This library provides an easy way to generate traffic in order to test software based network components. This library enables the basic functionality required in the traffic generator. This includes: raw data setting, packet Tx and Rx, creation and destruction of a Gen instance and various types of data parsing. This functionality is implemented in "lib/gen/rte_gen.c". IPv4 parsing functionality is also added in "lib/net/rte_ip.c", this is then used in the gen library. A sample app is included in "examples/generator" which shows the use of the gen library in making a traffic generator. This can be used to generate traffic by running the dpdk-generator generator executable. This sample app supports runtime stats reporting (/gen/stats) and line rate limiting (/gen/mpps,<target traffic rate in mpps>) through telemetry.py. As more features are added to the gen library, the sample application will become more powerful through the "/gen/packet" string parameter (currently supports IP and Ether address setting). This will allow every application to generate more complex traffic types in the future without changing API. Harry van Haaren (6): gen: add files for initial traffic generation library gen: add basic Rx and Tx routines and tests gen: add raw packet data API and tests gen: add parsing infrastructure and Ether protocol gen: add gen IP parsing examples/generator: import code from basicfwd.c Ronan Randles (6): net: add string to IPv4 parse function net: add function to pretty print IPv4 examples/generator: enable gen library for traffic gen examples/generator: telemetry support examples/generator: link status check added examples/generator: line rate limiting app/test/meson.build | 4 + app/test/test_gen.c | 184 +++++++++++ app/test/test_net.c | 87 ++++++ doc/api/doxy-api-index.md | 3 +- doc/api/doxy-api.conf.in | 1 + examples/generator/main.c | 483 ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ examples/generator/meson.build | 13 + examples/meson.build | 1 + lib/gen/meson.build | 6 + lib/gen/rte_gen.c | 553 +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ lib/gen/rte_gen.h | 114 +++++++ lib/gen/version.map | 10 + lib/meson.build | 1 + lib/net/meson.build | 1 + lib/net/rte_ip.c | 58 ++++ lib/net/rte_ip.h | 38 +++ lib/net/version.map | 9 + 17 files changed, 1565 insertions(+), 1 deletion(-) create mode 100644 app/test/test_gen.c create mode 100644 app/test/test_net.c create mode 100644 examples/generator/main.c create mode 100644 examples/generator/meson.build create mode 100644 lib/gen/meson.build create mode 100644 lib/gen/rte_gen.c create mode 100644 lib/gen/rte_gen.h create mode 100644 lib/gen/version.map create mode 100644 lib/net/rte_ip.c -- 2.25.1
