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 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.

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.

260   testpmd> show port (port_id) (rxq|txq) (queue_id) desc (desc_id) status
261
262
263show config
264~~~~~~~~~~~
265

267The configuration comes from the command-line, the runtime or the application defaults::
268
269   testpmd> show config (rxtx|cores|fwd|txpkts|txtimes)
270
271The available information categories are:

285.. code-block:: console
286
287   testpmd> show config rxtx
288
289   io packet forwarding - CRC stripping disabled - packets/burst=16
290   nb forwarding cores=2 - nb forwarding ports=1
291   RX queues=1 - RX desc=128 - RX free threshold=0
292   RX threshold registers: pthresh=8 hthresh=8 wthresh=4
293   TX queues=1 - TX desc=512 - TX free threshold=0
294   TX threshold registers: pthresh=36 hthresh=0 wthresh=0
295   TX RS bit threshold=0 - TXQ flags=0x0
296
297set fwd
298~~~~~~~
299
300Set the packet forwarding mode::
301
302   testpmd> set fwd (io|mac|macswap|flowgen| \
303                     rxonly|txonly|csum|icmpecho|noisy|5tswap) (""|retry)
304
305``retry`` can be specified for forwarding engines except ``rx_only``.
306
307The available information categories are:
308
309* ``io``: Forwards packets "as-is" in I/O mode.
310  This is the fastest possible forwarding operation as it does not access packets data.
311  This is the default mode.
312
313* ``mac``: Changes the source and the destination Ethernet addresses of packets before forwarding them.
314  Default application behavior is to set source Ethernet address to that of the transmitting interface, and destination
315  address to a dummy value (set during init). The user may specify a target destination Ethernet address via the 'eth-peer' or
316  'eth-peers-configfile' command-line options. It is not currently possible to specify a specific source Ethernet address.
317
318* ``macswap``: MAC swap forwarding mode.
319  Swaps the source and the destination Ethernet addresses of packets before forwarding them.
320
321* ``flowgen``: Multi-flow generation mode.
322  Originates a number of flows (with varying destination IP addresses), and terminate receive traffic.
323
324* ``rxonly``: Receives packets but doesn't transmit them.
325
326* ``txonly``: Generates and transmits packets without receiving any.
327
328* ``csum``: Changes the checksum field with hardware or software methods depending on the offload flags on the packet.
329
330* ``icmpecho``: Receives a burst of packets, lookup for ICMP echo requests and, if any, send back ICMP echo replies.
331
332* ``ieee1588``: Demonstrate L2 IEEE1588 V2 PTP timestamping for RX and TX. Requires ``CONFIG_RTE_LIBRTE_IEEE1588=y``.
333
334* ``noisy``: Noisy neighbor simulation.
335  Simulate more realistic behavior of a guest machine engaged in receiving
336  and sending packets performing Virtual Network Function (VNF).
337
338* ``5tswap``: Swap the source and destination of L2,L3,L4 if they exist.
339
340  L2 swaps the source address and destination address of Ethernet, as same as ``macswap``.
341
342  L3 swaps the source address and destination address of IP (v4 and v6).
343
344  L4 swaps the source port and destination port of transport layer (TCP and UDP).
345
346Example::
347
348   testpmd> set fwd rxonly
349
350   Set rxonly packet forwarding mode
351
352
353show fwd
354~~~~~~~~
355
356When running, forwarding engines maintain statistics from the time they have been started.

616Configuration Functions
617-----------------------
618
619The testpmd application can be configured from the runtime as well as from the command-line.
620
621This section details the available configuration functions that are available.
622
623.. note::
624
625   Configuration changes only become active when forwarding is started/restarted.
626
627set default
628~~~~~~~~~~~
629
630Reset forwarding to the default configuration::
631
632   testpmd> set default
633
634set verbose
635~~~~~~~~~~~
636
637Set the debug verbosity level::
638
639   testpmd> set verbose (level)
640
641Available levels are as following:
642
643* ``0`` silent except for error.
644* ``1`` fully verbose except for Tx packets.
645* ``2`` fully verbose except for Rx packets.
646* ``> 2`` fully verbose.
647
648set log
649~~~~~~~
650
651Set the log level for a log type::
652
653	testpmd> set log global|(type) (level)
654
655Where:
656
657* ``type`` is the log name.
658
659* ``level`` is the log level.
660
661For example, to change the global log level::
662
663	testpmd> set log global (level)
664
665Regexes can also be used for type. To change log level of user1, user2 and user3::
666
667	testpmd> set log user[1-3] (level)
668
669set nbport
670~~~~~~~~~~
671
672Set the number of ports used by the application:
673
674set nbport (num)
675
676This is equivalent to the ``--nb-ports`` command-line option.
677
678set nbcore
679~~~~~~~~~~
680
681Set the number of cores used by the application::
682
683   testpmd> set nbcore (num)
684
685This is equivalent to the ``--nb-cores`` command-line option.
686
687.. note::
688
689   The number of cores used must not be greater than number of ports used multiplied by the number of queues per port.
690
691set coremask
692~~~~~~~~~~~~
693
694Set the forwarding cores hexadecimal mask::
695
696   testpmd> set coremask (mask)
697
698This is equivalent to the ``--coremask`` command-line option.
699
700.. note::
701
702   The master lcore is reserved for command line parsing only and cannot be masked on for packet forwarding.
703
704set portmask
705~~~~~~~~~~~~
706
707Set the forwarding ports hexadecimal mask::
708
709   testpmd> set portmask (mask)
710
711This is equivalent to the ``--portmask`` command-line option.
712
713set record-core-cycles
714~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
715
716Set the recording of CPU cycles::
717
718   testpmd> set record-core-cycles (on|off)
719
720Where:
721
722* ``on`` enables measurement of CPU cycles per packet.
723
724* ``off`` disables measurement of CPU cycles per packet.
725
726This is equivalent to the ``--record-core-cycles command-line`` option.
727
728set burst
729~~~~~~~~~
730
731Set number of packets per burst::
732
733   testpmd> set burst (num)
734
735This is equivalent to the ``--burst command-line`` option.
736
737When retry is enabled, the transmit delay time and number of retries can also be set::
738
739   testpmd> set burst tx delay (microseconds) retry (num)
740
741set txpkts
742~~~~~~~~~~
743
744Set the length of each segment of the TX-ONLY packets or length of packet for FLOWGEN mode::
745
746   testpmd> set txpkts (x[,y]*)
747
748Where x[,y]* represents a CSV list of values, without white space.
749
750set txtimes
751~~~~~~~~~~~
752
753Configure the timing burst pattern for Tx only mode. This command enables
754the packet send scheduling on dynamic timestamp mbuf field and configures
755timing pattern in Tx only mode. In this mode, if scheduling is enabled
756application provides timestamps in the packets being sent. It is possible
757to configure delay (in unspecified device clock units) between bursts
758and between the packets within the burst::
759
760   testpmd> set txtimes (inter),(intra)
761
762where:
763
764* ``inter``  is the delay between the bursts in the device clock units.
765  If ``intra`` is zero, this is the time between the beginnings of the
766  first packets in the neighbour bursts, if ``intra`` is not zero,
767  ``inter`` specifies the time between the beginning of the first packet
768  of the current burst and the beginning of the last packet of the
769  previous burst. If ``inter`` parameter is zero the send scheduling
770  on timestamps is disabled (default).
771
772* ``intra`` is the delay between the packets within the burst specified
773  in the device clock units. The number of packets in the burst is defined
774  by regular burst setting. If ``intra`` parameter is zero no timestamps
775  provided in the packets excepting the first one in the burst.
776
777As the result the bursts of packet will be transmitted with specific
778delays between the packets within the burst and specific delay between
779the bursts. The rte_eth_read_clock() must be supported by the device(s)
780and is supposed to be engaged to get the current device clock value
781and provide the reference for the timestamps. If there is no supported
782rte_eth_read_clock() there will be no send scheduling provided on the port.
783
784set txsplit
785~~~~~~~~~~~
786
787Set the split policy for the TX packets, applicable for TX-ONLY and CSUM forwarding modes::
788
789   testpmd> set txsplit (off|on|rand)
790
791Where:
792
793* ``off`` disable packet copy & split for CSUM mode.
794
795* ``on`` split outgoing packet into multiple segments. Size of each segment
796  and number of segments per packet is determined by ``set txpkts`` command
797  (see above).
798
799* ``rand`` same as 'on', but number of segments per each packet is a random value between 1 and total number of segments.
800
801set corelist
802~~~~~~~~~~~~
803
804Set the list of forwarding cores::
805
806   testpmd> set corelist (x[,y]*)
807
808For example, to change the forwarding cores:
809
810.. code-block:: console
811
812   testpmd> set corelist 3,1
813   testpmd> show config fwd
814
815   io packet forwarding - ports=2 - cores=2 - streams=2 - NUMA support disabled
816   Logical Core 3 (socket 0) forwards packets on 1 streams:
817   RX P=0/Q=0 (socket 0) -> TX P=1/Q=0 (socket 0) peer=02:00:00:00:00:01
818   Logical Core 1 (socket 0) forwards packets on 1 streams:
819   RX P=1/Q=0 (socket 0) -> TX P=0/Q=0 (socket 0) peer=02:00:00:00:00:00
820
821.. note::
822
823   The cores are used in the same order as specified on the command line.
824
825set portlist
826~~~~~~~~~~~~
827
828Set the list of forwarding ports::
829
830   testpmd> set portlist (x[,y]*)
831
832For example, to change the port forwarding:
833
834.. code-block:: console
835
836   testpmd> set portlist 0,2,1,3
837   testpmd> show config fwd
838
839   io packet forwarding - ports=4 - cores=1 - streams=4
840   Logical Core 3 (socket 0) forwards packets on 4 streams:
841   RX P=0/Q=0 (socket 0) -> TX P=2/Q=0 (socket 0) peer=02:00:00:00:00:01
842   RX P=2/Q=0 (socket 0) -> TX P=0/Q=0 (socket 0) peer=02:00:00:00:00:00
843   RX P=1/Q=0 (socket 0) -> TX P=3/Q=0 (socket 0) peer=02:00:00:00:00:03

1112
1113* ``ip|udp|tcp|sctp`` always relate to  the inner layer.
1114
1115* ``outer-ip`` relates to the outer IP layer (only for IPv4) in the case where the packet is recognized
1116  as a tunnel packet by the forwarding engine (vxlan, gre and ipip are
1117  supported). See also the ``csum parse-tunnel`` command.
1118
1119* ``outer-udp`` relates to the outer UDP layer in the case where the packet is recognized
1120  as a tunnel packet by the forwarding engine (vxlan, vxlan-gpe are
1121  supported). See also the ``csum parse-tunnel`` command.

1174Define how tunneled packets should be handled by the csum forward
1175engine::
1176
1177   testpmd> csum parse-tunnel (on|off) (tx_port_id)
1178
1179If enabled, the csum forward engine will try to recognize supported
1180tunnel headers (vxlan, gre, ipip).
1181
1182If disabled, treat tunnel packets as non-tunneled packets (a inner
1183header is handled as a packet payload).
1184
1185.. note::
1186
1187   The port argument is the TX port like in the ``csum set`` command.
1188
1189Example:
1190
1191Consider a packet in packet like the following::
1192
1193   eth_out/ipv4_out/udp_out/vxlan/eth_in/ipv4_in/tcp_in
1194
1195* If parse-tunnel is enabled, the ``ip|udp|tcp|sctp`` parameters of ``csum set``
1196  command relate to the inner headers (here ``ipv4_in`` and ``tcp_in``), and the
1197  ``outer-ip|outer-udp`` parameter relates to the outer headers (here ``ipv4_out`` and ``udp_out``).
1198
1199* If parse-tunnel is disabled, the ``ip|udp|tcp|sctp`` parameters of ``csum  set``
1200   command relate to the outer headers, here ``ipv4_out`` and ``udp_out``.

1241set port - gro
1242~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1243
1244Enable or disable GRO in ``csum`` forwarding engine::
1245
1246   testpmd> set port <port_id> gro on|off
1247
1248If enabled, the csum forwarding engine will perform GRO on the TCP/IPv4
1249packets received from the given port.
1250
1251If disabled, packets received from the given port won't be performed
1252GRO. By default, GRO is disabled for all ports.
1253
1254.. note::
1255
1256   When enable GRO for a port, TCP/IPv4 packets received from the port
1257   will be performed GRO. After GRO, all merged packets have bad
1258   checksums, since the GRO library doesn't re-calculate checksums for
1259   the merged packets. Therefore, if users want the merged packets to
1260   have correct checksums, please select HW IP checksum calculation and
1261   HW TCP checksum calculation for the port which the merged packets are
1262   transmitted to.
1263
1264show port - gro
1265~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1266
1267Display GRO configuration for a given port::
1268
1269   testpmd> show port <port_id> gro
1270
1271set gro flush
1272~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1273
1274Set the cycle to flush the GROed packets from reassembly tables::
1275
1276   testpmd> set gro flush <cycles>
1277
1278When enable GRO, the csum forwarding engine performs GRO on received
1279packets, and the GROed packets are stored in reassembly tables. Users
1280can use this command to determine when the GROed packets are flushed
1281from the reassembly tables.
1282
1283The ``cycles`` is measured in GRO operation times. The csum forwarding
1284engine flushes the GROed packets from the tables every ``cycles`` GRO
1285operations.
1286
1287By default, the value of ``cycles`` is 1, which means flush GROed packets
1288from the reassembly tables as soon as one GRO operation finishes. The value
1289of ``cycles`` should be in the range of 1 to ``GRO_MAX_FLUSH_CYCLES``.
1290
1291Please note that the large value of ``cycles`` may cause the poor TCP/IP
1292stack performance. Because the GROed packets are delayed to arrive the
1293stack, thus causing more duplicated ACKs and TCP retransmissions.
1294
1295set port - gso
1296~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1297
1298Toggle per-port GSO support in ``csum`` forwarding engine::
1299
1300   testpmd> set port <port_id> gso on|off
1301
1302If enabled, the csum forwarding engine will perform GSO on supported IPv4
1303packets, transmitted on the given port.
1304
1305If disabled, packets transmitted on the given port will not undergo GSO.
1306By default, GSO is disabled for all ports.
1307
1308.. note::
1309
1310   When GSO is enabled on a port, supported IPv4 packets transmitted on that
1311   port undergo GSO. Afterwards, the segmented packets are represented by
1312   multi-segment mbufs; however, the csum forwarding engine doesn't calculation
1313   of checksums for GSO'd segments in SW. As a result, if users want correct
1314   checksums in GSO segments, they should enable HW checksum calculation for
1315   GSO-enabled ports.
1316
1317   For example, HW checksum calculation for VxLAN GSO'd packets may be enabled
1318   by setting the following options in the csum forwarding engine:
1319
1320   testpmd> csum set outer_ip hw <port_id>
1321
1322   testpmd> csum set ip hw <port_id>
1323
1324   testpmd> csum set tcp hw <port_id>
1325
1326   UDP GSO is the same as IP fragmentation, which treats the UDP header
1327   as the payload and does not modify it during segmentation. That is,
1328   after UDP GSO, only the first output fragment has the original UDP
1329   header. Therefore, users need to enable HW IP checksum calculation
1330   and SW UDP checksum calculation for GSO-enabled ports, if they want
1331   correct checksums for UDP/IPv4 packets.
1332
1333set gso segsz

1335
1336Set the maximum GSO segment size (measured in bytes), which includes the

1993Port Functions
1994--------------
1995
1996The following sections show functions for configuring ports.
1997
1998.. note::
1999
2000   Port configuration changes only become active when forwarding is started/restarted.
2001
2002port attach
2003~~~~~~~~~~~
2004
2005Attach a port specified by pci address or virtual device args::
2006
2007   testpmd> port attach (identifier)
2008
2009To attach a new pci device, the device should be recognized by kernel first.
2010Then it should be moved under DPDK management.
2011Finally the port can be attached to testpmd.
2012
2013For example, to move a pci device using ixgbe under DPDK management:
2014
2015.. code-block:: console
2016
2017   # Check the status of the available devices.
2018   ./usertools/dpdk-devbind.py --status
2019
2020   Network devices using DPDK-compatible driver
2021   ============================================
2022   <none>
2023
2024   Network devices using kernel driver
2025   ===================================
2026   0000:0a:00.0 '82599ES 10-Gigabit' if=eth2 drv=ixgbe unused=
2027
2028
2029   # Bind the device to igb_uio.
2030   sudo ./usertools/dpdk-devbind.py -b igb_uio 0000:0a:00.0
2031
2032
2033   # Recheck the status of the devices.
2034   ./usertools/dpdk-devbind.py --status
2035   Network devices using DPDK-compatible driver
2036   ============================================
2037   0000:0a:00.0 '82599ES 10-Gigabit' drv=igb_uio unused=
2038
2039To attach a port created by virtual device, above steps are not needed.
2040
2041For example, to attach a port whose pci address is 0000:0a:00.0.
2042
2043.. code-block:: console
2044
2045   testpmd> port attach 0000:0a:00.0
2046   Attaching a new port...
2047   EAL: PCI device 0000:0a:00.0 on NUMA socket -1
2048   EAL:   probe driver: 8086:10fb rte_ixgbe_pmd
2049   EAL:   PCI memory mapped at 0x7f83bfa00000
2050   EAL:   PCI memory mapped at 0x7f83bfa80000
2051   PMD: eth_ixgbe_dev_init(): MAC: 2, PHY: 18, SFP+: 5
2052   PMD: eth_ixgbe_dev_init(): port 0 vendorID=0x8086 deviceID=0x10fb
2053   Port 0 is attached. Now total ports is 1
2054   Done
2055
2056For example, to attach a port created by pcap PMD.
2057
2058.. code-block:: console
2059
2060   testpmd> port attach net_pcap0
2061   Attaching a new port...
2062   PMD: Initializing pmd_pcap for net_pcap0
2063   PMD: Creating pcap-backed ethdev on numa socket 0
2064   Port 0 is attached. Now total ports is 1
2065   Done
2066
2067In this case, identifier is ``net_pcap0``.
2068This identifier format is the same as ``--vdev`` format of DPDK applications.
2069
2070For example, to re-attach a bonded port which has been previously detached,
2071the mode and slave parameters must be given.
2072
2073.. code-block:: console
2074
2075   testpmd> port attach net_bond_0,mode=0,slave=1
2076   Attaching a new port...
2077   EAL: Initializing pmd_bond for net_bond_0
2078   EAL: Create bonded device net_bond_0 on port 0 in mode 0 on socket 0.
2079   Port 0 is attached. Now total ports is 1
2080   Done
2081
2082
2083port detach
2084~~~~~~~~~~~
2085
2086Detach a specific port::
2087
2088   testpmd> port detach (port_id)
2089
2090Before detaching a port, the port should be stopped and closed.
2091
2092For example, to detach a pci device port 0.
2093
2094.. code-block:: console
2095
2096   testpmd> port stop 0
2097   Stopping ports...
2098   Done
2099   testpmd> port close 0
2100   Closing ports...
2101   Done
2102
2103   testpmd> port detach 0
2104   Detaching a port...
2105   EAL: PCI device 0000:0a:00.0 on NUMA socket -1
2106   EAL:   remove driver: 8086:10fb rte_ixgbe_pmd
2107   EAL:   PCI memory unmapped at 0x7f83bfa00000
2108   EAL:   PCI memory unmapped at 0x7f83bfa80000
2109   Done
2110
2111
2112For example, to detach a virtual device port 0.
2113
2114.. code-block:: console
2115
2116   testpmd> port stop 0
2117   Stopping ports...
2118   Done
2119   testpmd> port close 0
2120   Closing ports...
2121   Done
2122
2123   testpmd> port detach 0
2124   Detaching a port...
2125   PMD: Closing pcap ethdev on numa socket 0
2126   Port 'net_pcap0' is detached. Now total ports is 0
2127   Done
2128
2129To remove a pci device completely from the system, first detach the port from testpmd.
2130Then the device should be moved under kernel management.
2131Finally the device can be removed using kernel pci hotplug functionality.
2132
2133For example, to move a pci device under kernel management:
2134
2135.. code-block:: console
2136
2137   sudo ./usertools/dpdk-devbind.py -b ixgbe 0000:0a:00.0
2138
2139   ./usertools/dpdk-devbind.py --status

2228This is equivalent to the ``--rxq``, ``--txq``, ``--rxd`` and ``--txd`` command-line options.
2229
2230port config - max-pkt-len
2231~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
2232

2254
2255Packet dropping when no receive buffers available is off by default.
2256
2257The ``on`` option is equivalent to the ``--enable-drop-en`` command-line option.
2258
2259port config - RSS
2260~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
2261

2265
2266RSS is on by default.
2267
2268The ``all`` option is equivalent to eth|vlan|ip|tcp|udp|sctp|ether|l2tpv3|esp|ah|pfcp.
2269
2270The ``default`` option enables all supported RSS types reported by device info.
2271

2420Device Functions
2421----------------
2422
2423The following sections show functions for device operations.
2424
2425device detach
2426~~~~~~~~~~~~~
2427
2428Detach a device specified by pci address or virtual device args::
2429
2430   testpmd> device detach (identifier)
2431
2432Before detaching a device associated with ports, the ports should be stopped and closed.
2433
2434For example, to detach a pci device whose address is 0002:03:00.0.
2435
2436.. code-block:: console
2437
2438    testpmd> device detach 0002:03:00.0
2439    Removing a device...
2440    Port 1 is now closed
2441    EAL: Releasing pci mapped resource for 0002:03:00.0
2442    EAL: Calling pci_unmap_resource for 0002:03:00.0 at 0x218a050000
2443    EAL: Calling pci_unmap_resource for 0002:03:00.0 at 0x218c050000
2444    Device 0002:03:00.0 is detached
2445    Now total ports is 1
2446
2447For example, to detach a port created by pcap PMD.
2448
2449.. code-block:: console
2450
2451    testpmd> device detach net_pcap0
2452    Removing a device...
2453    Port 0 is now closed
2454    Device net_pcap0 is detached
2455    Now total ports is 0
2456    Done
2457
2458In this case, identifier is ``net_pcap0``.
2459This identifier format is the same as ``--vdev`` format of DPDK applications.
2460
2461Link Bonding Functions
2462----------------------

2482Adds Ethernet device to a Link Bonding device::
2483
2484   testpmd> add bonding slave (slave id) (port id)
2485
2486For example, to add Ethernet device (port 6) to a Link Bonding device (port 10)::
2487
2488   testpmd> add bonding slave 6 10
2489
2490
2491remove bonding slave
2492~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
2493
2494Removes an Ethernet slave device from a Link Bonding device::
2495
2496   testpmd> remove bonding slave (slave id) (port id)
2497
2498For example, to remove Ethernet slave device (port 6) to a Link Bonding device (port 10)::

2541
2542For example, set a Link Bonding device (port 10) to use a balance policy of layer 3+4 (IP addresses & UDP ports)::
2543
2544   testpmd> set bonding xmit_balance_policy 10 l34
2545
2546
2547set bonding mon_period
2548~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

2551
2552This adds support for PMD slave devices which do not support link status interrupts.
2553When the mon_period is set to a value greater than 0 then all PMD's which do not support
2554link status ISR will be queried every polling interval to check if their link status has changed::
2555
2556   testpmd> set bonding mon_period (port_id) (value)
2557
2558For example, to set the link status monitoring polling period of bonded device (port 5) to 150ms::

2587For example,
2588to show the configuration a Link Bonding device (port 9) with 3 slave devices (1, 3, 4)
2589in balance mode with a transmission policy of layer 2+3::
2590
2591   testpmd> show bonding config 9
2592        Bonding mode: 2
2593        Balance Xmit Policy: BALANCE_XMIT_POLICY_LAYER23

3345.. _testpmd_flow_director:
3346
3347flow_director_filter
3348~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
3349
3350The Flow Director works in receive mode to identify specific flows or sets of flows and route them to specific queues.
3351
3352Four types of filtering are supported which are referred to as Perfect Match, Signature, Perfect-mac-vlan and
3353Perfect-tunnel filters, the match mode is set by the ``--pkt-filter-mode`` command-line parameter:
3354
3355* Perfect match filters.
3356  The hardware checks a match between the masked fields of the received packets and the programmed filters.
3357  The masked fields are for IP flow.
3358
3359* Signature filters.
3360  The hardware checks a match between a hash-based signature of the masked fields of the received packet.
3361
3362* Perfect-mac-vlan match filters.
3363  The hardware checks a match between the masked fields of the received packets and the programmed filters.
3364  The masked fields are for MAC VLAN flow.
3365
3366* Perfect-tunnel match filters.
3367  The hardware checks a match between the masked fields of the received packets and the programmed filters.
3368  The masked fields are for tunnel flow.
3369
3370* Perfect-raw-flow-type match filters.
3371  The hardware checks a match between the masked fields of the received packets and pre-loaded raw (template) packet.
3372  The masked fields are specified by input sets.
3373
3374The Flow Director filters can match the different fields for different type of packet: flow type, specific input set
3375per flow type and the flexible payload.
3376
3377The Flow Director can also mask out parts of all of these fields so that filters
3378are only applied to certain fields or parts of the fields.
3379
3380Note that for raw flow type mode the source and destination fields in the
3381raw packet buffer need to be presented in a reversed order with respect
3382to the expected received packets.
3383For example: IP source and destination addresses or TCP/UDP/SCTP
3384source and destination ports
3385
3386Different NICs may have different capabilities, command show port fdir (port_id) can be used to acquire the information.

3605.. _testpmd_rte_flow:
3606
3607Flow rules management
3608---------------------
3609
3610Control of the generic flow API (*rte_flow*) is fully exposed through the
3611``flow`` command (validation, creation, destruction, queries and operation
3612modes).
3613
3614Considering *rte_flow* overlaps with all `Filter Functions`_, using both
3615features simultaneously may cause undefined side-effects and is therefore
3616not recommended.
3617
3618``flow`` syntax
3619~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
3620
3621Because the ``flow`` command uses dynamic tokens to handle the large number
3622of possible flow rules combinations, its behavior differs slightly from
3623other commands, in particular:
3624
3625- Pressing *?* or the *<tab>* key displays contextual help for the current
3626  token, not that of the entire command.
3627
3628- Optional and repeated parameters are supported (provided they are listed
3629  in the contextual help).
3630
3631The first parameter stands for the operation mode. Possible operations and
3632their general syntax are described below. They are covered in detail in the
3633following sections.
3634
3635- Check whether a flow rule can be created::
3636
3637   flow validate {port_id}
3638       [group {group_id}] [priority {level}] [ingress] [egress] [transfer]
3639       pattern {item} [/ {item} [...]] / end
3640       actions {action} [/ {action} [...]] / end
3641
3642- Create a flow rule::
3643
3644   flow create {port_id}
3645       [group {group_id}] [priority {level}] [ingress] [egress] [transfer]
3646       pattern {item} [/ {item} [...]] / end
3647       actions {action} [/ {action} [...]] / end
3648
3649- Destroy specific flow rules::
3650
3651   flow destroy {port_id} rule {rule_id} [...]
3652
3653- Destroy all flow rules::
3654
3655   flow flush {port_id}
3656
3657- Query an existing flow rule::
3658
3659   flow query {port_id} {rule_id} {action}
3660
3661- List existing flow rules sorted by priority, filtered by group
3662  identifiers::
3663
3664   flow list {port_id} [group {group_id}] [...]
3665
3666- Restrict ingress traffic to the defined flow rules::
3667
3668   flow isolate {port_id} {boolean}
3669
3670- Dump internal representation information of all flows in hardware::

3676   flow aged {port_id} [destroy]
3677
3678Validating flow rules
3679~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
3680
3681``flow validate`` reports whether a flow rule would be accepted by the
3682underlying device in its current state but stops short of creating it. It is
3683bound to ``rte_flow_validate()``::
3684
3685   flow validate {port_id}
3686      [group {group_id}] [priority {level}] [ingress] [egress] [transfer]
3687      pattern {item} [/ {item} [...]] / end
3688      actions {action} [/ {action} [...]] / end
3689
3690If successful, it will show::
3691
3692   Flow rule validated
3693
3694Otherwise it will show an error message of the form::
3695
3696   Caught error type [...] ([...]): [...]
3697
3698This command uses the same parameters as ``flow create``, their format is
3699described in `Creating flow rules`_.
3700
3701Check whether redirecting any Ethernet packet received on port 0 to RX queue
3702index 6 is supported::
3703
3704   testpmd> flow validate 0 ingress pattern eth / end
3705      actions queue index 6 / end
3706   Flow rule validated
3707   testpmd>
3708
3709Port 0 does not support TCPv6 rules::
3710
3711   testpmd> flow validate 0 ingress pattern eth / ipv6 / tcp / end
3712      actions drop / end
3713   Caught error type 9 (specific pattern item): Invalid argument
3714   testpmd>
3715
3716Creating flow rules
3717~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
3718
3719``flow create`` validates and creates the specified flow rule. It is bound
3720to ``rte_flow_create()``::
3721
3722   flow create {port_id}
3723      [group {group_id}] [priority {level}] [ingress] [egress] [transfer]
3724      pattern {item} [/ {item} [...]] / end
3725      actions {action} [/ {action} [...]] / end
3726
3727If successful, it will return a flow rule ID usable with other commands::
3728
3729   Flow rule #[...] created
3730
3731Otherwise it will show an error message of the form::
3732
3733   Caught error type [...] ([...]): [...]
3734
3735Parameters describe in the following order:
3736
3737- Attributes (*group*, *priority*, *ingress*, *egress*, *transfer* tokens).
3738- A matching pattern, starting with the *pattern* token and terminated by an
3739  *end* pattern item.
3740- Actions, starting with the *actions* token and terminated by an *end*
3741  action.
3742
3743These translate directly to *rte_flow* objects provided as-is to the
3744underlying functions.
3745
3746The shortest valid definition only comprises mandatory tokens::
3747
3748   testpmd> flow create 0 pattern end actions end
3749
3750Note that PMDs may refuse rules that essentially do nothing such as this
3751one.
3752
3753**All unspecified object values are automatically initialized to 0.**
3754
3755Attributes
3756^^^^^^^^^^
3757
3758These tokens affect flow rule attributes (``struct rte_flow_attr``) and are
3759specified before the ``pattern`` token.
3760
3761- ``group {group id}``: priority group.
3762- ``priority {level}``: priority level within group.
3763- ``ingress``: rule applies to ingress traffic.
3764- ``egress``: rule applies to egress traffic.
3765- ``transfer``: apply rule directly to endpoints found in pattern.
3766
3767Each instance of an attribute specified several times overrides the previous
3768value as shown below (group 4 is used)::
3769
3770   testpmd> flow create 0 group 42 group 24 group 4 [...]
3771
3772Note that once enabled, ``ingress`` and ``egress`` cannot be disabled.
3773
3774While not specifying a direction is an error, some rules may allow both
3775simultaneously.
3776
3777Most rules affect RX therefore contain the ``ingress`` token::
3778
3779   testpmd> flow create 0 ingress pattern [...]
3780
3781Matching pattern
3782^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
3783
3784A matching pattern starts after the ``pattern`` token. It is made of pattern
3785items and is terminated by a mandatory ``end`` item.
3786
3787Items are named after their type (*RTE_FLOW_ITEM_TYPE_* from ``enum
3788rte_flow_item_type``).
3789
3790The ``/`` token is used as a separator between pattern items as shown
3791below::
3792
3793   testpmd> flow create 0 ingress pattern eth / ipv4 / udp / end [...]
3794
3795Note that protocol items like these must be stacked from lowest to highest
3796layer to make sense. For instance, the following rule is either invalid or
3797unlikely to match any packet::
3798
3799   testpmd> flow create 0 ingress pattern eth / udp / ipv4 / end [...]
3800
3801More information on these restrictions can be found in the *rte_flow*
3802documentation.
3803
3804Several items support additional specification structures, for example
3805``ipv4`` allows specifying source and destination addresses as follows::
3806
3807   testpmd> flow create 0 ingress pattern eth / ipv4 src is 10.1.1.1
3808      dst is 10.2.0.0 / end [...]
3809
3810This rule matches all IPv4 traffic with the specified properties.
3811
3812In this example, ``src`` and ``dst`` are field names of the underlying
3813``struct rte_flow_item_ipv4`` object. All item properties can be specified
3814in a similar fashion.
3815
3816The ``is`` token means that the subsequent value must be matched exactly,
3817and assigns ``spec`` and ``mask`` fields in ``struct rte_flow_item``
3818accordingly. Possible assignment tokens are:
3819
3820- ``is``: match value perfectly (with full bit-mask).
3821- ``spec``: match value according to configured bit-mask.
3822- ``last``: specify upper bound to establish a range.
3823- ``mask``: specify bit-mask with relevant bits set to one.
3824- ``prefix``: generate bit-mask with <prefix-length> most-significant bits set to one.
3825
3826These yield identical results::
3827
3828   ipv4 src is 10.1.1.1
3829
3830::
3831
3832   ipv4 src spec 10.1.1.1 src mask 255.255.255.255
3833
3834::
3835
3836   ipv4 src spec 10.1.1.1 src prefix 32
3837
3838::
3839
3840   ipv4 src is 10.1.1.1 src last 10.1.1.1 # range with a single value
3841
3842::
3843
3844   ipv4 src is 10.1.1.1 src last 0 # 0 disables range
3845
3846Inclusive ranges can be defined with ``last``::
3847
3848   ipv4 src is 10.1.1.1 src last 10.2.3.4 # 10.1.1.1 to 10.2.3.4
3849
3850Note that ``mask`` affects both ``spec`` and ``last``::
3851
3852   ipv4 src is 10.1.1.1 src last 10.2.3.4 src mask 255.255.0.0
3853      # matches 10.1.0.0 to 10.2.255.255
3854
3855Properties can be modified multiple times::
3856
3857   ipv4 src is 10.1.1.1 src is 10.1.2.3 src is 10.2.3.4 # matches 10.2.3.4
3858
3859::
3860
3861   ipv4 src is 10.1.1.1 src prefix 24 src prefix 16 # matches 10.1.0.0/16
3862

4065
4066Actions list
4067^^^^^^^^^^^^
4068
4069A list of actions starts after the ``actions`` token in the same fashion as
4070`Matching pattern`_; actions are separated by ``/`` tokens and the list is
4071terminated by a mandatory ``end`` action.
4072
4073Actions are named after their type (*RTE_FLOW_ACTION_TYPE_* from ``enum
4074rte_flow_action_type``).
4075
4076Dropping all incoming UDPv4 packets can be expressed as follows::
4077
4078   testpmd> flow create 0 ingress pattern eth / ipv4 / udp / end
4079      actions drop / end
4080
4081Several actions have configurable properties which must be specified when
4082there is no valid default value. For example, ``queue`` requires a target
4083queue index.
4084
4085This rule redirects incoming UDPv4 traffic to queue index 6::
4086
4087   testpmd> flow create 0 ingress pattern eth / ipv4 / udp / end
4088      actions queue index 6 / end
4089
4090While this one could be rejected by PMDs (unspecified queue index)::
4091
4092   testpmd> flow create 0 ingress pattern eth / ipv4 / udp / end
4093      actions queue / end
4094
4095As defined by *rte_flow*, the list is not ordered, all actions of a given
4096rule are performed simultaneously. These are equivalent::
4097
4098   queue index 6 / void / mark id 42 / end
4099
4100::
4101
4102   void / mark id 42 / queue index 6 / end
4103
4104All actions in a list should have different types, otherwise only the last
4105action of a given type is taken into account::
4106
4107   queue index 4 / queue index 5 / queue index 6 / end # will use queue 6
4108
4109::
4110
4111   drop / drop / drop / end # drop is performed only once
4112
4113::
4114
4115   mark id 42 / queue index 3 / mark id 24 / end # mark will be 24
4116
4117Considering they are performed simultaneously, opposite and overlapping
4118actions can sometimes be combined when the end result is unambiguous::
4119
4120   drop / queue index 6 / end # drop has no effect
4121
4122::
4123
4124   queue index 6 / rss queues 6 7 8 / end # queue has no effect
4125
4126::
4127
4128   drop / passthru / end # drop has no effect
4129
4130Note that PMDs may still refuse such combinations.

4333Destroying flow rules
4334~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
4335
4336``flow destroy`` destroys one or more rules from their rule ID (as returned
4337by ``flow create``), this command calls ``rte_flow_destroy()`` as many
4338times as necessary::
4339
4340   flow destroy {port_id} rule {rule_id} [...]
4341
4342If successful, it will show::
4343
4344   Flow rule #[...] destroyed
4345
4346It does not report anything for rule IDs that do not exist. The usual error
4347message is shown when a rule cannot be destroyed::
4348
4349   Caught error type [...] ([...]): [...]
4350
4351``flow flush`` destroys all rules on a device and does not take extra
4352arguments. It is bound to ``rte_flow_flush()``::
4353
4354   flow flush {port_id}
4355
4356Any errors are reported as above.
4357
4358Creating several rules and destroying them::
4359
4360   testpmd> flow create 0 ingress pattern eth / ipv6 / end
4361      actions queue index 2 / end
4362   Flow rule #0 created
4363   testpmd> flow create 0 ingress pattern eth / ipv4 / end
4364      actions queue index 3 / end
4365   Flow rule #1 created
4366   testpmd> flow destroy 0 rule 0 rule 1
4367   Flow rule #1 destroyed
4368   Flow rule #0 destroyed
4369   testpmd>
4370
4371The same result can be achieved using ``flow flush``::
4372
4373   testpmd> flow create 0 ingress pattern eth / ipv6 / end
4374      actions queue index 2 / end
4375   Flow rule #0 created
4376   testpmd> flow create 0 ingress pattern eth / ipv4 / end
4377      actions queue index 3 / end
4378   Flow rule #1 created
4379   testpmd> flow flush 0
4380   testpmd>
4381
4382Non-existent rule IDs are ignored::
4383
4384   testpmd> flow create 0 ingress pattern eth / ipv6 / end
4385      actions queue index 2 / end
4386   Flow rule #0 created
4387   testpmd> flow create 0 ingress pattern eth / ipv4 / end
4388      actions queue index 3 / end
4389   Flow rule #1 created
4390   testpmd> flow destroy 0 rule 42 rule 10 rule 2
4391   testpmd>
4392   testpmd> flow destroy 0 rule 0
4393   Flow rule #0 destroyed
4394   testpmd>
4395
4396Querying flow rules
4397~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
4398
4399``flow query`` queries a specific action of a flow rule having that
4400ability. Such actions collect information that can be reported using this
4401command. It is bound to ``rte_flow_query()``::
4402
4403   flow query {port_id} {rule_id} {action}
4404
4405If successful, it will display either the retrieved data for known actions
4406or the following message::
4407
4408   Cannot display result for action type [...] ([...])
4409
4410Otherwise, it will complain either that the rule does not exist or that some
4411error occurred::
4412
4413   Flow rule #[...] not found
4414
4415::
4416
4417   Caught error type [...] ([...]): [...]
4418
4419Currently only the ``count`` action is supported. This action reports the
4420number of packets that hit the flow rule and the total number of bytes. Its
4421output has the following format::
4422
4423   count:
4424    hits_set: [...] # whether "hits" contains a valid value
4425    bytes_set: [...] # whether "bytes" contains a valid value
4426    hits: [...] # number of packets
4427    bytes: [...] # number of bytes
4428
4429Querying counters for TCPv6 packets redirected to queue 6::
4430
4431   testpmd> flow create 0 ingress pattern eth / ipv6 / tcp / end
4432      actions queue index 6 / count / end
4433   Flow rule #4 created
4434   testpmd> flow query 0 4 count
4435   count:
4436    hits_set: 1
4437    bytes_set: 0
4438    hits: 386446
4439    bytes: 0
4440   testpmd>
4441
4442Listing flow rules
4443~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
4444
4445``flow list`` lists existing flow rules sorted by priority and optionally
4446filtered by group identifiers::
4447
4448   flow list {port_id} [group {group_id}] [...]
4449
4450This command only fails with the following message if the device does not
4451exist::
4452
4453   Invalid port [...]
4454
4455Output consists of a header line followed by a short description of each
4456flow rule, one per line. There is no output at all when no flow rules are
4457configured on the device::
4458
4459   ID      Group   Prio    Attr    Rule
4460   [...]   [...]   [...]   [...]   [...]
4461
4462``Attr`` column flags:
4463
4464- ``i`` for ``ingress``.
4465- ``e`` for ``egress``.
4466
4467Creating several flow rules and listing them::
4468
4469   testpmd> flow create 0 ingress pattern eth / ipv4 / end
4470      actions queue index 6 / end
4471   Flow rule #0 created
4472   testpmd> flow create 0 ingress pattern eth / ipv6 / end
4473      actions queue index 2 / end
4474   Flow rule #1 created
4475   testpmd> flow create 0 priority 5 ingress pattern eth / ipv4 / udp / end
4476      actions rss queues 6 7 8 end / end
4477   Flow rule #2 created
4478   testpmd> flow list 0
4479   ID      Group   Prio    Attr    Rule
4480   0       0       0       i-      ETH IPV4 => QUEUE
4481   1       0       0       i-      ETH IPV6 => QUEUE
4482   2       0       5       i-      ETH IPV4 UDP => RSS
4483   testpmd>
4484
4485Rules are sorted by priority (i.e. group ID first, then priority level)::
4486
4487   testpmd> flow list 1
4488   ID      Group   Prio    Attr    Rule
4489   0       0       0       i-      ETH => COUNT
4490   6       0       500     i-      ETH IPV6 TCP => DROP COUNT
4491   5       0       1000    i-      ETH IPV6 ICMP => QUEUE
4492   1       24      0       i-      ETH IPV4 UDP => QUEUE
4493   4       24      10      i-      ETH IPV4 TCP => DROP
4494   3       24      20      i-      ETH IPV4 => DROP
4495   2       24      42      i-      ETH IPV4 UDP => QUEUE
4496   7       63      0       i-      ETH IPV6 UDP VXLAN => MARK QUEUE
4497   testpmd>
4498
4499Output can be limited to specific groups::
4500
4501   testpmd> flow list 1 group 0 group 63
4502   ID      Group   Prio    Attr    Rule
4503   0       0       0       i-      ETH => COUNT
4504   6       0       500     i-      ETH IPV6 TCP => DROP COUNT
4505   5       0       1000    i-      ETH IPV6 ICMP => QUEUE
4506   7       63      0       i-      ETH IPV6 UDP VXLAN => MARK QUEUE
4507   testpmd>
4508
4509Toggling isolated mode
4510~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
4511
4512``flow isolate`` can be used to tell the underlying PMD that ingress traffic
4513must only be injected from the defined flow rules; that no default traffic
4514is expected outside those rules and the driver is free to assign more
4515resources to handle them. It is bound to ``rte_flow_isolate()``::
4516
4517 flow isolate {port_id} {boolean}
4518
4519If successful, enabling or disabling isolated mode shows either::
4520
4521 Ingress traffic on port [...]
4522    is now restricted to the defined flow rules
4523
4524Or::
4525
4526 Ingress traffic on port [...]
4527    is not restricted anymore to the defined flow rules
4528
4529Otherwise, in case of error::
4530
4531   Caught error type [...] ([...]): [...]
4532
4533Mainly due to its side effects, PMDs supporting this mode may not have the
4534ability to toggle it more than once without reinitializing affected ports
4535first (e.g. by exiting testpmd).
4536
4537Enabling isolated mode::
4538
4539 testpmd> flow isolate 0 true
4540 Ingress traffic on port 0 is now restricted to the defined flow rules
4541 testpmd>
4542
4543Disabling isolated mode::
4544
4545 testpmd> flow isolate 0 false
4546 Ingress traffic on port 0 is not restricted anymore to the defined flow rules
4547 testpmd>
4548
4549Dumping HW internal information
4550~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
4551
4552``flow dump`` dumps the hardware's internal representation information of
4553all flows. It is bound to ``rte_flow_dev_dump()``::
4554
4555   flow dump {port_id} {output_file}
4556
4557If successful, it will show::
4558
4559   Flow dump finished
4560
4561Otherwise, it will complain error occurred::
4562
4563   Caught error type [...] ([...]): [...]
4564
4565Listing and destroying aged flow rules
4566~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
4567
4568``flow aged`` simply lists aged flow rules be get from api ``rte_flow_get_aged_flows``,
4569and ``destroy`` parameter can be used to destroy those flow rules in PMD.
4570
4571   flow aged {port_id} [destroy]
4572
4573Listing current aged flow rules::
4574
4575   testpmd> flow aged 0
4576   Port 0 total aged flows: 0
4577   testpmd> flow create 0 ingress pattern eth / ipv4 src is 2.2.2.14 / end
4578      actions age timeout 5 / queue index 0 /  end
4579   Flow rule #0 created
4580   testpmd> flow create 0 ingress pattern eth / ipv4 src is 2.2.2.15 / end
4581      actions age timeout 4 / queue index 0 /  end
4582   Flow rule #1 created
4583   testpmd> flow create 0 ingress pattern eth / ipv4 src is 2.2.2.16 / end
4584      actions age timeout 2 / queue index 0 /  end
4585   Flow rule #2 created
4586   testpmd> flow create 0 ingress pattern eth / ipv4 src is 2.2.2.17 / end
4587      actions age timeout 3 / queue index 0 /  end
4588   Flow rule #3 created
4589
4590
4591Aged Rules are simply list as command ``flow list {port_id}``, but strip the detail rule
4592information, all the aged flows are sorted by the longest timeout time. For example, if
4593those rules be configured in the same time, ID 2 will be the first aged out rule, the next
4594will be ID 3, ID 1, ID 0::
4595
4596   testpmd> flow aged 0
4597   Port 0 total aged flows: 4
4598   ID      Group   Prio    Attr
4599   2       0       0       i--
4600   3       0       0       i--
4601   1       0       0       i--
4602   0       0       0       i--
4603
4604If attach ``destroy`` parameter, the command will destroy all the list aged flow rules.
4605
4606   testpmd> flow aged 0 destroy
4607   Port 0 total aged flows: 4
4608   ID      Group   Prio    Attr
4609   2       0       0       i--
4610   3       0       0       i--
4611   1       0       0       i--
4612   0       0       0       i--
4613
4614   Flow rule #2 destroyed
4615   Flow rule #3 destroyed
4616   Flow rule #1 destroyed
4617   Flow rule #0 destroyed
4618   4 flows be destroyed
4619   testpmd> flow aged 0

4621
4622
4623Sample QinQ flow rules
4624~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
4625
4626Before creating QinQ rule(s) the following commands should be issued to enable QinQ::
4627
4628   testpmd> port stop 0
4629   testpmd> vlan set qinq_strip on 0
4630
4631The above command sets the inner and outer TPID's to 0x8100.
4632
4633To change the TPID's the following commands should be used::
4634
4635   testpmd> vlan set outer tpid 0xa100 0
4636   testpmd> vlan set inner tpid 0x9100 0
4637   testpmd> port start 0
4638
4639Validate and create a QinQ rule on port 0 to steer traffic to a VF queue in a VM.
4640
4641::
4642
4643   testpmd> flow validate 0 ingress pattern eth / vlan tci is 123 /
4644       vlan tci is 456 / end actions vf id 1 / queue index 0 / end
4645   Flow rule #0 validated
4646
4647   testpmd> flow create 0 ingress pattern eth / vlan tci is 4 /

4988BPF Functions
4989--------------
4990
4991The following sections show functions to load/unload eBPF based filters.
4992
4993bpf-load
4994~~~~~~~~
4995
4996Load an eBPF program as a callback for particular RX/TX queue::
4997
4998   testpmd> bpf-load rx|tx (portid) (queueid) (load-flags) (bpf-prog-filename)
4999
5000The available load-flags are:
5001
5002* ``J``: use JIT generated native code, otherwise BPF interpreter will be used.
5003
5004* ``M``: assume input parameter is a pointer to rte_mbuf, otherwise assume it is a pointer to first segment's data.
5005
5006* ``-``: none.
5007
5008.. note::
5009
5010   You'll need clang v3.7 or above to build bpf program you'd like to load
5011
5012For example:
5013
5014.. code-block:: console
5015
5016   cd examples/bpf
5017   clang -O2 -target bpf -c t1.c
5018
5019Then to load (and JIT compile) t1.o at RX queue 0, port 1:
5020
5021.. code-block:: console
5022
5023   testpmd> bpf-load rx 1 0 J ./dpdk.org/examples/bpf/t1.o
5024
5025To load (not JITed) t1.o at TX queue 0, port 0:
5026
5027.. code-block:: console
5028
5029   testpmd> bpf-load tx 0 0 - ./dpdk.org/examples/bpf/t1.o
5030
5031bpf-unload
5032~~~~~~~~~~
5033
5034Unload previously loaded eBPF program for particular RX/TX queue::
5035
5036   testpmd> bpf-unload rx|tx (portid) (queueid)
5037
5038For example to unload BPF filter from TX queue 0, port 0:
5039
5040.. code-block:: console
5041
5042   testpmd> bpf-unload tx 0 0
5043
