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.

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

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.

267   testpmd> show port (port_id) (rxq|txq) (queue_id) desc (desc_id) status
268
269
270show config
271~~~~~~~~~~~
272

274The configuration comes from the command-line, the runtime or the application defaults::
275
276   testpmd> show config (rxtx|cores|fwd|txpkts|txtimes)
277
278The available information categories are:
279
280* ``rxtx``: RX/TX configuration items.
281
282* ``cores``: List of forwarding cores.
283
284* ``fwd``: Packet forwarding configuration.
285

291
292.. code-block:: console
293
294   testpmd> show config rxtx
295
296   io packet forwarding - CRC stripping disabled - packets/burst=16
297   nb forwarding cores=2 - nb forwarding ports=1
298   RX queues=1 - RX desc=128 - RX free threshold=0
299   RX threshold registers: pthresh=8 hthresh=8 wthresh=4
300   TX queues=1 - TX desc=512 - TX free threshold=0
301   TX threshold registers: pthresh=36 hthresh=0 wthresh=0
302   TX RS bit threshold=0 - TXQ flags=0x0
303
304set fwd
305~~~~~~~
306
307Set the packet forwarding mode::
308
309   testpmd> set fwd (io|mac|macswap|flowgen| \
310                     rxonly|txonly|csum|icmpecho|noisy|5tswap) (""|retry)
311
312``retry`` can be specified for forwarding engines except ``rx_only``.
313
314The available information categories are:
315
316* ``io``: Forwards packets "as-is" in I/O mode.
317  This is the fastest possible forwarding operation as it does not access packets data.
318  This is the default mode.
319
320* ``mac``: Changes the source and the destination Ethernet addresses of packets before forwarding them.
321  Default application behavior is to set source Ethernet address to that of the transmitting interface, and destination
322  address to a dummy value (set during init). The user may specify a target destination Ethernet address via the 'eth-peer' or
323  'eth-peers-configfile' command-line options. It is not currently possible to specify a specific source Ethernet address.
324
325* ``macswap``: MAC swap forwarding mode.
326  Swaps the source and the destination Ethernet addresses of packets before forwarding them.
327
328* ``flowgen``: Multi-flow generation mode.
329  Originates a number of flows (with varying destination IP addresses), and terminate receive traffic.
330
331* ``rxonly``: Receives packets but doesn't transmit them.
332
333* ``txonly``: Generates and transmits packets without receiving any.
334
335* ``csum``: Changes the checksum field with hardware or software methods depending on the offload flags on the packet.
336
337* ``icmpecho``: Receives a burst of packets, lookup for ICMP echo requests and, if any, send back ICMP echo replies.
338
339* ``ieee1588``: Demonstrate L2 IEEE1588 V2 PTP timestamping for RX and TX. Requires ``CONFIG_RTE_LIBRTE_IEEE1588=y``.
340
341* ``noisy``: Noisy neighbor simulation.
342  Simulate more realistic behavior of a guest machine engaged in receiving
343  and sending packets performing Virtual Network Function (VNF).
344
345* ``5tswap``: Swap the source and destination of L2,L3,L4 if they exist.
346
347  L2 swaps the source address and destination address of Ethernet, as same as ``macswap``.
348
349  L3 swaps the source address and destination address of IP (v4 and v6).
350
351  L4 swaps the source port and destination port of transport layer (TCP and UDP).
352
353Example::
354
355   testpmd> set fwd rxonly
356
357   Set rxonly packet forwarding mode
358
359
360show fwd
361~~~~~~~~
362
363When running, forwarding engines maintain statistics from the time they have been started.

365
366   testpmd> show fwd stats all

623Configuration Functions
624-----------------------
625
626The testpmd application can be configured from the runtime as well as from the command-line.
627
628This section details the available configuration functions that are available.
629
630.. note::
631
632   Configuration changes only become active when forwarding is started/restarted.
633
634set default
635~~~~~~~~~~~
636
637Reset forwarding to the default configuration::
638
639   testpmd> set default
640
641set verbose
642~~~~~~~~~~~
643
644Set the debug verbosity level::
645
646   testpmd> set verbose (level)
647
648Available levels are as following:
649
650* ``0`` silent except for error.
651* ``1`` fully verbose except for Tx packets.
652* ``2`` fully verbose except for Rx packets.
653* ``> 2`` fully verbose.
654
655set log
656~~~~~~~
657
658Set the log level for a log type::
659
660	testpmd> set log global|(type) (level)
661
662Where:
663
664* ``type`` is the log name.
665
666* ``level`` is the log level.
667
668For example, to change the global log level::
669
670	testpmd> set log global (level)
671
672Regexes can also be used for type. To change log level of user1, user2 and user3::
673
674	testpmd> set log user[1-3] (level)
675
676set nbport
677~~~~~~~~~~
678
679Set the number of ports used by the application:
680
681set nbport (num)
682
683This is equivalent to the ``--nb-ports`` command-line option.
684
685set nbcore
686~~~~~~~~~~
687
688Set the number of cores used by the application::
689
690   testpmd> set nbcore (num)
691
692This is equivalent to the ``--nb-cores`` command-line option.
693
694.. note::
695
696   The number of cores used must not be greater than number of ports used multiplied by the number of queues per port.
697
698set coremask
699~~~~~~~~~~~~
700
701Set the forwarding cores hexadecimal mask::
702
703   testpmd> set coremask (mask)
704
705This is equivalent to the ``--coremask`` command-line option.
706
707.. note::
708
709   The master lcore is reserved for command line parsing only and cannot be masked on for packet forwarding.
710
711set portmask
712~~~~~~~~~~~~
713
714Set the forwarding ports hexadecimal mask::
715
716   testpmd> set portmask (mask)
717
718This is equivalent to the ``--portmask`` command-line option.
719
720set record-core-cycles
721~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
722
723Set the recording of CPU cycles::
724
725   testpmd> set record-core-cycles (on|off)
726
727Where:
728
729* ``on`` enables measurement of CPU cycles per packet.
730
731* ``off`` disables measurement of CPU cycles per packet.
732
733This is equivalent to the ``--record-core-cycles command-line`` option.
734
735set record-burst-stats
736~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
737
738Set the displaying of RX and TX bursts::
739
740   testpmd> set record-burst-stats (on|off)
741
742Where:
743
744* ``on`` enables display of RX and TX bursts.
745
746* ``off`` disables display of RX and TX bursts.
747
748This is equivalent to the ``--record-burst-stats command-line`` option.
749
750set burst
751~~~~~~~~~
752
753Set number of packets per burst::
754
755   testpmd> set burst (num)
756
757This is equivalent to the ``--burst command-line`` option.
758
759When retry is enabled, the transmit delay time and number of retries can also be set::
760
761   testpmd> set burst tx delay (microseconds) retry (num)
762
763set txpkts
764~~~~~~~~~~
765
766Set the length of each segment of the TX-ONLY packets or length of packet for FLOWGEN mode::
767
768   testpmd> set txpkts (x[,y]*)
769
770Where x[,y]* represents a CSV list of values, without white space.
771
772set txtimes
773~~~~~~~~~~~
774
775Configure the timing burst pattern for Tx only mode. This command enables
776the packet send scheduling on dynamic timestamp mbuf field and configures
777timing pattern in Tx only mode. In this mode, if scheduling is enabled
778application provides timestamps in the packets being sent. It is possible
779to configure delay (in unspecified device clock units) between bursts
780and between the packets within the burst::
781
782   testpmd> set txtimes (inter),(intra)
783
784where:
785
786* ``inter``  is the delay between the bursts in the device clock units.
787  If ``intra`` is zero, this is the time between the beginnings of the
788  first packets in the neighbour bursts, if ``intra`` is not zero,
789  ``inter`` specifies the time between the beginning of the first packet
790  of the current burst and the beginning of the last packet of the
791  previous burst. If ``inter`` parameter is zero the send scheduling
792  on timestamps is disabled (default).
793
794* ``intra`` is the delay between the packets within the burst specified
795  in the device clock units. The number of packets in the burst is defined
796  by regular burst setting. If ``intra`` parameter is zero no timestamps
797  provided in the packets excepting the first one in the burst.
798
799As the result the bursts of packet will be transmitted with specific
800delays between the packets within the burst and specific delay between
801the bursts. The rte_eth_read_clock() must be supported by the device(s)
802and is supposed to be engaged to get the current device clock value
803and provide the reference for the timestamps. If there is no supported
804rte_eth_read_clock() there will be no send scheduling provided on the port.
805
806set txsplit
807~~~~~~~~~~~
808
809Set the split policy for the TX packets, applicable for TX-ONLY and CSUM forwarding modes::
810
811   testpmd> set txsplit (off|on|rand)
812
813Where:
814
815* ``off`` disable packet copy & split for CSUM mode.
816
817* ``on`` split outgoing packet into multiple segments. Size of each segment
818  and number of segments per packet is determined by ``set txpkts`` command
819  (see above).
820
821* ``rand`` same as 'on', but number of segments per each packet is a random value between 1 and total number of segments.
822
823set corelist
824~~~~~~~~~~~~
825
826Set the list of forwarding cores::
827
828   testpmd> set corelist (x[,y]*)
829
830For example, to change the forwarding cores:
831
832.. code-block:: console
833
834   testpmd> set corelist 3,1
835   testpmd> show config fwd
836
837   io packet forwarding - ports=2 - cores=2 - streams=2 - NUMA support disabled
838   Logical Core 3 (socket 0) forwards packets on 1 streams:
839   RX P=0/Q=0 (socket 0) -> TX P=1/Q=0 (socket 0) peer=02:00:00:00:00:01
840   Logical Core 1 (socket 0) forwards packets on 1 streams:
841   RX P=1/Q=0 (socket 0) -> TX P=0/Q=0 (socket 0) peer=02:00:00:00:00:00
842
843.. note::
844
845   The cores are used in the same order as specified on the command line.
846
847set portlist
848~~~~~~~~~~~~
849
850Set the list of forwarding ports::
851
852   testpmd> set portlist (x[,y]*)
853
854For example, to change the port forwarding:
855
856.. code-block:: console
857
858   testpmd> set portlist 0,2,1,3
859   testpmd> show config fwd
860
861   io packet forwarding - ports=4 - cores=1 - streams=4
862   Logical Core 3 (socket 0) forwards packets on 4 streams:
863   RX P=0/Q=0 (socket 0) -> TX P=2/Q=0 (socket 0) peer=02:00:00:00:00:01
864   RX P=2/Q=0 (socket 0) -> TX P=0/Q=0 (socket 0) peer=02:00:00:00:00:00
865   RX P=1/Q=0 (socket 0) -> TX P=3/Q=0 (socket 0) peer=02:00:00:00:00:03

1193csum parse-tunnel
1194~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1195
1196Define how tunneled packets should be handled by the csum forward
1197engine::
1198
1199   testpmd> csum parse-tunnel (on|off) (tx_port_id)
1200
1201If enabled, the csum forward engine will try to recognize supported
1202tunnel headers (vxlan, gre, ipip).
1203
1204If disabled, treat tunnel packets as non-tunneled packets (a inner
1205header is handled as a packet payload).
1206
1207.. note::
1208
1209   The port argument is the TX port like in the ``csum set`` command.
1210
1211Example:
1212
1213Consider a packet in packet like the following::
1214
1215   eth_out/ipv4_out/udp_out/vxlan/eth_in/ipv4_in/tcp_in
1216
1217* If parse-tunnel is enabled, the ``ip|udp|tcp|sctp`` parameters of ``csum set``
1218  command relate to the inner headers (here ``ipv4_in`` and ``tcp_in``), and the
1219  ``outer-ip|outer-udp`` parameter relates to the outer headers (here ``ipv4_out`` and ``udp_out``).
1220
1221* If parse-tunnel is disabled, the ``ip|udp|tcp|sctp`` parameters of ``csum  set``
1222   command relate to the outer headers, here ``ipv4_out`` and ``udp_out``.
1223

1233
1234Enable TCP Segmentation Offload (TSO) in the ``csum`` forwarding engine::
1235
1236   testpmd> tso set (segsize) (port_id)
1237
1238.. note::
1239
1240   Check the NIC datasheet for hardware limits.

1246
1247   testpmd> tso show (port_id)
1248
1249tunnel tso set
1250~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1251
1252Set tso segment size of tunneled packets for a port in csum engine::
1253
1254   testpmd> tunnel_tso set (tso_segsz) (port_id)
1255
1256tunnel tso show
1257~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1258
1259Display the status of tunneled TCP Segmentation Offload for a port::
1260
1261   testpmd> tunnel_tso show (port_id)
1262
1263set port - gro
1264~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1265
1266Enable or disable GRO in ``csum`` forwarding engine::
1267
1268   testpmd> set port <port_id> gro on|off
1269
1270If enabled, the csum forwarding engine will perform GRO on the TCP/IPv4
1271packets received from the given port.
1272
1273If disabled, packets received from the given port won't be performed
1274GRO. By default, GRO is disabled for all ports.
1275
1276.. note::
1277
1278   When enable GRO for a port, TCP/IPv4 packets received from the port
1279   will be performed GRO. After GRO, all merged packets have bad
1280   checksums, since the GRO library doesn't re-calculate checksums for
1281   the merged packets. Therefore, if users want the merged packets to
1282   have correct checksums, please select HW IP checksum calculation and
1283   HW TCP checksum calculation for the port which the merged packets are
1284   transmitted to.
1285
1286show port - gro
1287~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1288
1289Display GRO configuration for a given port::
1290
1291   testpmd> show port <port_id> gro
1292
1293set gro flush
1294~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1295
1296Set the cycle to flush the GROed packets from reassembly tables::
1297
1298   testpmd> set gro flush <cycles>
1299
1300When enable GRO, the csum forwarding engine performs GRO on received
1301packets, and the GROed packets are stored in reassembly tables. Users
1302can use this command to determine when the GROed packets are flushed
1303from the reassembly tables.
1304
1305The ``cycles`` is measured in GRO operation times. The csum forwarding
1306engine flushes the GROed packets from the tables every ``cycles`` GRO
1307operations.
1308
1309By default, the value of ``cycles`` is 1, which means flush GROed packets
1310from the reassembly tables as soon as one GRO operation finishes. The value
1311of ``cycles`` should be in the range of 1 to ``GRO_MAX_FLUSH_CYCLES``.
1312
1313Please note that the large value of ``cycles`` may cause the poor TCP/IP
1314stack performance. Because the GROed packets are delayed to arrive the
1315stack, thus causing more duplicated ACKs and TCP retransmissions.
1316
1317set port - gso
1318~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1319
1320Toggle per-port GSO support in ``csum`` forwarding engine::
1321
1322   testpmd> set port <port_id> gso on|off
1323
1324If enabled, the csum forwarding engine will perform GSO on supported IPv4
1325packets, transmitted on the given port.
1326
1327If disabled, packets transmitted on the given port will not undergo GSO.
1328By default, GSO is disabled for all ports.
1329
1330.. note::
1331
1332   When GSO is enabled on a port, supported IPv4 packets transmitted on that
1333   port undergo GSO. Afterwards, the segmented packets are represented by
1334   multi-segment mbufs; however, the csum forwarding engine doesn't calculation
1335   of checksums for GSO'd segments in SW. As a result, if users want correct
1336   checksums in GSO segments, they should enable HW checksum calculation for
1337   GSO-enabled ports.
1338
1339   For example, HW checksum calculation for VxLAN GSO'd packets may be enabled
1340   by setting the following options in the csum forwarding engine:
1341
1342   testpmd> csum set outer_ip hw <port_id>
1343
1344   testpmd> csum set ip hw <port_id>
1345
1346   testpmd> csum set tcp hw <port_id>
1347
1348   UDP GSO is the same as IP fragmentation, which treats the UDP header
1349   as the payload and does not modify it during segmentation. That is,
1350   after UDP GSO, only the first output fragment has the original UDP
1351   header. Therefore, users need to enable HW IP checksum calculation
1352   and SW UDP checksum calculation for GSO-enabled ports, if they want
1353   correct checksums for UDP/IPv4 packets.
1354
1355set gso segsz
1356~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1357
1358Set the maximum GSO segment size (measured in bytes), which includes the
1359packet header and the packet payload for GSO-enabled ports (global)::

2015Port Functions
2016--------------
2017
2018The following sections show functions for configuring ports.
2019
2020.. note::
2021
2022   Port configuration changes only become active when forwarding is started/restarted.
2023
2024port attach
2025~~~~~~~~~~~
2026
2027Attach a port specified by pci address or virtual device args::
2028
2029   testpmd> port attach (identifier)
2030
2031To attach a new pci device, the device should be recognized by kernel first.
2032Then it should be moved under DPDK management.
2033Finally the port can be attached to testpmd.
2034
2035For example, to move a pci device using ixgbe under DPDK management:
2036
2037.. code-block:: console
2038
2039   # Check the status of the available devices.
2040   ./usertools/dpdk-devbind.py --status
2041
2042   Network devices using DPDK-compatible driver
2043   ============================================
2044   <none>
2045
2046   Network devices using kernel driver
2047   ===================================
2048   0000:0a:00.0 '82599ES 10-Gigabit' if=eth2 drv=ixgbe unused=
2049
2050
2051   # Bind the device to igb_uio.
2052   sudo ./usertools/dpdk-devbind.py -b igb_uio 0000:0a:00.0
2053
2054
2055   # Recheck the status of the devices.
2056   ./usertools/dpdk-devbind.py --status
2057   Network devices using DPDK-compatible driver
2058   ============================================
2059   0000:0a:00.0 '82599ES 10-Gigabit' drv=igb_uio unused=
2060
2061To attach a port created by virtual device, above steps are not needed.
2062
2063For example, to attach a port whose pci address is 0000:0a:00.0.
2064
2065.. code-block:: console
2066
2067   testpmd> port attach 0000:0a:00.0
2068   Attaching a new port...
2069   EAL: PCI device 0000:0a:00.0 on NUMA socket -1
2070   EAL:   probe driver: 8086:10fb rte_ixgbe_pmd
2071   EAL:   PCI memory mapped at 0x7f83bfa00000
2072   EAL:   PCI memory mapped at 0x7f83bfa80000
2073   PMD: eth_ixgbe_dev_init(): MAC: 2, PHY: 18, SFP+: 5
2074   PMD: eth_ixgbe_dev_init(): port 0 vendorID=0x8086 deviceID=0x10fb
2075   Port 0 is attached. Now total ports is 1
2076   Done
2077
2078For example, to attach a port created by pcap PMD.
2079
2080.. code-block:: console
2081
2082   testpmd> port attach net_pcap0
2083   Attaching a new port...
2084   PMD: Initializing pmd_pcap for net_pcap0
2085   PMD: Creating pcap-backed ethdev on numa socket 0
2086   Port 0 is attached. Now total ports is 1
2087   Done
2088
2089In this case, identifier is ``net_pcap0``.
2090This identifier format is the same as ``--vdev`` format of DPDK applications.
2091
2092For example, to re-attach a bonded port which has been previously detached,
2093the mode and slave parameters must be given.
2094
2095.. code-block:: console
2096
2097   testpmd> port attach net_bond_0,mode=0,slave=1
2098   Attaching a new port...
2099   EAL: Initializing pmd_bond for net_bond_0
2100   EAL: Create bonded device net_bond_0 on port 0 in mode 0 on socket 0.
2101   Port 0 is attached. Now total ports is 1
2102   Done
2103
2104
2105port detach
2106~~~~~~~~~~~
2107
2108Detach a specific port::
2109
2110   testpmd> port detach (port_id)
2111
2112Before detaching a port, the port should be stopped and closed.
2113
2114For example, to detach a pci device port 0.
2115
2116.. code-block:: console
2117
2118   testpmd> port stop 0
2119   Stopping ports...
2120   Done
2121   testpmd> port close 0
2122   Closing ports...
2123   Done
2124
2125   testpmd> port detach 0
2126   Detaching a port...
2127   EAL: PCI device 0000:0a:00.0 on NUMA socket -1
2128   EAL:   remove driver: 8086:10fb rte_ixgbe_pmd
2129   EAL:   PCI memory unmapped at 0x7f83bfa00000
2130   EAL:   PCI memory unmapped at 0x7f83bfa80000
2131   Done
2132
2133
2134For example, to detach a virtual device port 0.
2135
2136.. code-block:: console
2137
2138   testpmd> port stop 0
2139   Stopping ports...
2140   Done
2141   testpmd> port close 0
2142   Closing ports...
2143   Done
2144
2145   testpmd> port detach 0
2146   Detaching a port...
2147   PMD: Closing pcap ethdev on numa socket 0
2148   Port 'net_pcap0' is detached. Now total ports is 0
2149   Done
2150
2151To remove a pci device completely from the system, first detach the port from testpmd.
2152Then the device should be moved under kernel management.
2153Finally the device can be removed using kernel pci hotplug functionality.
2154
2155For example, to move a pci device under kernel management:
2156
2157.. code-block:: console
2158
2159   sudo ./usertools/dpdk-devbind.py -b ixgbe 0000:0a:00.0
2160
2161   ./usertools/dpdk-devbind.py --status

2242
2243port config - queues/descriptors
2244~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
2245
2246Set number of queues/descriptors for rxq, txq, rxd and txd::
2247
2248   testpmd> port config all (rxq|txq|rxd|txd) (value)
2249
2250This is equivalent to the ``--rxq``, ``--txq``, ``--rxd`` and ``--txd`` command-line options.
2251
2252port config - max-pkt-len
2253~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
2254

2276
2277Packet dropping when no receive buffers available is off by default.
2278
2279The ``on`` option is equivalent to the ``--enable-drop-en`` command-line option.
2280
2281port config - RSS
2282~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
2283

2287
2288RSS is on by default.
2289
2290The ``all`` option is equivalent to eth|vlan|ip|tcp|udp|sctp|ether|l2tpv3|esp|ah|pfcp.
2291
2292The ``default`` option enables all supported RSS types reported by device info.

2447device detach
2448~~~~~~~~~~~~~
2449
2450Detach a device specified by pci address or virtual device args::
2451
2452   testpmd> device detach (identifier)
2453
2454Before detaching a device associated with ports, the ports should be stopped and closed.
2455
2456For example, to detach a pci device whose address is 0002:03:00.0.
2457
2458.. code-block:: console
2459
2460    testpmd> device detach 0002:03:00.0
2461    Removing a device...
2462    Port 1 is now closed
2463    EAL: Releasing pci mapped resource for 0002:03:00.0
2464    EAL: Calling pci_unmap_resource for 0002:03:00.0 at 0x218a050000
2465    EAL: Calling pci_unmap_resource for 0002:03:00.0 at 0x218c050000
2466    Device 0002:03:00.0 is detached
2467    Now total ports is 1
2468
2469For example, to detach a port created by pcap PMD.
2470
2471.. code-block:: console
2472
2473    testpmd> device detach net_pcap0
2474    Removing a device...
2475    Port 0 is now closed
2476    Device net_pcap0 is detached
2477    Now total ports is 0
2478    Done
2479
2480In this case, identifier is ``net_pcap0``.
2481This identifier format is the same as ``--vdev`` format of DPDK applications.
2482
2483Link Bonding Functions
2484----------------------

2509
2510   testpmd> add bonding slave 6 10
2511
2512
2513remove bonding slave
2514~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
2515
2516Removes an Ethernet slave device from a Link Bonding device::

2563
2564For example, set a Link Bonding device (port 10) to use a balance policy of layer 3+4 (IP addresses & UDP ports)::
2565
2566   testpmd> set bonding xmit_balance_policy 10 l34
2567
2568
2569set bonding mon_period
2570~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

3398
3399flow_director_filter
3400~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
3401
3402The Flow Director works in receive mode to identify specific flows or sets of flows and route them to specific queues.
3403
3404Four types of filtering are supported which are referred to as Perfect Match, Signature, Perfect-mac-vlan and
3405Perfect-tunnel filters, the match mode is set by the ``--pkt-filter-mode`` command-line parameter:
3406
3407* Perfect match filters.
3408  The hardware checks a match between the masked fields of the received packets and the programmed filters.
3409  The masked fields are for IP flow.
3410
3411* Signature filters.
3412  The hardware checks a match between a hash-based signature of the masked fields of the received packet.
3413
3414* Perfect-mac-vlan match filters.
3415  The hardware checks a match between the masked fields of the received packets and the programmed filters.
3416  The masked fields are for MAC VLAN flow.
3417
3418* Perfect-tunnel match filters.
3419  The hardware checks a match between the masked fields of the received packets and the programmed filters.
3420  The masked fields are for tunnel flow.
3421
3422* Perfect-raw-flow-type match filters.
3423  The hardware checks a match between the masked fields of the received packets and pre-loaded raw (template) packet.
3424  The masked fields are specified by input sets.
3425
3426The Flow Director filters can match the different fields for different type of packet: flow type, specific input set
3427per flow type and the flexible payload.
3428
3429The Flow Director can also mask out parts of all of these fields so that filters
3430are only applied to certain fields or parts of the fields.
3431
3432Note that for raw flow type mode the source and destination fields in the
3433raw packet buffer need to be presented in a reversed order with respect
3434to the expected received packets.
3435For example: IP source and destination addresses or TCP/UDP/SCTP
3436source and destination ports
3437
3438Different NICs may have different capabilities, command show port fdir (port_id) can be used to acquire the information.

3659Flow rules management
3660---------------------
3661
3662Control of the generic flow API (*rte_flow*) is fully exposed through the
3663``flow`` command (validation, creation, destruction, queries and operation
3664modes).
3665
3666Considering *rte_flow* overlaps with all `Filter Functions`_, using both
3667features simultaneously may cause undefined side-effects and is therefore
3668not recommended.
3669
3670``flow`` syntax
3671~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
3672
3673Because the ``flow`` command uses dynamic tokens to handle the large number
3674of possible flow rules combinations, its behavior differs slightly from
3675other commands, in particular:
3676
3677- Pressing *?* or the *<tab>* key displays contextual help for the current
3678  token, not that of the entire command.
3679
3680- Optional and repeated parameters are supported (provided they are listed
3681  in the contextual help).
3682
3683The first parameter stands for the operation mode. Possible operations and
3684their general syntax are described below. They are covered in detail in the
3685following sections.
3686
3687- Check whether a flow rule can be created::
3688
3689   flow validate {port_id}
3690       [group {group_id}] [priority {level}] [ingress] [egress] [transfer]
3691       pattern {item} [/ {item} [...]] / end
3692       actions {action} [/ {action} [...]] / end
3693
3694- Create a flow rule::
3695
3696   flow create {port_id}
3697       [group {group_id}] [priority {level}] [ingress] [egress] [transfer]
3698       pattern {item} [/ {item} [...]] / end
3699       actions {action} [/ {action} [...]] / end
3700
3701- Destroy specific flow rules::
3702
3703   flow destroy {port_id} rule {rule_id} [...]
3704
3705- Destroy all flow rules::
3706
3707   flow flush {port_id}
3708
3709- Query an existing flow rule::
3710
3711   flow query {port_id} {rule_id} {action}
3712
3713- List existing flow rules sorted by priority, filtered by group
3714  identifiers::
3715
3716   flow list {port_id} [group {group_id}] [...]
3717
3718- Restrict ingress traffic to the defined flow rules::
3719
3720   flow isolate {port_id} {boolean}
3721
3722- Dump internal representation information of all flows in hardware::
3723
3724   flow dump {port_id} {output_file}
3725
3726- List and destroy aged flow rules::
3727
3728   flow aged {port_id} [destroy]
3729
3730Validating flow rules
3731~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
3732
3733``flow validate`` reports whether a flow rule would be accepted by the
3734underlying device in its current state but stops short of creating it. It is
3735bound to ``rte_flow_validate()``::
3736
3737   flow validate {port_id}
3738      [group {group_id}] [priority {level}] [ingress] [egress] [transfer]
3739      pattern {item} [/ {item} [...]] / end
3740      actions {action} [/ {action} [...]] / end
3741
3742If successful, it will show::
3743
3744   Flow rule validated
3745
3746Otherwise it will show an error message of the form::
3747
3748   Caught error type [...] ([...]): [...]
3749
3750This command uses the same parameters as ``flow create``, their format is
3751described in `Creating flow rules`_.
3752
3753Check whether redirecting any Ethernet packet received on port 0 to RX queue
3754index 6 is supported::
3755
3756   testpmd> flow validate 0 ingress pattern eth / end
3757      actions queue index 6 / end
3758   Flow rule validated
3759   testpmd>
3760
3761Port 0 does not support TCPv6 rules::
3762
3763   testpmd> flow validate 0 ingress pattern eth / ipv6 / tcp / end
3764      actions drop / end
3765   Caught error type 9 (specific pattern item): Invalid argument
3766   testpmd>
3767
3768Creating flow rules
3769~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
3770
3771``flow create`` validates and creates the specified flow rule. It is bound
3772to ``rte_flow_create()``::
3773
3774   flow create {port_id}
3775      [group {group_id}] [priority {level}] [ingress] [egress] [transfer]
3776      pattern {item} [/ {item} [...]] / end
3777      actions {action} [/ {action} [...]] / end
3778
3779If successful, it will return a flow rule ID usable with other commands::
3780
3781   Flow rule #[...] created
3782
3783Otherwise it will show an error message of the form::
3784
3785   Caught error type [...] ([...]): [...]
3786
3787Parameters describe in the following order:
3788
3789- Attributes (*group*, *priority*, *ingress*, *egress*, *transfer* tokens).
3790- A matching pattern, starting with the *pattern* token and terminated by an
3791  *end* pattern item.
3792- Actions, starting with the *actions* token and terminated by an *end*
3793  action.
3794
3795These translate directly to *rte_flow* objects provided as-is to the
3796underlying functions.
3797
3798The shortest valid definition only comprises mandatory tokens::
3799
3800   testpmd> flow create 0 pattern end actions end
3801
3802Note that PMDs may refuse rules that essentially do nothing such as this
3803one.
3804
3805**All unspecified object values are automatically initialized to 0.**
3806
3807Attributes
3808^^^^^^^^^^
3809
3810These tokens affect flow rule attributes (``struct rte_flow_attr``) and are
3811specified before the ``pattern`` token.
3812
3813- ``group {group id}``: priority group.
3814- ``priority {level}``: priority level within group.
3815- ``ingress``: rule applies to ingress traffic.
3816- ``egress``: rule applies to egress traffic.
3817- ``transfer``: apply rule directly to endpoints found in pattern.
3818
3819Each instance of an attribute specified several times overrides the previous
3820value as shown below (group 4 is used)::
3821
3822   testpmd> flow create 0 group 42 group 24 group 4 [...]
3823
3824Note that once enabled, ``ingress`` and ``egress`` cannot be disabled.
3825
3826While not specifying a direction is an error, some rules may allow both
3827simultaneously.
3828
3829Most rules affect RX therefore contain the ``ingress`` token::
3830
3831   testpmd> flow create 0 ingress pattern [...]
3832
3833Matching pattern
3834^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
3835
3836A matching pattern starts after the ``pattern`` token. It is made of pattern
3837items and is terminated by a mandatory ``end`` item.
3838
3839Items are named after their type (*RTE_FLOW_ITEM_TYPE_* from ``enum
3840rte_flow_item_type``).
3841
3842The ``/`` token is used as a separator between pattern items as shown
3843below::
3844
3845   testpmd> flow create 0 ingress pattern eth / ipv4 / udp / end [...]
3846
3847Note that protocol items like these must be stacked from lowest to highest
3848layer to make sense. For instance, the following rule is either invalid or
3849unlikely to match any packet::
3850
3851   testpmd> flow create 0 ingress pattern eth / udp / ipv4 / end [...]
3852
3853More information on these restrictions can be found in the *rte_flow*
3854documentation.
3855
3856Several items support additional specification structures, for example
3857``ipv4`` allows specifying source and destination addresses as follows::
3858
3859   testpmd> flow create 0 ingress pattern eth / ipv4 src is 10.1.1.1
3860      dst is 10.2.0.0 / end [...]
3861
3862This rule matches all IPv4 traffic with the specified properties.
3863
3864In this example, ``src`` and ``dst`` are field names of the underlying
3865``struct rte_flow_item_ipv4`` object. All item properties can be specified
3866in a similar fashion.
3867
3868The ``is`` token means that the subsequent value must be matched exactly,
3869and assigns ``spec`` and ``mask`` fields in ``struct rte_flow_item``
3870accordingly. Possible assignment tokens are:
3871
3872- ``is``: match value perfectly (with full bit-mask).
3873- ``spec``: match value according to configured bit-mask.
3874- ``last``: specify upper bound to establish a range.
3875- ``mask``: specify bit-mask with relevant bits set to one.
3876- ``prefix``: generate bit-mask with <prefix-length> most-significant bits set to one.
3877
3878These yield identical results::
3879
3880   ipv4 src is 10.1.1.1
3881
3882::
3883
3884   ipv4 src spec 10.1.1.1 src mask 255.255.255.255
3885
3886::
3887
3888   ipv4 src spec 10.1.1.1 src prefix 32
3889
3890::
3891
3892   ipv4 src is 10.1.1.1 src last 10.1.1.1 # range with a single value
3893
3894::
3895
3896   ipv4 src is 10.1.1.1 src last 0 # 0 disables range
3897
3898Inclusive ranges can be defined with ``last``::
3899
3900   ipv4 src is 10.1.1.1 src last 10.2.3.4 # 10.1.1.1 to 10.2.3.4
3901
3902Note that ``mask`` affects both ``spec`` and ``last``::
3903
3904   ipv4 src is 10.1.1.1 src last 10.2.3.4 src mask 255.255.0.0
3905      # matches 10.1.0.0 to 10.2.255.255
3906
3907Properties can be modified multiple times::
3908
3909   ipv4 src is 10.1.1.1 src is 10.1.2.3 src is 10.2.3.4 # matches 10.2.3.4
3910
3911::
3912
3913   ipv4 src is 10.1.1.1 src prefix 24 src prefix 16 # matches 10.1.0.0/16

4117
4118Actions list
4119^^^^^^^^^^^^
4120
4121A list of actions starts after the ``actions`` token in the same fashion as
4122`Matching pattern`_; actions are separated by ``/`` tokens and the list is
4123terminated by a mandatory ``end`` action.
4124
4125Actions are named after their type (*RTE_FLOW_ACTION_TYPE_* from ``enum
4126rte_flow_action_type``).
4127
4128Dropping all incoming UDPv4 packets can be expressed as follows::
4129
4130   testpmd> flow create 0 ingress pattern eth / ipv4 / udp / end
4131      actions drop / end
4132
4133Several actions have configurable properties which must be specified when
4134there is no valid default value. For example, ``queue`` requires a target
4135queue index.
4136
4137This rule redirects incoming UDPv4 traffic to queue index 6::
4138
4139   testpmd> flow create 0 ingress pattern eth / ipv4 / udp / end
4140      actions queue index 6 / end
4141
4142While this one could be rejected by PMDs (unspecified queue index)::
4143
4144   testpmd> flow create 0 ingress pattern eth / ipv4 / udp / end
4145      actions queue / end
4146
4147As defined by *rte_flow*, the list is not ordered, all actions of a given
4148rule are performed simultaneously. These are equivalent::
4149
4150   queue index 6 / void / mark id 42 / end
4151
4152::
4153
4154   void / mark id 42 / queue index 6 / end
4155
4156All actions in a list should have different types, otherwise only the last
4157action of a given type is taken into account::
4158
4159   queue index 4 / queue index 5 / queue index 6 / end # will use queue 6
4160
4161::
4162
4163   drop / drop / drop / end # drop is performed only once
4164
4165::
4166
4167   mark id 42 / queue index 3 / mark id 24 / end # mark will be 24
4168
4169Considering they are performed simultaneously, opposite and overlapping
4170actions can sometimes be combined when the end result is unambiguous::
4171
4172   drop / queue index 6 / end # drop has no effect
4173
4174::
4175
4176   queue index 6 / rss queues 6 7 8 / end # queue has no effect
4177
4178::
4179
4180   drop / passthru / end # drop has no effect
4181
4182Note that PMDs may still refuse such combinations.
4183

4385Destroying flow rules
4386~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
4387
4388``flow destroy`` destroys one or more rules from their rule ID (as returned
4389by ``flow create``), this command calls ``rte_flow_destroy()`` as many
4390times as necessary::
4391
4392   flow destroy {port_id} rule {rule_id} [...]
4393
4394If successful, it will show::
4395
4396   Flow rule #[...] destroyed
4397
4398It does not report anything for rule IDs that do not exist. The usual error
4399message is shown when a rule cannot be destroyed::
4400
4401   Caught error type [...] ([...]): [...]
4402
4403``flow flush`` destroys all rules on a device and does not take extra
4404arguments. It is bound to ``rte_flow_flush()``::
4405
4406   flow flush {port_id}
4407
4408Any errors are reported as above.
4409
4410Creating several rules and destroying them::
4411
4412   testpmd> flow create 0 ingress pattern eth / ipv6 / end
4413      actions queue index 2 / end
4414   Flow rule #0 created
4415   testpmd> flow create 0 ingress pattern eth / ipv4 / end
4416      actions queue index 3 / end
4417   Flow rule #1 created
4418   testpmd> flow destroy 0 rule 0 rule 1
4419   Flow rule #1 destroyed
4420   Flow rule #0 destroyed
4421   testpmd>
4422
4423The same result can be achieved using ``flow flush``::
4424
4425   testpmd> flow create 0 ingress pattern eth / ipv6 / end
4426      actions queue index 2 / end
4427   Flow rule #0 created
4428   testpmd> flow create 0 ingress pattern eth / ipv4 / end
4429      actions queue index 3 / end
4430   Flow rule #1 created
4431   testpmd> flow flush 0
4432   testpmd>
4433
4434Non-existent rule IDs are ignored::
4435
4436   testpmd> flow create 0 ingress pattern eth / ipv6 / end
4437      actions queue index 2 / end
4438   Flow rule #0 created
4439   testpmd> flow create 0 ingress pattern eth / ipv4 / end
4440      actions queue index 3 / end
4441   Flow rule #1 created
4442   testpmd> flow destroy 0 rule 42 rule 10 rule 2
4443   testpmd>
4444   testpmd> flow destroy 0 rule 0
4445   Flow rule #0 destroyed
4446   testpmd>
4447
4448Querying flow rules
4449~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
4450
4451``flow query`` queries a specific action of a flow rule having that
4452ability. Such actions collect information that can be reported using this
4453command. It is bound to ``rte_flow_query()``::
4454
4455   flow query {port_id} {rule_id} {action}
4456
4457If successful, it will display either the retrieved data for known actions
4458or the following message::
4459
4460   Cannot display result for action type [...] ([...])
4461
4462Otherwise, it will complain either that the rule does not exist or that some
4463error occurred::
4464
4465   Flow rule #[...] not found
4466
4467::
4468
4469   Caught error type [...] ([...]): [...]
4470
4471Currently only the ``count`` action is supported. This action reports the
4472number of packets that hit the flow rule and the total number of bytes. Its
4473output has the following format::
4474
4475   count:
4476    hits_set: [...] # whether "hits" contains a valid value
4477    bytes_set: [...] # whether "bytes" contains a valid value
4478    hits: [...] # number of packets
4479    bytes: [...] # number of bytes
4480
4481Querying counters for TCPv6 packets redirected to queue 6::
4482
4483   testpmd> flow create 0 ingress pattern eth / ipv6 / tcp / end
4484      actions queue index 6 / count / end
4485   Flow rule #4 created
4486   testpmd> flow query 0 4 count
4487   count:
4488    hits_set: 1
4489    bytes_set: 0
4490    hits: 386446
4491    bytes: 0
4492   testpmd>
4493
4494Listing flow rules
4495~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
4496
4497``flow list`` lists existing flow rules sorted by priority and optionally
4498filtered by group identifiers::
4499
4500   flow list {port_id} [group {group_id}] [...]
4501
4502This command only fails with the following message if the device does not
4503exist::
4504
4505   Invalid port [...]
4506
4507Output consists of a header line followed by a short description of each
4508flow rule, one per line. There is no output at all when no flow rules are
4509configured on the device::
4510
4511   ID      Group   Prio    Attr    Rule
4512   [...]   [...]   [...]   [...]   [...]
4513
4514``Attr`` column flags:
4515
4516- ``i`` for ``ingress``.
4517- ``e`` for ``egress``.
4518
4519Creating several flow rules and listing them::
4520
4521   testpmd> flow create 0 ingress pattern eth / ipv4 / end
4522      actions queue index 6 / end
4523   Flow rule #0 created
4524   testpmd> flow create 0 ingress pattern eth / ipv6 / end
4525      actions queue index 2 / end
4526   Flow rule #1 created
4527   testpmd> flow create 0 priority 5 ingress pattern eth / ipv4 / udp / end
4528      actions rss queues 6 7 8 end / end
4529   Flow rule #2 created
4530   testpmd> flow list 0
4531   ID      Group   Prio    Attr    Rule
4532   0       0       0       i-      ETH IPV4 => QUEUE
4533   1       0       0       i-      ETH IPV6 => QUEUE
4534   2       0       5       i-      ETH IPV4 UDP => RSS
4535   testpmd>
4536
4537Rules are sorted by priority (i.e. group ID first, then priority level)::
4538
4539   testpmd> flow list 1
4540   ID      Group   Prio    Attr    Rule
4541   0       0       0       i-      ETH => COUNT
4542   6       0       500     i-      ETH IPV6 TCP => DROP COUNT
4543   5       0       1000    i-      ETH IPV6 ICMP => QUEUE
4544   1       24      0       i-      ETH IPV4 UDP => QUEUE
4545   4       24      10      i-      ETH IPV4 TCP => DROP
4546   3       24      20      i-      ETH IPV4 => DROP
4547   2       24      42      i-      ETH IPV4 UDP => QUEUE
4548   7       63      0       i-      ETH IPV6 UDP VXLAN => MARK QUEUE
4549   testpmd>
4550
4551Output can be limited to specific groups::
4552
4553   testpmd> flow list 1 group 0 group 63
4554   ID      Group   Prio    Attr    Rule
4555   0       0       0       i-      ETH => COUNT
4556   6       0       500     i-      ETH IPV6 TCP => DROP COUNT
4557   5       0       1000    i-      ETH IPV6 ICMP => QUEUE
4558   7       63      0       i-      ETH IPV6 UDP VXLAN => MARK QUEUE
4559   testpmd>
4560
4561Toggling isolated mode
4562~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
4563
4564``flow isolate`` can be used to tell the underlying PMD that ingress traffic
4565must only be injected from the defined flow rules; that no default traffic
4566is expected outside those rules and the driver is free to assign more
4567resources to handle them. It is bound to ``rte_flow_isolate()``::
4568
4569 flow isolate {port_id} {boolean}
4570
4571If successful, enabling or disabling isolated mode shows either::
4572
4573 Ingress traffic on port [...]
4574    is now restricted to the defined flow rules
4575
4576Or::
4577
4578 Ingress traffic on port [...]
4579    is not restricted anymore to the defined flow rules
4580
4581Otherwise, in case of error::
4582
4583   Caught error type [...] ([...]): [...]
4584
4585Mainly due to its side effects, PMDs supporting this mode may not have the
4586ability to toggle it more than once without reinitializing affected ports
4587first (e.g. by exiting testpmd).
4588
4589Enabling isolated mode::
4590
4591 testpmd> flow isolate 0 true
4592 Ingress traffic on port 0 is now restricted to the defined flow rules
4593 testpmd>
4594
4595Disabling isolated mode::
4596
4597 testpmd> flow isolate 0 false
4598 Ingress traffic on port 0 is not restricted anymore to the defined flow rules
4599 testpmd>
4600
4601Dumping HW internal information
4602~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
4603
4604``flow dump`` dumps the hardware's internal representation information of
4605all flows. It is bound to ``rte_flow_dev_dump()``::
4606
4607   flow dump {port_id} {output_file}
4608
4609If successful, it will show::
4610
4611   Flow dump finished
4612
4613Otherwise, it will complain error occurred::
4614
4615   Caught error type [...] ([...]): [...]
4616
4617Listing and destroying aged flow rules
4618~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
4619
4620``flow aged`` simply lists aged flow rules be get from api ``rte_flow_get_aged_flows``,
4621and ``destroy`` parameter can be used to destroy those flow rules in PMD.
4622
4623   flow aged {port_id} [destroy]
4624
4625Listing current aged flow rules::
4626
4627   testpmd> flow aged 0
4628   Port 0 total aged flows: 0
4629   testpmd> flow create 0 ingress pattern eth / ipv4 src is 2.2.2.14 / end
4630      actions age timeout 5 / queue index 0 /  end
4631   Flow rule #0 created
4632   testpmd> flow create 0 ingress pattern eth / ipv4 src is 2.2.2.15 / end
4633      actions age timeout 4 / queue index 0 /  end
4634   Flow rule #1 created
4635   testpmd> flow create 0 ingress pattern eth / ipv4 src is 2.2.2.16 / end
4636      actions age timeout 2 / queue index 0 /  end
4637   Flow rule #2 created
4638   testpmd> flow create 0 ingress pattern eth / ipv4 src is 2.2.2.17 / end
4639      actions age timeout 3 / queue index 0 /  end
4640   Flow rule #3 created
4641
4642
4643Aged Rules are simply list as command ``flow list {port_id}``, but strip the detail rule
4644information, all the aged flows are sorted by the longest timeout time. For example, if
4645those rules be configured in the same time, ID 2 will be the first aged out rule, the next
4646will be ID 3, ID 1, ID 0::
4647
4648   testpmd> flow aged 0
4649   Port 0 total aged flows: 4
4650   ID      Group   Prio    Attr
4651   2       0       0       i--
4652   3       0       0       i--
4653   1       0       0       i--
4654   0       0       0       i--
4655
4656If attach ``destroy`` parameter, the command will destroy all the list aged flow rules.
4657
4658   testpmd> flow aged 0 destroy
4659   Port 0 total aged flows: 4
4660   ID      Group   Prio    Attr
4661   2       0       0       i--
4662   3       0       0       i--
4663   1       0       0       i--
4664   0       0       0       i--
4665
4666   Flow rule #2 destroyed
4667   Flow rule #3 destroyed
4668   Flow rule #1 destroyed
4669   Flow rule #0 destroyed
4670   4 flows be destroyed
4671   testpmd> flow aged 0
4672   Port 0 total aged flows: 0
4673
4674
4675Sample QinQ flow rules
4676~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
4677
4678Before creating QinQ rule(s) the following commands should be issued to enable QinQ::
4679
4680   testpmd> port stop 0
4681   testpmd> vlan set qinq_strip on 0
4682
4683The above command sets the inner and outer TPID's to 0x8100.
4684
4685To change the TPID's the following commands should be used::

5040BPF Functions
5041--------------
5042
5043The following sections show functions to load/unload eBPF based filters.
5044
5045bpf-load
5046~~~~~~~~
5047
5048Load an eBPF program as a callback for particular RX/TX queue::
5049
5050   testpmd> bpf-load rx|tx (portid) (queueid) (load-flags) (bpf-prog-filename)
5051
5052The available load-flags are:
5053
5054* ``J``: use JIT generated native code, otherwise BPF interpreter will be used.
5055
5056* ``M``: assume input parameter is a pointer to rte_mbuf, otherwise assume it is a pointer to first segment's data.
5057
5058* ``-``: none.
5059
5060.. note::
5061
5062   You'll need clang v3.7 or above to build bpf program you'd like to load
5063
5064For example:
5065
5066.. code-block:: console
5067
5068   cd examples/bpf
5069   clang -O2 -target bpf -c t1.c
5070
5071Then to load (and JIT compile) t1.o at RX queue 0, port 1:
5072
5073.. code-block:: console
5074
5075   testpmd> bpf-load rx 1 0 J ./dpdk.org/examples/bpf/t1.o
5076
5077To load (not JITed) t1.o at TX queue 0, port 0:
5078
5079.. code-block:: console
5080
5081   testpmd> bpf-load tx 0 0 - ./dpdk.org/examples/bpf/t1.o
5082
5083bpf-unload
5084~~~~~~~~~~
5085
5086Unload previously loaded eBPF program for particular RX/TX queue::
5087
5088   testpmd> bpf-unload rx|tx (portid) (queueid)
5089
5090For example to unload BPF filter from TX queue 0, port 0:
5091
5092.. code-block:: console
