port register:
write reg (port_id) (address) (value)

port 0 PCI register at offset 0xEE00: 0x00000002 (2)
Set single bit value of a port register:
write regbit (port_id) (address) (bit_x) (value)
For example, to set the high bit in the register from the example above:
testpmd> write regbit 0 0xEE00 31 1

syn filter: on, priority: high, queue: 3
Add a Flex filter, which recognizes any arbitrary pattern within the first 128 bytes of the packet and routes packets into one of the receive queues.
add_flex_filter (port_id) len (len_value) bytes (bytes_string) mask (mask_value) priority (prio_value) queue (queue_id) index (idx)
The available information parameters are:
Example:
testpmd> add_flex_filter 0 len 16 bytes 0x00000000000000000000000008060000 mask 000C priority 3 queue 3 index 0
Assign a packet whose 13th and 14th bytes are 0x0806 to queue 3.
