I meant to say that there should be no functionality issues if rps_cpus is not 
set.

Hi Raja,

Will there be functionality issues if rps_cpus is not set. We did not face any 
issue in basic functionally.

Hi Pramod,
    RPS on pkt2 is a performance optimization to use multiple CPU cores in the 
vrouter receive path. This hasn’t been tried on virtualbox until now to my 
knowledge and I’m not sure if it would have a significant impact in this 
scenario. There should be  functionality issues if rps_cpus is not set.

Hi Anand,

I am still seeing the issue after i applied the patch. The moment the script 
writes rps_cpu value , vhost0 loses connectivity.

Hi Anand,

We are currently using Contrail v2.1 on 3.13.0-65 on virtualbox, whereas on BM 
we are using v2.1 on 3.13.0-63 (here it works fine, without the necessary patch)

I will apply the patch and let you know in virtualbox.

Which contrail version are you using?


There is a known issue in ubuntu with kernels equal to above 3.13.0-63. You

can look at

Explicitly bring up the interfaces used for RPS/GRO · 
Juniper/contrail-packaging@c26b0a9
In the ubuntu version of 3.13.0 (-63, onwards), packets are dropped by the 
kernel if the incoming interface is not up (a possibility with virtual 
interfaces). So, explicitly bring those interfaces ...

Subject: [opencontrail-dev] Issues in Host connectivity when running contrail 
vrouter on virtualbox

Hi All,

We are running a contrail setup using vagrant with virtualbox as the hypervisor.

In a compute node running contrail vrouter , we see the node losing host 
connectivity after vrouter kernal module is inserted and the vhost0 is up.

We use the script if-vhost0 , which calls vrouter-functions.sh to insert the 
vrouter kernal module and configure pkt1 and pkt2 interfaces.

After debugging we found that the issue is caused when the vrouter-functions.sh 
changes the rps settings in pkt2 queues.

We see this behaviour only in virtualbox. Is this a known issue , also what is 
the impact if we disable setting of rps  in pkt2
