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.
60
61
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.

255
256show config
257~~~~~~~~~~~
258
259Displays the configuration of the application.
260The configuration comes from the command-line, the runtime or the application defaults::
261
262   testpmd> show config (rxtx|cores|fwd|txpkts)
263
264The available information categories are:

268* ``cores``: List of forwarding cores.
269
270* ``fwd``: Packet forwarding configuration.
271
272* ``txpkts``: Packets to TX configuration.
273
274For example:
275
276.. code-block:: console
277
278   testpmd> show config rxtx
279
280   io packet forwarding - CRC stripping disabled - packets/burst=16
281   nb forwarding cores=2 - nb forwarding ports=1
282   RX queues=1 - RX desc=128 - RX free threshold=0
283   RX threshold registers: pthresh=8 hthresh=8 wthresh=4
284   TX queues=1 - TX desc=512 - TX free threshold=0
285   TX threshold registers: pthresh=36 hthresh=0 wthresh=0
286   TX RS bit threshold=0 - TXQ flags=0x0
287
288set fwd
289~~~~~~~
290
291Set the packet forwarding mode::
292
293   testpmd> set fwd (io|mac|macswap|flowgen| \
294                     rxonly|txonly|csum|icmpecho|noisy) (""|retry)
295
296``retry`` can be specified for forwarding engines except ``rx_only``.
297
298The available information categories are:
299
300* ``io``: Forwards packets "as-is" in I/O mode.
301  This is the fastest possible forwarding operation as it does not access packets data.
302  This is the default mode.
303
304* ``mac``: Changes the source and the destination Ethernet addresses of packets before forwarding them.
305  Default application behaviour is to set source Ethernet address to that of the transmitting interface, and destination
306  address to a dummy value (set during init). The user may specify a target destination Ethernet address via the 'eth-peer' or
307  'eth-peer-configfile' command-line options. It is not currently possible to specify a specific source Ethernet address.
308
309* ``macswap``: MAC swap forwarding mode.
310  Swaps the source and the destination Ethernet addresses of packets before forwarding them.
311
312* ``flowgen``: Multi-flow generation mode.
313  Originates a number of flows (with varying destination IP addresses), and terminate receive traffic.
314
315* ``rxonly``: Receives packets but doesn't transmit them.
316
317* ``txonly``: Generates and transmits packets without receiving any.
318
319* ``csum``: Changes the checksum field with hardware or software methods depending on the offload flags on the packet.
320
321* ``icmpecho``: Receives a burst of packets, lookup for IMCP echo requests and, if any, send back ICMP echo replies.
322
323* ``ieee1588``: Demonstrate L2 IEEE1588 V2 PTP timestamping for RX and TX. Requires ``CONFIG_RTE_LIBRTE_IEEE1588=y``.
324
325* ``softnic``: Demonstrates the softnic forwarding operation. In this mode, packet forwarding is
326  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``.
327
328* ``noisy``: Noisy neighbour simulation.
329  Simulate more realistic behavior of a guest machine engaged in receiving
330  and sending packets performing Virtual Network Function (VNF).
331
332Example::
333
334   testpmd> set fwd rxonly
335
336   Set rxonly packet forwarding mode
337
338

347
348   testpmd> read rxd 0 0 4
349        0x0000000B - 0x001D0180 / 0x0000000B - 0x001D0180

427Configuration Functions
428-----------------------
429
430The testpmd application can be configured from the runtime as well as from the command-line.
431
432This section details the available configuration functions that are available.
433
434.. note::
435
436   Configuration changes only become active when forwarding is started/restarted.
437
438set default
439~~~~~~~~~~~
440
441Reset forwarding to the default configuration::
442
443   testpmd> set default
444
445set verbose
446~~~~~~~~~~~
447
448Set the debug verbosity level::
449
450   testpmd> set verbose (level)
451
452Currently the only available levels are 0 (silent except for error) and 1 (fully verbose).
453
454set log
455~~~~~~~
456
457Set the log level for a log type::
458
459	testpmd> set log global|(type) (level)
460
461Where:
462
463* ``type`` is the log name.
464
465* ``level`` is the log level.
466
467For example, to change the global log level::
468	testpmd> set log global (level)
469
470Regexes can also be used for type. To change log level of user1, user2 and user3::
471	testpmd> set log user[1-3] (level)
472
473set nbport
474~~~~~~~~~~
475
476Set the number of ports used by the application:
477
478set nbport (num)
479
480This is equivalent to the ``--nb-ports`` command-line option.
481
482set nbcore
483~~~~~~~~~~
484
485Set the number of cores used by the application::
486
487   testpmd> set nbcore (num)
488
489This is equivalent to the ``--nb-cores`` command-line option.
490
491.. note::
492
493   The number of cores used must not be greater than number of ports used multiplied by the number of queues per port.
494
495set coremask
496~~~~~~~~~~~~
497
498Set the forwarding cores hexadecimal mask::
499
500   testpmd> set coremask (mask)
501
502This is equivalent to the ``--coremask`` command-line option.
503
504.. note::
505
506   The master lcore is reserved for command line parsing only and cannot be masked on for packet forwarding.
507
508set portmask
509~~~~~~~~~~~~
510
511Set the forwarding ports hexadecimal mask::
512
513   testpmd> set portmask (mask)

515This is equivalent to the ``--portmask`` command-line option.
516
517set burst
518~~~~~~~~~
519
520Set number of packets per burst::
521
522   testpmd> set burst (num)
523
524This is equivalent to the ``--burst command-line`` option.
525
526When retry is enabled, the transmit delay time and number of retries can also be set::
527
528   testpmd> set burst tx delay (microseconds) retry (num)
529
530set txpkts
531~~~~~~~~~~
532
533Set the length of each segment of the TX-ONLY packets or length of packet for FLOWGEN mode::
534
535   testpmd> set txpkts (x[,y]*)
536
537Where x[,y]* represents a CSV list of values, without white space.
538
539set txsplit
540~~~~~~~~~~~
541
542Set the split policy for the TX packets, applicable for TX-ONLY and CSUM forwarding modes::
543
544   testpmd> set txsplit (off|on|rand)
545
546Where:
547
548* ``off`` disable packet copy & split for CSUM mode.
549
550* ``on`` split outgoing packet into multiple segments. Size of each segment
551  and number of segments per packet is determined by ``set txpkts`` command
552  (see above).
553
554* ``rand`` same as 'on', but number of segments per each packet is a random value between 1 and total number of segments.
555
556set corelist
557~~~~~~~~~~~~
558
559Set the list of forwarding cores::
560

868Where:
869
870* ``ip|udp|tcp|sctp`` always relate to  the inner layer.
871
872* ``outer-ip`` relates to the outer IP layer (only for IPv4) in the case where the packet is recognized
873  as a tunnel packet by the forwarding engine (vxlan, gre and ipip are
874  supported). See also the ``csum parse-tunnel`` command.
875
876* ``outer-udp`` relates to the outer UDP layer in the case where the packet is recognized
877  as a tunnel packet by the forwarding engine (vxlan, vxlan-gpe are
878  supported). See also the ``csum parse-tunnel`` command.

890		queue_start_index (value) queue_num (value)
891
892Set flowtype mapping on a RSS queue region on a port::
893
894   testpmd> set port (port_id) queue-region region_id (value) flowtype (value)
895
896where:
897
898* For the flowtype(pctype) of packet,the specific index for each type has
899  been defined in file i40e_type.h as enum i40e_filter_pctype.
900
901Set user priority mapping on a RSS queue region on a port::
902
903   testpmd> set port (port_id) queue-region UP (value) region_id (value)
904
905Flush all queue region related configuration on a port::
906
907   testpmd> set port (port_id) queue-region flush (on|off)
908
909where:
910
911* "on"is just an enable function which server for other configuration,
912  it is for all configuration about queue region from up layer,
913  at first will only keep in DPDK softwarestored in driver,
914  only after "flush on", it commit all configuration to HW.
915  "off" is just clean all configuration about queue region just now,
916  and restore all to DPDK i40e driver default config when start up.
917
918Show all queue region related configuration info on a port::
919
920   testpmd> show port (port_id) queue-region
921
922.. note::
923
924  Queue region only support on PF by now, so these command is
925  only for configuration of queue region on PF port.
926
927csum parse-tunnel
928~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
929
930Define how tunneled packets should be handled by the csum forward
931engine::
932
933   testpmd> csum parse-tunnel (on|off) (tx_port_id)
934
935If enabled, the csum forward engine will try to recognize supported
936tunnel headers (vxlan, gre, ipip).
937
938If disabled, treat tunnel packets as non-tunneled packets (a inner
939header is handled as a packet payload).
940
941.. note::
942
943   The port argument is the TX port like in the ``csum set`` command.
944
945Example:
946
947Consider a packet in packet like the following::
948
949   eth_out/ipv4_out/udp_out/vxlan/eth_in/ipv4_in/tcp_in
950
951* If parse-tunnel is enabled, the ``ip|udp|tcp|sctp`` parameters of ``csum set``
952  command relate to the inner headers (here ``ipv4_in`` and ``tcp_in``), and the
953  ``outer-ip|outer-udp`` parameter relates to the outer headers (here ``ipv4_out`` and ``udp_out``).
954
955* If parse-tunnel is disabled, the ``ip|udp|tcp|sctp`` parameters of ``csum  set``
956   command relate to the outer headers, here ``ipv4_out`` and ``udp_out``.
957
958csum show
959~~~~~~~~~
960
961Display tx checksum offload configuration::
962
963   testpmd> csum show (port_id)
964
965tso set
966~~~~~~~
967
968Enable TCP Segmentation Offload (TSO) in the ``csum`` forwarding engine::
969
970   testpmd> tso set (segsize) (port_id)
971
972.. note::
973
974   Check the NIC datasheet for hardware limits.
975
976tso show
977~~~~~~~~
978
979Display the status of TCP Segmentation Offload::
980
981   testpmd> tso show (port_id)
982
983set port - gro
984~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
985
986Enable or disable GRO in ``csum`` forwarding engine::
987
988   testpmd> set port <port_id> gro on|off
989
990If enabled, the csum forwarding engine will perform GRO on the TCP/IPv4
991packets received from the given port.
992
993If disabled, packets received from the given port won't be performed
994GRO. By default, GRO is disabled for all ports.
995
996.. note::
997
998   When enable GRO for a port, TCP/IPv4 packets received from the port
999   will be performed GRO. After GRO, all merged packets have bad
1000   checksums, since the GRO library doesn't re-calculate checksums for
1001   the merged packets. Therefore, if users want the merged packets to
1002   have correct checksums, please select HW IP checksum calculation and
1003   HW TCP checksum calculation for the port which the merged packets are
1004   transmitted to.
1005
1006show port - gro
1007~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1008
1009Display GRO configuration for a given port::
1010
1011   testpmd> show port <port_id> gro
1012
1013set gro flush
1014~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1015
1016Set the cycle to flush the GROed packets from reassembly tables::
1017
1018   testpmd> set gro flush <cycles>
1019
1020When enable GRO, the csum forwarding engine performs GRO on received
1021packets, and the GROed packets are stored in reassembly tables. Users
1022can use this command to determine when the GROed packets are flushed
1023from the reassembly tables.
1024
1025The ``cycles`` is measured in GRO operation times. The csum forwarding
1026engine flushes the GROed packets from the tables every ``cycles`` GRO
1027operations.
1028
1029By default, the value of ``cycles`` is 1, which means flush GROed packets
1030from the reassembly tables as soon as one GRO operation finishes. The value
1031of ``cycles`` should be in the range of 1 to ``GRO_MAX_FLUSH_CYCLES``.
1032
1033Please note that the large value of ``cycles`` may cause the poor TCP/IP
1034stack performance. Because the GROed packets are delayed to arrive the
1035stack, thus causing more duplicated ACKs and TCP retransmissions.
1036
1037set port - gso
1038~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1039
1040Toggle per-port GSO support in ``csum`` forwarding engine::
1041
1042   testpmd> set port <port_id> gso on|off
1043
1044If enabled, the csum forwarding engine will perform GSO on supported IPv4
1045packets, transmitted on the given port.
1046
1047If disabled, packets transmitted on the given port will not undergo GSO.
1048By default, GSO is disabled for all ports.
1049
1050.. note::
1051
1052   When GSO is enabled on a port, supported IPv4 packets transmitted on that
1053   port undergo GSO. Afterwards, the segmented packets are represented by
1054   multi-segment mbufs; however, the csum forwarding engine doesn't calculation
1055   of checksums for GSO'd segments in SW. As a result, if users want correct
1056   checksums in GSO segments, they should enable HW checksum calculation for
1057   GSO-enabled ports.
1058
1059   For example, HW checksum calculation for VxLAN GSO'd packets may be enabled
1060   by setting the following options in the csum forwarding engine:
1061
1062   testpmd> csum set outer_ip hw <port_id>
1063
1064   testpmd> csum set ip hw <port_id>
1065
1066   testpmd> csum set tcp hw <port_id>
1067
1068   UDP GSO is the same as IP fragmentation, which treats the UDP header
1069   as the payload and does not modify it during segmentation. That is,
1070   after UDP GSO, only the first output fragment has the original UDP
1071   header. Therefore, users need to enable HW IP checksum calculation
1072   and SW UDP checksum calculation for GSO-enabled ports, if they want
1073   correct checksums for UDP/IPv4 packets.
1074
1075set gso segsz
1076~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1077
1078Set the maximum GSO segment size (measured in bytes), which includes the
1079packet header and the packet payload for GSO-enabled ports (global)::
1080
1081   testpmd> set gso segsz <length>

1583Port Functions
1584--------------
1585
1586The following sections show functions for configuring ports.
1587
1588.. note::
1589
1590   Port configuration changes only become active when forwarding is started/restarted.
1591
1592port attach
1593~~~~~~~~~~~
1594
1595Attach a port specified by pci address or virtual device args::
1596
1597   testpmd> port attach (identifier)
1598
1599To attach a new pci device, the device should be recognized by kernel first.
1600Then it should be moved under DPDK management.
1601Finally the port can be attached to testpmd.
1602
1603For example, to move a pci device using ixgbe under DPDK management:
1604
1605.. code-block:: console
1606
1607   # Check the status of the available devices.
1608   ./usertools/dpdk-devbind.py --status
1609
1610   Network devices using DPDK-compatible driver
1611   ============================================
1612   <none>
1613
1614   Network devices using kernel driver
1615   ===================================
1616   0000:0a:00.0 '82599ES 10-Gigabit' if=eth2 drv=ixgbe unused=
1617
1618
1619   # Bind the device to igb_uio.
1620   sudo ./usertools/dpdk-devbind.py -b igb_uio 0000:0a:00.0
1621
1622
1623   # Recheck the status of the devices.
1624   ./usertools/dpdk-devbind.py --status
1625   Network devices using DPDK-compatible driver
1626   ============================================
1627   0000:0a:00.0 '82599ES 10-Gigabit' drv=igb_uio unused=
1628
1629To attach a port created by virtual device, above steps are not needed.
1630
1631For example, to attach a port whose pci address is 0000:0a:00.0.
1632
1633.. code-block:: console
1634
1635   testpmd> port attach 0000:0a:00.0
1636   Attaching a new port...

1642   PMD: eth_ixgbe_dev_init(): port 0 vendorID=0x8086 deviceID=0x10fb
1643   Port 0 is attached. Now total ports is 1
1644   Done
1645
1646For example, to attach a port created by pcap PMD.
1647
1648.. code-block:: console
1649
1650   testpmd> port attach net_pcap0
1651   Attaching a new port...
1652   PMD: Initializing pmd_pcap for net_pcap0
1653   PMD: Creating pcap-backed ethdev on numa socket 0
1654   Port 0 is attached. Now total ports is 1
1655   Done
1656
1657In this case, identifier is ``net_pcap0``.
1658This identifier format is the same as ``--vdev`` format of DPDK applications.
1659
1660For example, to re-attach a bonded port which has been previously detached,
1661the mode and slave parameters must be given.
1662
1663.. code-block:: console
1664
1665   testpmd> port attach net_bond_0,mode=0,slave=1
1666   Attaching a new port...
1667   EAL: Initializing pmd_bond for net_bond_0
1668   EAL: Create bonded device net_bond_0 on port 0 in mode 0 on socket 0.
1669   Port 0 is attached. Now total ports is 1
1670   Done
1671
1672
1673port detach
1674~~~~~~~~~~~
1675
1676Detach a specific port::
1677
1678   testpmd> port detach (port_id)
1679
1680Before detaching a port, the port should be stopped and closed.
1681
1682For example, to detach a pci device port 0.
1683
1684.. code-block:: console
1685
1686   testpmd> port stop 0
1687   Stopping ports...
1688   Done
1689   testpmd> port close 0
1690   Closing ports...
1691   Done
1692
1693   testpmd> port detach 0

1719To remove a pci device completely from the system, first detach the port from testpmd.
1720Then the device should be moved under kernel management.
1721Finally the device can be removed using kernel pci hotplug functionality.
1722
1723For example, to move a pci device under kernel management:
1724
1725.. code-block:: console
1726
1727   sudo ./usertools/dpdk-devbind.py -b ixgbe 0000:0a:00.0

2052
2053   testpmd> add bonding slave 6 10
2054
2055
2056remove bonding slave
2057~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
2058
2059Removes an Ethernet slave device from a Link Bonding device::

2857.. _testpmd_flow_director:
2858
2859flow_director_filter
2860~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
2861
2862The Flow Director works in receive mode to identify specific flows or sets of flows and route them to specific queues.
2863
2864Four types of filtering are supported which are referred to as Perfect Match, Signature, Perfect-mac-vlan and
2865Perfect-tunnel filters, the match mode is set by the ``--pkt-filter-mode`` command-line parameter:
2866
2867* Perfect match filters.
2868  The hardware checks a match between the masked fields of the received packets and the programmed filters.
2869  The masked fields are for IP flow.
2870
2871* Signature filters.
2872  The hardware checks a match between a hash-based signature of the masked fields of the received packet.
2873
2874* Perfect-mac-vlan match filters.
2875  The hardware checks a match between the masked fields of the received packets and the programmed filters.
2876  The masked fields are for MAC VLAN flow.
2877
2878* Perfect-tunnel match filters.
2879  The hardware checks a match between the masked fields of the received packets and the programmed filters.
2880  The masked fields are for tunnel flow.
2881
2882* Perfect-raw-flow-type match filters.
2883  The hardware checks a match between the masked fields of the received packets and pre-loaded raw (template) packet.
2884  The masked fields are specified by input sets.
2885
2886The Flow Director filters can match the different fields for different type of packet: flow type, specific input set
2887per flow type and the flexible payload.
2888
2889The Flow Director can also mask out parts of all of these fields so that filters
2890are only applied to certain fields or parts of the fields.
2891
2892Note that for raw flow type mode the source and destination fields in the
2893raw packet buffer need to be presented in a reversed order with respect
2894to the expected received packets.
2895For example: IP source and destination addresses or TCP/UDP/SCTP
2896source and destination ports
2897
2898Different NICs may have different capabilities, command show port fdir (port_id) can be used to acquire the information.

3118
3119Flow rules management
3120---------------------
3121
3122Control of the generic flow API (*rte_flow*) is fully exposed through the
3123``flow`` command (validation, creation, destruction, queries and operation
3124modes).
3125
3126Considering *rte_flow* overlaps with all `Filter Functions`_, using both
3127features simultaneously may cause undefined side-effects and is therefore
3128not recommended.
3129
3130``flow`` syntax
3131~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
3132
3133Because the ``flow`` command uses dynamic tokens to handle the large number
3134of possible flow rules combinations, its behavior differs slightly from
3135other commands, in particular:
3136
3137- Pressing *?* or the *<tab>* key displays contextual help for the current
3138  token, not that of the entire command.
3139
3140- Optional and repeated parameters are supported (provided they are listed
3141  in the contextual help).
3142
3143The first parameter stands for the operation mode. Possible operations and
3144their general syntax are described below. They are covered in detail in the
3145following sections.
3146
3147- Check whether a flow rule can be created::
3148
3149   flow validate {port_id}
3150       [group {group_id}] [priority {level}] [ingress] [egress] [transfer]
3151       pattern {item} [/ {item} [...]] / end
3152       actions {action} [/ {action} [...]] / end
3153
3154- Create a flow rule::
3155
3156   flow create {port_id}
3157       [group {group_id}] [priority {level}] [ingress] [egress] [transfer]
3158       pattern {item} [/ {item} [...]] / end
3159       actions {action} [/ {action} [...]] / end
3160
3161- Destroy specific flow rules::
3162
3163   flow destroy {port_id} rule {rule_id} [...]
3164
3165- Destroy all flow rules::
3166
3167   flow flush {port_id}
3168
3169- Query an existing flow rule::
3170
3171   flow query {port_id} {rule_id} {action}
3172
3173- List existing flow rules sorted by priority, filtered by group
3174  identifiers::
3175
3176   flow list {port_id} [group {group_id}] [...]
3177
3178- Restrict ingress traffic to the defined flow rules::
3179
3180   flow isolate {port_id} {boolean}
3181
3182Validating flow rules
3183~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
3184
3185``flow validate`` reports whether a flow rule would be accepted by the
3186underlying device in its current state but stops short of creating it. It is
3187bound to ``rte_flow_validate()``::
3188
3189   flow validate {port_id}
3190      [group {group_id}] [priority {level}] [ingress] [egress] [transfer]
3191      pattern {item} [/ {item} [...]] / end
3192      actions {action} [/ {action} [...]] / end
3193
3194If successful, it will show::
3195
3196   Flow rule validated
3197
3198Otherwise it will show an error message of the form::
3199
3200   Caught error type [...] ([...]): [...]
3201
3202This command uses the same parameters as ``flow create``, their format is
3203described in `Creating flow rules`_.
3204
3205Check whether redirecting any Ethernet packet received on port 0 to RX queue
3206index 6 is supported::
3207
3208   testpmd> flow validate 0 ingress pattern eth / end
3209      actions queue index 6 / end
3210   Flow rule validated
3211   testpmd>
3212
3213Port 0 does not support TCPv6 rules::
3214
3215   testpmd> flow validate 0 ingress pattern eth / ipv6 / tcp / end
3216      actions drop / end
3217   Caught error type 9 (specific pattern item): Invalid argument
3218   testpmd>
3219
3220Creating flow rules
3221~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
3222
3223``flow create`` validates and creates the specified flow rule. It is bound
3224to ``rte_flow_create()``::
3225
3226   flow create {port_id}
3227      [group {group_id}] [priority {level}] [ingress] [egress] [transfer]
3228      pattern {item} [/ {item} [...]] / end
3229      actions {action} [/ {action} [...]] / end
3230
3231If successful, it will return a flow rule ID usable with other commands::
3232
3233   Flow rule #[...] created
3234
3235Otherwise it will show an error message of the form::
3236
3237   Caught error type [...] ([...]): [...]
3238
3239Parameters describe in the following order:
3240
3241- Attributes (*group*, *priority*, *ingress*, *egress*, *transfer* tokens).
3242- A matching pattern, starting with the *pattern* token and terminated by an
3243  *end* pattern item.
3244- Actions, starting with the *actions* token and terminated by an *end*
3245  action.
3246
3247These translate directly to *rte_flow* objects provided as-is to the
3248underlying functions.
3249
3250The shortest valid definition only comprises mandatory tokens::
3251
3252   testpmd> flow create 0 pattern end actions end
3253
3254Note that PMDs may refuse rules that essentially do nothing such as this
3255one.
3256
3257**All unspecified object values are automatically initialized to 0.**
3258
3259Attributes
3260^^^^^^^^^^
3261
3262These tokens affect flow rule attributes (``struct rte_flow_attr``) and are
3263specified before the ``pattern`` token.
3264
3265- ``group {group id}``: priority group.
3266- ``priority {level}``: priority level within group.
3267- ``ingress``: rule applies to ingress traffic.
3268- ``egress``: rule applies to egress traffic.
3269- ``transfer``: apply rule directly to endpoints found in pattern.
3270
3271Each instance of an attribute specified several times overrides the previous
3272value as shown below (group 4 is used)::
3273
3274   testpmd> flow create 0 group 42 group 24 group 4 [...]
3275
3276Note that once enabled, ``ingress`` and ``egress`` cannot be disabled.
3277
3278While not specifying a direction is an error, some rules may allow both
3279simultaneously.
3280
3281Most rules affect RX therefore contain the ``ingress`` token::
3282
3283   testpmd> flow create 0 ingress pattern [...]
3284
3285Matching pattern
3286^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
3287
3288A matching pattern starts after the ``pattern`` token. It is made of pattern
3289items and is terminated by a mandatory ``end`` item.
3290
3291Items are named after their type (*RTE_FLOW_ITEM_TYPE_* from ``enum
3292rte_flow_item_type``).
3293
3294The ``/`` token is used as a separator between pattern items as shown
3295below::
3296
3297   testpmd> flow create 0 ingress pattern eth / ipv4 / udp / end [...]
3298
3299Note that protocol items like these must be stacked from lowest to highest
3300layer to make sense. For instance, the following rule is either invalid or
3301unlikely to match any packet::
3302
3303   testpmd> flow create 0 ingress pattern eth / udp / ipv4 / end [...]
3304
3305More information on these restrictions can be found in the *rte_flow*
3306documentation.
3307
3308Several items support additional specification structures, for example
3309``ipv4`` allows specifying source and destination addresses as follows::
3310
3311   testpmd> flow create 0 ingress pattern eth / ipv4 src is 10.1.1.1
3312      dst is 10.2.0.0 / end [...]
3313
3314This rule matches all IPv4 traffic with the specified properties.
3315
3316In this example, ``src`` and ``dst`` are field names of the underlying
3317``struct rte_flow_item_ipv4`` object. All item properties can be specified
3318in a similar fashion.
3319
3320The ``is`` token means that the subsequent value must be matched exactly,
3321and assigns ``spec`` and ``mask`` fields in ``struct rte_flow_item``
3322accordingly. Possible assignment tokens are:
3323
3324- ``is``: match value perfectly (with full bit-mask).
3325- ``spec``: match value according to configured bit-mask.
3326- ``last``: specify upper bound to establish a range.
3327- ``mask``: specify bit-mask with relevant bits set to one.
3328- ``prefix``: generate bit-mask from a prefix length.
3329
3330These yield identical results::
3331
3332   ipv4 src is 10.1.1.1
3333
3334::
3335
3336   ipv4 src spec 10.1.1.1 src mask 255.255.255.255
3337
3338::
3339
3340   ipv4 src spec 10.1.1.1 src prefix 32
3341
3342::
3343
3344   ipv4 src is 10.1.1.1 src last 10.1.1.1 # range with a single value
3345
3346::
3347
3348   ipv4 src is 10.1.1.1 src last 0 # 0 disables range
3349
3350Inclusive ranges can be defined with ``last``::
3351
3352   ipv4 src is 10.1.1.1 src last 10.2.3.4 # 10.1.1.1 to 10.2.3.4
3353
3354Note that ``mask`` affects both ``spec`` and ``last``::
3355
3356   ipv4 src is 10.1.1.1 src last 10.2.3.4 src mask 255.255.0.0
3357      # matches 10.1.0.0 to 10.2.255.255
3358
3359Properties can be modified multiple times::
3360
3361   ipv4 src is 10.1.1.1 src is 10.1.2.3 src is 10.2.3.4 # matches 10.2.3.4
3362
3363::
3364
3365   ipv4 src is 10.1.1.1 src prefix 24 src prefix 16 # matches 10.1.0.0/16
3366

3535
3536Actions list
3537^^^^^^^^^^^^
3538
3539A list of actions starts after the ``actions`` token in the same fashion as
3540`Matching pattern`_; actions are separated by ``/`` tokens and the list is
3541terminated by a mandatory ``end`` action.
3542
3543Actions are named after their type (*RTE_FLOW_ACTION_TYPE_* from ``enum
3544rte_flow_action_type``).
3545
3546Dropping all incoming UDPv4 packets can be expressed as follows::
3547
3548   testpmd> flow create 0 ingress pattern eth / ipv4 / udp / end
3549      actions drop / end
3550
3551Several actions have configurable properties which must be specified when
3552there is no valid default value. For example, ``queue`` requires a target
3553queue index.
3554
3555This rule redirects incoming UDPv4 traffic to queue index 6::
3556
3557   testpmd> flow create 0 ingress pattern eth / ipv4 / udp / end
3558      actions queue index 6 / end
3559
3560While this one could be rejected by PMDs (unspecified queue index)::
3561
3562   testpmd> flow create 0 ingress pattern eth / ipv4 / udp / end
3563      actions queue / end
3564
3565As defined by *rte_flow*, the list is not ordered, all actions of a given
3566rule are performed simultaneously. These are equivalent::
3567
3568   queue index 6 / void / mark id 42 / end
3569
3570::
3571
3572   void / mark id 42 / queue index 6 / end
3573
3574All actions in a list should have different types, otherwise only the last
3575action of a given type is taken into account::
3576
3577   queue index 4 / queue index 5 / queue index 6 / end # will use queue 6
3578
3579::
3580
3581   drop / drop / drop / end # drop is performed only once
3582
3583::
3584
3585   mark id 42 / queue index 3 / mark id 24 / end # mark will be 24
3586
3587Considering they are performed simultaneously, opposite and overlapping
3588actions can sometimes be combined when the end result is unambiguous::
3589
3590   drop / queue index 6 / end # drop has no effect
3591
3592::
3593
3594   queue index 6 / rss queues 6 7 8 / end # queue has no effect
3595
3596::
3597
3598   drop / passthru / end # drop has no effect
3599
3600Note that PMDs may still refuse such combinations.

3748Destroying flow rules
3749~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
3750
3751``flow destroy`` destroys one or more rules from their rule ID (as returned
3752by ``flow create``), this command calls ``rte_flow_destroy()`` as many
3753times as necessary::
3754
3755   flow destroy {port_id} rule {rule_id} [...]
3756
3757If successful, it will show::
3758
3759   Flow rule #[...] destroyed
3760
3761It does not report anything for rule IDs that do not exist. The usual error
3762message is shown when a rule cannot be destroyed::
3763
3764   Caught error type [...] ([...]): [...]
3765
3766``flow flush`` destroys all rules on a device and does not take extra
3767arguments. It is bound to ``rte_flow_flush()``::
3768
3769   flow flush {port_id}
3770
3771Any errors are reported as above.
3772
3773Creating several rules and destroying them::
3774
3775   testpmd> flow create 0 ingress pattern eth / ipv6 / end
3776      actions queue index 2 / end
3777   Flow rule #0 created
3778   testpmd> flow create 0 ingress pattern eth / ipv4 / end
3779      actions queue index 3 / end
3780   Flow rule #1 created
3781   testpmd> flow destroy 0 rule 0 rule 1
3782   Flow rule #1 destroyed
3783   Flow rule #0 destroyed
3784   testpmd>
3785
3786The same result can be achieved using ``flow flush``::
3787
3788   testpmd> flow create 0 ingress pattern eth / ipv6 / end
3789      actions queue index 2 / end
3790   Flow rule #0 created
3791   testpmd> flow create 0 ingress pattern eth / ipv4 / end
3792      actions queue index 3 / end
3793   Flow rule #1 created
3794   testpmd> flow flush 0
3795   testpmd>
3796
3797Non-existent rule IDs are ignored::
3798
3799   testpmd> flow create 0 ingress pattern eth / ipv6 / end
3800      actions queue index 2 / end
3801   Flow rule #0 created
3802   testpmd> flow create 0 ingress pattern eth / ipv4 / end
3803      actions queue index 3 / end
3804   Flow rule #1 created
3805   testpmd> flow destroy 0 rule 42 rule 10 rule 2
3806   testpmd>
3807   testpmd> flow destroy 0 rule 0
3808   Flow rule #0 destroyed
3809   testpmd>
3810
3811Querying flow rules
3812~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
3813
3814``flow query`` queries a specific action of a flow rule having that
3815ability. Such actions collect information that can be reported using this
3816command. It is bound to ``rte_flow_query()``::
3817
3818   flow query {port_id} {rule_id} {action}
3819
3820If successful, it will display either the retrieved data for known actions
3821or the following message::
3822
3823   Cannot display result for action type [...] ([...])
3824
3825Otherwise, it will complain either that the rule does not exist or that some
3826error occurred::
3827
3828   Flow rule #[...] not found
3829
3830::
3831
3832   Caught error type [...] ([...]): [...]
3833
3834Currently only the ``count`` action is supported. This action reports the
3835number of packets that hit the flow rule and the total number of bytes. Its
3836output has the following format::
3837
3838   count:
3839    hits_set: [...] # whether "hits" contains a valid value
3840    bytes_set: [...] # whether "bytes" contains a valid value
3841    hits: [...] # number of packets
3842    bytes: [...] # number of bytes
3843
3844Querying counters for TCPv6 packets redirected to queue 6::
3845
3846   testpmd> flow create 0 ingress pattern eth / ipv6 / tcp / end
3847      actions queue index 6 / count / end
3848   Flow rule #4 created
3849   testpmd> flow query 0 4 count
3850   count:
3851    hits_set: 1
3852    bytes_set: 0
3853    hits: 386446
3854    bytes: 0
3855   testpmd>
3856
3857Listing flow rules
3858~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
3859
3860``flow list`` lists existing flow rules sorted by priority and optionally
3861filtered by group identifiers::
3862
3863   flow list {port_id} [group {group_id}] [...]
3864
3865This command only fails with the following message if the device does not
3866exist::
3867
3868   Invalid port [...]
3869
3870Output consists of a header line followed by a short description of each
3871flow rule, one per line. There is no output at all when no flow rules are
3872configured on the device::
3873
3874   ID      Group   Prio    Attr    Rule
3875   [...]   [...]   [...]   [...]   [...]
3876
3877``Attr`` column flags:
3878
3879- ``i`` for ``ingress``.
3880- ``e`` for ``egress``.
3881
3882Creating several flow rules and listing them::
3883
3884   testpmd> flow create 0 ingress pattern eth / ipv4 / end
3885      actions queue index 6 / end
3886   Flow rule #0 created
3887   testpmd> flow create 0 ingress pattern eth / ipv6 / end
3888      actions queue index 2 / end
3889   Flow rule #1 created
3890   testpmd> flow create 0 priority 5 ingress pattern eth / ipv4 / udp / end
3891      actions rss queues 6 7 8 end / end
3892   Flow rule #2 created
3893   testpmd> flow list 0
3894   ID      Group   Prio    Attr    Rule
3895   0       0       0       i-      ETH IPV4 => QUEUE
3896   1       0       0       i-      ETH IPV6 => QUEUE
3897   2       0       5       i-      ETH IPV4 UDP => RSS
3898   testpmd>
3899
3900Rules are sorted by priority (i.e. group ID first, then priority level)::
3901
3902   testpmd> flow list 1
3903   ID      Group   Prio    Attr    Rule
3904   0       0       0       i-      ETH => COUNT
3905   6       0       500     i-      ETH IPV6 TCP => DROP COUNT
3906   5       0       1000    i-      ETH IPV6 ICMP => QUEUE
3907   1       24      0       i-      ETH IPV4 UDP => QUEUE
3908   4       24      10      i-      ETH IPV4 TCP => DROP
3909   3       24      20      i-      ETH IPV4 => DROP
3910   2       24      42      i-      ETH IPV4 UDP => QUEUE
3911   7       63      0       i-      ETH IPV6 UDP VXLAN => MARK QUEUE
3912   testpmd>
3913
3914Output can be limited to specific groups::
3915
3916   testpmd> flow list 1 group 0 group 63
3917   ID      Group   Prio    Attr    Rule
3918   0       0       0       i-      ETH => COUNT
3919   6       0       500     i-      ETH IPV6 TCP => DROP COUNT
3920   5       0       1000    i-      ETH IPV6 ICMP => QUEUE
3921   7       63      0       i-      ETH IPV6 UDP VXLAN => MARK QUEUE
3922   testpmd>
3923
3924Toggling isolated mode
3925~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
3926
3927``flow isolate`` can be used to tell the underlying PMD that ingress traffic
3928must only be injected from the defined flow rules; that no default traffic
3929is expected outside those rules and the driver is free to assign more
3930resources to handle them. It is bound to ``rte_flow_isolate()``::
3931
3932 flow isolate {port_id} {boolean}
3933
3934If successful, enabling or disabling isolated mode shows either::
3935
3936 Ingress traffic on port [...]
3937    is now restricted to the defined flow rules
3938
3939Or::
3940
3941 Ingress traffic on port [...]
3942    is not restricted anymore to the defined flow rules
3943
3944Otherwise, in case of error::
3945
3946   Caught error type [...] ([...]): [...]
3947
3948Mainly due to its side effects, PMDs supporting this mode may not have the
3949ability to toggle it more than once without reinitializing affected ports
3950first (e.g. by exiting testpmd).
3951
3952Enabling isolated mode::
3953
3954 testpmd> flow isolate 0 true
3955 Ingress traffic on port 0 is now restricted to the defined flow rules
3956 testpmd>
3957
3958Disabling isolated mode::
3959
3960 testpmd> flow isolate 0 false
3961 Ingress traffic on port 0 is not restricted anymore to the defined flow rules
3962 testpmd>
3963
3964Sample QinQ flow rules
3965~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
3966
3967Before creating QinQ rule(s) the following commands should be issued to enable QinQ::
3968
3969   testpmd> port stop 0
3970   testpmd> vlan set qinq on 0
3971
3972The above command sets the inner and outer TPID's to 0x8100.
3973
3974To change the TPID's the following commands should be used::
3975
3976   testpmd> vlan set outer tpid 0xa100 0
3977   testpmd> vlan set inner tpid 0x9100 0
3978   testpmd> port start 0
3979
3980Validate and create a QinQ rule on port 0 to steer traffic to a VF queue in a VM.
3981
3982::
3983
3984   testpmd> flow validate 0 ingress pattern eth / vlan tci is 123 /
3985       vlan tci is 456 / end actions vf id 1 / queue index 0 / end
3986   Flow rule #0 validated
3987
3988   testpmd> flow create 0 ingress pattern eth / vlan tci is 4 /
3989       vlan tci is 456 / end actions vf id 123 / queue index 0 / end
3990   Flow rule #0 created
3991
3992   testpmd> flow list 0
3993   ID      Group   Prio    Attr    Rule
3994   0       0       0       i-      ETH VLAN VLAN=>VF QUEUE
3995
3996Validate and create a QinQ rule on port 0 to steer traffic to a queue on the host.
3997
3998::
3999
4000   testpmd> flow validate 0 ingress pattern eth / vlan tci is 321 /
4001        vlan tci is 654 / end actions pf / queue index 0 / end
4002   Flow rule #1 validated
4003
4004   testpmd> flow create 0 ingress pattern eth / vlan tci is 321 /
4005        vlan tci is 654 / end actions pf / queue index 1 / end
4006   Flow rule #1 created
4007
4008   testpmd> flow list 0
4009   ID      Group   Prio    Attr    Rule
4010   0       0       0       i-      ETH VLAN VLAN=>VF QUEUE
4011   1       0       0       i-      ETH VLAN VLAN=>PF QUEUE
4012
4013Sample VXLAN encapsulation rule
4014~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
4015
4016VXLAN encapsulation outer layer has default value pre-configured in testpmd
4017source code, those can be changed by using the following commands
4018
4019IPv4 VXLAN outer header::
4020
4021 testpmd> set vxlan ip-version ipv4 vni 4 udp-src 4 udp-dst 4 ip-src 127.0.0.1

4029 testpmd> flow create 0 ingress pattern end actions vxlan_encap /
4030         queue index 0 / end
4031
4032IPv6 VXLAN outer header::

4042 testpmd> flow create 0 ingress pattern end actions vxlan_encap /
4043         queue index 0 / end
4044
4045Sample NVGRE encapsulation rule
4046~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
4047
4048NVGRE encapsulation outer layer has default value pre-configured in testpmd
4049source code, those can be changed by using the following commands
4050
4051IPv4 NVGRE outer header::
4052
4053 testpmd> set nvgre ip-version ipv4 tni 4 ip-src 127.0.0.1 ip-dst 128.0.0.1

4075
4076BPF Functions
4077--------------
4078
4079The following sections show functions to load/unload eBPF based filters.
4080
4081bpf-load
4082~~~~~~~~
4083
4084Load an eBPF program as a callback for partciular RX/TX queue::
4085
4086   testpmd> bpf-load rx|tx (portid) (queueid) (load-flags) (bpf-prog-filename)
4087
4088The available load-flags are:
4089
4090* ``J``: use JIT generated native code, otherwise BPF interpreter will be used.
4091
4092* ``M``: assume input parameter is a pointer to rte_mbuf, otherwise assume it is a pointer to first segment's data.
4093
4094* ``-``: none.
4095
4096.. note::
4097
4098   You'll need clang v3.7 or above to build bpf program you'd like to load
4099
4100For example:
4101
4102.. code-block:: console
4103
4104   cd test/bpf
4105   clang -O2 -target bpf -c t1.c
4106
4107Then to load (and JIT compile) t1.o at RX queue 0, port 1::
4108
4109.. code-block:: console
4110
4111   testpmd> bpf-load rx 1 0 J ./dpdk.org/test/bpf/t1.o
4112
4113To load (not JITed) t1.o at TX queue 0, port 0::
4114
4115.. code-block:: console
4116
4117   testpmd> bpf-load tx 0 0 - ./dpdk.org/test/bpf/t1.o
4118
4119bpf-unload
4120~~~~~~~~~~
4121
4122Unload previously loaded eBPF program for partciular RX/TX queue::
4123
4124   testpmd> bpf-unload rx|tx (portid) (queueid)
4125
4126For example to unload BPF filter from TX queue 0, port 0:
4127
4128.. code-block:: console
4129
4130   testpmd> bpf-load tx 0 0 - ./dpdk.org/test/bpf/t1.o
4131
