4dpdk-test-eventdev Application
5==============================
6
7The ``dpdk-test-eventdev`` tool is a Data Plane Development Kit (DPDK)
8application that allows exercising various eventdev use cases.
9This application has a generic framework to add new eventdev based test cases to
10verify functionality and measure the performance parameters of DPDK eventdev
11devices.
12
13
14Running the Application
15-----------------------
16
17The application has a number of command line options:

245

248#. Verify the ingress order maintenance.
249#. Verify the exclusive(atomic) access to given atomic flow per eventdev port.

277   order queue test operation.
278
279The order queue test configures the eventdev with two queues and an event
280producer to inject the events to q0(ordered) queue. Both q0(ordered) and
281q1(atomic) are linked to all the workers.
282
283The event producer maintains a sequence number per flow and injects the events
284to the ordered queue. The worker receives the events from ordered queue and
285forwards to atomic queue. Since the events from an ordered queue can be
286processed in parallel on the different workers, the ingress order of events
287might have changed on the downstream atomic queue enqueue. On enqueue to the
288atomic queue, the eventdev PMD reorders the event to the original
289ingress order(i.e producer ingress order).
290
291When the event is dequeued from the atomic queue by the worker, this test
292verifies the expected sequence number of associated event per flow by comparing
293the free running expected sequence number per flow.

419   perf queue test operation.
420
421The perf queue test configures the eventdev with Q queues and P ports, where
422Q and P is a function of the number of workers, the number of producers and
423number of stages as mentioned in :numref:`table_eventdev_perf_queue_test`.
424
425The user can choose the number of workers, the number of producers and number of
426stages through the ``--wlcores``, ``--plcores`` and the ``--stlist`` application
427command line arguments respectively.
428
429The producer(s) injects the events to eventdev based on the first stage sched type
430list requested by the user through ``--stlist`` command line argument. It can
431inject a burst of events using ``--prod_enq_burst_sz`` command line argument.
432
433Based on the number of stages to process(selected through ``--stlist``),
434The application forwards the event to next upstream queue and terminates when it
435reaches the last stage in the pipeline. On event termination, application
436increments the number events processed and print periodically in one second
437to get the number of events processed in one second.
438
439When ``--fwd_latency`` command line option selected, the application inserts
440the timestamp in the event on the first stage and then on termination, it
441updates the number of cycles to forward a packet. The application uses this
442value to compute the average latency to a forward packet.
443
444When ``--prod_type_ethdev`` command line option is selected, the application
445uses the probed ethernet devices as producers by configuring them as Rx
446adapters instead of using synthetic producers.

557
558
559The ``all types queues(atq)`` perf test configures the eventdev with Q queues
560and P ports, where Q and P is a function of the number of workers and number of
561producers as mentioned in :numref:`table_eventdev_perf_atq_test`.
562
563
564The atq queue test functions as same as ``perf_queue`` test. The difference
565is, It uses, ``all type queue scheme`` instead of separate queues for each
566stage and thus reduces the number of queues required to realize the use case
567and enables flow pinning as the event does not move to the next queue.

672   pipeline queue test operation.
673
674The pipeline queue test configures the eventdev with Q queues and P ports,
675where Q and P is a function of the number of workers, the number of producers
676and number of stages as mentioned in :numref:`table_eventdev_pipeline_queue_test`.
677
678The user can choose the number of workers and number of stages through the
679``--wlcores`` and the ``--stlist`` application command line arguments
680respectively.
681
682The number of producers depends on the number of ethernet devices detected and
683each ethernet device is configured as a event_eth_rx_adapter that acts as a
684producer.
685
686The producer(s) injects the events to eventdev based the first stage sched type
687list requested by the user through ``--stlist`` the command line argument.
688
689Based on the number of stages to process(selected through ``--stlist``),
690The application forwards the event to next upstream queue and when it reaches
691the last stage in the pipeline if the event type is ``atomic`` it is enqueued
692onto ethdev Tx queue else to maintain ordering the event type is set to
693``atomic`` and enqueued onto the last stage queue.
694
695If the ethdev and eventdev pair have ``RTE_EVENT_ETH_TX_ADAPTER_CAP_INTERNAL_PORT``
696capability then the worker cores enqueue the packets to the eventdev directly
697using ``rte_event_eth_tx_adapter_enqueue`` else the worker cores enqueue the
698packet onto the ``SINGLE_LINK_QUEUE`` that is managed by the Tx adapter.
699The Tx adapter dequeues the packet and transmits it.
700
701On packet Tx, application increments the number events processed and print
702periodically in one second to get the number of events processed in one
703second.
