[dpdk-dev] [PATCH v2 4/4] if_proxy: add example application

Andrzej Ostruszka aostruszka at marvell.com
Tue Mar 10 12:10:37 CET 2020


Add an example application showing possible library usage.
This is a simplified version of l3fwd where:
- many performance improvements has been removed in order to simplify
  logic and put focus on the proxy library usage,
- the configuration of forwarding has to be done by the user (using
  typical system tools on proxy ports) - these changes are passed to the
  application via library notifications.

It is meant to show how you can update some data from callbacks (routing
- see note below) and how those that are replicated (e.g. kept per
lcore) can be updated via event queueing (here neighbouring info).

Note: This example assumes that LPM tables can be updated by a single
writer while being used by others.  To the best of author's knowledge
this is the case (by preliminary code inspection) but DPDK does not make
such a promise.  Obviously, upon the change, there will be a transient
period (when some IPs will be directed still to the old destination) but
that is expected.

Note also that in some cases you might need to tweak your system
configuration to see effects.  For example you send Gratuitous ARP to
DPDK port and expect neighbour tables to be updated in application which
does not happen.  The packet will be sent to the kernel but it might
drop it, please check /proc/sys/net/ipv4/conf/dtap0/arp_accept and
related configuration options ('dtap0' here is just a name of your proxy
port).

+ *   coordination with lcore loops and stopping/starting of the ports: for
+ *   example lcores not receiving on this port just mark it as inactive and stop
+ *   transmitting to it and the one with RX stops the port sets the MAC starts
+ *   it and notifies other lcores that it is back).
+ * - LPM is safe to be modified by one writer, and read by many without any
+ *   locks (it looks to me like this is the case), however upon routing change
+ *   there might be a transient period during which packets are not directed
+ *   according to new rule.
+ * - Hash is unsafe to be used that way (and I don't want to turn on relevant
+ *   flags just to excersize queued notifications) so every lcore keeps its
+ *   copy of relevant data.
+ * Therefore there are callbacks defined for the routing info/address changes
+ * and remaining ones are handled via events on per lcore basis.
