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]*)

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

605
606Disable hardware insertion of a VLAN header in packets sent on a port::
607
608   testpmd> tx_vlan reset (port_id)
609
610csum set
611~~~~~~~~
612
613Select hardware or software calculation of the checksum when
614transmitting a packet using the ``csum`` forwarding engine::
615
616   testpmd> csum set (ip|udp|tcp|sctp|outer-ip) (hw|sw) (port_id)
617
618Where:
619
620* ``ip|udp|tcp|sctp`` always relate to  the inner layer.
621
622* ``outer-ip`` relates to the outer IP layer (only for IPv4) in the case where the packet is recognized
623  as a tunnel packet by the forwarding engine (vxlan, gre and ipip are
624  supported). See also the ``csum parse-tunnel`` command.
625
626.. note::
627
628   Check the NIC Datasheet for hardware limits.
629
630csum parse-tunnel
631~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
632
633Define how tunneled packets should be handled by the csum forward
634engine::
635
636   testpmd> csum parse-tunnel (on|off) (tx_port_id)
637
638If enabled, the csum forward engine will try to recognize supported
639tunnel headers (vxlan, gre, ipip).
640
641If disabled, treat tunnel packets as non-tunneled packets (a inner
642header is handled as a packet payload).
643
644.. note::
645
646   The port argument is the TX port like in the ``csum set`` command.
647
648Example:
649
650Consider a packet in packet like the following::
651
652   eth_out/ipv4_out/udp_out/vxlan/eth_in/ipv4_in/tcp_in
653
654* If parse-tunnel is enabled, the ``ip|udp|tcp|sctp`` parameters of ``csum set``
655  command relate to the inner headers (here ``ipv4_in`` and ``tcp_in``), and the
656  ``outer-ip parameter`` relates to the outer headers (here ``ipv4_out``).
657
658* If parse-tunnel is disabled, the ``ip|udp|tcp|sctp`` parameters of ``csum  set``
659   command relate to the outer headers, here ``ipv4_out`` and ``udp_out``.
660

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

1033   EAL:   PCI memory unmapped at 0x7f83bfa80000
1034   Done
1035
1036
1037For example, to detach a virtual device port 0.
1038
1039.. code-block:: console
1040
1041   testpmd> port close 0
1042   Closing ports...
1043   Done
1044
1045   testpmd> port detach 0
1046   Detaching a port...
1047   PMD: Closing pcap ethdev on numa socket 0
1048   Port 'eth_pcap0' is detached. Now total ports is 0
1049   Done
1050
1051To remove a pci device completely from the system, first detach the port from testpmd.
1052Then the device should be moved under kernel management.
1053Finally the device can be removed using kernel pci hotplug functionality.
1054
1055For example, to move a pci device under kernel management:
1056
1057.. code-block:: console
1058
1059   sudo ./tools/dpdk_nic_bind.py -b ixgbe 0000:0a:00.0
1060
1061   ./tools/dpdk_nic_bind.py --status
1062

1202Packet dropping for packets with no descriptors is off by default.
1203
1204The ``on`` option is equivalent to the ``--enable-drop-en`` command-line option.
1205
1206port config - RSS
1207~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1208
1209Set the RSS (Receive Side Scaling) mode on or off::
1210
1211   testpmd> port config all rss (all|ip|tcp|udp|sctp|ether|none)
1212
1213RSS is on by default.
1214
1215The ``none`` option is equivalent to the ``--disable-rss`` command-line option.
1216
1217port config - RSS Reta
1218~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1219
1220Set the RSS (Receive Side Scaling) redirection table::
1221
1222   testpmd> port config all rss reta (hash,queue)[,(hash,queue)]
1223
1224port config - DCB
1225~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1226
1227Set the DCB mode for an individual port::
1228
1229   testpmd> port config (port_id) dcb vt (on|off) (traffic_class) pfc (on|off)
1230
1231The traffic class should be 4 or 8.
1232
1233port config - Burst
1234~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1235
1236Set the number of packets per burst::
1237
1238   testpmd> port config all burst (value)
1239
1240This is equivalent to the ``--burst`` command-line option.
1241
1242port config - Threshold
1243~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1244
1245Set thresholds for TX/RX queues::
1246
1247   testpmd> port config all (threshold) (value)
1248
1249Where the threshold type can be:
1250
1251* ``txpt:`` Set the prefetch threshold register of the TX rings, 0 <= value <= 255.
1252
1253* ``txht:`` Set the host threshold register of the TX rings, 0 <= value <= 255.

1272Link Bonding Functions
1273----------------------
1274
1275The Link Bonding functions make it possible to dynamically create and
1276manage link bonding devices from within testpmd interactive prompt.
1277
1278create bonded device
1279~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1280
1281Create a new bonding device::
1282
1283   testpmd> create bonded device (mode) (socket)
1284
1285For example, to create a bonded device in mode 1 on socket 0::
1286
1287   testpmd> create bonded 1 0
1288   created new bonded device (port X)
1289
1290add bonding slave
1291~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1292
1293Adds Ethernet device to a Link Bonding device::
1294
1295   testpmd> add bonding slave (slave id) (port id)
1296
1297For example, to add Ethernet device (port 6) to a Link Bonding device (port 10)::
1298
1299   testpmd> add bonding slave 6 10
1300
1301
1302remove bonding slave
1303~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1304
1305Removes an Ethernet slave device from a Link Bonding device::
1306
1307   testpmd> remove bonding slave (slave id) (port id)
1308
1309For example, to remove Ethernet slave device (port 6) to a Link Bonding device (port 10)::
1310
1311   testpmd> remove bonding slave 6 10
1312
1313set bonding mode
1314~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1315
1316Set the Link Bonding mode of a Link Bonding device::
1317
1318   testpmd> set bonding mode (value) (port id)
1319
1320For example, to set the bonding mode of a Link Bonding device (port 10) to broadcast (mode 3)::
1321
1322   testpmd> set bonding mode 3 10
1323
1324set bonding primary
1325~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1326
1327Set an Ethernet slave device as the primary device on a Link Bonding device::
1328
1329   testpmd> set bonding primary (slave id) (port id)
1330
1331For example, to set the Ethernet slave device (port 6) as the primary port of a Link Bonding device (port 10)::
1332
1333   testpmd> set bonding primary 6 10
1334
1335set bonding mac

1337
1338Set the MAC address of a Link Bonding device::
1339
1340   testpmd> set bonding mac (port id) (mac)
1341
1342For example, to set the MAC address of a Link Bonding device (port 10) to 00:00:00:00:00:01::
1343
1344   testpmd> set bonding mac 10 00:00:00:00:00:01
1345
1346set bonding xmit_balance_policy
1347~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1348
1349Set the transmission policy for a Link Bonding device when it is in Balance XOR mode::
1350
1351   testpmd> set bonding xmit_balance_policy (port_id) (l2|l23|l34)
1352
1353For example, set a Link Bonding device (port 10) to use a balance policy of layer 3+4 (IP addresses & UDP ports)::
1354
1355   testpmd> set bonding xmit_balance_policy 10 l34
1356
1357
1358set bonding mon_period
1359~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1360
1361Set the link status monitoring polling period in milliseconds for a bonding device.
1362
1363This adds support for PMD slave devices which do not support link status interrupts.
1364When the mon_period is set to a value greater than 0 then all PMD's which do not support
1365link status ISR will be queried every polling interval to check if their link status has changed::
1366
1367   testpmd> set bonding mon_period (port_id) (value)
1368
1369For example, to set the link status monitoring polling period of bonded device (port 5) to 150ms::
1370
1371   testpmd> set bonding mon_period 5 150
1372
1373

1383in balance mode with a transmission policy of layer 2+3::
1384
1385   testpmd> show bonding config 9
1386        Bonding mode: 2
1387        Balance Xmit Policy: BALANCE_XMIT_POLICY_LAYER23
1388        Slaves (3): [1 3 4]
1389        Active Slaves (3): [1 3 4]
1390        Primary: [3]
1391

1645.. _testpmd_flow_director:
1646
1647flow_director_filter
1648~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1649
1650The Flow Director works in receive mode to identify specific flows or sets of flows and route them to specific queues.
1651
1652Four types of filtering are supported which are referred to as Perfect Match, Signature, Perfect-mac-vlan and
1653Perfect-tunnel filters, the match mode is set by the ``--pkt-filter-mode`` command-line parameter:
1654
1655* Perfect match filters.
1656  The hardware checks a match between the masked fields of the received packets and the programmed filters.
1657  The masked fields are for IP flow.
1658
1659* Signature filters.
1660  The hardware checks a match between a hash-based signature of the masked fields of the received packet.
1661
1662* Perfect-mac-vlan match filters.
1663  The hardware checks a match between the masked fields of the received packets and the programmed filters.
1664  The masked fields are for MAC VLAN flow.
1665
1666* Perfect-tunnel match filters.
1667  The hardware checks a match between the masked fields of the received packets and the programmed filters.
1668  The masked fields are for tunnel flow.
1669
1670The Flow Director filters can match the different fields for different type of packet: flow type, specific input set
1671per flow type and the flexible payload.
1672
1673The Flow Director can also mask out parts of all of these fields so that filters
1674are only applied to certain fields or parts of the fields.
1675
1676Different NICs may have different capabilities, command show port fdir (port_id) can be used to acquire the information.
