Hi,
I am trying to run l2fwd application in ixgbe based network adapter.
Followed the below steps:
1. Add hugepages in grub commandline. 1024 pages of 2 MB allocated.
2. verify hugepages support in /proc/meminfo.
3.mounted huge pages as below:
mount -t hugetlbfs nodev /mnt/huge
4. built DPDK environment for x86_64-default-linuxapp-gcc.
5. built l2fwd applicaition after exporting $RTE_SDK and $RTE_TARGET.
I have three machines connected like this:
machine 1 <----> machine 2 <---> machine 3
machine 1 -> where pktgen runs to generate traffic
machine 2 -> l2fwd runs
machine 3 -> I should be able to observe packets here using tcpdump.??
First I run l2fwd like below (in machine 2):
./l2fwd -c f -n 4 -- -q 4 -p 3
Note port 1 and 2 are ixgbe port which are already bind to igb_uio driver.
Q1. My understanding is whatever traffic arrives in port 1 will be
forwarded to port 2.
and port 2 will be forwarded to port 1.
Please correct me here. ?
Q2. from machine 1 to machine 3 , ping should work??
In machine 1 , pktgen script is run as below :
==============
pktgen script used:
#!/bin/sh
# pktgen.conf -- Sample configuration for send on two devices on a UP system
#modprobe pktgen
#modprobe pktgen
function pgset() {
local result
echo $1 > $PGDEV
result=`cat $PGDEV | fgrep "Result: OK:"`
if [ "$result" = "" ]; then
cat $PGDEV | fgrep Result:
fi
}
function pg() {
echo inject > $PGDEV
cat $PGDEV
}
# On UP systems only one thread exists -- so just add devices
# We use eth0
echo "Adding devices to run".
PGDEV=/proc/net/pktgen/kpktgend_0
pgset "rem_device_all"
pgset "add_device eth0"
pgset "max_before_softirq 10000"
#pgset "add_device eth0"
# Configure the individual devices
echo "Configuring devices"
PGDEV=/proc/net/pktgen/eth0
#pgset "delay 0"
pgset "clone_skb 1000000"
pgset "pkt_size 60"
#pgset "min_pkt_size 60"
#pgset "max_pkt_size 60"
#pgset "min_pkt_size 92"
#pgset "max_pkt_size 92"
pgset "src_mac 70:71:BC:A8:5A:E8"
pgset "dst_mac 70:71:bc:dc:92:ab"
pgset "count 10000000"
# Time to run
PGDEV=/proc/net/pktgen/pgctrl
echo "Running... ctrl^C to stop"
pgset "start"
echo "Done"
cat /proc/net/pktgen/eth0
==============
Q3: In above script, is it mandatory to mention both source and
destination macs ??
Also, destination mac should "machine 3" 's mac address??
Q4: With the above setting , I "CANNOT" see the stats getting
incremented at all ?? I fear the traffic is not passing through the
ixgbe ports at all.
Q5: I have tried using testpmd application, here, all the packets are
shown in RX errors.
RHEL7, 3.10.32 kernel used. DPDK 1.6.0-18.zip used.

Is there any requirement to modify l2fwd appliucation with updated mac
address to make it work ?
In one example, it is mentioned something similar.
www.slideshare.net/hisaki/intel-dpdk-step-by-step-instructions
Also, in order to make ping work it is necessary to add static entry
for those IP addresses ?
Please let me know. Thanks,

Hi,
In terms of using ping: the Intel DPDK works below the IP level, and the basic l2fwd sample app has no concept of an IP address or what an ICMP ping message is, so you won't get a proper ping reply out of the application as there is no IP stack to reply. What it will do, its take the ping message and forward it out a different port.
As for the more basic question of receiving packets on the NIC, normally, yes, you would need to set the destination mac address of your packets to match that of the NIC port, but in this case I believe the l2fwd app switches the port to promiscuous mode so it should receive all packets sent to it. [Other sample apps often need a "-P" flag passed to them to do this.]
Regards,
/Bruce

I can get this working after some changes.
1. I have pci_assign=buses and intel_iommu=on present in grub.conf ,
Removed them
2. Before running l2fwd application, removed ixgbe driver. I was actually
getting some kernel errors without these steps, while running l2fwd application.
Now, I can see the packets getting forwarded using l2fwd application and able
to observe the packets using tcpdump.
Yes, as you said, ping is not getting reply back. but it is getting forwarded to
the other end ( observed using tcpdump).
Thanks!

You can also pass iommu=pt, then you can keep intel_iommu=on and have dpdk co-exist on native and virtialized.
