Commit Message

William Tu May 28, 2019, 8:12 p.m. UTC
The patch adds support for using DPDK's AF_XDP PMD.
Base on DPDK 19.08-rc0:
  commit c6a53a6bcd0ae52afe0a6d58b059af577c9408b3
  Author: Thomas Monjalon <thomas@monjalon.net>
  Date:   Tue May 14 18:04:37 2019 +0200

      version: 19.08-rc0

An AF_XDP PMD can be created by:

  $ ovs-vsctl add-port br0 afxdp-p0 -- set int afxdp-p0 type=dpdk \
       options:dpdk-devargs=net_af_xdp,iface=enp2s0,queue=0

  $ ovs-vsctl show
  Port "afxdp-p0"
    Interface "afxdp-p0"
      type: dpdk
      options: {dpdk-devargs="net_af_xdp,iface=enp2s0,queue=0"}

The performance of physical device loopback shows around 7Mpps with 64B pkt.

  $ ovs-ofctl add-flow br0 "in_port=afxdp-p0, \
       actions=set_field:14->in_port,set_field:a0:36:9f:33:b1:40->dl_src,afxdp-p0"

Note: I have to set e_RTE_METER_GREEN to 0 to pass compile.

I'm confused. I didn't try, but I thought that this should work out-of-the-box
without any changes to OVS. Basically, your rte_eal_hotplug_add() and rte_dev_probe()
that we're using right now are the same function with different way of passing
arguments. Have you tried to just use above command without this patch applied?
What happens in this case?

Another option you may try is:

ovs-vsctl add-port br0 afxdp-p0 -- set interface afxdp-p0 type=dpdk \
          options:dpdk-devargs="vdev:net_af_xdp,iface=enp2s0,queue=0"

so DPDK will not have to guess the bus type.

You may use 'dpdk-latest' OVS branch. The proper fix exists there.
In general, patches that intended to work only with latest DPDK that
not yet supported on master should be made on top of 'dpdk-latest'
branch and have [PATCH dpdk-latest] subject prefix.

Best regards, Ilya Maximets.

It actually works! When adding the device:

I also measured the performance, it works fine and shows around 7Mpps.

So without my patch, if I do:
ovs-vsctl add-port br0 afxdp-p0 -- set int afxdp-p0 type=dpdk \
      options:dpdk-devargs=net_af_xdp,iface=enp2s0,queue=0

It also works:
2019-05-29T17:53:39.981Z|00044|netdev_dpdk|INFO|Device
'net_af_xdp,iface=enp2s0,queue=0' attached to DPDK

ovs-vsctl show
Port "afxdp-p0"
            Interface "afxdp-p0"
                type: dpdk
                options: {dpdk-devargs="net_af_xdp,iface=enp2s0,queue=0"}

And the only problem is when removing the device
ovs-vsctl del-port afxdp-p0
2019-05-29T17:54:27.671Z|00055|dpdk|ERR|EAL: Driver cannot detach the
device (net_af_xdp)
2019-05-29T17:54:27.671Z|00056|dpdk|ERR|EAL: Failed to detach device

Thanks for the logs. It looks like a bug in DPDK.
Does rte_eal_hotplug_remove() works without issues?
Unfortunately, I have no setup to test myself.

You may also use following patch to get more information about detaching
failure: https://mail.openvswitch.org/pipermail/ovs-dev/2019-May/359367.html

Another possible issue is that you're using driver base name (net_af_xdp)
as a name of DPDK device. Maybe this causes some issues.
Try following devargs: "vdev:net_af_xdp0,iface=enp2s0,queue=0".

Best regards, Ilya Maximets.

Right, no issue. reason below:

Thanks, -1 is returned
2019-05-30T19:41:26.467Z|00055|netdev_dpdk|ERR|Device
'vdev:net_af_xdp0,iface=enp2s0,queue=0' can not be detached: Operation
not permitted.

The root cause is at
rte_dev_remove
  local_dev_remove
    ret = dev->bus->unplug(dev);
      rte_pmd_af_xdp_remove()

At  rte_pmd_af_xdp_remove()
/* find the ethdev entry */
  eth_dev = rte_eth_dev_allocated(rte_vdev_device_name(dev));
  if (eth_dev == NULL)
    return -1;  // failed here

And the reason rte_eth_dev_allocated find no device is that
at _rte_eth_dev_allocated
the rte_eth_devices[i].data is an empty string.

And the reason is that at rte_eth_dev_close
it calls
    if ((dev->data->dev_flags & RTE_ETH_DEV_CLOSE_REMOVE) != 0) {
        /* new behaviour: send event + reset state + free all data */
        rte_eth_dev_release_port(dev);

the rte_eth_dev_release_port clear the dev->data->name
        memset(eth_dev->data, 0, sizeof(struct rte_eth_dev_data));

Yes, I use the above comment.

Thanks for detailed investigation. So, it's just a DPDK bug.
I think that we need to simply replace 'return -1' with 'return 0' here.

The life-cycle of a DPDK port is following:

    rte_dev_probe()     <-- attaches device to dpdk bus.
    rte_eth_dev_configure()
    rte_eth_dev_start()
    rte_eth_dev_stop()
    rte_eth_dev_close() <-- closes the eth device.
    rte_dev_remove()    <-- detaches device from dpdk bus.

af_xdp pmd driver advertises RTE_ETH_DEV_CLOSE_REMOVE, so it frees all
the resources on rte_eth_dev_close(). rte_dev_remove() tries to detach
device from the vdev bus. It subsequently calls rte_pmd_af_xdp_remove()
that tries to free already freed resources and fails.
I think that rte_pmd_af_xdp_remove() should just ignore this case
reporting successful removal, otherwise device will never be detached
from vdev bus reporting failure of driver->remove() callback.

Will you prepare the patch for this?
If you wish, I could prepare it myself on Monday.

Best regards, Ilya Maximets.

Thanks for the explanation. Much clear to me now.

Yes, I will test it and send out patch to dpdk-dev.
