Test Environment

CSIT VPP functional tests are executed in FD.io VIRL testbeds. The physical VIRL testbed infrastructure consists of three VIRL servers:

  • tb4-virl1:
    • Status: Production
    • OS: Ubuntu 16.04.2
    • VIRL STD server version: 0.10.32.16
    • VIRL UWM server version: 0.10.32.16
  • tb4-virl2:
    • Status: Production
    • OS: Ubuntu 16.04.2
    • VIRL STD server version: 0.10.32.16
    • VIRL UWM server version: 0.10.32.16
  • tb4-virl3:
    • Status: Production
    • OS: Ubuntu 16.04.2
    • VIRL STD server version: 0.10.32.19
    • VIRL UWM server version: 0.10.32.19
  • VIRL hosts: Cisco UCS C240-M4, each with 2x Intel Xeon E5-2699 v3 (2.30 GHz, 18c), 512GB RAM.

Whenever a patch is submitted to gerrit for review, parallel VIRL simulations are started to reduce the time of execution of all functional tests. The number of parallel VIRL simulations is equal to a number of test groups defined by TEST_GROUPS variable in csit/bootstrap.sh file. VIRL host to run VIRL simulation is selected based on least load algorithm per VIRL simulation.

Every VIRL simulation uses the same three-node logical ring topology - Traffic Generator (TG node) and two Systems Under Test (SUT1 and SUT2). The appropriate pre-built VPP packages built by Jenkins for the patch under review are then installed on the two SUTs, along with their /etc/vpp/startup.conf file, in all VIRL simulations.

SUT Settings - VIRL Guest VM

SUT VMs’ settings are defined in VIRL topologies directory

  • List of SUT VM interfaces:

    <interface id=”0” name=”GigabitEthernet0/4/0”/> <interface id=”1” name=”GigabitEthernet0/5/0”/> <interface id=”2” name=”GigabitEthernet0/6/0”/> <interface id=”3” name=”GigabitEthernet0/7/0”/>

  • Number of 2MB hugepages: 1024.

  • Maximum number of memory map areas: 20000.

  • Kernel Shared Memory Max: 2147483648 (vm.nr_hugepages * 2 * 1024 * 1024).

SUT Settings - VIRL Guest OS Linux

In CSIT terminology, the VM operating system for both SUTs that VPP-19.01.3 release has been tested with, is the following:

  1. Ubuntu VIRL image

    This image implies Ubuntu 16.04.1 LTS, current as of yyyy-mm-dd (that is, package versions are those that would have been installed by a apt-get update, apt-get upgrade on that day), produced by CSIT disk image build scripts.

    The exact list of installed packages and their versions (including the Linux kernel package version) are included in VIRL ubuntu images lists.

    A replica of this VM image can be built by running the build.sh script in CSIT repository.

  2. CentOS VIRL image

    This image implies Centos 7.4-1711, current as of yyyy-mm-dd (that is, package versions are those that would have been installed by a yum update, yum upgrade on that day), produced by CSIT disk image build scripts.

    The exact list of installed packages and their versions (including the Linux kernel package version) are included in VIRL centos images lists.

    A replica of this VM image can be built by running the build.sh script in CSIT repository.

  3. Nested VM image

    In addition to the “main” VM image, tests which require VPP to communicate to a VM over a vhost-user interface, utilize a “nested” VM image.

    This “nested” VM is dynamically created and destroyed as part of a test case, and therefore the “nested” VM image is optimized to be small, lightweight and have a short boot time. The “nested” VM image is not built around any established Linux distribution, but is based on BuildRoot, a tool for building embedded Linux systems. Just as for the “main” image, scripts to produce an identical replica of the “nested” image are included in CSIT GIT repository, and the image can be rebuilt using the “build.sh” script at VIRL nested.

DUT Settings - VPP

Every System Under Test runs VPP SW application in Linux user-mode as a Device Under Test (DUT) node.

DUT Port Configuration

Port configuration of DUTs is defined in topology file that is generated per VIRL simulation based on the definition stored in VIRL topologies directory.

Example of DUT nodes configuration:

DUT1:
    type: DUT
    host: "10.30.51.157"
    arch: x86_64
    port: 22

VPP Startup Configuration

VPP startup configuration is common for all test cases except test cases related to SW Crypto device.

Common Configuration

$ cat /etc/vpp/startup.conf
unix {
  nodaemon
  log /var/log/vpp/vpp.log
  full-coredump
  cli-listen /run/vpp/cli.sock
  gid vpp
}

api-trace {
## This stanza controls binary API tracing. Unless there is a very strong reason,
## please leave this feature enabled.
  on
## Additional parameters:
##
## To set the number of binary API trace records in the circular buffer, configure nitems
##
## nitems <nnn>
##
## To save the api message table decode tables, configure a filename. Results in /tmp/<filename>
## Very handy for understanding api message changes between versions, identifying missing
## plugins, and so forth.
##
## save-api-table <filename>
}

api-segment {
  gid vpp

}

cpu {
    ## In the VPP there is one main thread and optionally the user can create worker(s)
    ## The main thread and worker thread(s) can be pinned to CPU core(s) manually or automatically

    ## Manual pinning of thread(s) to CPU core(s)

    ## Set logical CPU core where main thread runs, if main core is not set

    # main-core 1

    ## Set logical CPU core(s) where worker threads are running
    # corelist-workers 2-3,18-19

    ## Automatic pinning of thread(s) to CPU core(s)

    ## Sets number of CPU core(s) to be skipped (1 ... N-1)
    ## Skipped CPU core(s) are not used for pinning main thread and working thread(s).

    ## Workers are pinned to N consecutive CPU cores while skipping "skip-cores" CPU core(s)

    ## Scheduling policy options are: other (SCHED_OTHER), batch (SCHED_BATCH)

    ## Scheduling priority is used only for "real-time policies (fifo and rr),

    ## Change UIO driver used by VPP, Options are: igb_uio, vfio-pci,

    # uio-driver vfio-pci

    ## Disable multi-segment buffers, improves performance but
    ## disables Jumbo MTU support
    # no-multi-seg

    ## Increase number of buffers allocated, needed only in scenarios with
    ## large number of interfaces and worker threads. Value is per CPU socket.
    ## Default is 16384
    # num-mbufs 128000

    ## Change hugepages allocation per-socket, needed only if there is need for
    ## larger number of mbufs. Default is 256M on each detected CPU socket
    # socket-mem 2048,2048

    ## Disables UDP / TCP TX checksum offload. Typically needed for use
    ## faster vector PMDs (together with no-multi-seg)

TG Settings - Scapy

Traffic Generator node is VM running the same OS Linux as SUTs. Ports of this VM are used as source (Tx) and destination (Rx) ports for the traffic.

Traffic scripts of test cases are executed on this VM.

TG VM Configuration

Configuration of the TG VMs is defined in VIRL topologies directory.

/csit/resources/tools/virl/topologies/double-ring-nested.xenial.virl

  • List of TG VM interfaces::

    <interface id="0" name="eth1"/>
<interface id="1" name="eth2"/>
<interface id="2" name="eth3"/>
<interface id="3" name="eth4"/>
<interface id="4" name="eth5"/>
<interface id="5" name="eth6"/>

TG Port Configuration

Port configuration of TG is defined in topology file that is generated per VIRL simulation based on the definition stored in VIRL topologies directory.

Example of TG node configuration::

TG:
    type: TG
    host: "10.30.51.155"
    arch: x86_64
    port: 22
    username: cisco
