Subject: [dpdk-dev] [PATCH v5 2/5] kni: set default carrier state of interface
Date: Thu, 18 Oct 2018 21:23:55 -0300	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20181019002358.17132-3-dg@adax.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20181019002358.17132-1-dg@adax.com>

Add module parameter 'carrier='on|off' to set the default carrier state
for linux network interfaces created by the KNI module.  The default
carrier state is 'off'.

For KNI interfaces which need to reflect the carrier state of
a physical Ethernet port controlled by the DPDK application, the
default carrier state should be left set to 'off'.  The application
can set the carrier state of the KNI interface to reflect the state
of the physical Ethernet port using rte_kni_update_link().

For KNI interfaces which are purely virtual, the default carrier
state can be set to 'on'.  This enables the KNI interface to be
used without having to explicity set the carrier state to 'on'
using rte_kni_update_link().

 The DPDK KNI Kernel Module
 --------------------------
 
-The KNI kernel loadable module provides support for two types of devices:

+that is used by the DPDK KNI API functions to control and communicate with
+the kernel module.
 
-    *   Creates net devices (via ioctl  calls).
+The ``rte_kni`` kernel module contains several optional parameters which
+can be specified when the module is loaded to control its behavior:
 
-    *   Maintains a kernel thread context shared by all KNI instances
-        (simulating the RX side of the net driver).
+.. code-block:: console
 
-    *   For single kernel thread mode, maintains a kernel thread context shared by all KNI instances
-        (simulating the RX side of the net driver).

+Loading the ``rte_kni`` kernel module without any optional parameters is
+the typical way a DPDK application gets packets into and out of the kernel
+network stack.  Without any parameters, only one kernel thread is created
+for all KNI devices for packet receiving in kernel side, loopback mode is
+disabled, and the default carrier state of KNI interfaces is set to *off*.
 
-*   Net device:
+.. code-block:: console
 
-    *   Net functionality provided by implementing several operations such as netdev_ops,

+For testing, the ``rte_kni`` kernel module can be loaded in loopback mode
+by specifying the ``lo_mode`` parameter:
 
-KNI Creation and Deletion
--------------------------
+.. code-block:: console
+
+    # insmod kmod/rte_kni.ko lo_mode=lo_mode_fifo
+
+The ``lo_mode_fifo`` loopback option will loop back ring enqueue/dequeue
+operations in kernel space.
+
+.. code-block:: console
+
+    # insmod kmod/rte_kni.ko lo_mode=lo_mode_fifo_skb
+
+The ``lo_mode_fifo_skb`` loopback option will loop back ring enqueue/dequeue
+operations and sk buffer copies in kernel space.
+
+If the ``lo_mode`` parameter is not specified, loopback mode is disabled.
+
+Kernel Thread Mode
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+
+To provide flexibility of performance, the ``rte_kni`` KNI kernel module
+can be loaded with the ``kthread_mode`` parameter.  The ``rte_kni`` kernel
+module supports two options: "single kernel thread" mode and "multiple
+kernel thread" mode.
+
+Single kernel thread mode is enabled as follows:
+
+.. code-block:: console
+
+    # insmod kmod/rte_kni.ko kthread_mode=single
+
+This mode will create only one kernel thread for all KNI interfaces to
+receive data on the kernel side.  By default, this kernel thread is not
+bound to any particular core, but the user can set the core affinity for
+this kernel thread by setting the ``core_id`` and ``force_bind`` parameters
+in ``struct rte_kni_conf`` when the first KNI interface is created:
+
+For optimum performance, the kernel thread should be bound to a core in
+on the same socket as the DPDK lcores used in the application.
 
-The KNI interfaces are created by a DPDK application dynamically.
-The interface name and FIFO details are provided by the application through an ioctl call
-using the rte_kni_device_info struct which contains:
+The KNI kernel module can also be configured to start a separate kernel
+thread for each KNI interface created by the DPDK application.  Multiple
+kernel thread mode is enabled as follows:
 
-*   The interface name.
+.. code-block:: console
 
-*   Physical addresses of the corresponding memzones for the relevant FIFOs.
+    # insmod kmod/rte_kni.ko kthread_mode=multiple
 
-*   Mbuf mempool details, both physical and virtual (to calculate the offset for mbuf pointers).
+This mode will create a separate kernel thread for each KNI interface to
+receive data on the kernel side.  The core affinity of each ``kni_thread``
+kernel thread can be specified by setting the ``core_id`` and ``force_bind``
+parameters in ``struct rte_kni_conf`` when each KNI interface is created.
 
-*   PCI information.
+Multiple kernel thread mode can provide scalable higher performance if
+sufficient unused cores are available on the host system.
 
-*   Core affinity.
+If the ``kthread_mode`` parameter is not specified, the "single kernel
+thread" mode is used.
 
-Refer to rte_kni_common.h in the DPDK source code for more details.
+Default Carrier State
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
 
-The physical addresses will be re-mapped into the kernel address space and stored in separate KNI contexts.
+The default carrier state of KNI interfaces created by the ``rte_kni``
+kernel module is controlled via the ``carrier`` option when the module
+is loaded.
 
-The affinity of kernel RX thread (both single and multi-threaded modes) is controlled by force_bind and
-core_id config parameters.
+If ``carrier=off`` is specified, the kernel module will leave the carrier
+state of the interface *down* when the interface is management enabled.
+The DPDK application can set the carrier state of the KNI interface using the
+``rte_kni_update_link()`` function.  This is useful for DPDK applications
+which require that the carrier state of the KNI interface reflect the
+actual link state of the corresponding physical NIC port.
 
-The KNI interfaces can be deleted by a DPDK application dynamically after being created.
-Furthermore, all those KNI interfaces not deleted will be deleted on the release operation
-of the miscellaneous device (when the DPDK application is closed).
+If ``carrier=on`` is specified, the kernel module will automatically set
+the carrier state of the interface to *up* when the interface is management
+enabled.  This is useful for DPDK applications which use the KNI interface as
+a purely virtual interface that does not correspond to any physical hardware
+and do not wish to explicitly set the carrier state of the interface with
+``rte_kni_update_link()``.  It is also useful for testing in loopback mode
+where the NIC port may not be physically connected to anything.
+
+To set the default carrier state to *on*:
+
+.. code-block:: console
+
+    # insmod kmod/rte_kni.ko carrier=on
+
+To set the default carrier state to *off*:
+
+.. code-block:: console
+
+    # insmod kmod/rte_kni.ko carrier=off
+
+If the ``carrier`` parameter is not specified, the default carrier state
+of KNI interfaces will be set to *off*.
+
+KNI Creation and Deletion
+-------------------------
+
+Before any KNI interfaces can be created, the ``rte_kni`` kernel module must
+be loaded into the kernel and configured withe ``rte_kni_init()`` function.
+
+The KNI interfaces are created by a DPDK application dynamically via the
+``rte_kni_alloc()`` function.
+
+The ``struct rte_kni_conf`` structure contains fields which allow the
+user to specify the interface name, set the MTU size, set an explicit or
+random MAC address and control the affinity of the kernel Rx thread(s)
+(both single and multi-threaded modes).
+
+The ``struct rte_kni_ops`` structure contains pointers to functions to
+handle requests from the ``rte_kni`` kernel module.  These functions
+allow DPDK applications to perform actions when the KNI interfaces are
+manipulated by control commands or functions external to the application.
+
+For example, the DPDK application may wish to enabled/disable a physical
+NIC port when a user enabled/disables a KNI interface with ``ip link set
+[up|down] dev <ifaceX>``.  The DPDK application can register a callback for
+``config_network_if`` which will be called when the interface management
+state changes.
+
+In order to run these callbacks, the application must periodically call
+the ``rte_kni_handle_request()`` function.  Any user callback function
+registered will be called directly from ``rte_kni_handle_request()``
+so care must be taken to prevent deadlock or not block any DPDK fastpath
+tasks.  Typically DPDK applications which use these callbacks will need
+to create a separate thread or secondary process to periodically call
+``rte_kni_handle_request()``.
+
+The KNI interfaces can be deleted by a DPDK application with
+``rte_kni_release()``.  All KNI interfaces not explicitly deleted will be
+deleted when the the ``/dev/kni`` device is closed, either explicitly with
+``rte_kni_close()`` or when the DPDK application is closed.

-
-Link state and MTU change
--------------------------
-
-Link state and MTU change are network interface specific operations usually done via ifconfig.
-The request is initiated from the kernel side (in the context of the ifconfig process)
-and handled by the user space DPDK application.
-The application polls the request, calls the application handler and returns the response back into the kernel space.
-
-The application handlers can be registered upon interface creation or explicitly registered/unregistered in runtime.
-This provides flexibility in multiprocess scenarios
-(where the KNI is created in the primary process but the callbacks are handled in the secondary one).
-The constraint is that a single process can register and handle the requests.
