Thanks for confirming Billy and Thomas.
Could you also check regarding link bonding (whether deployments use link 
bonding).

A single tenant interface + bonding (which means 2 phys interfaces bonded) will 
exercise the bonding code in dpdk for the egress traffic..
This will also dictate the spec of the traffic generator frames (likely range 
of L3 addresses) in order to do proper load balancing.


Best Regards,

   Alec

As per my action item from last meeting, I asked RedHat guy why they came up 
with testing with 2 physical interfaces instead of just one.

And the answer is really that they did that out of simplicity.
We should probably run some tests and see if using a single interface makes a 
difference (and take a decision based on that).

The person I talked to also mentioned that it is desirable to run tests with 
realistic flows and packet size rather than focusing on the very limited 64B 
Mpps test.

OK, this sounds convincing at least to em. Set for 09:00 - 10:00am PST 
tomorrow, Friday, 2-Dec.
I will set up webex, and advertise it on csit-dev and vpp-dev and on TWS page.
Give me an hour or so.. working in PST TZ makes me slower than UK - is it CA 
air? ;)

All,

We didn’t have much time to discuss the vhostuser use cases on CSIT project 
call earlier today.
On the call we also didn’t have all the interested parties that were providing 
feedback to date.

Hence agreed to hold a separate Tech WorkStream call to cover this.
Quick check on #fdio-csit irc, this Friday AM PST seems to work for folks.
What about 08:00-09:00 PST this Friday?
0900-10:00 PST would be better for me.


If yes, I will post meeting details here:

Here is the first draft:
    https://wiki.fd.io/view/CSIT/vhostuser_test_scenarios

I did my best to capture all inputs as per this thread. But it’s hardly 
readable yet - requires more TLC :)
See what you think - feel free to add/edit things directly on 
FD.io<http://fd.io/> wiki page.

Suggest to discuss next steps on csit weekly call tomorrow, details here:

All,

At last week's CSIT meeting, Maciek 
(mkons...@cisco.com<mailto:mkons...@cisco.com>) offered to compile a summary 
suggestions on this mailing list.

Hello Thomas,

Sorry I haven't reached out faster, I was travelling.

Please have a look at vppsb/vhost-test
It includes a standalone script which provides VPP and VM configuration for PVP 
tests.
- Runs testpmd in the VM
- Supports various CPU configuration for VPP
- Can run with or without gdb, debug or release

Not committed yet:
- Supports VM restart
- Support for VPP restart
- Support for multiple additional (dead) vhost interface

I did that outside of the context of CSIT so people can:
- Look at it and see what are the optimisations that are used
- Use it without CSIT

I will keep using and improving it because I use it for my own development and 
testing purposes.

Rest of this inline.

All:

Soliciting opinions from people as to vhost-user testing scenarios and guest 
modes in fd.io<http://fd.io/> CSIT testing of VPP - vhost-user.

I will forward to this mailing list as well as summarize any additional 
feedback.

I asked some people that happen to be here at OVSCON as well as some Red Hat 
and Intel people. I am also including some people that are involved in upstream 
vhost-user work in DPDK.

So far, I have the following feedback with an attempt to condense feedback and 
to keep the list small. If I left out anything, let me know.

In addition to the PVP tests done now with small packets.

Testpmd in guest is OK for now.

1 Add multiple VMs (How many?)
Makes sense to me. 2 is enough (4 would be good number).

2 Both multi-queue and single-queue
Yes. Ideally, 1-2-4 queues.
With different number of workers (0 workers, i.e. single VPP thread, 1 worker, 
queues*2 workers).

3 Tests that cause the equivalent of multiple flows in OVS. Varying variety of 
traffic including layer 2 and layer 3 traffic.
Yes. Should test with L2 and L3.

4 Multiple IF's (Guest or Host or Both?)
Possibly.
But more importantly, I think, we need to have VM restart and interface restart 
(delete - create).
OpenStack integration generates a significant amount of delete-recreate of 
vhost interface.


The following might not be doable by 17.01 and if not consider the following as 
a wish list for future:

1 vxLan tunneled traffic

2 VPP in guest with layer 2 and layer 3 vRouted traffic.

3 Additional Overlay/Underlay: MPLS
