Hi - I think this is going off topic for this thread, I suggest switching back 
to
other thread where I had made some suggestions. This may be better on 
ovs-discuss
also.

[dpdk-dev] dev@DPDK Hackathon Proposal

2015-05-19 Thread Rao, Ravi
Hi,
  I am currently interested to tryout on the compute nodes for measuring the 
performance on the data traffic. Can you please point to me any notes that I 
can refer to get the ovs-dpdk on the nova in kilo..
Thanks & regards,
Ravi

Hi Ravi,

 Kilo release of Openstack  allows to use ovs-dpdk with vhostuser. 
Nova includes vhost-user vif driver, and for neutron we have a mechanism driver 
and agent in stackforge project :
https://github.com/stackforge/networking-ovs-dpdk

The neutron part is hosted on stackforge because of vendor decomposition  going 
on in neutron.
The contains a devstack plugin and instructions on how to setup the node.

Let me know if you need more information.

Przemek

[dpdk-dev] dev@DPDK Hackathon Proposal

2015-05-19 Thread Rao, Ravi
Hi Przemek/Thomas,
   Thanks for the info. But when I am using the latest ovs and the DPDK2.0 the 
performance I am getting through the ovs switch is far less than non dpdk. 
I can send more info if you need. 
I am using dpdkvhost0 and dpdkvhos1 interfaces that are based on vhost_cuse to 
interact with VM. Is there any post that I can refer to see what I may be 
missing ?
Currently these are my tasks
1. Measure throughput with Just OVS on Host only == completed (600,000 pps) *No 
Flow control
2. Measure throughput with OVS+DPDK on Host only == completed (6.4 Mpps)
3. Measure throughput on Guest spunup using QEMU with OVS bridge on Host == 
completed (240,000 pps)
4. Measure throughput on Guest spunup using QEMU with OVS DPDK on Host == 
Having issues with perf just getting 60,000 pps
5. Measure throughput on Guest spunup using Openstack with just OVS on Compute 
node == completed (60,000 pps)
6. Measure throughput on Guest spunup using Openstack with OVS DPDK on Compute 
node. I can use the info provided by you and see if I can get this running ??
Regards,
Ravi..

[dpdk-dev] dev@DPDK Hackathon Proposal

2015-05-19 Thread Rao, Ravi
Hi All,
   Effort and emphasis has to be made to integrate DPDK into openstack 
components like neutron and nova so that this becomes part of std openstack 
release. 
Currently some work was done and published as a patch to devstack's Juno but 
there are no clear path to incorporate these patches to the mainline. I think 
this would be a very good topic to cover.
Regards,
Ravi

[dpdk-dev] dev@DPDK Hackathon Proposal

2015-05-19 Thread O'Driscoll, Tim
There wasn't any public response to this but we did discuss it with several 
people separately who all thought it was a good idea. Therefore, we've decided 
to go ahead with it. Siobhan is working on the plan now and should be in a 
position to make a formal announcement in a few weeks.

In the meantime, I wanted to let people know that this is going ahead so that 
you can:
a) Save the date. October 8th/9th, immediately after the European LinuxCon, in 
Dublin Ireland.
b) Think about topics that you'd like to see covered. We'll solicit for inputs 
when the formal announcement is made, but it's good for people to begin 
thinking about this now.

We'd like this to be quite an interactive event with a lot of discussion rather 
than just presentations. We plan to have many of our key DPDK developers there, 
so it will be a great opportunity to network, discuss the technical challenges 
that you're facing and help to build a stronger DPDK community.

We need to have this track with both:

Good idea, thanks for the reminders.

Some topics on top of my head:
   - community updates & workflow
   - status of PMDs: where are we comming from and where does it go
   -> should it converge with OS' drivers?
   - status of bifurcated drivers & security issues raised on netdev, 
any alternative?
   - status of testing:
   -> dts
   -> smoking tests

Best regards,
   Vincent

Hi all,

As a community we have virtually come together from all over the globe, 
developing now our third successful open source DPDK version with DPDK r2.0 
about to release.
It is astounding to comprehend the commitment and enthusiasm you have all 
shared to bring DPDK to this point.
With growing the community of developers in mind, and strengthening the 
networks and virtual collaborations that have come about,
I propose that we hold the first dev at DPDK Developer Hackathon this year.

Many people will be travelling to Dublin, Ireland for LinuxCon and CloudOpen 
October (5th-7th).
I propose that we hold a hands on 2 day hackathon Thursday October 8th and 
Friday October 9th to coincide with this offering, in Dublin.
>From a community perspective is a great opportunity to bring together the 
>people that make DPDK happen - the developers.
>From a developer perspective it is a great opportunity to be part of the first

and have a lot of fun on the way.

At this point the agenda is open - so if you see merit in this proposal please 
share your interest here so that we can gauge attendance
and gather ideas of what people would like the format to be.

Thanks,
Siobhan
