33Testpmd Runtime Functions
34=========================
35
36Where the testpmd application is started in interactive mode, (``-i|--interactive``),
37it displays a prompt that can be used to start and stop forwarding,
38configure the application, display statistics, set the Flow Director and other tasks::
39
40   testpmd>
41
42The testpmd prompt has some, limited, readline support.
43Common bash command-line functions such as ``Ctrl+a`` and ``Ctrl+e`` to go to the start and end of the prompt line are supported
44as well as access to the command history via the up-arrow.
45
46There is also support for tab completion.
47If you type a partial command and hit ``<TAB>`` you get a list of the available completions:
48
49.. code-block:: console
50
51   testpmd> show port <TAB>
52
53       info [Mul-choice STRING]: show|clear port info|stats|fdir|stat_qmap|dcb_tc X
54       info [Mul-choice STRING]: show|clear port info|stats|fdir|stat_qmap|dcb_tc all
55       stats [Mul-choice STRING]: show|clear port info|stats|fdir|stat_qmap|dcb_tc X
56       stats [Mul-choice STRING]: show|clear port info|stats|fdir|stat_qmap|dcb_tc all
57       ...
58
59
60.. note::
61
62   Some examples in this document are too long to fit on one line are are shown wrapped at `"\\"` for display purposes::
63
64      testpmd> set flow_ctrl rx (on|off) tx (on|off) (high_water) (low_water) \
65               (pause_time) (send_xon) (port_id)
66
67In the real ``testpmd>`` prompt these commands should be on a single line.
68
69Help Functions
70--------------
71
72The testpmd has on-line help for the functions that are available at runtime.
73These are divided into sections and can be accessed using help, help section or help all:

203
204For example::
205
206   testpmd> clear port stats all
207
208show (rxq|txq)
209~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
210
211Display information for a given port's RX/TX queue::
212
213   testpmd> show (rxq|txq) info (port_id) (queue_id)
214
215show config
216~~~~~~~~~~~
217
218Displays the configuration of the application.
219The configuration comes from the command-line, the runtime or the application defaults::
220
221   testpmd> show config (rxtx|cores|fwd|txpkts)
222
223The available information categories are:
224
225* ``rxtx``: RX/TX configuration items.
226
227* ``cores``: List of forwarding cores.
228
229* ``fwd``: Packet forwarding configuration.
230
231* ``txpkts``: Packets to TX configuration.
232
233For example:
234
235.. code-block:: console
236
237   testpmd> show config rxtx
238
239   io packet forwarding - CRC stripping disabled - packets/burst=16
240   nb forwarding cores=2 - nb forwarding ports=1
241   RX queues=1 - RX desc=128 - RX free threshold=0
242   RX threshold registers: pthresh=8 hthresh=8 wthresh=4
243   TX queues=1 - TX desc=512 - TX free threshold=0
244   TX threshold registers: pthresh=36 hthresh=0 wthresh=0
245   TX RS bit threshold=0 - TXQ flags=0x0
246
247set fwd
248~~~~~~~

253                     rxonly|txonly|csum|icmpecho)
254
255The available information categories are:
256
257* ``io``: Forwards packets "as-is" in I/O mode.
258  This is the fastest possible forwarding operation as it does not access packets data.
259  This is the default mode.
260
261* ``mac``: Changes the source and the destination Ethernet addresses of packets before forwarding them.
262
263* ``mac_retry``: Same as "mac" forwarding mode, but includes retries if the destination queue is full.
264
265* ``macswap``: MAC swap forwarding mode.
266  Swaps the source and the destination Ethernet addresses of packets before forwarding them.
267
268* ``flowgen``: Multi-flow generation mode.
269  Originates a number of flows (with varying destination IP addresses), and terminate receive traffic.
270
271* ``rxonly``: Receives packets but doesn't transmit them.
272
273* ``txonly``: Generates and transmits packets without receiving any.
274
275* ``csum``: Changes the checksum field with hardware or software methods depending on the offload flags on the packet.
276
277* ``icmpecho``: Receives a burst of packets, lookup for IMCP echo requests and, if any, send back ICMP echo replies.
278
279* ``ieee1588``: Demonstrate L2 IEEE1588 V2 PTP timestamping for RX and TX. Requires ``CONFIG_RTE_LIBRTE_IEEE1588=y``.
280
281Note: TX timestamping is only available in the "Full Featured" TX path. To force ``testpmd`` into this mode set ``--txqflags=0``.
282
283Example::
284
285   testpmd> set fwd rxonly
286
287   Set rxonly packet forwarding mode
288
289
290read rxd
291~~~~~~~~
292
293Display an RX descriptor for a port RX queue::
294
295   testpmd> read rxd (port_id) (queue_id) (rxd_id)
296
297For example::
298
299   testpmd> read rxd 0 0 4
300        0x0000000B - 0x001D0180 / 0x0000000B - 0x001D0180
301
302read txd
303~~~~~~~~
304
305Display a TX descriptor for a port TX queue::
306
307   testpmd> read txd (port_id) (queue_id) (txd_id)
308
309For example::
310
311   testpmd> read txd 0 0 4
312        0x00000001 - 0x24C3C440 / 0x000F0000 - 0x2330003C

315Configuration Functions
316-----------------------
317
318The testpmd application can be configured from the runtime as well as from the command-line.
319
320This section details the available configuration functions that are available.
321
322.. note::
323
324   Configuration changes only become active when forwarding is started/restarted.
325
326set default
327~~~~~~~~~~~
328
329Reset forwarding to the default configuration::
330
331   testpmd> set default
332
333set verbose
334~~~~~~~~~~~
335
336Set the debug verbosity level::
337
338   testpmd> set verbose (level)
339
340Currently the only available levels are 0 (silent except for error) and 1 (fully verbose).
341
342set nbport
343~~~~~~~~~~
344
345Set the number of ports used by the application:
346
347set nbport (num)
348
349This is equivalent to the ``--nb-ports`` command-line option.
350
351set nbcore
352~~~~~~~~~~
353
354Set the number of cores used by the application::
355
356   testpmd> set nbcore (num)
357
358This is equivalent to the ``--nb-cores`` command-line option.
359
360.. note::
361
362   The number of cores used must not be greater than number of ports used multiplied by the number of queues per port.
363
364set coremask
365~~~~~~~~~~~~
366
367Set the forwarding cores hexadecimal mask::
368
369   testpmd> set coremask (mask)
370
371This is equivalent to the ``--coremask`` command-line option.
372
373.. note::
374
375   The master lcore is reserved for command line parsing only and cannot be masked on for packet forwarding.
376
377set portmask
378~~~~~~~~~~~~
379
380Set the forwarding ports hexadecimal mask::
381
382   testpmd> set portmask (mask)
383
384This is equivalent to the ``--portmask`` command-line option.
385
386set burst
387~~~~~~~~~
388
389Set number of packets per burst::
390
391   testpmd> set burst (num)
392
393This is equivalent to the ``--burst command-line`` option.
394
395In ``mac_retry`` forwarding mode, the transmit delay time and number of retries can also be set::
396
397   testpmd> set burst tx delay (micrseconds) retry (num)
398
399set txpkts
400~~~~~~~~~~
401
402Set the length of each segment of the TX-ONLY packets::
403
404   testpmd> set txpkts (x[,y]*)
405
406Where x[,y]* represents a CSV list of values, without white space.
407
408set txsplit
409~~~~~~~~~~~
410
411Set the split policy for the TX packets, applicable for TX-ONLY and CSUM forwarding modes::
412
413   testpmd> set txsplit (off|on|rand)
414
415Where:
416
417* ``off`` disable packet copy & split for CSUM mode.
418
419* ``on`` split outgoing packet into multiple segments. Size of each segment
420  and number of segments per packet is determined by ``set txpkts`` command
421  (see above).
422
423* ``rand`` same as 'on', but number of segments per each packet is a random value between 1 and total number of segments.
424
425set corelist
426~~~~~~~~~~~~
427
428Set the list of forwarding cores::
429
430   testpmd> set corelist (x[,y]*)
431
432For example, to change the forwarding cores:
433
434.. code-block:: console
435
436   testpmd> set corelist 3,1
437   testpmd> show config fwd
438
439   io packet forwarding - ports=2 - cores=2 - streams=2 - NUMA support disabled
440   Logical Core 3 (socket 0) forwards packets on 1 streams:
441   RX P=0/Q=0 (socket 0) -> TX P=1/Q=0 (socket 0) peer=02:00:00:00:00:01
442   Logical Core 1 (socket 0) forwards packets on 1 streams:
443   RX P=1/Q=0 (socket 0) -> TX P=0/Q=0 (socket 0) peer=02:00:00:00:00:00
444
445.. note::

447   The cores are used in the same order as specified on the command line.
448
449set portlist
450~~~~~~~~~~~~
451
452Set the list of forwarding ports::
453
454   testpmd> set portlist (x[,y]*)
455

457
458.. code-block:: console
459
460   testpmd> set portlist 0,2,1,3
461   testpmd> show config fwd
462
463   io packet forwarding - ports=4 - cores=1 - streams=4
464   Logical Core 3 (socket 0) forwards packets on 4 streams:
465   RX P=0/Q=0 (socket 0) -> TX P=2/Q=0 (socket 0) peer=02:00:00:00:00:01
466   RX P=2/Q=0 (socket 0) -> TX P=0/Q=0 (socket 0) peer=02:00:00:00:00:00

604~~~~~~~~
605
606Select hardware or software calculation of the checksum when
607transmitting a packet using the ``csum`` forwarding engine::
608
609   testpmd> csum set (ip|udp|tcp|sctp|outer-ip) (hw|sw) (port_id)
610
611Where:
612
613* ``ip|udp|tcp|sctp`` always relate to  the inner layer.
614
615* ``outer-ip`` relates to the outer IP layer (only for IPv4) in the case where the packet is recognized
616  as a tunnel packet by the forwarding engine (vxlan, gre and ipip are
617  supported). See also the ``csum parse-tunnel`` command.
618
619.. note::
620
621   Check the NIC Datasheet for hardware limits.
622
623csum parse-tunnel
624~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
625
626Define how tunneled packets should be handled by the csum forward
627engine::
628
629   testpmd> csum parse-tunnel (on|off) (tx_port_id)
630
631If enabled, the csum forward engine will try to recognize supported
632tunnel headers (vxlan, gre, ipip).
633
634If disabled, treat tunnel packets as non-tunneled packets (a inner
635header is handled as a packet payload).
636
637.. note::
638
639   The port argument is the TX port like in the ``csum set`` command.
640
641Example:
642
643Consider a packet in packet like the following::
644
645   eth_out/ipv4_out/udp_out/vxlan/eth_in/ipv4_in/tcp_in
646
647* If parse-tunnel is enabled, the ``ip|udp|tcp|sctp`` parameters of ``csum set``
648  command relate to the inner headers (here ``ipv4_in`` and ``tcp_in``), and the
649  ``outer-ip parameter`` relates to the outer headers (here ``ipv4_out``).
650
651* If parse-tunnel is disabled, the ``ip|udp|tcp|sctp`` parameters of ``csum  set``
652   command relate to the outer headers, here ``ipv4_out`` and ``udp_out``.

922
923port attach
924~~~~~~~~~~~
925
926Attach a port specified by pci address or virtual device args.
927
928To attach a new pci device, the device should be recognized by kernel first.
929Then it should be moved under DPDK management.
930Finally the port can be attached to testpmd.
931
932For example, to move a pci device using ixgbe under DPDK management:
933
934.. code-block:: console
935
936   # Check the status of the available devices.
937   ./tools/dpdk_nic_bind.py --status
938
939   Network devices using DPDK-compatible driver
940   ============================================
941   <none>
942
943   Network devices using kernel driver
944   ===================================
945   0000:0a:00.0 '82599ES 10-Gigabit' if=eth2 drv=ixgbe unused=
946
947
948   # Bind the device to igb_uio.
949   sudo ./tools/dpdk_nic_bind.py -b igb_uio 0000:0a:00.0
950
951
952   # Recheck the status of the devices.
953   ./tools/dpdk_nic_bind.py --status
954   Network devices using DPDK-compatible driver
955   ============================================
956   0000:0a:00.0 '82599ES 10-Gigabit' drv=igb_uio unused=
957
958To attach a port created by virtual device, above steps are not needed.
959
960port attach (identifier)
961
962For example, to attach a port whose pci address is 0000:0a:00.0.
963
964.. code-block:: console
965
966   testpmd> port attach 0000:0a:00.0
967   Attaching a new port...
968   EAL: PCI device 0000:0a:00.0 on NUMA socket -1
969   EAL:   probe driver: 8086:10fb rte_ixgbe_pmd
970   EAL:   PCI memory mapped at 0x7f83bfa00000
971   EAL:   PCI memory mapped at 0x7f83bfa80000
972   PMD: eth_ixgbe_dev_init(): MAC: 2, PHY: 18, SFP+: 5
973   PMD: eth_ixgbe_dev_init(): port 0 vendorID=0x8086 deviceID=0x10fb
974   Port 0 is attached. Now total ports is 1
975   Done
976
977For example, to attach a port created by pcap PMD.
978
979.. code-block:: console
980
981   testpmd> port attach eth_pcap0
982   Attaching a new port...
983   PMD: Initializing pmd_pcap for eth_pcap0
984   PMD: Creating pcap-backed ethdev on numa socket 0
985   Port 0 is attached. Now total ports is 1
986   Done
987
988In this case, identifier is ``eth_pcap0``.
989This identifier format is the same as ``--vdev`` format of DPDK applications.
990
991For example, to re-attach a bonded port which has been previously detached,
992the mode and slave parameters must be given.
993
994.. code-block:: console
995
996   testpmd> port attach eth_bond_0,mode=0,slave=1
997   Attaching a new port...
998   EAL: Initializing pmd_bond for eth_bond_0
999   EAL: Create bonded device eth_bond_0 on port 0 in mode 0 on socket 0.
1000   Port 0 is attached. Now total ports is 1
1001   Done
1002
1003
1004port detach
1005~~~~~~~~~~~
1006
1007Detach a specific port.
1008
1009Before detaching a port, the port should be closed::
1010
1011   testpmd> port detach (port_id)
1012
1013For example, to detach a pci device port 0.
1014
1015.. code-block:: console
1016
1017   testpmd> port close 0
1018   Closing ports...
1019   Done
1020
1021   testpmd> port detach 0
1022   Detaching a port...
1023   EAL: PCI device 0000:0a:00.0 on NUMA socket -1
1024   EAL:   remove driver: 8086:10fb rte_ixgbe_pmd
1025   EAL:   PCI memory unmapped at 0x7f83bfa00000
1026   EAL:   PCI memory unmapped at 0x7f83bfa80000
1027   Done
1028
1029
1030For example, to detach a virtual device port 0.
1031
1032.. code-block:: console
1033
1034   testpmd> port close 0
1035   Closing ports...
1036   Done
1037
1038   testpmd> port detach 0
1039   Detaching a port...
1040   PMD: Closing pcap ethdev on numa socket 0
1041   Port 'eth_pcap0' is detached. Now total ports is 0
1042   Done
1043
1044To remove a pci device completely from the system, first detach the port from testpmd.
1045Then the device should be moved under kernel management.
1046Finally the device can be removed using kernel pci hotplug functionality.
1047
1048For example, to move a pci device under kernel management:
1049
1050.. code-block:: console
1051
1052   sudo ./tools/dpdk_nic_bind.py -b ixgbe 0000:0a:00.0
1053
1054   ./tools/dpdk_nic_bind.py --status
1055

1283~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1284
1285Create a new bonding device::
1286
1287   testpmd> create bonded device (mode) (socket)
1288
1289For example, to create a bonded device in mode 1 on socket 0::
1290
1291   testpmd> create bonded 1 0
1292   created new bonded device (port X)
1293
1294add bonding slave
1295~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1296
1297Adds Ethernet device to a Link Bonding device::
1298
1299   testpmd> add bonding slave (slave id) (port id)
1300
1301For example, to add Ethernet device (port 6) to a Link Bonding device (port 10)::
1302
1303   testpmd> add bonding slave 6 10
1304
1305
1306remove bonding slave
1307~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1308
1309Removes an Ethernet slave device from a Link Bonding device::
1310
1311   testpmd> remove bonding slave (slave id) (port id)
1312
1313For example, to remove Ethernet slave device (port 6) to a Link Bonding device (port 10)::
1314
1315   testpmd> remove bonding slave 6 10
1316
1317set bonding mode
1318~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1319
1320Set the Link Bonding mode of a Link Bonding device::
1321
1322   testpmd> set bonding mode (value) (port id)
1323
1324For example, to set the bonding mode of a Link Bonding device (port 10) to broadcast (mode 3)::
1325
1326   testpmd> set bonding mode 3 10
1327
1328set bonding primary
1329~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1330

1366
1367This adds support for PMD slave devices which do not support link status interrupts.
1368When the mon_period is set to a value greater than 0 then all PMD's which do not support
1369link status ISR will be queried every polling interval to check if their link status has changed::
1370
1371   testpmd> set bonding mon_period (port_id) (value)
1372
1373For example, to set the link status monitoring polling period of bonded device (port 5) to 150ms::

1649.. _testpmd_flow_director:
1650
1651flow_director_filter
1652~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1653
1654The Flow Director works in receive mode to identify specific flows or sets of flows and route them to specific queues.
1655
1656Four types of filtering are supported which are referred to as Perfect Match, Signature, Perfect-mac-vlan and
1657Perfect-tunnel filters, the match mode is set by the ``--pkt-filter-mode`` command-line parameter:
1658
1659* Perfect match filters.
1660  The hardware checks a match between the masked fields of the received packets and the programmed filters.
1661  The masked fields are for IP flow.
1662
1663* Signature filters.
1664  The hardware checks a match between a hash-based signature of the masked fields of the received packet.
1665
1666* Perfect-mac-vlan match filters.
1667  The hardware checks a match between the masked fields of the received packets and the programmed filters.
1668  The masked fields are for MAC VLAN flow.
1669
1670* Perfect-tunnel match filters.
1671  The hardware checks a match between the masked fields of the received packets and the programmed filters.
1672  The masked fields are for tunnel flow.
1673
1674The Flow Director filters can match the different fields for different type of packet: flow type, specific input set
1675per flow type and the flexible payload.
1676
1677The Flow Director can also mask out parts of all of these fields so that filters
1678are only applied to certain fields or parts of the fields.
1679
1680Different NICs may have different capabilities, command show port fdir (port_id) can be used to acquire the information.
