6Testpmd Runtime Functions
7=========================
8
9Where the testpmd application is started in interactive mode, (``-i|--interactive``),
10it displays a prompt that can be used to start and stop forwarding,
11configure the application, display statistics (including the extended NIC
12statistics aka xstats) , set the Flow Director and other tasks::
13
14   testpmd>
15
16The testpmd prompt has some, limited, readline support.
17Common bash command-line functions such as ``Ctrl+a`` and ``Ctrl+e`` to go to the start and end of the prompt line are supported
18as well as access to the command history via the up-arrow.
19
20There is also support for tab completion.
21If you type a partial command and hit ``<TAB>`` you get a list of the available completions:
22
23.. code-block:: console
24
25   testpmd> show port <TAB>
26
27       info [Mul-choice STRING]: show|clear port info|stats|xstats|fdir|stat_qmap|dcb_tc|cap X
28       info [Mul-choice STRING]: show|clear port info|stats|xstats|fdir|stat_qmap|dcb_tc|cap all
29       stats [Mul-choice STRING]: show|clear port info|stats|xstats|fdir|stat_qmap|dcb_tc|cap X
30       stats [Mul-choice STRING]: show|clear port info|stats|xstats|fdir|stat_qmap|dcb_tc|cap all
31       ...
32
33
34.. note::
35
36   Some examples in this document are too long to fit on one line are are shown wrapped at `"\\"` for display purposes::
37
38      testpmd> set flow_ctrl rx (on|off) tx (on|off) (high_water) (low_water) \
39               (pause_time) (send_xon) (port_id)
40
41In the real ``testpmd>`` prompt these commands should be on a single line.
42
43Help Functions
44--------------
45
46The testpmd has on-line help for the functions that are available at runtime.
47These are divided into sections and can be accessed using help, help section or help all:
48
49.. code-block:: console
50
51   testpmd> help
52
53       help control    : Start and stop forwarding.
54       help display    : Displaying port, stats and config information.
55       help config     : Configuration information.
56       help ports      : Configuring ports.
57       help registers  : Reading and setting port registers.
58       help filters    : Filters configuration help.
59       help all        : All of the above sections.

62Command File Functions
63----------------------
64
65To facilitate loading large number of commands or to avoid cutting and pasting where not
66practical or possible testpmd supports alternative methods for executing commands.
67
68* If started with the ``--cmdline-file=FILENAME`` command line argument testpmd
69  will execute all CLI commands contained within the file immediately before
70  starting packet forwarding or entering interactive mode.
71
72.. code-block:: console
73
74   ./testpmd -n4 -r2 ... -- -i --cmdline-file=/home/ubuntu/flow-create-commands.txt

109
110
111In all cases output from any included command will be displayed as standard output.
112Execution will continue until the end of the file is reached regardless of
113whether any errors occur.  The end user must examine the output to determine if
114any failures occurred.

253Display information for a given port's RX/TX queue::
254
255   testpmd> show (rxq|txq) info (port_id) (queue_id)
256
257show config
258~~~~~~~~~~~
259
260Displays the configuration of the application.
261The configuration comes from the command-line, the runtime or the application defaults::
262
263   testpmd> show config (rxtx|cores|fwd|txpkts)
264
265The available information categories are:
266
267* ``rxtx``: RX/TX configuration items.
268
269* ``cores``: List of forwarding cores.
270
271* ``fwd``: Packet forwarding configuration.
272
273* ``txpkts``: Packets to TX configuration.
274
275For example:
276
277.. code-block:: console
278
279   testpmd> show config rxtx
280
281   io packet forwarding - CRC stripping disabled - packets/burst=16
282   nb forwarding cores=2 - nb forwarding ports=1
283   RX queues=1 - RX desc=128 - RX free threshold=0
284   RX threshold registers: pthresh=8 hthresh=8 wthresh=4
285   TX queues=1 - TX desc=512 - TX free threshold=0
286   TX threshold registers: pthresh=36 hthresh=0 wthresh=0
287   TX RS bit threshold=0 - TXQ flags=0x0
288
289set fwd
290~~~~~~~
291
292Set the packet forwarding mode::
293
294   testpmd> set fwd (io|mac|macswap|flowgen| \
295                     rxonly|txonly|csum|icmpecho|noisy) (""|retry)
296
297``retry`` can be specified for forwarding engines except ``rx_only``.
298
299The available information categories are:
300
301* ``io``: Forwards packets "as-is" in I/O mode.
302  This is the fastest possible forwarding operation as it does not access packets data.
303  This is the default mode.
304
305* ``mac``: Changes the source and the destination Ethernet addresses of packets before forwarding them.
306  Default application behavior is to set source Ethernet address to that of the transmitting interface, and destination
307  address to a dummy value (set during init). The user may specify a target destination Ethernet address via the 'eth-peer' or
308  'eth-peers-configfile' command-line options. It is not currently possible to specify a specific source Ethernet address.
309
310* ``macswap``: MAC swap forwarding mode.
311  Swaps the source and the destination Ethernet addresses of packets before forwarding them.
312
313* ``flowgen``: Multi-flow generation mode.
314  Originates a number of flows (with varying destination IP addresses), and terminate receive traffic.
315
316* ``rxonly``: Receives packets but doesn't transmit them.
317
318* ``txonly``: Generates and transmits packets without receiving any.
319
320* ``csum``: Changes the checksum field with hardware or software methods depending on the offload flags on the packet.
321
322* ``icmpecho``: Receives a burst of packets, lookup for ICMP echo requests and, if any, send back ICMP echo replies.
323
324* ``ieee1588``: Demonstrate L2 IEEE1588 V2 PTP timestamping for RX and TX. Requires ``CONFIG_RTE_LIBRTE_IEEE1588=y``.
325
326* ``softnic``: Demonstrates the softnic forwarding operation. In this mode, packet forwarding is
327  similar to I/O mode except for the fact that packets are loopback to the softnic ports only. Therefore, portmask parameter should be set to softnic port only. The various software based custom NIC pipelines specified through the softnic firmware (DPDK packet framework script) can be tested in this mode. Furthermore, it allows to build 5-level hierarchical QoS scheduler as a default option that can be enabled through CLI once testpmd application is initialised. The user can modify the default scheduler hierarchy or can specify the new QoS Scheduler hierarchy through CLI. Requires ``CONFIG_RTE_LIBRTE_PMD_SOFTNIC=y``.
328
329* ``noisy``: Noisy neighbor simulation.
330  Simulate more realistic behavior of a guest machine engaged in receiving
331  and sending packets performing Virtual Network Function (VNF).
332
333Example::
334
335   testpmd> set fwd rxonly
336
337   Set rxonly packet forwarding mode
338
339
340show fwd
341~~~~~~~~
342
343When running, forwarding engines maintain statistics from the time they have been started.
344Example for the io forwarding engine, with some packet drops on the tx side::
345
346   testpmd> show fwd stats all
347
348     ------- Forward Stats for RX Port= 0/Queue= 0 -> TX Port= 1/Queue= 0 -------

543Configuration Functions
544-----------------------
545
546The testpmd application can be configured from the runtime as well as from the command-line.
547
548This section details the available configuration functions that are available.
549
550.. note::
551
552   Configuration changes only become active when forwarding is started/restarted.
553
554set default
555~~~~~~~~~~~
556
557Reset forwarding to the default configuration::
558
559   testpmd> set default
560
561set verbose
562~~~~~~~~~~~
563
564Set the debug verbosity level::
565
566   testpmd> set verbose (level)
567
568Available levels are as following:
569
570* ``0`` silent except for error.
571* ``1`` fully verbose except for Tx packets.
572* ``2`` fully verbose except for Rx packets.
573* ``> 2`` fully verbose.
574
575set log
576~~~~~~~
577
578Set the log level for a log type::
579
580	testpmd> set log global|(type) (level)
581
582Where:
583
584* ``type`` is the log name.
585
586* ``level`` is the log level.
587
588For example, to change the global log level::
589
590	testpmd> set log global (level)
591
592Regexes can also be used for type. To change log level of user1, user2 and user3::
593
594	testpmd> set log user[1-3] (level)
595
596set nbport
597~~~~~~~~~~
598
599Set the number of ports used by the application:
600
601set nbport (num)
602

1004Where:
1005
1006* ``ip|udp|tcp|sctp`` always relate to  the inner layer.
1007
1008* ``outer-ip`` relates to the outer IP layer (only for IPv4) in the case where the packet is recognized
1009  as a tunnel packet by the forwarding engine (vxlan, gre and ipip are
1010  supported). See also the ``csum parse-tunnel`` command.
1011
1012* ``outer-udp`` relates to the outer UDP layer in the case where the packet is recognized
1013  as a tunnel packet by the forwarding engine (vxlan, vxlan-gpe are
1014  supported). See also the ``csum parse-tunnel`` command.
1015
1016.. note::

1029
1030   testpmd> set port (port_id) queue-region region_id (value) flowtype (value)
1031
1032where:
1033

1042
1043   testpmd> set port (port_id) queue-region flush (on|off)
1044
1045where:
1046
1047* ``on``: is just an enable function which server for other configuration,
1048  it is for all configuration about queue region from up layer,
1049  at first will only keep in DPDK software stored in driver,
1050  only after "flush on", it commit all configuration to HW.
1051
1052* ``"off``: is just clean all configuration about queue region just now,
1053  and restore all to DPDK i40e driver default config when start up.
1054
1055Show all queue region related configuration info on a port::
1056
1057   testpmd> show port (port_id) queue-region
1058
1059.. note::
1060
1061  Queue region only support on PF by now, so these command is
1062  only for configuration of queue region on PF port.
1063
1064csum parse-tunnel
1065~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1066
1067Define how tunneled packets should be handled by the csum forward
1068engine::
1069
1070   testpmd> csum parse-tunnel (on|off) (tx_port_id)
1071
1072If enabled, the csum forward engine will try to recognize supported
1073tunnel headers (vxlan, gre, ipip).
1074
1075If disabled, treat tunnel packets as non-tunneled packets (a inner
1076header is handled as a packet payload).
1077
1078.. note::
1079
1080   The port argument is the TX port like in the ``csum set`` command.
1081
1082Example:
1083
1084Consider a packet in packet like the following::
1085
1086   eth_out/ipv4_out/udp_out/vxlan/eth_in/ipv4_in/tcp_in
1087
1088* If parse-tunnel is enabled, the ``ip|udp|tcp|sctp`` parameters of ``csum set``
1089  command relate to the inner headers (here ``ipv4_in`` and ``tcp_in``), and the
1090  ``outer-ip|outer-udp`` parameter relates to the outer headers (here ``ipv4_out`` and ``udp_out``).
1091
1092* If parse-tunnel is disabled, the ``ip|udp|tcp|sctp`` parameters of ``csum  set``
1093   command relate to the outer headers, here ``ipv4_out`` and ``udp_out``.
1094
1095csum show
1096~~~~~~~~~
1097
1098Display tx checksum offload configuration::
1099
1100   testpmd> csum show (port_id)
1101
1102tso set
1103~~~~~~~
1104
1105Enable TCP Segmentation Offload (TSO) in the ``csum`` forwarding engine::
1106
1107   testpmd> tso set (segsize) (port_id)
1108
1109.. note::
1110
1111   Check the NIC datasheet for hardware limits.
1112
1113tso show
1114~~~~~~~~
1115
1116Display the status of TCP Segmentation Offload::
1117
1118   testpmd> tso show (port_id)
1119
1120tunnel tso set
1121~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1122
1123Set tso segment size of tunneled packets for a port in csum engine::
1124
1125   testpmd> tunnel_tso set (tso_segsz) (port_id)
1126
1127tunnel tso show
1128~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1129
1130Display the status of tunneled TCP Segmentation Offload for a port::
1131
1132   testpmd> tunnel_tso show (port_id)
1133
1134set port - gro
1135~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1136
1137Enable or disable GRO in ``csum`` forwarding engine::
1138
1139   testpmd> set port <port_id> gro on|off
1140
1141If enabled, the csum forwarding engine will perform GRO on the TCP/IPv4
1142packets received from the given port.
1143
1144If disabled, packets received from the given port won't be performed
1145GRO. By default, GRO is disabled for all ports.
1146
1147.. note::
1148
1149   When enable GRO for a port, TCP/IPv4 packets received from the port
1150   will be performed GRO. After GRO, all merged packets have bad
1151   checksums, since the GRO library doesn't re-calculate checksums for
1152   the merged packets. Therefore, if users want the merged packets to
1153   have correct checksums, please select HW IP checksum calculation and
1154   HW TCP checksum calculation for the port which the merged packets are
1155   transmitted to.
1156
1157show port - gro
1158~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1159
1160Display GRO configuration for a given port::
1161
1162   testpmd> show port <port_id> gro
1163
1164set gro flush
1165~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1166
1167Set the cycle to flush the GROed packets from reassembly tables::
1168
1169   testpmd> set gro flush <cycles>
1170
1171When enable GRO, the csum forwarding engine performs GRO on received
1172packets, and the GROed packets are stored in reassembly tables. Users
1173can use this command to determine when the GROed packets are flushed
1174from the reassembly tables.
1175
1176The ``cycles`` is measured in GRO operation times. The csum forwarding
1177engine flushes the GROed packets from the tables every ``cycles`` GRO
1178operations.
1179
1180By default, the value of ``cycles`` is 1, which means flush GROed packets
1181from the reassembly tables as soon as one GRO operation finishes. The value
1182of ``cycles`` should be in the range of 1 to ``GRO_MAX_FLUSH_CYCLES``.
1183
1184Please note that the large value of ``cycles`` may cause the poor TCP/IP
1185stack performance. Because the GROed packets are delayed to arrive the
1186stack, thus causing more duplicated ACKs and TCP retransmissions.
1187
1188set port - gso
1189~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1190
1191Toggle per-port GSO support in ``csum`` forwarding engine::
1192
1193   testpmd> set port <port_id> gso on|off
1194
1195If enabled, the csum forwarding engine will perform GSO on supported IPv4
1196packets, transmitted on the given port.
1197
1198If disabled, packets transmitted on the given port will not undergo GSO.
1199By default, GSO is disabled for all ports.
1200
1201.. note::
1202
1203   When GSO is enabled on a port, supported IPv4 packets transmitted on that
1204   port undergo GSO. Afterwards, the segmented packets are represented by
1205   multi-segment mbufs; however, the csum forwarding engine doesn't calculation
1206   of checksums for GSO'd segments in SW. As a result, if users want correct
1207   checksums in GSO segments, they should enable HW checksum calculation for
1208   GSO-enabled ports.
1209
1210   For example, HW checksum calculation for VxLAN GSO'd packets may be enabled
1211   by setting the following options in the csum forwarding engine:
1212
1213   testpmd> csum set outer_ip hw <port_id>
1214
1215   testpmd> csum set ip hw <port_id>
1216
1217   testpmd> csum set tcp hw <port_id>
1218
1219   UDP GSO is the same as IP fragmentation, which treats the UDP header
1220   as the payload and does not modify it during segmentation. That is,
1221   after UDP GSO, only the first output fragment has the original UDP
1222   header. Therefore, users need to enable HW IP checksum calculation
1223   and SW UDP checksum calculation for GSO-enabled ports, if they want
1224   correct checksums for UDP/IPv4 packets.

1865Port Functions
1866--------------
1867
1868The following sections show functions for configuring ports.
1869
1870.. note::
1871
1872   Port configuration changes only become active when forwarding is started/restarted.
1873
1874port attach
1875~~~~~~~~~~~
1876
1877Attach a port specified by pci address or virtual device args::
1878
1879   testpmd> port attach (identifier)
1880
1881To attach a new pci device, the device should be recognized by kernel first.
1882Then it should be moved under DPDK management.
1883Finally the port can be attached to testpmd.
1884
1885For example, to move a pci device using ixgbe under DPDK management:
1886
1887.. code-block:: console
1888
1889   # Check the status of the available devices.
1890   ./usertools/dpdk-devbind.py --status
1891
1892   Network devices using DPDK-compatible driver
1893   ============================================
1894   <none>
1895
1896   Network devices using kernel driver
1897   ===================================
1898   0000:0a:00.0 '82599ES 10-Gigabit' if=eth2 drv=ixgbe unused=
1899
1900
1901   # Bind the device to igb_uio.
1902   sudo ./usertools/dpdk-devbind.py -b igb_uio 0000:0a:00.0
1903
1904
1905   # Recheck the status of the devices.
1906   ./usertools/dpdk-devbind.py --status
1907   Network devices using DPDK-compatible driver
1908   ============================================
1909   0000:0a:00.0 '82599ES 10-Gigabit' drv=igb_uio unused=
1910
1911To attach a port created by virtual device, above steps are not needed.
1912
1913For example, to attach a port whose pci address is 0000:0a:00.0.
1914
1915.. code-block:: console
1916
1917   testpmd> port attach 0000:0a:00.0
1918   Attaching a new port...
1919   EAL: PCI device 0000:0a:00.0 on NUMA socket -1
1920   EAL:   probe driver: 8086:10fb rte_ixgbe_pmd
1921   EAL:   PCI memory mapped at 0x7f83bfa00000
1922   EAL:   PCI memory mapped at 0x7f83bfa80000
1923   PMD: eth_ixgbe_dev_init(): MAC: 2, PHY: 18, SFP+: 5
1924   PMD: eth_ixgbe_dev_init(): port 0 vendorID=0x8086 deviceID=0x10fb
1925   Port 0 is attached. Now total ports is 1
1926   Done
1927
1928For example, to attach a port created by pcap PMD.
1929
1930.. code-block:: console
1931
1932   testpmd> port attach net_pcap0
1933   Attaching a new port...
1934   PMD: Initializing pmd_pcap for net_pcap0
1935   PMD: Creating pcap-backed ethdev on numa socket 0
1936   Port 0 is attached. Now total ports is 1
1937   Done
1938
1939In this case, identifier is ``net_pcap0``.
1940This identifier format is the same as ``--vdev`` format of DPDK applications.
1941
1942For example, to re-attach a bonded port which has been previously detached,
1943the mode and slave parameters must be given.
1944
1945.. code-block:: console
1946
1947   testpmd> port attach net_bond_0,mode=0,slave=1
1948   Attaching a new port...
1949   EAL: Initializing pmd_bond for net_bond_0
1950   EAL: Create bonded device net_bond_0 on port 0 in mode 0 on socket 0.
1951   Port 0 is attached. Now total ports is 1
1952   Done
1953
1954
1955port detach
1956~~~~~~~~~~~
1957
1958Detach a specific port::
1959
1960   testpmd> port detach (port_id)
1961
1962Before detaching a port, the port should be stopped and closed.
1963
1964For example, to detach a pci device port 0.
1965
1966.. code-block:: console
1967
1968   testpmd> port stop 0
1969   Stopping ports...
1970   Done
1971   testpmd> port close 0
1972   Closing ports...
1973   Done
1974
1975   testpmd> port detach 0
1976   Detaching a port...
1977   EAL: PCI device 0000:0a:00.0 on NUMA socket -1
1978   EAL:   remove driver: 8086:10fb rte_ixgbe_pmd
1979   EAL:   PCI memory unmapped at 0x7f83bfa00000
1980   EAL:   PCI memory unmapped at 0x7f83bfa80000
1981   Done
1982
1983
1984For example, to detach a virtual device port 0.
1985
1986.. code-block:: console
1987
1988   testpmd> port stop 0
1989   Stopping ports...
1990   Done
1991   testpmd> port close 0
1992   Closing ports...
1993   Done
1994
1995   testpmd> port detach 0
1996   Detaching a port...
1997   PMD: Closing pcap ethdev on numa socket 0
1998   Port 'net_pcap0' is detached. Now total ports is 0
1999   Done
2000
2001To remove a pci device completely from the system, first detach the port from testpmd.
2002Then the device should be moved under kernel management.
2003Finally the device can be removed using kernel pci hotplug functionality.
2004
2005For example, to move a pci device under kernel management:
2006
2007.. code-block:: console
2008
2009   sudo ./usertools/dpdk-devbind.py -b ixgbe 0000:0a:00.0
2010
2011   ./usertools/dpdk-devbind.py --status
2012
2013   Network devices using DPDK-compatible driver

2276device detach
2277~~~~~~~~~~~~~
2278
2279Detach a device specified by pci address or virtual device args::
2280
2281   testpmd> device detach (identifier)
2282
2283Before detaching a device associated with ports, the ports should be stopped and closed.
2284
2285For example, to detach a pci device whose address is 0002:03:00.0.
2286
2287.. code-block:: console
2288
2289    testpmd> device detach 0002:03:00.0
2290    Removing a device...
2291    Port 1 is now closed
2292    EAL: Releasing pci mapped resource for 0002:03:00.0
2293    EAL: Calling pci_unmap_resource for 0002:03:00.0 at 0x218a050000
2294    EAL: Calling pci_unmap_resource for 0002:03:00.0 at 0x218c050000
2295    Device 0002:03:00.0 is detached
2296    Now total ports is 1
2297
2298For example, to detach a port created by pcap PMD.
2299
2300.. code-block:: console
2301
2302    testpmd> device detach net_pcap0
2303    Removing a device...
2304    Port 0 is now closed
2305    Device net_pcap0 is detached
2306    Now total ports is 0
2307    Done
2308
2309In this case, identifier is ``net_pcap0``.
2310This identifier format is the same as ``--vdev`` format of DPDK applications.

2335   testpmd> add bonding slave (slave id) (port id)
2336
2337For example, to add Ethernet device (port 6) to a Link Bonding device (port 10)::
2338
2339   testpmd> add bonding slave 6 10
2340
2341
2342remove bonding slave
2343~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
2344
2345Removes an Ethernet slave device from a Link Bonding device::

3203.. _testpmd_flow_director:
3204
3205flow_director_filter
3206~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
3207
3208The Flow Director works in receive mode to identify specific flows or sets of flows and route them to specific queues.
3209
3210Four types of filtering are supported which are referred to as Perfect Match, Signature, Perfect-mac-vlan and
3211Perfect-tunnel filters, the match mode is set by the ``--pkt-filter-mode`` command-line parameter:
3212
3213* Perfect match filters.
3214  The hardware checks a match between the masked fields of the received packets and the programmed filters.
3215  The masked fields are for IP flow.
3216
3217* Signature filters.
3218  The hardware checks a match between a hash-based signature of the masked fields of the received packet.
3219
3220* Perfect-mac-vlan match filters.
3221  The hardware checks a match between the masked fields of the received packets and the programmed filters.
3222  The masked fields are for MAC VLAN flow.
3223
3224* Perfect-tunnel match filters.
3225  The hardware checks a match between the masked fields of the received packets and the programmed filters.
3226  The masked fields are for tunnel flow.
3227
3228* Perfect-raw-flow-type match filters.
3229  The hardware checks a match between the masked fields of the received packets and pre-loaded raw (template) packet.
3230  The masked fields are specified by input sets.
3231
3232The Flow Director filters can match the different fields for different type of packet: flow type, specific input set
3233per flow type and the flexible payload.
3234
3235The Flow Director can also mask out parts of all of these fields so that filters
3236are only applied to certain fields or parts of the fields.
3237
3238Note that for raw flow type mode the source and destination fields in the
3239raw packet buffer need to be presented in a reversed order with respect
3240to the expected received packets.
3241For example: IP source and destination addresses or TCP/UDP/SCTP
3242source and destination ports
3243
3244Different NICs may have different capabilities, command show port fdir (port_id) can be used to acquire the information.

3463.. _testpmd_rte_flow:
3464
3465Flow rules management
3466---------------------
3467
3468Control of the generic flow API (*rte_flow*) is fully exposed through the
3469``flow`` command (validation, creation, destruction, queries and operation
3470modes).
3471
3472Considering *rte_flow* overlaps with all `Filter Functions`_, using both
3473features simultaneously may cause undefined side-effects and is therefore
3474not recommended.
3475
3476``flow`` syntax
3477~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
3478
3479Because the ``flow`` command uses dynamic tokens to handle the large number
3480of possible flow rules combinations, its behavior differs slightly from
3481other commands, in particular:
3482
3483- Pressing *?* or the *<tab>* key displays contextual help for the current
3484  token, not that of the entire command.
3485
3486- Optional and repeated parameters are supported (provided they are listed
3487  in the contextual help).
3488
3489The first parameter stands for the operation mode. Possible operations and
3490their general syntax are described below. They are covered in detail in the
3491following sections.
3492
3493- Check whether a flow rule can be created::
3494
3495   flow validate {port_id}
3496       [group {group_id}] [priority {level}] [ingress] [egress] [transfer]
3497       pattern {item} [/ {item} [...]] / end
3498       actions {action} [/ {action} [...]] / end
3499
3500- Create a flow rule::
3501
3502   flow create {port_id}
3503       [group {group_id}] [priority {level}] [ingress] [egress] [transfer]
3504       pattern {item} [/ {item} [...]] / end
3505       actions {action} [/ {action} [...]] / end
3506
3507- Destroy specific flow rules::
3508
3509   flow destroy {port_id} rule {rule_id} [...]
3510
3511- Destroy all flow rules::
3512
3513   flow flush {port_id}
3514
3515- Query an existing flow rule::
3516
3517   flow query {port_id} {rule_id} {action}
3518
3519- List existing flow rules sorted by priority, filtered by group
3520  identifiers::
3521
3522   flow list {port_id} [group {group_id}] [...]
3523
3524- Restrict ingress traffic to the defined flow rules::
3525
3526   flow isolate {port_id} {boolean}
3527
3528Validating flow rules
3529~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
3530
3531``flow validate`` reports whether a flow rule would be accepted by the
3532underlying device in its current state but stops short of creating it. It is
3533bound to ``rte_flow_validate()``::
3534
3535   flow validate {port_id}
3536      [group {group_id}] [priority {level}] [ingress] [egress] [transfer]
3537      pattern {item} [/ {item} [...]] / end
3538      actions {action} [/ {action} [...]] / end
3539
3540If successful, it will show::
3541
3542   Flow rule validated
3543
3544Otherwise it will show an error message of the form::
3545
3546   Caught error type [...] ([...]): [...]
3547
3548This command uses the same parameters as ``flow create``, their format is
3549described in `Creating flow rules`_.
3550
3551Check whether redirecting any Ethernet packet received on port 0 to RX queue
3552index 6 is supported::
3553
3554   testpmd> flow validate 0 ingress pattern eth / end
3555      actions queue index 6 / end
3556   Flow rule validated
3557   testpmd>
3558
3559Port 0 does not support TCPv6 rules::
3560
3561   testpmd> flow validate 0 ingress pattern eth / ipv6 / tcp / end
3562      actions drop / end
3563   Caught error type 9 (specific pattern item): Invalid argument
3564   testpmd>
3565
3566Creating flow rules
3567~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
3568
3569``flow create`` validates and creates the specified flow rule. It is bound
3570to ``rte_flow_create()``::
3571
3572   flow create {port_id}
3573      [group {group_id}] [priority {level}] [ingress] [egress] [transfer]
3574      pattern {item} [/ {item} [...]] / end
3575      actions {action} [/ {action} [...]] / end
3576
3577If successful, it will return a flow rule ID usable with other commands::
3578
3579   Flow rule #[...] created
3580
3581Otherwise it will show an error message of the form::
3582
3583   Caught error type [...] ([...]): [...]
3584
3585Parameters describe in the following order:
3586
3587- Attributes (*group*, *priority*, *ingress*, *egress*, *transfer* tokens).
3588- A matching pattern, starting with the *pattern* token and terminated by an
3589  *end* pattern item.
3590- Actions, starting with the *actions* token and terminated by an *end*
3591  action.
3592
3593These translate directly to *rte_flow* objects provided as-is to the
3594underlying functions.
3595
3596The shortest valid definition only comprises mandatory tokens::
3597
3598   testpmd> flow create 0 pattern end actions end
3599
3600Note that PMDs may refuse rules that essentially do nothing such as this
3601one.
3602
3603**All unspecified object values are automatically initialized to 0.**
3604
3605Attributes
3606^^^^^^^^^^
3607
3608These tokens affect flow rule attributes (``struct rte_flow_attr``) and are
3609specified before the ``pattern`` token.
3610
3611- ``group {group id}``: priority group.
3612- ``priority {level}``: priority level within group.
3613- ``ingress``: rule applies to ingress traffic.
3614- ``egress``: rule applies to egress traffic.
3615- ``transfer``: apply rule directly to endpoints found in pattern.
3616
3617Each instance of an attribute specified several times overrides the previous
3618value as shown below (group 4 is used)::
3619
3620   testpmd> flow create 0 group 42 group 24 group 4 [...]
3621
3622Note that once enabled, ``ingress`` and ``egress`` cannot be disabled.
3623
3624While not specifying a direction is an error, some rules may allow both
3625simultaneously.
3626
3627Most rules affect RX therefore contain the ``ingress`` token::
3628
3629   testpmd> flow create 0 ingress pattern [...]
3630
3631Matching pattern
3632^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
3633
3634A matching pattern starts after the ``pattern`` token. It is made of pattern
3635items and is terminated by a mandatory ``end`` item.
3636
3637Items are named after their type (*RTE_FLOW_ITEM_TYPE_* from ``enum
3638rte_flow_item_type``).
3639
3640The ``/`` token is used as a separator between pattern items as shown
3641below::
3642
3643   testpmd> flow create 0 ingress pattern eth / ipv4 / udp / end [...]
3644
3645Note that protocol items like these must be stacked from lowest to highest
3646layer to make sense. For instance, the following rule is either invalid or
3647unlikely to match any packet::
3648
3649   testpmd> flow create 0 ingress pattern eth / udp / ipv4 / end [...]
3650
3651More information on these restrictions can be found in the *rte_flow*
3652documentation.
3653
3654Several items support additional specification structures, for example
3655``ipv4`` allows specifying source and destination addresses as follows::
3656
3657   testpmd> flow create 0 ingress pattern eth / ipv4 src is 10.1.1.1
3658      dst is 10.2.0.0 / end [...]
3659
3660This rule matches all IPv4 traffic with the specified properties.
3661
3662In this example, ``src`` and ``dst`` are field names of the underlying
3663``struct rte_flow_item_ipv4`` object. All item properties can be specified
3664in a similar fashion.
3665
3666The ``is`` token means that the subsequent value must be matched exactly,
3667and assigns ``spec`` and ``mask`` fields in ``struct rte_flow_item``
3668accordingly. Possible assignment tokens are:
3669
3670- ``is``: match value perfectly (with full bit-mask).
3671- ``spec``: match value according to configured bit-mask.
3672- ``last``: specify upper bound to establish a range.
3673- ``mask``: specify bit-mask with relevant bits set to one.

3676These yield identical results::
3677
3678   ipv4 src is 10.1.1.1
3679
3680::
3681
3682   ipv4 src spec 10.1.1.1 src mask 255.255.255.255

3691
3692::
3693
3694   ipv4 src is 10.1.1.1 src last 0 # 0 disables range
3695
3696Inclusive ranges can be defined with ``last``::
3697
3698   ipv4 src is 10.1.1.1 src last 10.2.3.4 # 10.1.1.1 to 10.2.3.4
3699
3700Note that ``mask`` affects both ``spec`` and ``last``::
3701
3702   ipv4 src is 10.1.1.1 src last 10.2.3.4 src mask 255.255.0.0
3703      # matches 10.1.0.0 to 10.2.255.255
3704
3705Properties can be modified multiple times::
3706
3707   ipv4 src is 10.1.1.1 src is 10.1.2.3 src is 10.2.3.4 # matches 10.2.3.4
3708
3709::
3710
3711   ipv4 src is 10.1.1.1 src prefix 24 src prefix 16 # matches 10.1.0.0/16

3903Actions list
3904^^^^^^^^^^^^
3905
3906A list of actions starts after the ``actions`` token in the same fashion as
3907`Matching pattern`_; actions are separated by ``/`` tokens and the list is
3908terminated by a mandatory ``end`` action.
3909
3910Actions are named after their type (*RTE_FLOW_ACTION_TYPE_* from ``enum
3911rte_flow_action_type``).
3912
3913Dropping all incoming UDPv4 packets can be expressed as follows::
3914
3915   testpmd> flow create 0 ingress pattern eth / ipv4 / udp / end
3916      actions drop / end
3917
3918Several actions have configurable properties which must be specified when
3919there is no valid default value. For example, ``queue`` requires a target
3920queue index.
3921
3922This rule redirects incoming UDPv4 traffic to queue index 6::
3923
3924   testpmd> flow create 0 ingress pattern eth / ipv4 / udp / end
3925      actions queue index 6 / end
3926
3927While this one could be rejected by PMDs (unspecified queue index)::
3928
3929   testpmd> flow create 0 ingress pattern eth / ipv4 / udp / end
3930      actions queue / end
3931
3932As defined by *rte_flow*, the list is not ordered, all actions of a given
3933rule are performed simultaneously. These are equivalent::
3934
3935   queue index 6 / void / mark id 42 / end
3936
3937::
3938
3939   void / mark id 42 / queue index 6 / end
3940
3941All actions in a list should have different types, otherwise only the last
3942action of a given type is taken into account::
3943
3944   queue index 4 / queue index 5 / queue index 6 / end # will use queue 6
3945
3946::
3947
3948   drop / drop / drop / end # drop is performed only once
3949
3950::
3951
3952   mark id 42 / queue index 3 / mark id 24 / end # mark will be 24
3953
3954Considering they are performed simultaneously, opposite and overlapping
3955actions can sometimes be combined when the end result is unambiguous::
3956
3957   drop / queue index 6 / end # drop has no effect
3958
3959::
3960
3961   queue index 6 / rss queues 6 7 8 / end # queue has no effect
3962
3963::
3964
3965   drop / passthru / end # drop has no effect
3966
3967Note that PMDs may still refuse such combinations.

4162Destroying flow rules
4163~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
4164
4165``flow destroy`` destroys one or more rules from their rule ID (as returned
4166by ``flow create``), this command calls ``rte_flow_destroy()`` as many
4167times as necessary::
4168
4169   flow destroy {port_id} rule {rule_id} [...]
4170
4171If successful, it will show::
4172
4173   Flow rule #[...] destroyed
4174
4175It does not report anything for rule IDs that do not exist. The usual error
4176message is shown when a rule cannot be destroyed::
4177
4178   Caught error type [...] ([...]): [...]
4179
4180``flow flush`` destroys all rules on a device and does not take extra
4181arguments. It is bound to ``rte_flow_flush()``::
4182
4183   flow flush {port_id}
4184
4185Any errors are reported as above.
4186
4187Creating several rules and destroying them::
4188
4189   testpmd> flow create 0 ingress pattern eth / ipv6 / end
4190      actions queue index 2 / end
4191   Flow rule #0 created
4192   testpmd> flow create 0 ingress pattern eth / ipv4 / end
4193      actions queue index 3 / end
4194   Flow rule #1 created
4195   testpmd> flow destroy 0 rule 0 rule 1
4196   Flow rule #1 destroyed
4197   Flow rule #0 destroyed
4198   testpmd>
4199
4200The same result can be achieved using ``flow flush``::
4201
4202   testpmd> flow create 0 ingress pattern eth / ipv6 / end
4203      actions queue index 2 / end
4204   Flow rule #0 created
4205   testpmd> flow create 0 ingress pattern eth / ipv4 / end
4206      actions queue index 3 / end
4207   Flow rule #1 created
4208   testpmd> flow flush 0
4209   testpmd>
4210
4211Non-existent rule IDs are ignored::
4212
4213   testpmd> flow create 0 ingress pattern eth / ipv6 / end
4214      actions queue index 2 / end
4215   Flow rule #0 created
4216   testpmd> flow create 0 ingress pattern eth / ipv4 / end
4217      actions queue index 3 / end

4221   testpmd> flow destroy 0 rule 0
4222   Flow rule #0 destroyed
4223   testpmd>

4225Querying flow rules
4226~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
4227
4228``flow query`` queries a specific action of a flow rule having that
4229ability. Such actions collect information that can be reported using this
4230command. It is bound to ``rte_flow_query()``::
4231
4232   flow query {port_id} {rule_id} {action}
4233
4234If successful, it will display either the retrieved data for known actions
4235or the following message::
4236
4237   Cannot display result for action type [...] ([...])
4238
4239Otherwise, it will complain either that the rule does not exist or that some
4240error occurred::
4241
4242   Flow rule #[...] not found
4243
4244::
4245
4246   Caught error type [...] ([...]): [...]
4247
4248Currently only the ``count`` action is supported. This action reports the
4249number of packets that hit the flow rule and the total number of bytes. Its
4250output has the following format::
4251
4252   count:
4253    hits_set: [...] # whether "hits" contains a valid value
4254    bytes_set: [...] # whether "bytes" contains a valid value
4255    hits: [...] # number of packets
4256    bytes: [...] # number of bytes
4257
4258Querying counters for TCPv6 packets redirected to queue 6::
4259
4260   testpmd> flow create 0 ingress pattern eth / ipv6 / tcp / end
4261      actions queue index 6 / count / end
4262   Flow rule #4 created
4263   testpmd> flow query 0 4 count
4264   count:
4265    hits_set: 1
4266    bytes_set: 0
4267    hits: 386446
4268    bytes: 0
4269   testpmd>
4270
4271Listing flow rules
4272~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
4273
4274``flow list`` lists existing flow rules sorted by priority and optionally
4275filtered by group identifiers::
4276
4277   flow list {port_id} [group {group_id}] [...]
4278
4279This command only fails with the following message if the device does not
4280exist::
4281
4282   Invalid port [...]
4283
4284Output consists of a header line followed by a short description of each
4285flow rule, one per line. There is no output at all when no flow rules are
4286configured on the device::
4287
4288   ID      Group   Prio    Attr    Rule
4289   [...]   [...]   [...]   [...]   [...]
4290
4291``Attr`` column flags:
4292
4293- ``i`` for ``ingress``.
4294- ``e`` for ``egress``.
4295
4296Creating several flow rules and listing them::
4297
4298   testpmd> flow create 0 ingress pattern eth / ipv4 / end
4299      actions queue index 6 / end
4300   Flow rule #0 created
4301   testpmd> flow create 0 ingress pattern eth / ipv6 / end
4302      actions queue index 2 / end
4303   Flow rule #1 created
4304   testpmd> flow create 0 priority 5 ingress pattern eth / ipv4 / udp / end
4305      actions rss queues 6 7 8 end / end
4306   Flow rule #2 created
4307   testpmd> flow list 0
4308   ID      Group   Prio    Attr    Rule
4309   0       0       0       i-      ETH IPV4 => QUEUE
4310   1       0       0       i-      ETH IPV6 => QUEUE
4311   2       0       5       i-      ETH IPV4 UDP => RSS
4312   testpmd>
4313
4314Rules are sorted by priority (i.e. group ID first, then priority level)::
4315
4316   testpmd> flow list 1
4317   ID      Group   Prio    Attr    Rule
4318   0       0       0       i-      ETH => COUNT
4319   6       0       500     i-      ETH IPV6 TCP => DROP COUNT
4320   5       0       1000    i-      ETH IPV6 ICMP => QUEUE
4321   1       24      0       i-      ETH IPV4 UDP => QUEUE
4322   4       24      10      i-      ETH IPV4 TCP => DROP
4323   3       24      20      i-      ETH IPV4 => DROP
4324   2       24      42      i-      ETH IPV4 UDP => QUEUE
4325   7       63      0       i-      ETH IPV6 UDP VXLAN => MARK QUEUE
4326   testpmd>
4327
4328Output can be limited to specific groups::
4329
4330   testpmd> flow list 1 group 0 group 63
4331   ID      Group   Prio    Attr    Rule
4332   0       0       0       i-      ETH => COUNT
4333   6       0       500     i-      ETH IPV6 TCP => DROP COUNT
4334   5       0       1000    i-      ETH IPV6 ICMP => QUEUE
4335   7       63      0       i-      ETH IPV6 UDP VXLAN => MARK QUEUE
4336   testpmd>
4337
4338Toggling isolated mode
4339~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
4340
4341``flow isolate`` can be used to tell the underlying PMD that ingress traffic
4342must only be injected from the defined flow rules; that no default traffic
4343is expected outside those rules and the driver is free to assign more
4344resources to handle them. It is bound to ``rte_flow_isolate()``::
4345
4346 flow isolate {port_id} {boolean}
4347
4348If successful, enabling or disabling isolated mode shows either::
4349
4350 Ingress traffic on port [...]
4351    is now restricted to the defined flow rules
4352
4353Or::
4354
4355 Ingress traffic on port [...]
4356    is not restricted anymore to the defined flow rules
4357
4358Otherwise, in case of error::
4359
4360   Caught error type [...] ([...]): [...]
4361
4362Mainly due to its side effects, PMDs supporting this mode may not have the
4363ability to toggle it more than once without reinitializing affected ports
4364first (e.g. by exiting testpmd).
4365
4366Enabling isolated mode::
4367
4368 testpmd> flow isolate 0 true
4369 Ingress traffic on port 0 is now restricted to the defined flow rules
4370 testpmd>
4371
4372Disabling isolated mode::
4373
4374 testpmd> flow isolate 0 false
4375 Ingress traffic on port 0 is not restricted anymore to the defined flow rules
4376 testpmd>
4377
4378Sample QinQ flow rules
4379~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
4380
4381Before creating QinQ rule(s) the following commands should be issued to enable QinQ::
4382
4383   testpmd> port stop 0
4384   testpmd> vlan set qinq on 0
4385
4386The above command sets the inner and outer TPID's to 0x8100.
4387
4388To change the TPID's the following commands should be used::
4389
4390   testpmd> vlan set outer tpid 0xa100 0
4391   testpmd> vlan set inner tpid 0x9100 0
4392   testpmd> port start 0
4393
4394Validate and create a QinQ rule on port 0 to steer traffic to a VF queue in a VM.
4395
4396::
4397
4398   testpmd> flow validate 0 ingress pattern eth / vlan tci is 123 /
4399       vlan tci is 456 / end actions vf id 1 / queue index 0 / end
4400   Flow rule #0 validated
4401
4402   testpmd> flow create 0 ingress pattern eth / vlan tci is 4 /
4403       vlan tci is 456 / end actions vf id 123 / queue index 0 / end
4404   Flow rule #0 created
4405
4406   testpmd> flow list 0

4408   0       0       0       i-      ETH VLAN VLAN=>VF QUEUE
4409
4410Validate and create a QinQ rule on port 0 to steer traffic to a queue on the host.
4411
4412::
4413
4414   testpmd> flow validate 0 ingress pattern eth / vlan tci is 321 /
4415        vlan tci is 654 / end actions pf / queue index 0 / end
4416   Flow rule #1 validated
4417
4418   testpmd> flow create 0 ingress pattern eth / vlan tci is 321 /
4419        vlan tci is 654 / end actions pf / queue index 1 / end
4420   Flow rule #1 created
4421
4422   testpmd> flow list 0

4646Sample MPLSoUDP decapsulation rule
4647~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
4648
4649MPLSoUDP decapsulation outer layer has default value pre-configured in testpmd
4650source code, those can be changed by using the following commands
4651
4652IPv4 MPLSoUDP outer header::
4653
4654 testpmd> set mplsoudp_decap ip-version ipv4
4655 testpmd> flow create 0 ingress pattern eth / ipv4 / udp / mpls / end actions

4700BPF Functions
4701--------------
4702
4703The following sections show functions to load/unload eBPF based filters.
4704
4705bpf-load
4706~~~~~~~~
4707
4708Load an eBPF program as a callback for particular RX/TX queue::
4709
4710   testpmd> bpf-load rx|tx (portid) (queueid) (load-flags) (bpf-prog-filename)
4711
4712The available load-flags are:
4713
4714* ``J``: use JIT generated native code, otherwise BPF interpreter will be used.
4715
4716* ``M``: assume input parameter is a pointer to rte_mbuf, otherwise assume it is a pointer to first segment's data.
4717
4718* ``-``: none.
4719
4720.. note::
4721
4722   You'll need clang v3.7 or above to build bpf program you'd like to load
4723
4724For example:
4725
4726.. code-block:: console
4727
4728   cd examples/bpf
4729   clang -O2 -target bpf -c t1.c
4730
4731Then to load (and JIT compile) t1.o at RX queue 0, port 1:
4732
4733.. code-block:: console
4734
4735   testpmd> bpf-load rx 1 0 J ./dpdk.org/examples/bpf/t1.o
4736
4737To load (not JITed) t1.o at TX queue 0, port 0:
4738
4739.. code-block:: console
4740
4741   testpmd> bpf-load tx 0 0 - ./dpdk.org/examples/bpf/t1.o
4742
4743bpf-unload
4744~~~~~~~~~~
4745
4746Unload previously loaded eBPF program for particular RX/TX queue::
4747
4748   testpmd> bpf-unload rx|tx (portid) (queueid)
4749
4750For example to unload BPF filter from TX queue 0, port 0:
4751
4752.. code-block:: console
4753
4754   testpmd> bpf-unload tx 0 0
4755
