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``.
653

941--------------
942
943The following sections show functions for configuring ports.
944
945.. note::
946
947   Port configuration changes only become active when forwarding is started/restarted.
948
949port attach
950~~~~~~~~~~~
951
952Attach a port specified by pci address or virtual device args.
953
954To attach a new pci device, the device should be recognized by kernel first.
955Then it should be moved under DPDK management.
956Finally the port can be attached to testpmd.
957
958For example, to move a pci device using ixgbe under DPDK management:
959
960.. code-block:: console
961
962   # Check the status of the available devices.
963   ./tools/dpdk_nic_bind.py --status
964
965   Network devices using DPDK-compatible driver
966   ============================================
967   <none>
968
969   Network devices using kernel driver
970   ===================================
971   0000:0a:00.0 '82599ES 10-Gigabit' if=eth2 drv=ixgbe unused=
972
973
974   # Bind the device to igb_uio.
975   sudo ./tools/dpdk_nic_bind.py -b igb_uio 0000:0a:00.0
976
977
978   # Recheck the status of the devices.
979   ./tools/dpdk_nic_bind.py --status
980   Network devices using DPDK-compatible driver
981   ============================================
982   0000:0a:00.0 '82599ES 10-Gigabit' drv=igb_uio unused=
983
984To attach a port created by virtual device, above steps are not needed.
985
986port attach (identifier)
987
988For example, to attach a port whose pci address is 0000:0a:00.0.
989
990.. code-block:: console
991
992   testpmd> port attach 0000:0a:00.0
993   Attaching a new port...
994   EAL: PCI device 0000:0a:00.0 on NUMA socket -1
995   EAL:   probe driver: 8086:10fb rte_ixgbe_pmd
996   EAL:   PCI memory mapped at 0x7f83bfa00000
997   EAL:   PCI memory mapped at 0x7f83bfa80000
998   PMD: eth_ixgbe_dev_init(): MAC: 2, PHY: 18, SFP+: 5
999   PMD: eth_ixgbe_dev_init(): port 0 vendorID=0x8086 deviceID=0x10fb
1000   Port 0 is attached. Now total ports is 1
1001   Done
1002
1003For example, to attach a port created by pcap PMD.
1004
1005.. code-block:: console
1006
1007   testpmd> port attach eth_pcap0
1008   Attaching a new port...
1009   PMD: Initializing pmd_pcap for eth_pcap0
1010   PMD: Creating pcap-backed ethdev on numa socket 0
1011   Port 0 is attached. Now total ports is 1
1012   Done
1013
1014In this case, identifier is ``eth_pcap0``.
1015This identifier format is the same as ``--vdev`` format of DPDK applications.
1016
1017For example, to re-attach a bonded port which has been previously detached,
1018the mode and slave parameters must be given.
1019
1020.. code-block:: console
1021
1022   testpmd> port attach eth_bond_0,mode=0,slave=1
1023   Attaching a new port...
1024   EAL: Initializing pmd_bond for eth_bond_0
1025   EAL: Create bonded device eth_bond_0 on port 0 in mode 0 on socket 0.
1026   Port 0 is attached. Now total ports is 1
1027   Done
1028
1029
1030port detach
1031~~~~~~~~~~~
1032
1033Detach a specific port.
1034
1035Before detaching a port, the port should be closed::
1036
1037   testpmd> port detach (port_id)
1038
1039For example, to detach a pci device port 0.
1040
1041.. code-block:: console
1042
1043   testpmd> port close 0
1044   Closing ports...
1045   Done
1046
1047   testpmd> port detach 0
1048   Detaching a port...
1049   EAL: PCI device 0000:0a:00.0 on NUMA socket -1
1050   EAL:   remove driver: 8086:10fb rte_ixgbe_pmd
1051   EAL:   PCI memory unmapped at 0x7f83bfa00000
1052   EAL:   PCI memory unmapped at 0x7f83bfa80000
1053   Done
1054
1055
1056For example, to detach a virtual device port 0.
1057
1058.. code-block:: console
1059
1060   testpmd> port close 0
1061   Closing ports...
1062   Done
1063
1064   testpmd> port detach 0
1065   Detaching a port...
1066   PMD: Closing pcap ethdev on numa socket 0
1067   Port 'eth_pcap0' is detached. Now total ports is 0
1068   Done
1069
1070To remove a pci device completely from the system, first detach the port from testpmd.
1071Then the device should be moved under kernel management.
1072Finally the device can be removed using kernel pci hotplug functionality.
1073
1074For example, to move a pci device under kernel management:
1075
1076.. code-block:: console
1077
1078   sudo ./tools/dpdk_nic_bind.py -b ixgbe 0000:0a:00.0
1079
1080   ./tools/dpdk_nic_bind.py --status
1081

1309~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1310
1311Create a new bonding device::
1312
1313   testpmd> create bonded device (mode) (socket)
1314
1315For example, to create a bonded device in mode 1 on socket 0::
1316
1317   testpmd> create bonded 1 0
1318   created new bonded device (port X)
1319
1320add bonding slave
1321~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1322
1323Adds Ethernet device to a Link Bonding device::
1324
1325   testpmd> add bonding slave (slave id) (port id)
1326
1327For example, to add Ethernet device (port 6) to a Link Bonding device (port 10)::
1328
1329   testpmd> add bonding slave 6 10
1330
1331
1332remove bonding slave
1333~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1334
1335Removes an Ethernet slave device from a Link Bonding device::
1336
1337   testpmd> remove bonding slave (slave id) (port id)
1338
1339For example, to remove Ethernet slave device (port 6) to a Link Bonding device (port 10)::
1340
1341   testpmd> remove bonding slave 6 10
1342
1343set bonding mode
1344~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1345
1346Set the Link Bonding mode of a Link Bonding device::
1347
1348   testpmd> set bonding mode (value) (port id)
1349
1350For example, to set the bonding mode of a Link Bonding device (port 10) to broadcast (mode 3)::
1351

1393This adds support for PMD slave devices which do not support link status interrupts.
1394When the mon_period is set to a value greater than 0 then all PMD's which do not support
1395link status ISR will be queried every polling interval to check if their link status has changed::
1396
1397   testpmd> set bonding mon_period (port_id) (value)

1675.. _testpmd_flow_director:
1676
1677flow_director_filter
1678~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1679
1680The Flow Director works in receive mode to identify specific flows or sets of flows and route them to specific queues.
1681
1682Four types of filtering are supported which are referred to as Perfect Match, Signature, Perfect-mac-vlan and
1683Perfect-tunnel filters, the match mode is set by the ``--pkt-filter-mode`` command-line parameter:
1684
1685* Perfect match filters.
1686  The hardware checks a match between the masked fields of the received packets and the programmed filters.
1687  The masked fields are for IP flow.
1688
1689* Signature filters.
1690  The hardware checks a match between a hash-based signature of the masked fields of the received packet.
1691
1692* Perfect-mac-vlan match filters.
1693  The hardware checks a match between the masked fields of the received packets and the programmed filters.
1694  The masked fields are for MAC VLAN flow.
1695
1696* Perfect-tunnel match filters.
1697  The hardware checks a match between the masked fields of the received packets and the programmed filters.
1698  The masked fields are for tunnel flow.
1699
1700The Flow Director filters can match the different fields for different type of packet: flow type, specific input set
1701per flow type and the flexible payload.
1702
1703The Flow Director can also mask out parts of all of these fields so that filters
1704are only applied to certain fields or parts of the fields.
1705
1706Different NICs may have different capabilities, command show port fdir (port_id) can be used to acquire the information.
