[vpp-dev] Bumping dpdk to 22.11 in vpp 23.02 ?

[Maciek Konstantynowicz (mkonstan) via lists.fd.io]

Hi,

On CSIT call just now Kai made us aware of issues with above (cryptodev, sat), 
as captured in this patch:

37840: dpdk: make impact to VPP for changes in API for DPDK 22.11 | 
https://gerrit.fd.io/r/c/vpp/+/37840

23.02 RC1 is next week and in CSIT we start testing at RC1 milestone, so it’s 
very last minute …

Also, in the past we got burned by DPDK bump requiring bumping firmware 
versions on FVL and CVL NICs, which for our performance testbed fleet is a bit 
of an operation (e.g. on Arm we have to remove the NICs and put them into Xeon 
machines to do firmware upgrade, unless things improved recently).

Asking for views if we could delay dpdk ver bumping to avoid rushing it in, 
especially that there are open issues?

Thoughts?

Cheers,
-Maciek

Re: [vpp-dev] [tsc-private] [csit-dev] TRex - replacing CVL with MLX for 100GbE

[Maciek Konstantynowicz (mkonstan) via lists.fd.io]

Hi Dave,

Per my action from the last week TSC meeting (item 4.c. in [1]), here is
the list of HW that FD.io<http://FD.io> project needs and that we can order any
time:

1. 28 NICs, 2p100 GbE from Nvidia / Mellanox - preferred:
   MCX613106A-VDAT, less preferred: MCX556A-EDAT, to cover the following
   testbeds:

   a. Performance 3-Node-ICX, 2 testbeds, 4 SUTs, 2 TGs
   b. Performance 2-Node-ICX, 4 testbeds, 4 SUTs, 4 TGs
   c. ICX TGs for other systems, 3 TGs
   d. 3-Node-Alt (Ampere Altra Arm N1), 1 testbed, 2 SUTs, 1 TG
   e. (exact breakdown in my email from 28 Jan 2022 in the thread below)

2. If we also want to add a MLX NIC for functional vpp_device test, that
   would be additional 2 MLX 2p100GbE NICs.

Things that we originally planned, but can't place orders as the HW is
not available yet:

3. TBC number of 2-socket Xeon SapphireRapids servers

   a. Intel Xeon processor SKUs are not available yet to us - expecting
  update any week now.
   b. Related SuperMicro SKUs are not available yet to us - expecting
  update any week now.

Hope this helps. Happy to answer any questions.

Cheers,
-Maciek

Hi,

Resending email from January, so it’s refreshed in our collective memory, as 
discussed on TSC call just now.

Number of 2p100GE MLX NICs needed for performance testing of Ampere Altra 
servers are listed under point 4 below.

Let me know if anything unclear and/or if any questions.

Cheers,
Maciek

Hi Ed, Trishan,

One correction regarding my last email from 25-Jan:-

For Intel Xeon Icelake testbeds, apart from just replacing E810s on TRex 
servers, we should also considder adding MLX 100GbE NICs for SUTs, so that 
FD.io<http://fd.io/> could benchmark MLX on latest Intel Xeon CPUs. Exactly as 
discussed on in our side conversation, Ed.

Here an updated calc with breakdown for Icelake (ICX) builds (the Cascadelake 
part stays as per previous email):

// Sorry to TL;DR, if you just want the number of NICs, scroll to the bottom of 
this message :)

(SUT, system under test, server running VPP+NICs under test)
(TG, traffic generator, server running TRex, needs link speeds matching SUTs')

1. 3-Node-ICX, 2 testbeds, 4 SUTs, 2 TGs
   - 4 SUT/VPP/dpdk servers
 - 4 ConnectX NIC, 1 per SUT - test ConnectX on SUT
   - 2 TG/TRex servers
 - 2 ConnectX NICs, 1 per TG - replace E810s and test E810 on SUT
 - 2 ConnectX NICs, 1 per TG - test ConnectX on SUT
 - 1 ConnectX NIC, 1 per testbed type - for TRex calibration
   - sub-total 9 NICs

2. 2-Node-ICX, 4 testbeds, 4 SUTs, 4 TGs
   - 4 SUT/VPP/dpdk servers
 - 4 ConnectX NIC, 1 per SUT - test ConnectX on SUT
   - 4 TG/TRex servers
 - 4 ConnectX NICs, 1 per TG - replace E810s and test E810 on SUT
 - 4 ConnectX NICs, 1 per TG - test ConnectX on SUT
 - 1 ConnectX NIC, 1 per testbed type - for TRex calibration
   - sub-total 13 NICs

3. ICX TGs for other systems, 3 TGs
   - 3 TG/TRex servers
 - 3 ConnectX NICs, 1 per TG - replace E810s and test ConnectX and other 
100GbE NICs on SUTs
 - 1 ConnectX NIC, 1 per testbed type - for TRex calibration
   - sub-total 4 NICs

4. 3-Node-Alt (Ampere Altra Arm N1), 1 testbed, 2 SUTs, 1 TG
   - 2 SUT/VPP/dpdk servers
 - 2 ConnectX NIC, 1 per SUT - test ConnectX on SUT
   - 1 TG/TRex server
 - will use one of the ICX TGs as listed in point 3.
   - sub-total 2 NICs

Total 28 NICs.

Hope this makes sense ...

Cheers,
Maciek

P.S. I'm on PTO now until 7-Feb, so email responses delayed.

Hi Ed, Trishan,

Following from the last TSC call, here are the details about Nvidia Mellanox 
NICs that we are after for CSIT.

For existing Intel Xeon Cascadelake testbeds we have one option:

- MCX556A-EDAT NIC 2p100GbE - $1,195.00 - details in [2].
- need 4 NICs, plus 1 spare => 5 NICs

For the new Intel Xeon Icelake testbeds

[vpp-dev] CSIT and VPP 22.02 known issues status check

[Maciek Konstantynowicz (mkonstan) via lists.fd.io]

Hi,

We have been discussing and working through a number of known issues since
VPP v22.02 and CSIT-2202 shipped.

Entering v22.06 rc2, so I thought it’s good time to take an
overall read of status, as jira is not always an accurate reflection.

Below my compilation based on CSIT-2202 report and listed jira
Tickets. 

Appreciate if folks could review and ack/nack/update the
status, and share their thoughts.

Cheers,

[vpp-dev] CSIT topics for VPP meeting today

[Maciek Konstantynowicz (mkonstan) via lists.fd.io]

Hi,

We would like to spend 5-10min doing the CSIT-2202 vpp rls notes review, 
specifically recorder failures and regressions.
Vratko and me will lead that.

If there is no time on the call agenda today, no sweat, we can do it on the 
next call.

[vpp-dev] topic proposal for today's vpp community call

[Maciek Konstantynowicz (mkonstan) via lists.fd.io]

Hi,

If possible, in today’s meeting, we would like to cover highlights of vpp 
performance regressions and test failures based on v22.02 rc2 testing in CSIT. 
5-10 min will suffice to cover the highlights.

Vratko will be sending current summary in email to vpp-dev and csit-dev before 
the meeting.

Apologies for sending this late, will understand if there is no time to cover 
this :)

Cheers,
Maciek

[vpp-dev] Thu 13-Jan FD.io CSIT talk at LFN Developer & Testing Forum

[Maciek Konstantynowicz (mkonstan) via lists.fd.io]

Dear All,

Some of us from CSIT will be giving a talk at this week LFN Developer &
Testing Forum (virtual event via Zoom, and it’s free to attend).

Title: FD.io CSIT Performance Benchmarking, Anomaly Detection, Results Tracking.

Time: Thursday 13th January 2021 13:00-14:00 GMT (London)

Abstract: 

In this talk we introduce FD.io CSIT core sub-project and give an
overview of the ways its Presentation-Analytics-Layer component
presents test results. We will focus on performance results and anomaly
detection, as a way to distinguish (probably) real performance changes
from the noisy data. And provide a sneak peak into the way test results
data is processed. Will use performance data from CI/CD automated tests
executed on Intel Xeon(skx, clx, icx), Atom, Arm servers running in
labs hosted by LFN FD.io. If you are interested in network performance
testing in general, or FD.io project specifically, this talk is for
you.

For FD.io CSIT session details see:

Dear Ameen, pls see inline.

Dear Maciek,

I didn't mean to be rude, but you know how it feels when you see a community of 
professionals for specific software and no one could help.

Understand.

I know that no one is obliged to help me, I was simply expecting more out of it.

My read is that folks are simply very busy, and number of people versed in 
ds-lite and other softwire technologies that VPP implements aplenty of, is not 
that large. So pls bear with this community, and keep trying. Someone wise once 
said "Energy and (constructive) persistence conquer all things”, especially 
when done with conviction of being right ;)

Cheers,
Maciek

Dear Ameen,

What specific statement in the email do you disagree with?

This is not a research paper, it is FD.io<http://fd.io/> CSIT release report 
capturing benchmarking and functional test data for v21.10 release.

Regarding your comment about "VPP and the system doesn't function”, I checked 
your statement about:

"I have asked here a million times about configuring ds-lite, no one helped.”

And found out that you have sent few emails (between 26-Sep and 28-Oct) to 
vpp-dev with questions about running ds-lite on vpp, and the last email was not 
answered.
I suggest you resend the email, and I am confident that FD.io<http://fd.io/>

CSIT-2110 Release Summary
-

BENCHMARK TESTS

- Intel Xeon Ice Lake: Added test data for these platforms. Current CSIT-2110
  report data for Intel Xeon Ice Lake comes from an external source (Intel
  labs running CSIT code on “8360Y D Stepping” and “6338N” processors).

- MLRsearch improvements: Added support for multiple packet throughput rates
  in a single search, each rate is associated with a distinct Packet Loss Ratio
  (PLR) criterion. Previously only Non Drop Rate (NDR) (PLR=0) and single
  Partial Drop Rate (PDR) (PLR<0.5%) were supported. Implemented number of
  optimizations improving rate discovery efficiency.

- TREX performance tests: Added initial tests for testing latency between 2
  ports on nic on the TRex. Added tests: IP4Base, IP4scale2m, IP6Base,
  IP6scale2m, L2bscale1mmaclrn.

TEST FRAMEWORK

- CSIT test environment version has been updated to ver. 8: Intel NIC 700/800
  series firmware upgrade based on DPDK compatibility matrix.

- CSIT in AWS environment: Added CSIT support for AWS c5n instances
  environment.

Re: [vpp-dev] [csit-dev] FD.io CSIT-2110 Release Report is published

[Maciek Konstantynowicz (mkonstan) via lists.fd.io]

Hi Stanislav,

You are welcome.

Thanks for spotting, and you are right, the af_xdp driver numbers did a nose 
dive indeed.
It’s visible on xeon skylake per your link references, and also on:
- intel xeon cascadelake [2], [3],
- arm thunderx2 [4].

Comparison tables [5], [6] provide a proof that the drop is due to CSIT test 
environment change from v7 to v8 [7], and unlikely due to VPP code.
We need to investigate.

Hope this makes sense.

Cheers,
Maciek

Re: [vpp-dev] FD.io CSIT-2106 Release Report is published

[Maciek Konstantynowicz (mkonstan) via lists.fd.io]

Caveat note :)

Number of the latency graphs in report show excessive numbers O(sec)
across frame sizes w/o and with load for both VPP and DPDK. 

Few of us in CSIT are working on the resolution, stay tuned. 
For now please ignore those numbers.

Cheers,
Maciek

Re: [vpp-dev] VPP: A Terabit Secure Network Data-plane

[Maciek Konstantynowicz (mkonstan) via lists.fd.io]

Hi, Arm tests are in CSIT reports e.g.

Taishan:
- ip4 
https://docs.fd.io/csit/rls2101/report/vpp_performance_tests/packet_throughput_graphs/ip4-3n-tsh-x520.html
- ipsec 
https://docs.fd.io/csit/rls2101/report/vpp_performance_tests/packet_throughput_graphs/ipsec-3n-tsh-x520.html

ThunderX2:
- ip4 
https://docs.fd.io/csit/rls2101/report/vpp_performance_tests/packet_throughput_graphs/ip4-2n-tx2-xl710.html

But these are older Arms. No N1/Ampere in LFN FD.io labs yet … been asking for 
a while.

Cheers,
Maciek

[vpp-dev] CSIT-2001 update: Xeon Skylake Performance and Progressions/Regressions RCAs

[Maciek Konstantynowicz (mkonstan) via lists.fd.io]

Dear All,

We have finally pushed out an update to CSIT-2001 report with VPP
performance data for testbeds with Intel Xeon Skylake processors (2n-skx
and 3n-skx testbeds), with SUT and TG servers impacted by firmware and
OS upgrades (BIOS, ucode, kernel updates with mitigations against the
newly discovered Spectre-Meltdown security vulnerabilities).

The updated CSIT-2001 report should be available for browsing just
before 15:00 UTC today, subject to Jenkins job execution (will have
updated version timestamp):

https://docs.fd.io/csit/rls2001/report/

https://docs.fd.io/csit/rls2001/report/vpp_performance_tests/csit_release_notes.html

In addition to 2n-skx and 3n-skx performance data available at the usual
locations in the report (see links [r1] to [r4] referenced below), we
have expanded the way we do VPP release-to-release comparisons and root
cause analysis (RCA) for any identified performance progressions and
regressions:

- CSIT test environment is now versioned, with ver. 1 associated
  with CSIT rls1908 git branch as of 2019-08-21, and ver. 2
  associated with CSIT master and rls2001 git branches as of
  2020-03-27.

- To identify SUT performance change(s) due to CSIT test environment
  change(s) from ver. 1 to ver. 2, VPP v19.08.1 has been re-tested
  in ver. 2 and results compared against the past data obtained with
  ver. 1. RCA1 analysis has been applied to this part. See [r5].

- To identify SUT performance change(s) due to VPP code change(s)
  from v19.08.1 to v20.01.0, both VPP versions have been tested in
  CSIT environment ver. 2 and results compared. Separate RCA2
  analysis has been applied to this part. See [r5].

- At this stage RCA1 and RCA2 analyses are focusing on progressions > +5%
  and regressions < -5%.

Attached pasted complete list of RCAs identified as part of this
exercise [1] to [12].

Hope it makes sense. For any questions and comments please contact
csit-...@lists.fd.io.

Regards,
Maciek
(on behalf of FD.io CSIT team)

[Maciek Konstantynowicz (mkonstan) via Lists.Fd.Io]

Update: CSIT-2001.09 maintenance report has been published:

https://docs.fd.io/csit/rls2001/report/

Changes from last week version include:

Added VPP performance test data into Detailed Results per testbed types:
  - 2n-clx (Xeon Cascadelake): IPv4, IPv6, L2.
  - 2n-dnv (Atom Denverton): IPsec, IPv4 tunnels.
  - 3n-hsw (Xeon Haswell): IPv4, L2, vhost.

Added VPP performance tests selected for analysis and graphs per testbed 
types:
  - 2n-clx (Xeon Cascadelake): all tests.
  - 3n-tsh (Arm Cortex-A72 Taishan): all tests.

Added DPDK performance tests selected for analysis and graphs per testbed 
types:

NOTE: Intel Xeon 2n-skx, 3n-skx and 2n-clx Testbeds microcode issue.

   VPP and DPDK performance test data is not included in this report
   version. This is due to the lower performance and behaviour
   inconsistency of these systems following the upgrade of processor
   microcode packages (skx ucode 0x264, clx ucode 0x52c), done
   as part of updating Ubuntu 18.04 LTS kernel version. Tested VPP and
   DPDK applications (L3fwd) are affected. Skx and Clx test data will
   be added in subsequent maintenance report version(s) once the issue
   is resolved. See https://jira.fd.io/browse/CSIT-1675.

Hi Dave, thanks for notifying, we have just discussed this on the CSIT project 
call, Vratko is looking into this.
Here are the incompatible API CRCs that are tripping the job. Will notify on 
this thread once issue is nailed down.

[vpp-dev] Published: FD.io CSIT-2001 Release Report

[Maciek Konstantynowicz (mkonstan) via Lists.Fd.Io]

Hi All,

FD.io CSIT-2001 report has been published on FD.io docs site:

https://docs.fd.io/csit/rls2001/report/

Many thanks to All in CSIT, VPP and wider FD.io community who
contributed and worked hard to make CSIT-2001 happen!

Below three summaries:
- Intel Xeon 2n-skx, 3n-skx and 2n-clx Testbeds microcode issue.
- CSIT-2001 Release Summary, a high-level summary.
- Points of Note in CSIT-2001 Report, with specific links to report.

Welcome all comments, best by email to csit-...@lists.fd.io.

NOTE: Intel Xeon 2n-skx, 3n-skx and 2n-clx Testbeds microcode issue.

VPP and DPDK performance test data is not included in this report
version. This is due to the lower performance and behaviour
inconsistency of these systems following the upgrade of processor
microcode packages (skx ucode 0x264, clx ucode 0x52c), done
as part of updating Ubuntu 18.04 LTS kernel version. Tested VPP and
DPDK applications (L3fwd) are affected. Skx and Clx test data will
be added in subsequent maintenance report version(s) once the issue
is resolved. See https://jira.fd.io/browse/CSIT-1675.

Re: [vpp-dev] [csit-dev] FDIO Maintenance - 2020-02-05 1900 UTC to 2400 UTC

[Maciek Konstantynowicz (mkonstan) via Lists.Fd.Io]

Hi Vanessa,

Many thanks for the heads-up.

Unfortunately 05-Feb hits is in the middle of CSIT-2001 release, per published 
schedule here: https://wiki.fd.io/view/CSIT/csit2001_plan

Is there any chance to postpone this upgrade till after 19-Feb, which is +1 
week after our report publish target in case we slip due to infra issues (we 
got affected by more SSD failures as you may know).

Pls let us know if this is possible.

Regards,
-Maciek

[vpp-dev] CSIT-1908 draft report preview available, need help with two VPP performance regressions

[Maciek Konstantynowicz (mkonstan) via Lists.Fd.Io]

Hi,

A draft version of CSIT-1908 test and benchmarking report is available
on the CSIT master report link:

  https://docs.fd.io/csit/master/report/index.html

Most of the selected benchmarking tests have been completed including:

- All Xeon Skylake and Haswell NDR and PDR tests - all in draft report.
- Most of Atom/Denverton NDR and PDR tests - to be added to draft report.
- Most of Arm/Taishan NDR and PDR tests - to be added to draft report.

Comparison tables show some Skylake NDR/PDR throughput regressions and
progressions vs. CSIT-1904:

- 
https://docs.fd.io/csit/master/report/vpp_performance_tests/comparisons/current_vs_previous_release.html

Their latest analysis is tracked in the two CSIT gerrit commits:

- csit1908_perf_analysis_2n_skx.md: https://gerrit.fd.io/r/c/csit/+/21637/
- csit1908_perf_analysis_3n_skx.md: https://gerrit.fd.io/r/c/csit/+/21641/

Most have been root caused to CSIT and are being addressed in CSIT
before CSIT-1908 report is published on Wednesday 04-Sep.

Two VPP packet paths, l2 bridge-domain and iacl statefull&stateless have
suspected cause: *vpp binary code change affecting throughput*.
Any assistance with these two is appreciated.

Cheers,
-Maciek-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-

[vpp-dev] Published: Tech paper - "Benchmarking SW Data Planes Intel Xeon Skylake vs. Broadwell"

[Maciek Konstantynowicz (mkonstan) via Lists.Fd.Io]

Hi,

We finally managed to get the go ahead to publish above technical paper.

  Workloads tested: VPP, OVS-DPDK, DPDK(testpmd,l3fwd), CoreMark.
  Processors tested: Intel Xeon Skylake vs. Broadwell.
  Compared side-by-side: performance and efficiency of workloads/processors.

Thanks to all involved in peer reviews!

Here are the LF links:

Re: [csit-dev] [vpp-dev] Heads up: API cleanup

[Maciek Konstantynowicz (mkonstan) via Lists.Fd.Io]

// re-adding vpp-dev, Neale, Ole

Vratko, thanks for spotting!
Spoke with Neale, he confirmed route add/del API changes should be transparent 
to VAT per his updates in [1].
If you spotted any VatExecutor breakage, then this would need to be fixed 
before [2] is merged.
And as CSIT embarked on VAT to PAPI migration, it makes sense to use the new 
PAPI syntax for all PAPI L1 keywords listed in [3].
Neale is kind to give here heads-up before merging [2], most likely next week.
Cheers,

I see this having a big impact on our tests

The change is big, look at .api files.
For example, I see ip_add_del_route
is being renamed to ip_route_add_del.

I believe we should start preparing in advance.

Subject: Re: [vpp-dev] Heads up: API cleanup


Hi,

In the spirit of this work I’d like to propose a change to the route add/del 
APIs to make use of the fib_path structure. The fib_path structure, which 
describes how to deal which the matched packets, is consistent across each of 
the route types; IP, MPLS, BIER and ABF.
By using a fib_path we can also pass more than one path for each route update, 
which is how most IP unicast protocols would normally operate. It is notably 
faster to add the route once with multiple paths, than add the route multiple 
times with one path.

  https://gerrit.fd.io/r/#/c/12296/

regards,
neale

Objet : [vpp-dev] Heads up: API cleanup

Apologies in advance. This is going to be painful for everyone using the API. 
In the neverending saga of cleaning up the APIs and making types more explicit, 
here are the changes I’d like to get in for 19.04:

u32 sw_if_index -> vl_api_interface_index_t

u8 ip4_address[4] -> vl_api_ip4_address_t

u8 ip6_address[16] -> vl_api_ip6_address_t

u8 is_ip6
u8 address[16] -> vl_api_address_t

u8 prefix_len
u8 prefix[4/16] -> vl_api_ip4_prefix_t / vl_api_ip6_prefix_t / vl_api_prefix_t

u8 is_ -> bool

u8 name[64] -> string name

u8 mac_address[6] -> vl_api_mac_address_t

u8 data[0]
u32 length -> u8 data[length]

The explicit types allow for much better type checking on the client side, as 
well as automatic mapping into the respective types on the client side. E.g. 
vl_api_address_t mapping into Python IPAddress object.

Best regards,
Ole

CSIT-18.10 is not the First release able using latest Intel Xeon Skylake
processors.  But it is the first release to present them in all of their
I/O optimized glory. See point Three below for throughput comparison
between Skylake and Haswell testbeds. This is finally, for the Second
time making VPP code shine in a modern software data world :)

Note that FD.io CSIT reports are now versioned using a notation

ordinal weeks of the year specified in ISO 8601 (http://bit.ly/2yZYI0h).
All FD.io CSIT releases will be suffixed with '.Www', a week

This takes care even of leap second by accommodating leap week. :)

[vpp-dev] FD.io CSIT Project weekly meeting - UTC GMT time change, UK and EU no change

[Maciek Konstantynowicz (mkonstan) via Lists.Fd.Io]

Hi,

Just wanted to make everyone aware that today’s call is taking 
place at 15:00-16:00 UTC, as UK and Europe moved away from Daylight
Saving Time (BST, CEST respectively), and looking thru the window
Summer time is definitely over, so time to change our regular habits :)

Updated details are in the usual place, on FD.io wiki:

https://wiki.fd.io/view/CSIT/Meeting

It is LFN FD.io wiki that is used to coordinate FD.io sub-projects'
events, but as it’s not automated nor intelligent, it doesn’t know
human time changed in some earthly TZs, but didn’t in other ones.

And as a critical mass of committers lives in England and Europe
geo locations, it’s is logical and functional, that meeting time
follows those geo locations. 

Cheers,
-Maciek

Hello devs,

Recently in CSIT we are facing the issue with vpp_api_test console with JSON

CSIT-18.07 happen!

CSIT-18.07 is the first release able to use the brand new FD.io labs and
testing servers equipped the latest Intel Xeon Skylake processors. See
point 3. below for throughput comparison between Skylake and Haswell
testbeds.
This is finally making VPP code shine in a modern compute world :)

The labs were long time in the making and they have finally
materialized. Thanks again to All who made it happen!

CSIT-18.07 report includes much more test results data and report html
layout got revamped quite a bit, striving to improve presentation
clarity and browsability. Test environment descriptions also got a
substantial makeover.

VPP points of note in the report:

  1. VPP release notes
a. Changes in CSIT-18.07 [1]
b. Known issues [2]

  2. VPP performance graphs
a. Throughput [3]

Dear All,

My personal preference is that make test  framework implements cpu assignment 
code.
It should't be rocket science to parse /sys/devices/system/cpu/online and give 
one cpu to each instance.
It will also help to test framework to understand how many parallel jobs it can 
run...

Enforcing single cpu assignment in vpp is done intentionally, to avoid cross 
numa memory allocation.
If main-core is not specified, vpp simply uses cpu core 1 (unless only 0 
exists).
While adding something like "cpu { main-core any} " should be quite straight 
forward, it will have broken
behaviour when dpdk is loaded and it will just confuse people. Also, we will 
need to come back to the
drawing board when we decide to run multiple workers in make test, as logic 
there is more complex and will likely require
rework of the thread placement code.

Hello,

>  What is the “significant problem” you’re running into?

The problem can be better described as: When python is spawning N instances of 
VPP process, all processes are from unknown reason placed with affinity 0x2 
(bin 10). This can be verified by taskset –p . CFS is then placing all 
VPP process to the same core, making it inefficient on multicore jenkins slave 
container.
The default vpp startup.conf is not modified thus there is no input to know 
where to pin the vpp threads. Simply one can said or think that this is related 
to python multiprocess/subprocess.popen code, which is hard-setting affinity 
mask to 0x2.

There are multiple solutions for workaround that Juraj proposed or Maciek, but 
none of them is answering why is this happening.

Juraj, My understanding is that if you’re starting VPP without specifying core 
placement in startup.conf [2] cpu {..}, then Linux CFS will be placing the 
threads onto available cpu core resources. If you’re saying this is not the 
case, and indeed the wiki comment indicates this, then the way to address it is 
to specify different core for main.c thread per vpp instance.

What is the “significant problem” you’re running into? Are tests not executing

Hi Maciek and vpp-devs,

I've run into a significant problem regarding VPP assignment to cores. All VPPs 
that are spawned are assigned to core 1. I looked at 
https://wiki.fd.io/view/VPP/Command-line_Arguments and I guess it's because 
that's the default behavior of VPP (dpdk coremask is not configured and  Note 
that the "main" thread always occupies the lowest core-id specified in the DPDK

Obviously, all VPP instances running on the same core goes against running the 
tests on multiple cores. There are a couple of solutions that come to mind:
• Assign VPP instances to cores manually. With possible multiple jobs 
running on a given host, this creates a situation where the different jobs 
don't know cores are already occupied (and by how many VPP instances) and thus 
introduces additional challenges to solve.

Re: [vpp-dev] [csit-dev] Draft proposal to introduce a new set of integration tests

[Maciek Konstantynowicz (mkonstan) via Lists.Fd.Io]

Adding vpp-dev.

Following reviews in csit-dev and CSIT project calls, here is an updated
proposal for a new set of FD.io<http://FD.io> VPP integration tests. The idea 
is to,
over time, migrate the VIRL test cases to VPP_Path and VPP_Device
integration tests describe below.

Test coverage gaps between existing VIRL and VPP make_test tests have been
documented in an online sheet [1]. Many thanks to Jan Gelety for the
analysis and CSIT contributors for their reviews.

Unless issues/objections, plan is to progress this work during rls1807 dev
cycle.

Hope this makes sense, let us know if questions.

VPP_Path Integration Tests
--

* Objective:(Integration) Functional acceptance of VPP feature
paths driven by use cases.
. Use cases defined as combinations of configurations
  and offered loads invoking multiple VPP packet
  processing paths.
. Tester: "Does it do what is expected based on
  configuration and offered load?"
. Includes regression tests based on field found bugs.
* Environment:  VPP make_test.
. VPP test framework based on Python unittest.
* Testing:  VPP SW only.
. api: vpp-papi.
. dp: pg-rx-{vpp_graph_nodes_path}–tx-pg.
* Results:  Test [PASS|FAIL].
* Analytics:gcc gcov for code line coverage.
* Continuous:   FD.io<http://FD.io> per vpp patch execution with jjb verify 
voting.
. Separate job from current vpp make verify(?).
* Availability: New development in FD.io<http://FD.io> CSIT.
. Partial coverage in VPP_Multi_Node Tests.
* Project:  FD.io<http://FD.io> CSIT.
. Plan: introduce in rls1807, test coverage driven by
  priority use cases and VIRL equivalence.
. Future:
.. Negative tests: API fuzzing (/Fuzzapi/API-fuzzer),
   packet/protocol fuzzing (Cisco-Talos/mutiny-fuzzer).

VPP_Device Integration Tests


* Objective:(Integration) Functional acceptance of VPP device driver
interactions.
. Tester: "Known VPP device and feature interactions
  must work!"
* Environment:  FD.io<http://FD.io> CSIT-CPL labs.
. CSIT Python and Robot Framework libraries and tests.
* Testing:  VPP SW on compute HW with network devices.
. VPP SW:
.. api: vpp-papi.
.. dp: int-dev–rx-{simple_VPP_graph_nodes_path}-tx-dev-int.
. Compute HW:
.. Xeon-Skylake, Arm and Atom nodes.
.. Cisco, Intel, Mellanox NICs.
* Results:  Test [PASS|FAIL].
* Analytics:None.
* Continuous:   FD.io<http://FD.io> per vpp patch execution with jjb verify 
voting.
* Availability: Depends on server and processor types.
. Xeon:
.. rls1807 - initial VPP and Scapy Pod/Container POC
   with VF drivers.
.. Future - per vpp patch execution with jjb verify
   voting.
. Arm:
.. rls1807 - initial VPP and Scapy Pod/Container POC
   with VF drivers.
.. Future - per vpp patch execution with jjb verify
   voting.
. Atom: TBC.
* Project:  FD.io<http://FD.io> CSIT.
    . Plan: progress in rls1807.

Thanks for all comments!

Here is an updated summary of both new test categories based
on received feedback.

(I removed the dependencies for clarity).

I’m also sending a separate email with a straw-man proposal
for parallelising functional HW device tests in VPP_Device.

Re: [vpp-dev] How to trigger perf test and compare the results

[Maciek Konstantynowicz (mkonstan) via Lists.Fd.Io]

Hi Zhiyong,

We’re in the process of adding gerrit triggers
to provide more complete coverage of MRR tests
per vpp patch.

What (NIC,featureset) combination(s) are you after?

You can compare with numbers available in perf dashboard.

Hi Guys,

   I need CSIT perf testing  to test patch.
   I have known that vpp-verify-perf-l2 can trigger perf test, but I 
only see the X520 results.

My questions are :

1.  how to trigger XL710 perf test?
2.  What do we compare it to … have the nightly build results?  where do I 
find those?
3.  These are MRR (maximum receive rate tests), how do we trigger NDP/PDR?


Thanks
Zhiyong
