Hi Cristian, I've got your comments. Thank you for review the code from a DPDK newbie. :-) I plan to submit a new patch to fix all during this week hopefully.
There are four places I'd like to discuss further: 1. Dedicated lcore for kni kernel thread First of all, it is a bug to add kni kernel core to the user space core mask. What I want is just to check if the kni kernel thread has a dedicated core. The reason I prefer to allocate a dedicated core to kni kernel thread is that my application is latency sensitive. I worry the context switch and cache miss will cause the latency increasing if the kni kernel thread and application thread share one core. Anyway, I think I should remove the hard coded check because it will be more generic. Users who has the similar usage like mine can achieve so through configuration file. 2. The compiler error of the Macro RTE_PORT_KNI_WRITER_STATS_PKTS_IN_ADD Actually I implements the macro similar to RTE_PORT_RING_READER_STATS_PKTS_IN_ADD first. But the scripts/checkpatches.sh fails: ERROR:COMPLEX_MACRO: Macros with complex values should be enclosed in parentheses I'm not share either I have done something wrong or the checkpatches script need an update. 3. KNI kernel operations callback To be honest, I made reference to the the KNI sample application. Since there is very little docs tell the difference between link up call and device start call, I am not sure which one is better here. Any help will be appreciate. :-) 4. Shall I use DPDK_16.07 in the librte_port/rte_port_version.map file? 2016-06-10 7:42 GMT+08:00 Dumitrescu, Cristian < cristian.dumitrescu at intel.com>: > Hi Ethan, > > Great work!

What I want is just to check if the KNI kernel thread has a dedicated core. The reason I prefer to allocate a dedicated core to KNI kernel thread is that my application is latency sensitive. I worry the context switch and cache miss will cause the latency increasing if the KNI kernel thread and application thread share one core. Anyway, I think I should remove the hard coded check because it will be more generic. Users who has the similar usage like mine can achieve so through configuration file. > > + > > + mask |= 1LLU << lcore_id; > > + } > > + > > app->core_mask = mask; > > APP_LOG(app, HIGH, "CPU core mask = 0x%016" PRIx64, app- > > >core_mask); > > } > > @@ -1236,6 +1254,11 @@ static void app_pipeline_params_get(struct > > app_params *app, > > n_bytes_per_pkt; > > } > > break; > > + case APP_PKTQ_IN_KNI: > > + out->type = PIPELINE_PORT_IN_KNI; > > + out->params.kni.kni = app->kni[in->id]; > > + out->burst_size = app->kni_params[in->id].burst; > > + break; > > default: > > break; > > } > > @@ -1374,6 +1397,12 @@ static void app_pipeline_params_get(struct > > app_params *app, > > out->params.sink.max_n_pkts = 0; > > } > > break; > > + case APP_PKTQ_OUT_KNI: > > + out->type = PIPELINE_PORT_OUT_KNI; > > + out->params.kni.kni = app->kni[in->id]; > > + out->params.kni.tx_burst_sz = > > + app->kni_params[in->id].burst; > > + break; > > default: > > break; > > } > > @@ -1397,6 +1426,55 @@ static void app_pipeline_params_get(struct > > app_params *app, > > } > > > > static void > > +app_init_kni(struct app_params *app) { > > + uint32_t i; > > + struct rte_kni_conf conf; > > + > > Avoid calling rte_kni_init() when there is no KNI device: > > if (app->n_kni == 0) > return; > > > + rte_kni_init((unsigned int)app->n_kni); > > + > > + for (i = 0; i < app->n_kni; i++) { > > + struct app_kni_params *p_kni = &app->kni_params[i]; > > + uint32_t port_id; > > Please rename port_id with link_id, as this index is really the x from > LINKx objects. > > > + struct app_mempool_params *mempool_params; > > + struct rte_mempool *mempool; > > + > > + if (sscanf(p_kni->name, "KNI%" PRIu32, &port_id) != 1) > > + rte_panic("%s's port id is invalid\n", > p_kni->name); > > Same comment as above: we do not need to check the x in KNIx, as LINKx is > (should be, after you adjust the config_parse.c code) added automatically > for KNIx. > > > + > > + mempool_params = &app->mempool_params[p_kni- > > >mempool_id]; > > + mempool = app->mempool[p_kni->mempool_id]; > > + > > + memset(&conf, 0, sizeof(conf)); > > + snprintf(conf.name, RTE_KNI_NAMESIZE, > > + "vEth%u", port_id); > > + conf.core_id = p_kni->core_id; > > The way the conf.core_id is set here is wrong, right? > > > conf.core_id = cpu_core_map_get_lcore_id(app->core_map, > p->socket_id, > p->core_id, > p->hyper_th_id); > > > + conf.force_bind = 1; > > + > > + conf.group_id = (uint16_t) port_id; > > + conf.mbuf_size = mempool_params->buffer_size; > > + > > + struct rte_kni_ops ops; > > + struct rte_eth_dev_info dev_info; > > + > > Please move these definitions at the top of the for loop block rather than > having them in the middle of the for loop block. > > > + memset(&dev_info, 0, sizeof(dev_info)); > > + rte_eth_dev_info_get(app->link_params[port_id].pmd_id, > > + &dev_info); > > + conf.addr = dev_info.pci_dev->addr; > > + conf.id = dev_info.pci_dev->id; > > + > > + memset(&ops, 0, sizeof(ops)); > > + ops.port_id = app->link_params[port_id].pmd_id; > > + ops.change_mtu = kni_change_mtu; > > + ops.config_network_if = kni_config_network_interface; > > + > > + app->kni[i] = rte_kni_alloc(mempool, > > + &conf, &ops); > > + if (!app->kni[i]) > > + rte_panic("Fail to create kni for port: %d\n", > port_id); > > rte_panic("Failed to create %s", p->name); > > This should print e.g. "Failed to create KNI5", which users should know it > is the KNI associated with LINK5. > > > + } > > +} > > + > > +static void > > app_init_pipelines(struct app_params *app) > > { > > uint32_t p_id; > > @@ -1531,6 +1609,7 @@ int app_init(struct app_params *app) > > app_init_swq(app); > > app_init_tm(app); > > app_init_msgq(app); > > + app_init_kni(app); > > > > app_pipeline_common_cmd_push(app); > > app_pipeline_thread_cmd_push(app); > > diff --git a/examples/ip_pipeline/kni/kni.c > b/examples/ip_pipeline/kni/kni.c > > new file mode 100644 > > index 0000000..c58e146 > > Please move the two functions from kni/kni.c to init.c (just before > app_init_kni() function) and make them static functions, then remove > kni/kni.h and kni/kni.c files. > > > --- /dev/null > > +++ b/examples/ip_pipeline/kni/kni.c > > @@ -0,0 +1,80 @@ > > +#include <string.h> > > + > > +#include <rte_common.h> > > +#include <rte_malloc.h> > > +#include <rte_table_array.h> > > +#include <rte_kni.h> > > +#include <rte_ethdev.h> > > + > > +#include "rte_port_kni.h" > > +#include "kni.h" > > + > > +int > > +kni_config_network_interface(uint8_t port_id, uint8_t if_up) { > > + int ret = 0; > > + > > + if (port_id >= rte_eth_dev_count() || port_id >= > > RTE_MAX_ETHPORTS) { > > + RTE_LOG(ERR, PORT, "%s: Invalid port id %d\n", > > + __func__, port_id); > > + return -EINVAL; > > + } > > + > > + RTE_LOG(INFO, PORT, "%s: Configure network interface of %d > > %s\n", > > + __func__, port_id, if_up ?
