dpdk-graph Application
======================
The ``dpdk-graph`` tool is a Data Plane Development Kit (DPDK)
application that allows exercising various graph use cases.
This application has a generic framework to add new graph based use cases
to verify functionality.
Each use case is defined as a ``<usecase>.cli`` file.
Based on the input file, application creates a graph to cater the use case.
Also this application framework can be used by other graph-based applications.
Running the Application
-----------------------
The application has a number of command line options
which can be provided in following syntax:
.. code-block:: console
dpdk-graph [EAL Options] -- [application options]
EAL Options
~~~~~~~~~~~
Following are the EAL command-line options that can be used in conjunction
with the ``dpdk-graph`` application.
See the DPDK Getting Started Guides for more information on these options.
``-c <COREMASK>`` or ``-l <CORELIST>``
Set the hexadecimal bit mask of the cores to run on.
The CORELIST is a list of cores to be used.
Application Options
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Following are the application command-line options:
``-h``
Set the host IPv4 address over which telnet session can be opened.
It is an optional parameter. Default host address is ``0.0.0.0``.
``-p``
Set the L4 port number over which telnet session can be opened.
It is an optional parameter. Default port is ``8086``.
``-s``
Script name with absolute path which specifies the use case.
It is a mandatory parameter which will be used
to create desired graph for a given use case.
``--enable-graph-stats``
Enable graph statistics printing on console.
By default, graph statistics are disabled.
``--help``
Dumps application usage.
Supported Use cases
-------------------
l3fwd
~~~~~
This use case is supported for both H/W and PCAP vdev network devices.
To demonstrate, corresponding ``.cli`` files are available at ``app/graph/examples/``
named as ``l3fwd.cli`` and ``l3fwd_pcap.cli`` respectively.
l2fwd
~~~~~
This use case is supported for both H/W and PCAP vdev network devices.
To demonstrate, corresponding ``.cli`` files are available at ``app/graph/examples/``
named as ``l2fwd.cli`` and ``l2fwd_pcap.cli`` respectively.
Example Commands
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
For H/W devices
.. code-block:: console
./dpdk-graph -c 0xff -a 0002:02:00.0 -a 0002:03:00.0 --
-s <dpdk_root_dir>/app/graph/examples/l3fwd.cli
./dpdk-graph -c 0xff -a 0002:02:00.0 -a 0002:03:00.0 --
-s <dpdk_root_dir>/app/graph/examples/l2fwd.cli
For net_pcapX devices
.. code-block:: console
./dpdk-graph -c 0xff --vdev=net_pcap0,rx_pcap=in_net_pcap0.pcap,tx_pcap=out_net_pcap1.pcap
--vdev=net_pcap1,rx_pcap=in_net_pcap1.pcap,tx_pcap=out_net_pcap0.pcap
-- -s <dpdk_root_dir>/app/graph/examples/l3fwd_pcap.cli
./dpdk-graph -c 0xff --vdev=net_pcap0,rx_pcap=in_net_pcap0.pcap,tx_pcap=out_net_pcap1.pcap
--vdev=net_pcap1,rx_pcap=in_net_pcap1.pcap,tx_pcap=out_net_pcap0.pcap
-- -s <dpdk_root_dir>/app/graph/examples/l2fwd_pcap.cli
Verifying traffic
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
``l3fwd.cli`` and ``l3fwd_pcap.cli`` creates setup with two network ports.
Routing between these ports are done by lookup node routing information.
For current use case, following routing table is used:
.. code-block:: console
DIP port
10.0.2.2 1
20.0.2.2 0
On the successful execution of ``l3fwd.cli`` or ``l3fwd_pcap.cli``,
user needs to send traffic with mentioned DIP.
For net_pcapX devices, required pcap file should be created and passed to application.
These pcap files can be created in several ways.
Scapy is one of the method to get the same:
.. code-block:: console
# scapy

Runtime configuration
---------------------
Application allows some configuration to be modified at runtime using a telnet session.
Application initiates a telnet server with host address ``0.0.0.0`` and port number ``8086``
by default.
If user passes ``-h`` and ``-p`` options while running application,
then corresponding IP address and port number will be used for telnet session.
After successful launch of application,
client can connect to application using given host & port
and console will be accessed with prompt ``graph>``.
Command to access a telnet session:
.. code-block:: console
telnet <host> <port>
Example: ``dpdk-graph`` is started with ``-h 10.28.35.207`` and ``-p 50000`` then
.. code-block:: console
$ telnet 10.28.35.207 50000
Trying 10.28.35.207...
Connected to 10.28.35.207.
Escape character is '^]'.
Welcome!

To exit the telnet session, type ``Ctrl + ]``.
This changes the ``graph>`` command prompt to ``telnet>`` command prompt.
Now running ``close`` or ``quit`` command on ``telnet>`` prompt
will terminate the telnet session.
Created graph for use case
--------------------------
On the successful execution of ``<usecase>.cli`` file, corresponding graph will be created.
This section mentions the created graph for each use case.
