Description Franck Baudin 2016-05-13 12:20:13 UTC
Description of problem:
RHEL 7.3 include OVS+DPDK based on OVS 2.5 and DPDK 2.2. These components should be updated to more recent version, typically  OVS 2.6 and DPDK 16.07 or even more recent. The exact version will depends on upstream pace and version of DIDPK supported by OVS.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
Seen in RHEL 7.3, to be fixed in RHEL 7.4

Additional info:
This is mainly a tracking BZ until the end of August 2016.

The following seven test suites have been run with ovs-2.6.1-2 and dpdk-16.11-2, and all tests passed.


== OVS general test-suite --- Non-DPDK ==
 * kernel/networking/openvswitch/perf_check/ over 40 Gb cxgb4.
 * https://beaker.engineering.redhat.com/jobs/1632394
 * All 216 netperf tests passed.

== DPDK only ==
=== Xena to testpmd/Host ===
 * Due to change of dpdk_nic_bind to dpdk-devbind the existing beaker
automation failed. All tests have been tested via scripts.
 * single stream with size={64, 256, 1024}; for 64 bytes got 14.88 Mpps.
 * 32 streams size={64, 256, 1024}; for 64 bytes got 14.88 Mpps.
 * All tests passed.
 * No issues identified.

=== Namespace -> Host testpmd -> Namespace ===
 * netperf {TCP_STREAM, TCP_MAERTS, TCP_CRR, TCP_RR}
 * netperf UDP_STREAM message={64, 1024,1454}
 * All tests passed.
 * No issues identified.

== Xena to vhostuser testpmd 4Q ==
 * Due to change of dpdk_nic_bind to dpdk-devbind the existing beaker
automation failed.
 * With 64 bytes packet got 14.88 Mpps.
 * An issue was identified ---

== OVS-dpdk vxlan tunneling testing ==
 * Concurrent netperf tests between two 4Q vhostusers over a OVS-dpdk
vxlan tunne/ixgbe dpdk interface.
 * netperf {TCP_STREAM, TCP_MAERTS} with concurrent streams={1,2,4,8,32,64}
 * netperf UDP_STREAM with message size={64,256,1024,65507} and
concurrency={1,2,4,8,32,64}
 * All tests passed.

== OVS-dpdk bonding testing ==
 * Concurrent netperf tests between two 4Q vhostusers over a lacp
balance-tcp  OVS-dpdk bond/ixgbe dpdk interface.
 * netperf {TCP_STREAM, TCP_MAERTS} with concurrent streams={1,2,4,8,32,64}
 * netperf UDP_STREAM with message size={64,256,1024,65507} and
concurrency={1,2,4,8,32,64}
 * All tests passed.

== Driverctl testing ==
 * Installed driverctl rpm.
 * Ran driverctl with various commands.
 * Wrote a brief eport:
