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

94
95* At run-time additional commands can be loaded in bulk by invoking the ``load FILENAME``
96  command.
97
98.. code-block:: console
99
100   testpmd> load /home/ubuntu/flow-create-commands.txt

108   testpmd>
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.

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 -------
349     RX-packets: 274293770      TX-packets: 274293642      TX-dropped: 128
350
351     ------- Forward Stats for RX Port= 1/Queue= 0 -> TX Port= 0/Queue= 0 -------
352     RX-packets: 274301850      TX-packets: 274301850      TX-dropped: 0

520Configuration Functions
521-----------------------
522
523The testpmd application can be configured from the runtime as well as from the command-line.
524
525This section details the available configuration functions that are available.
526
527.. note::
528
529   Configuration changes only become active when forwarding is started/restarted.
530
531set default
532~~~~~~~~~~~
533
534Reset forwarding to the default configuration::
535
536   testpmd> set default
537
538set verbose
539~~~~~~~~~~~
540
541Set the debug verbosity level::
542
543   testpmd> set verbose (level)
544
545Available levels are as following:
546
547* ``0`` silent except for error.
548* ``1`` fully verbose except for Tx packets.
549* ``2`` fully verbose except for Rx packets.
550* ``> 2`` fully verbose.
551
552set log
553~~~~~~~
554
555Set the log level for a log type::
556
557	testpmd> set log global|(type) (level)
558
559Where:
560
561* ``type`` is the log name.
562
563* ``level`` is the log level.
564
565For example, to change the global log level::
566
567	testpmd> set log global (level)
568
569Regexes can also be used for type. To change log level of user1, user2 and user3::
570
571	testpmd> set log user[1-3] (level)
572
573set nbport
574~~~~~~~~~~
575
576Set the number of ports used by the application:
577
578set nbport (num)
579
580This is equivalent to the ``--nb-ports`` command-line option.
581
582set nbcore
583~~~~~~~~~~
584
585Set the number of cores used by the application::
586
587   testpmd> set nbcore (num)
588
589This is equivalent to the ``--nb-cores`` command-line option.
590
591.. note::
592
593   The number of cores used must not be greater than number of ports used multiplied by the number of queues per port.
594
595set coremask
596~~~~~~~~~~~~
597
598Set the forwarding cores hexadecimal mask::
599
600   testpmd> set coremask (mask)
601
602This is equivalent to the ``--coremask`` command-line option.
603
604.. note::
605
606   The master lcore is reserved for command line parsing only and cannot be masked on for packet forwarding.
607
608set portmask

972
973csum set
974~~~~~~~~
975
976Select hardware or software calculation of the checksum when

978
979   testpmd> csum set (ip|udp|tcp|sctp|outer-ip|outer-udp) (hw|sw) (port_id)
980
981Where:
982
983* ``ip|udp|tcp|sctp`` always relate to  the inner layer.
984
985* ``outer-ip`` relates to the outer IP layer (only for IPv4) in the case where the packet is recognized
986  as a tunnel packet by the forwarding engine (vxlan, gre and ipip are
987  supported). See also the ``csum parse-tunnel`` command.
988
989* ``outer-udp`` relates to the outer UDP layer in the case where the packet is recognized
990  as a tunnel packet by the forwarding engine (vxlan, vxlan-gpe are
991  supported). See also the ``csum parse-tunnel`` command.
992
993.. note::
994
995   Check the NIC Datasheet for hardware limits.

1004
1005Set flowtype mapping on a RSS queue region on a port::
1006
1007   testpmd> set port (port_id) queue-region region_id (value) flowtype (value)
1008
1009where:
1010
1011* For the flowtype(pctype) of packet,the specific index for each type has

1019
1020   testpmd> set port (port_id) queue-region flush (on|off)
1021
1022where:
1023
1024* ``on``: is just an enable function which server for other configuration,
1025  it is for all configuration about queue region from up layer,
1026  at first will only keep in DPDK software stored in driver,
1027  only after "flush on", it commit all configuration to HW.
1028
1029* ``"off``: is just clean all configuration about queue region just now,
1030  and restore all to DPDK i40e driver default config when start up.
1031
1032Show all queue region related configuration info on a port::
1033
1034   testpmd> show port (port_id) queue-region
1035
1036.. note::
1037
1038  Queue region only support on PF by now, so these command is
1039  only for configuration of queue region on PF port.
1040
1041csum parse-tunnel
1042~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1043
1044Define how tunneled packets should be handled by the csum forward
1045engine::
1046
1047   testpmd> csum parse-tunnel (on|off) (tx_port_id)
1048
1049If enabled, the csum forward engine will try to recognize supported
1050tunnel headers (vxlan, gre, ipip).
1051
1052If disabled, treat tunnel packets as non-tunneled packets (a inner
1053header is handled as a packet payload).
1054
1055.. note::
1056
1057   The port argument is the TX port like in the ``csum set`` command.
1058
1059Example:
1060
1061Consider a packet in packet like the following::
1062
1063   eth_out/ipv4_out/udp_out/vxlan/eth_in/ipv4_in/tcp_in
1064
1065* If parse-tunnel is enabled, the ``ip|udp|tcp|sctp`` parameters of ``csum set``
1066  command relate to the inner headers (here ``ipv4_in`` and ``tcp_in``), and the
1067  ``outer-ip|outer-udp`` parameter relates to the outer headers (here ``ipv4_out`` and ``udp_out``).
1068
1069* If parse-tunnel is disabled, the ``ip|udp|tcp|sctp`` parameters of ``csum  set``
1070   command relate to the outer headers, here ``ipv4_out`` and ``udp_out``.
1071
1072csum show
1073~~~~~~~~~
1074
1075Display tx checksum offload configuration::
1076
1077   testpmd> csum show (port_id)
1078
1079tso set
1080~~~~~~~
1081
1082Enable TCP Segmentation Offload (TSO) in the ``csum`` forwarding engine::
1083
1084   testpmd> tso set (segsize) (port_id)
1085
1086.. note::
1087
1088   Check the NIC datasheet for hardware limits.
1089
1090tso show
1091~~~~~~~~
1092
1093Display the status of TCP Segmentation Offload::
1094
1095   testpmd> tso show (port_id)
1096
1097tunnel tso set
1098~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1099
1100Set tso segment size of tunneled packets for a port in csum engine::
1101
1102   testpmd> tunnel_tso set (tso_segsz) (port_id)
1103
1104tunnel tso show
1105~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1106
1107Display the status of tunneled TCP Segmentation Offload for a port::
1108
1109   testpmd> tunnel_tso show (port_id)
1110
1111set port - gro
1112~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1113
1114Enable or disable GRO in ``csum`` forwarding engine::
1115
1116   testpmd> set port <port_id> gro on|off
1117
1118If enabled, the csum forwarding engine will perform GRO on the TCP/IPv4
1119packets received from the given port.
1120
1121If disabled, packets received from the given port won't be performed
1122GRO. By default, GRO is disabled for all ports.
1123
1124.. note::
1125
1126   When enable GRO for a port, TCP/IPv4 packets received from the port
1127   will be performed GRO. After GRO, all merged packets have bad
1128   checksums, since the GRO library doesn't re-calculate checksums for
1129   the merged packets. Therefore, if users want the merged packets to
1130   have correct checksums, please select HW IP checksum calculation and
1131   HW TCP checksum calculation for the port which the merged packets are
1132   transmitted to.
1133
1134show port - gro
1135~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1136
1137Display GRO configuration for a given port::
1138
1139   testpmd> show port <port_id> gro
1140
1141set gro flush
1142~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1143
1144Set the cycle to flush the GROed packets from reassembly tables::
1145
1146   testpmd> set gro flush <cycles>
1147
1148When enable GRO, the csum forwarding engine performs GRO on received
1149packets, and the GROed packets are stored in reassembly tables. Users
1150can use this command to determine when the GROed packets are flushed
1151from the reassembly tables.
1152
1153The ``cycles`` is measured in GRO operation times. The csum forwarding
1154engine flushes the GROed packets from the tables every ``cycles`` GRO
1155operations.
1156
1157By default, the value of ``cycles`` is 1, which means flush GROed packets
1158from the reassembly tables as soon as one GRO operation finishes. The value
1159of ``cycles`` should be in the range of 1 to ``GRO_MAX_FLUSH_CYCLES``.
1160
1161Please note that the large value of ``cycles`` may cause the poor TCP/IP
1162stack performance. Because the GROed packets are delayed to arrive the
1163stack, thus causing more duplicated ACKs and TCP retransmissions.
1164
1165set port - gso
1166~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1167
1168Toggle per-port GSO support in ``csum`` forwarding engine::
1169
1170   testpmd> set port <port_id> gso on|off
1171
1172If enabled, the csum forwarding engine will perform GSO on supported IPv4
1173packets, transmitted on the given port.
1174
1175If disabled, packets transmitted on the given port will not undergo GSO.
1176By default, GSO is disabled for all ports.
1177
1178.. note::
1179
1180   When GSO is enabled on a port, supported IPv4 packets transmitted on that
1181   port undergo GSO. Afterwards, the segmented packets are represented by
1182   multi-segment mbufs; however, the csum forwarding engine doesn't calculation
1183   of checksums for GSO'd segments in SW. As a result, if users want correct
1184   checksums in GSO segments, they should enable HW checksum calculation for
1185   GSO-enabled ports.
1186
1187   For example, HW checksum calculation for VxLAN GSO'd packets may be enabled
1188   by setting the following options in the csum forwarding engine:
1189

1196   UDP GSO is the same as IP fragmentation, which treats the UDP header
1197   as the payload and does not modify it during segmentation. That is,
1198   after UDP GSO, only the first output fragment has the original UDP
1199   header. Therefore, users need to enable HW IP checksum calculation
1200   and SW UDP checksum calculation for GSO-enabled ports, if they want
1201   correct checksums for UDP/IPv4 packets.

1818Port Functions
1819--------------
1820
1821The following sections show functions for configuring ports.
1822
1823.. note::
1824
1825   Port configuration changes only become active when forwarding is started/restarted.
1826
1827port attach
1828~~~~~~~~~~~
1829
1830Attach a port specified by pci address or virtual device args::
1831
1832   testpmd> port attach (identifier)
1833
1834To attach a new pci device, the device should be recognized by kernel first.
1835Then it should be moved under DPDK management.
1836Finally the port can be attached to testpmd.
1837
1838For example, to move a pci device using ixgbe under DPDK management:
1839
1840.. code-block:: console
1841
1842   # Check the status of the available devices.
1843   ./usertools/dpdk-devbind.py --status
1844
1845   Network devices using DPDK-compatible driver
1846   ============================================
1847   <none>
1848
1849   Network devices using kernel driver
1850   ===================================
1851   0000:0a:00.0 '82599ES 10-Gigabit' if=eth2 drv=ixgbe unused=
1852
1853
1854   # Bind the device to igb_uio.
1855   sudo ./usertools/dpdk-devbind.py -b igb_uio 0000:0a:00.0
1856
1857
1858   # Recheck the status of the devices.
1859   ./usertools/dpdk-devbind.py --status
1860   Network devices using DPDK-compatible driver
1861   ============================================
1862   0000:0a:00.0 '82599ES 10-Gigabit' drv=igb_uio unused=
1863
1864To attach a port created by virtual device, above steps are not needed.
1865
1866For example, to attach a port whose pci address is 0000:0a:00.0.
1867
1868.. code-block:: console
1869
1870   testpmd> port attach 0000:0a:00.0
1871   Attaching a new port...
1872   EAL: PCI device 0000:0a:00.0 on NUMA socket -1
1873   EAL:   probe driver: 8086:10fb rte_ixgbe_pmd
1874   EAL:   PCI memory mapped at 0x7f83bfa00000
1875   EAL:   PCI memory mapped at 0x7f83bfa80000
1876   PMD: eth_ixgbe_dev_init(): MAC: 2, PHY: 18, SFP+: 5
1877   PMD: eth_ixgbe_dev_init(): port 0 vendorID=0x8086 deviceID=0x10fb
1878   Port 0 is attached. Now total ports is 1
1879   Done
1880
1881For example, to attach a port created by pcap PMD.
1882
1883.. code-block:: console
1884
1885   testpmd> port attach net_pcap0
1886   Attaching a new port...
1887   PMD: Initializing pmd_pcap for net_pcap0
1888   PMD: Creating pcap-backed ethdev on numa socket 0
1889   Port 0 is attached. Now total ports is 1
1890   Done
1891
1892In this case, identifier is ``net_pcap0``.
1893This identifier format is the same as ``--vdev`` format of DPDK applications.
1894
1895For example, to re-attach a bonded port which has been previously detached,
1896the mode and slave parameters must be given.
1897
1898.. code-block:: console
1899
1900   testpmd> port attach net_bond_0,mode=0,slave=1
1901   Attaching a new port...
1902   EAL: Initializing pmd_bond for net_bond_0
1903   EAL: Create bonded device net_bond_0 on port 0 in mode 0 on socket 0.
1904   Port 0 is attached. Now total ports is 1
1905   Done
1906
1907
1908port detach
1909~~~~~~~~~~~
1910
1911Detach a specific port::
1912
1913   testpmd> port detach (port_id)
1914
1915Before detaching a port, the port should be stopped and closed.
1916
1917For example, to detach a pci device port 0.
1918
1919.. code-block:: console
1920
1921   testpmd> port stop 0
1922   Stopping ports...
1923   Done
1924   testpmd> port close 0
1925   Closing ports...
1926   Done
1927
1928   testpmd> port detach 0
1929   Detaching a port...
1930   EAL: PCI device 0000:0a:00.0 on NUMA socket -1
1931   EAL:   remove driver: 8086:10fb rte_ixgbe_pmd
1932   EAL:   PCI memory unmapped at 0x7f83bfa00000
1933   EAL:   PCI memory unmapped at 0x7f83bfa80000
1934   Done
1935
1936
1937For example, to detach a virtual device port 0.
1938
1939.. code-block:: console
1940
1941   testpmd> port stop 0
1942   Stopping ports...
1943   Done
1944   testpmd> port close 0
1945   Closing ports...
1946   Done
1947
1948   testpmd> port detach 0
1949   Detaching a port...
1950   PMD: Closing pcap ethdev on numa socket 0
1951   Port 'net_pcap0' is detached. Now total ports is 0
1952   Done
1953
1954To remove a pci device completely from the system, first detach the port from testpmd.
1955Then the device should be moved under kernel management.
1956Finally the device can be removed using kernel pci hotplug functionality.
1957
1958For example, to move a pci device under kernel management:
1959
1960.. code-block:: console
1961
1962   sudo ./usertools/dpdk-devbind.py -b ixgbe 0000:0a:00.0
1963
1964   ./usertools/dpdk-devbind.py --status
1965
1966   Network devices using DPDK-compatible driver

2314
2315   testpmd> add bonding slave (slave id) (port id)
2316
2317For example, to add Ethernet device (port 6) to a Link Bonding device (port 10)::
2318
2319   testpmd> add bonding slave 6 10
2320
2321
2322remove bonding slave
2323~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
2324
2325Removes an Ethernet slave device from a Link Bonding device::
2326
2327   testpmd> remove bonding slave (slave id) (port id)
2328
2329For example, to remove Ethernet slave device (port 6) to a Link Bonding device (port 10)::

3183.. _testpmd_flow_director:
3184
3185flow_director_filter
3186~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
3187
3188The Flow Director works in receive mode to identify specific flows or sets of flows and route them to specific queues.
3189
3190Four types of filtering are supported which are referred to as Perfect Match, Signature, Perfect-mac-vlan and
3191Perfect-tunnel filters, the match mode is set by the ``--pkt-filter-mode`` command-line parameter:
3192
3193* Perfect match filters.
3194  The hardware checks a match between the masked fields of the received packets and the programmed filters.
3195  The masked fields are for IP flow.
3196
3197* Signature filters.
3198  The hardware checks a match between a hash-based signature of the masked fields of the received packet.
3199
3200* Perfect-mac-vlan match filters.
3201  The hardware checks a match between the masked fields of the received packets and the programmed filters.
3202  The masked fields are for MAC VLAN flow.
3203
3204* Perfect-tunnel match filters.
3205  The hardware checks a match between the masked fields of the received packets and the programmed filters.
3206  The masked fields are for tunnel flow.
3207
3208* Perfect-raw-flow-type match filters.
3209  The hardware checks a match between the masked fields of the received packets and pre-loaded raw (template) packet.
3210  The masked fields are specified by input sets.
3211
3212The Flow Director filters can match the different fields for different type of packet: flow type, specific input set
3213per flow type and the flexible payload.
3214
3215The Flow Director can also mask out parts of all of these fields so that filters
3216are only applied to certain fields or parts of the fields.
3217
3218Note that for raw flow type mode the source and destination fields in the
3219raw packet buffer need to be presented in a reversed order with respect
3220to the expected received packets.
3221For example: IP source and destination addresses or TCP/UDP/SCTP
3222source and destination ports
3223
3224Different NICs may have different capabilities, command show port fdir (port_id) can be used to acquire the information.

3443.. _testpmd_rte_flow:
3444
3445Flow rules management
3446---------------------
3447
3448Control of the generic flow API (*rte_flow*) is fully exposed through the
3449``flow`` command (validation, creation, destruction, queries and operation
3450modes).
3451
3452Considering *rte_flow* overlaps with all `Filter Functions`_, using both
3453features simultaneously may cause undefined side-effects and is therefore
3454not recommended.
3455
3456``flow`` syntax
3457~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
3458
3459Because the ``flow`` command uses dynamic tokens to handle the large number
3460of possible flow rules combinations, its behavior differs slightly from
3461other commands, in particular:
3462
3463- Pressing *?* or the *<tab>* key displays contextual help for the current
3464  token, not that of the entire command.
3465
3466- Optional and repeated parameters are supported (provided they are listed
3467  in the contextual help).
3468
3469The first parameter stands for the operation mode. Possible operations and
3470their general syntax are described below. They are covered in detail in the
3471following sections.
3472
3473- Check whether a flow rule can be created::
3474
3475   flow validate {port_id}
3476       [group {group_id}] [priority {level}] [ingress] [egress] [transfer]
3477       pattern {item} [/ {item} [...]] / end
3478       actions {action} [/ {action} [...]] / end
3479
3480- Create a flow rule::
3481
3482   flow create {port_id}
3483       [group {group_id}] [priority {level}] [ingress] [egress] [transfer]
3484       pattern {item} [/ {item} [...]] / end
3485       actions {action} [/ {action} [...]] / end
3486
3487- Destroy specific flow rules::
3488
3489   flow destroy {port_id} rule {rule_id} [...]
3490
3491- Destroy all flow rules::
3492
3493   flow flush {port_id}
3494
3495- Query an existing flow rule::
3496
3497   flow query {port_id} {rule_id} {action}
3498
3499- List existing flow rules sorted by priority, filtered by group
3500  identifiers::
3501
3502   flow list {port_id} [group {group_id}] [...]
3503
3504- Restrict ingress traffic to the defined flow rules::
3505
3506   flow isolate {port_id} {boolean}
3507
3508Validating flow rules
3509~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
3510
3511``flow validate`` reports whether a flow rule would be accepted by the
3512underlying device in its current state but stops short of creating it. It is
3513bound to ``rte_flow_validate()``::
3514
3515   flow validate {port_id}
3516      [group {group_id}] [priority {level}] [ingress] [egress] [transfer]
3517      pattern {item} [/ {item} [...]] / end
3518      actions {action} [/ {action} [...]] / end
3519
3520If successful, it will show::
3521
3522   Flow rule validated
3523
3524Otherwise it will show an error message of the form::
3525
3526   Caught error type [...] ([...]): [...]
3527
3528This command uses the same parameters as ``flow create``, their format is
3529described in `Creating flow rules`_.
3530
3531Check whether redirecting any Ethernet packet received on port 0 to RX queue
3532index 6 is supported::
3533
3534   testpmd> flow validate 0 ingress pattern eth / end
3535      actions queue index 6 / end
3536   Flow rule validated
3537   testpmd>
3538
3539Port 0 does not support TCPv6 rules::
3540
3541   testpmd> flow validate 0 ingress pattern eth / ipv6 / tcp / end
3542      actions drop / end
3543   Caught error type 9 (specific pattern item): Invalid argument
3544   testpmd>
3545
3546Creating flow rules
3547~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
3548
3549``flow create`` validates and creates the specified flow rule. It is bound
3550to ``rte_flow_create()``::
3551
3552   flow create {port_id}
3553      [group {group_id}] [priority {level}] [ingress] [egress] [transfer]
3554      pattern {item} [/ {item} [...]] / end
3555      actions {action} [/ {action} [...]] / end
3556
3557If successful, it will return a flow rule ID usable with other commands::
3558
3559   Flow rule #[...] created
3560
3561Otherwise it will show an error message of the form::
3562
3563   Caught error type [...] ([...]): [...]
3564
3565Parameters describe in the following order:
3566
3567- Attributes (*group*, *priority*, *ingress*, *egress*, *transfer* tokens).
3568- A matching pattern, starting with the *pattern* token and terminated by an
3569  *end* pattern item.
3570- Actions, starting with the *actions* token and terminated by an *end*
3571  action.
3572
3573These translate directly to *rte_flow* objects provided as-is to the
3574underlying functions.
3575
3576The shortest valid definition only comprises mandatory tokens::
3577
3578   testpmd> flow create 0 pattern end actions end
3579
3580Note that PMDs may refuse rules that essentially do nothing such as this
3581one.
3582
3583**All unspecified object values are automatically initialized to 0.**
3584
3585Attributes
3586^^^^^^^^^^
3587
3588These tokens affect flow rule attributes (``struct rte_flow_attr``) and are
3589specified before the ``pattern`` token.
3590
3591- ``group {group id}``: priority group.
3592- ``priority {level}``: priority level within group.
3593- ``ingress``: rule applies to ingress traffic.
3594- ``egress``: rule applies to egress traffic.
3595- ``transfer``: apply rule directly to endpoints found in pattern.
3596
3597Each instance of an attribute specified several times overrides the previous
3598value as shown below (group 4 is used)::
3599
3600   testpmd> flow create 0 group 42 group 24 group 4 [...]
3601
3602Note that once enabled, ``ingress`` and ``egress`` cannot be disabled.
3603
3604While not specifying a direction is an error, some rules may allow both
3605simultaneously.
3606
3607Most rules affect RX therefore contain the ``ingress`` token::
3608
3609   testpmd> flow create 0 ingress pattern [...]
3610
3611Matching pattern
3612^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
3613
3614A matching pattern starts after the ``pattern`` token. It is made of pattern
3615items and is terminated by a mandatory ``end`` item.
3616
3617Items are named after their type (*RTE_FLOW_ITEM_TYPE_* from ``enum
3618rte_flow_item_type``).
3619
3620The ``/`` token is used as a separator between pattern items as shown
3621below::
3622
3623   testpmd> flow create 0 ingress pattern eth / ipv4 / udp / end [...]
3624
3625Note that protocol items like these must be stacked from lowest to highest
3626layer to make sense. For instance, the following rule is either invalid or
3627unlikely to match any packet::
3628
3629   testpmd> flow create 0 ingress pattern eth / udp / ipv4 / end [...]
3630
3631More information on these restrictions can be found in the *rte_flow*
3632documentation.
3633
3634Several items support additional specification structures, for example
3635``ipv4`` allows specifying source and destination addresses as follows::
3636
3637   testpmd> flow create 0 ingress pattern eth / ipv4 src is 10.1.1.1
3638      dst is 10.2.0.0 / end [...]
3639
3640This rule matches all IPv4 traffic with the specified properties.
3641
3642In this example, ``src`` and ``dst`` are field names of the underlying
3643``struct rte_flow_item_ipv4`` object. All item properties can be specified
3644in a similar fashion.
3645
3646The ``is`` token means that the subsequent value must be matched exactly,
3647and assigns ``spec`` and ``mask`` fields in ``struct rte_flow_item``
3648accordingly. Possible assignment tokens are:
3649
3650- ``is``: match value perfectly (with full bit-mask).
3651- ``spec``: match value according to configured bit-mask.
3652- ``last``: specify upper bound to establish a range.
3653- ``mask``: specify bit-mask with relevant bits set to one.
3654- ``prefix``: generate bit-mask with <prefix-length> most-significant bits set to one.
3655
3656These yield identical results::
3657
3658   ipv4 src is 10.1.1.1
3659
3660::
3661
3662   ipv4 src spec 10.1.1.1 src mask 255.255.255.255
3663
3664::
3665
3666   ipv4 src spec 10.1.1.1 src prefix 32
3667
3668::
3669
3670   ipv4 src is 10.1.1.1 src last 10.1.1.1 # range with a single value
3671
3672::
3673
3674   ipv4 src is 10.1.1.1 src last 0 # 0 disables range
3675
3676Inclusive ranges can be defined with ``last``::
3677
3678   ipv4 src is 10.1.1.1 src last 10.2.3.4 # 10.1.1.1 to 10.2.3.4
3679
3680Note that ``mask`` affects both ``spec`` and ``last``::
3681
3682   ipv4 src is 10.1.1.1 src last 10.2.3.4 src mask 255.255.0.0
3683      # matches 10.1.0.0 to 10.2.255.255

3687   ipv4 src is 10.1.1.1 src is 10.1.2.3 src is 10.2.3.4 # matches 10.2.3.4
3688

3866Actions list
3867^^^^^^^^^^^^
3868
3869A list of actions starts after the ``actions`` token in the same fashion as
3870`Matching pattern`_; actions are separated by ``/`` tokens and the list is
3871terminated by a mandatory ``end`` action.
3872
3873Actions are named after their type (*RTE_FLOW_ACTION_TYPE_* from ``enum
3874rte_flow_action_type``).
3875
3876Dropping all incoming UDPv4 packets can be expressed as follows::
3877
3878   testpmd> flow create 0 ingress pattern eth / ipv4 / udp / end
3879      actions drop / end
3880
3881Several actions have configurable properties which must be specified when
3882there is no valid default value. For example, ``queue`` requires a target
3883queue index.
3884
3885This rule redirects incoming UDPv4 traffic to queue index 6::
3886
3887   testpmd> flow create 0 ingress pattern eth / ipv4 / udp / end
3888      actions queue index 6 / end
3889
3890While this one could be rejected by PMDs (unspecified queue index)::
3891
3892   testpmd> flow create 0 ingress pattern eth / ipv4 / udp / end
3893      actions queue / end
3894
3895As defined by *rte_flow*, the list is not ordered, all actions of a given
3896rule are performed simultaneously. These are equivalent::
3897
3898   queue index 6 / void / mark id 42 / end
3899
3900::
3901
3902   void / mark id 42 / queue index 6 / end
3903
3904All actions in a list should have different types, otherwise only the last
3905action of a given type is taken into account::
3906
3907   queue index 4 / queue index 5 / queue index 6 / end # will use queue 6
3908
3909::
3910
3911   drop / drop / drop / end # drop is performed only once
3912
3913::
3914
3915   mark id 42 / queue index 3 / mark id 24 / end # mark will be 24
3916
3917Considering they are performed simultaneously, opposite and overlapping
3918actions can sometimes be combined when the end result is unambiguous::
3919
3920   drop / queue index 6 / end # drop has no effect
3921
3922::
3923
3924   queue index 6 / rss queues 6 7 8 / end # queue has no effect
3925
3926::
3927
3928   drop / passthru / end # drop has no effect
3929
3930Note that PMDs may still refuse such combinations.

4125Destroying flow rules
4126~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
4127
4128``flow destroy`` destroys one or more rules from their rule ID (as returned
4129by ``flow create``), this command calls ``rte_flow_destroy()`` as many
4130times as necessary::
4131
4132   flow destroy {port_id} rule {rule_id} [...]
4133
4134If successful, it will show::
4135
4136   Flow rule #[...] destroyed
4137
4138It does not report anything for rule IDs that do not exist. The usual error
4139message is shown when a rule cannot be destroyed::
4140
4141   Caught error type [...] ([...]): [...]
4142
4143``flow flush`` destroys all rules on a device and does not take extra
4144arguments. It is bound to ``rte_flow_flush()``::
4145
4146   flow flush {port_id}
4147
4148Any errors are reported as above.
4149
4150Creating several rules and destroying them::
4151
4152   testpmd> flow create 0 ingress pattern eth / ipv6 / end
4153      actions queue index 2 / end
4154   Flow rule #0 created
4155   testpmd> flow create 0 ingress pattern eth / ipv4 / end
4156      actions queue index 3 / end
4157   Flow rule #1 created
4158   testpmd> flow destroy 0 rule 0 rule 1
4159   Flow rule #1 destroyed
4160   Flow rule #0 destroyed
4161   testpmd>
4162
4163The same result can be achieved using ``flow flush``::
4164
4165   testpmd> flow create 0 ingress pattern eth / ipv6 / end
4166      actions queue index 2 / end
4167   Flow rule #0 created
4168   testpmd> flow create 0 ingress pattern eth / ipv4 / end
4169      actions queue index 3 / end
4170   Flow rule #1 created
4171   testpmd> flow flush 0
4172   testpmd>
4173
4174Non-existent rule IDs are ignored::
4175
4176   testpmd> flow create 0 ingress pattern eth / ipv6 / end
4177      actions queue index 2 / end
4178   Flow rule #0 created
4179   testpmd> flow create 0 ingress pattern eth / ipv4 / end
4180      actions queue index 3 / end
4181   Flow rule #1 created
4182   testpmd> flow destroy 0 rule 42 rule 10 rule 2
4183   testpmd>
4184   testpmd> flow destroy 0 rule 0
4185   Flow rule #0 destroyed
4186   testpmd>
4187
4188Querying flow rules
4189~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
4190
4191``flow query`` queries a specific action of a flow rule having that
4192ability. Such actions collect information that can be reported using this
4193command. It is bound to ``rte_flow_query()``::
4194
4195   flow query {port_id} {rule_id} {action}
4196
4197If successful, it will display either the retrieved data for known actions
4198or the following message::
4199
4200   Cannot display result for action type [...] ([...])
4201
4202Otherwise, it will complain either that the rule does not exist or that some
4203error occurred::

4210
4211Currently only the ``count`` action is supported. This action reports the
4212number of packets that hit the flow rule and the total number of bytes. Its
4213output has the following format::
4214
4215   count:
4216    hits_set: [...] # whether "hits" contains a valid value
4217    bytes_set: [...] # whether "bytes" contains a valid value
4218    hits: [...] # number of packets
4219    bytes: [...] # number of bytes

4234Listing flow rules
4235~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
4236
4237``flow list`` lists existing flow rules sorted by priority and optionally
4238filtered by group identifiers::
4239
4240   flow list {port_id} [group {group_id}] [...]
4241
4242This command only fails with the following message if the device does not
4243exist::
4244
4245   Invalid port [...]
4246
4247Output consists of a header line followed by a short description of each
4248flow rule, one per line. There is no output at all when no flow rules are
4249configured on the device::
4250
4251   ID      Group   Prio    Attr    Rule
4252   [...]   [...]   [...]   [...]   [...]
4253
4254``Attr`` column flags:
4255
4256- ``i`` for ``ingress``.
4257- ``e`` for ``egress``.
4258
4259Creating several flow rules and listing them::
4260
4261   testpmd> flow create 0 ingress pattern eth / ipv4 / end
4262      actions queue index 6 / end
4263   Flow rule #0 created
4264   testpmd> flow create 0 ingress pattern eth / ipv6 / end
4265      actions queue index 2 / end
4266   Flow rule #1 created
4267   testpmd> flow create 0 priority 5 ingress pattern eth / ipv4 / udp / end
4268      actions rss queues 6 7 8 end / end
4269   Flow rule #2 created
4270   testpmd> flow list 0
4271   ID      Group   Prio    Attr    Rule

4275   testpmd>
4276
4277Rules are sorted by priority (i.e. group ID first, then priority level)::
4278
4279   testpmd> flow list 1
4280   ID      Group   Prio    Attr    Rule
4281   0       0       0       i-      ETH => COUNT

4289   testpmd>
4290
4291Output can be limited to specific groups::
4292
4293   testpmd> flow list 1 group 0 group 63
4294   ID      Group   Prio    Attr    Rule

4301Toggling isolated mode
4302~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
4303
4304``flow isolate`` can be used to tell the underlying PMD that ingress traffic
4305must only be injected from the defined flow rules; that no default traffic
4306is expected outside those rules and the driver is free to assign more
4307resources to handle them. It is bound to ``rte_flow_isolate()``::
4308
4309 flow isolate {port_id} {boolean}
4310
4311If successful, enabling or disabling isolated mode shows either::
4312
4313 Ingress traffic on port [...]
4314    is now restricted to the defined flow rules
4315
4316Or::
4317
4318 Ingress traffic on port [...]
4319    is not restricted anymore to the defined flow rules
4320
4321Otherwise, in case of error::
4322
4323   Caught error type [...] ([...]): [...]
4324
4325Mainly due to its side effects, PMDs supporting this mode may not have the
4326ability to toggle it more than once without reinitializing affected ports
4327first (e.g. by exiting testpmd).
4328
4329Enabling isolated mode::
4330
4331 testpmd> flow isolate 0 true
4332 Ingress traffic on port 0 is now restricted to the defined flow rules
4333 testpmd>
4334
4335Disabling isolated mode::
4336
4337 testpmd> flow isolate 0 false
4338 Ingress traffic on port 0 is not restricted anymore to the defined flow rules
4339 testpmd>
4340
4341Sample QinQ flow rules
4342~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
4343
4344Before creating QinQ rule(s) the following commands should be issued to enable QinQ::
4345
4346   testpmd> port stop 0
4347   testpmd> vlan set qinq on 0
4348
4349The above command sets the inner and outer TPID's to 0x8100.
4350
4351To change the TPID's the following commands should be used::
4352
4353   testpmd> vlan set outer tpid 0xa100 0
4354   testpmd> vlan set inner tpid 0x9100 0
4355   testpmd> port start 0
4356
4357Validate and create a QinQ rule on port 0 to steer traffic to a VF queue in a VM.
4358
4359::
4360
4361   testpmd> flow validate 0 ingress pattern eth / vlan tci is 123 /
4362       vlan tci is 456 / end actions vf id 1 / queue index 0 / end
4363   Flow rule #0 validated
4364
4365   testpmd> flow create 0 ingress pattern eth / vlan tci is 4 /
4366       vlan tci is 456 / end actions vf id 123 / queue index 0 / end
4367   Flow rule #0 created

4372
4373Validate and create a QinQ rule on port 0 to steer traffic to a queue on the host.
4374

4376
4377   testpmd> flow validate 0 ingress pattern eth / vlan tci is 321 /

4609Sample MPLSoUDP decapsulation rule
4610~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
4611
4612MPLSoUDP decapsulation outer layer has default value pre-configured in testpmd
4613source code, those can be changed by using the following commands
4614
4615IPv4 MPLSoUDP outer header::
4616
4617 testpmd> set mplsoudp_decap ip-version ipv4
4618 testpmd> flow create 0 ingress pattern eth / ipv4 / udp / mpls / end actions
4619        mplsoudp_decap / l2_encap / end
4620
4621IPv4 MPLSoUDP with VLAN outer header::
4622
4623 testpmd> set mplsoudp_decap-with-vlan ip-version ipv4
4624 testpmd> flow create 0 ingress pattern eth / vlan / ipv4 / udp / mpls / end
4625        actions mplsoudp_decap / l2_encap / end
4626
4627IPv6 MPLSoUDP outer header::
4628
4629 testpmd> set mplsoudp_decap ip-version ipv6
4630 testpmd> flow create 0 ingress pattern eth / ipv6 / udp / mpls / end
4631        actions mplsoudp_decap / l2_encap / end
4632
4633IPv6 MPLSoUDP with VLAN outer header::
4634
4635 testpmd> set mplsoudp_decap-with-vlan ip-version ipv6
4636 testpmd> flow create 0 ingress pattern eth / vlan / ipv6 / udp / mpls / end
4637        actions mplsoudp_decap / l2_encap / end

4639BPF Functions
4640--------------
4641
4642The following sections show functions to load/unload eBPF based filters.
4643
4644bpf-load
4645~~~~~~~~
4646
4647Load an eBPF program as a callback for particular RX/TX queue::
4648
4649   testpmd> bpf-load rx|tx (portid) (queueid) (load-flags) (bpf-prog-filename)
4650
4651The available load-flags are:
4652
4653* ``J``: use JIT generated native code, otherwise BPF interpreter will be used.
4654
4655* ``M``: assume input parameter is a pointer to rte_mbuf, otherwise assume it is a pointer to first segment's data.
4656
4657* ``-``: none.
4658
4659.. note::
4660
4661   You'll need clang v3.7 or above to build bpf program you'd like to load
4662
4663For example:
4664
4665.. code-block:: console
4666
4667   cd examples/bpf
4668   clang -O2 -target bpf -c t1.c
4669
4670Then to load (and JIT compile) t1.o at RX queue 0, port 1:
4671
4672.. code-block:: console
4673
4674   testpmd> bpf-load rx 1 0 J ./dpdk.org/examples/bpf/t1.o
4675
4676To load (not JITed) t1.o at TX queue 0, port 0:
4677
4678.. code-block:: console
4679
4680   testpmd> bpf-load tx 0 0 - ./dpdk.org/examples/bpf/t1.o
4681
4682bpf-unload
4683~~~~~~~~~~
4684
4685Unload previously loaded eBPF program for particular RX/TX queue::
4686
4687   testpmd> bpf-unload rx|tx (portid) (queueid)
4688
4689For example to unload BPF filter from TX queue 0, port 0:
4690
4691.. code-block:: console
4692
4693   testpmd> bpf-unload tx 0 0
