Introduction

This report aims to provide a comprehensive and self-explanatory summary of all CSIT test cases that have been executed against FD.io VPP-16.06 code release, driven by the automated test infrastructure developed within the FD.io CSIT project (FD.io Continuous System and Integration Testing).

CSIT source code for the executed test suites is available in CSIT branch stable/1606 in the directory ./tests/suites/<name_of_the_test_suite>. A local copy of CSIT source code can be obtained by cloning CSIT git repository ("git clone https://gerrit.fd.io/r/csit"). The CSIT testing virtual environment can be run on a local workstation/laptop/server using Vagrant by following the instructions in CSIT tutorials.

Followings sections provide brief description of CSIT performance and functional test suites executed against VPP-16.06 release (vpp branch stable/1606). Description of LF FD.io virtual and physical test environments is provided to aid anyone interested in reproducing the complete LF FD.io CSIT testing environment, in either virtual or physical test beds. The last two sections cover complete list of CSIT test suites and test cases executed against VPP-16.06 release (vpp branch stable/1606), with description and results per test case.

Functional tests description

Functional tests run on virtual testbeds which are created in VIRL running on a Cisco UCS C240 servers hosted in Linux Foundation labs. There is currently only one testbed topology being used for functional testing - a three node topology with two links between each pair of nodes as shown in this diagram:

        +--------+                      +--------+
        |        <---------------------->        |

                        +-------+

Virtual testbeds are created dynamically whenever a patch is submitted to gerrit and destroyed upon completion of all functional tests. During test execution, all nodes are reachable thru the MGMT network connected to every node via dedicated NICs and links (not shown above for clarity). Each node is a Virtual Machine and each connection that is drawn on the diagram is available for use in any test case.

For a subset of test cases that requires VPP to communicate over vhost-user interfaces, a nested VM is created on DUT1 and/or DUT2 for the duration of that particular test case only.

The following functional test suites are included in the CSIT-16.06 Release:

  • L2 Cross-Connect switching: Verification of L2 cross connection for untagged and QinQ double stacked 802.1Q vlans.
  • L2 Bridge-Domain switching: Verification of untagged L2 Bridge-Domain features.
  • VXLAN: Verification of VXLAN tunnelling with L2 Bridge-Domain, L2 Cross-Connect and Ethernet untagged and 802.1Q VLAN tagged.
  • IPv4: Verification of IPV4 untagged features including arp, acl, icmp, forwarding, etc.
  • DHCP: Verification of DHCP client.
  • IPv6: Verification of IPV6 untagged features including acl, icmpv6, forwarding, neighbor solicitation, etc.

  • GRE: Verification of GRE Tunnel Encapsulation.
  • LISP: Verification of untagged LISP dataplane and API functionality.
  • Honeycomb: Verification of the Honeycomb control plane interface.

Performance tests description

Performance tests run on physical testbeds hosted in Linux Foundation labs and consist of three Cisco UCS C240 servers each with 2x XEON CPUs (E5-2699v3 2.3GHz 18c). The logical testbed topology is fundamentally the same structure as the functional testbeds, but for any given tests, there is only a single link between each pair of nodes as shown in this diagram:

        +--------+                      +--------+
        |        |                      |        |
        |  DUT1  <---------------------->  DUT2  |
        |        |                      |        |
        +---^----+                      +----^---+
            |                                |
            |                                |
            |           +-------+            |
            |           |       |            |
            +----------->   TG  <------------+
                        |       |
                        +-------+

At a physical level there are actually five units of 10GE and 40GE NICs per DUT made by different vendors: Intel 2p10GE NICs (x520, x710), Intel 40GE NICs (xl710), Cisco 2p10GE VICs, Cisco 2p40GE VICs. During test execution, all nodes are reachable thru the MGMT network connected to every node via dedicated NICs and links (not shown above for clarity). Currently the performance tests only utilize one model of Intel NICs.

Because performance testing is run on physical test beds and some tests require a long time to complete, the performance test jobs have been split into short duration and long duration variants. The long jobs run all of the long performance test suites discovering the throughput rates, and are run on a periodic basis. The short jobs run the short performance test suites verifying thrughput against the reference rates, and are intended to be run against all VPP patches (although this is not currently enabled). There are also separate test suites for each NIC type.

The following performance test suites are included in the CSIT-16.06 Release:

  • Long performance test suites with Intel X520-DA2 (10 GbE):
    1. L2 Cross-Connect: NDR & PDR for forwarding of untagged and QinQ 801.2Q Vlan tagged packets.
    2. L2 Bridge-Domain: NDR & PDR for L2 Bridge Domain forwarding.
    3. IPv4: NDR & PDR for IPv4 routing.
    4. IPv6: NDR & PDR for IPv6 routing.
    5. COP Address Security: NDR & PDR for IPv4 and IPv6 with COP security.
  • Short performance test suites with Intel X520-DA2 (10 GbE):
    1. L2 Cross-Connect: untagged and QinQ 801.2Q Vlans.
    2. L2 Bridge-Domain: L2 Bridge Domain forwarding.
    3. IPv4: IPv4 routing.
    4. IPv6: IPv6 routing.
    5. COP Address Security: IPv4 and IPv6 with COP security.

Functional tests environment

CSIT functional tests are currently executed in VIRL, as mentioned above. The physical VIRL testbed infrastructure consists of three identical VIRL hosts, each host being a Cisco UCS C240-M4 (2x Intel(R) Xeon(R) CPU E5-2699 v3 @ 2.30GHz, 18c, 512GB RAM) running Ubuntu 14.04.3 and the following VIRL software versions:

 STD server version 0.10.24.7
 UWM server version 0.10.24.7

Whenever a patch is submitted to gerrit for review, one of the three VIRL hosts is selected randomly, and a three-node (TG+SUT1+SUT2), "double-ring" topology is created as a VIRL simulation on the selected host. The binary Debian VPP packages built by Jenkins for the patch under review are then installed on the two SUTs, along with their /etc/vpp/startup.conf file.

Current VPP 16.06 tests have been executed on a single VM operating system and version only, as described in the following paragraphs.

In order to enable future testing with different Operating Systems, or with different versions of the same Operating System, and simultaneously allowing others to reproduce tests in the exact same environment, CSIT has established a process where a candidate Operating System (currently only Ubuntu 14.04.4 LTS) plus all required packages are installed, and the versions of all installed packages are recorded. A separate tool then creates, and will continue to create at any point in the future, a disk image with these packages and their exact versions. Identical sets of disk images are created in QEMU/QCOW2 format for use within VIRL, and in VirtualBox format for use in the CSIT Vagrant environment.

In CSIT terminology, the VM operating system for both SUTs and TG that VPP 16.06 has been tested with, is the following:

 ubuntu-14.04.4_2016-05-25_1.0

which implies Ubuntu 14.04.4 LTS, current as of 2016/05/25 (that is, package versions are those that would have been installed by a "apt-get update", "apt-get upgrade" on May 25), produced by CSIT disk image build scripts version 1.0.

The exact list of installed packages and their versions (including the Linux kernel package version) are included in CSIT source repository:

 resources/tools/disk-image-builder/ubuntu/lists/ubuntu-14.04.4_2016-05-25_1.0

A replica of this VM image can be built by running the "build.sh" script in CSIT repository resources/tools/disk-image-builder/, or by downloading the Vagrant box from Atlas:

 https://atlas.hashicorp.com/fdio-csit/boxes/ubuntu-14.04.4_2016-05-25_1.0

In addition to this "main" VM image, tests which require VPP to communicate to a VM over a vhost-user interface, utilize a "nested" VM image.

This "nested" VM is dynamically created and destroyed as part of a test case, and therefore the "nested" VM image is optimized to be small, lightweight and have a short boot time. The "nested" VM image is not built around any established Linux distribution, but is based on BuildRoot (https://buildroot.org/), a tool for building embedded Linux systems. Just as for the "main" image, scripts to produce an identical replica of the "nested" image are included in CSIT GIT repository, and the image can be rebuilt using the "build.sh" script at:

  resources/tools/disk-image-builder/ubuntu/lists/nested

Functional tests utilize Scapy version 2.3.1 as a traffic generator.

Performance tests environment

To execute performance tests, there are three identical testbeds, each testbed consists of two SUTs and one TG.

Hardware details (CPU, memory, NIC layout) are described in CSIT/CSIT_LF_testbed; in summary:

  • All hosts are Cisco UCS C240-M4 (2x Intel(R) Xeon(R) CPU E5-2699 v3 @ 2.30GHz, 18c, 512GB RAM),
  • BIOS settings are default except for the following:
    • Hyperthreading disabled,
    • SpeedStep disabled
    • TurboBoost disabled
    • Power Technology: Performance
  • Hosts run Ubuntu 14.04.3, kernel 4.2.0-36-generic
  • Linux kernel boot command line option "intel_pstate=disable" is applied to both SUTs and TG. In addition, on SUTs, only cores 0 and 18 (the first core on each socket) are available to the Linux operating system and generic tasks, all other CPU cores are isolated and reserved for VPP.
  • In addition to CIMC and Management, each TG has 4x Intel X710 10GB NIC (=8 ports) and 2x Intel XL710 40GB NIC (=4 ports), whereas each SUT has:
    • 1x Intel X520 NIC (10GB, 2 ports),
    • 1x Cisco VIC 1385 (40GB, 2 ports),
    • 1x Intel XL710 NIC (40GB, 2 ports),
    • 1x Intel X710 NIC (10GB, 2 ports),
    • 1x Cisco VIC 1227 (10GB, 2 ports). This allows for a total of five "double-ring" topologies, each using a different NIC.

For VPP 16.06 testing, only the X520 NICs on the SUT have been used, with the following topology:

  • TG X710, PCI address 0000:05:00.0 <-> SUT1 X520, PCI address 0000:0a:00.1
  • SUT1 X520, PCI address 000:0a:00.0 <-> SUT2 X520, PCI address 0000:0a:00.1
  • SUT2 X520, PCI address 0000:0a:00.0 <-> TG X710, PCI address 0000:05:00.1

Long L2 Bridge-Domain Intel-X520-DA2

RFC2544: Pkt throughput L2BD test cases - verify VPP DUT maximum packet throughput performance:

  • [Top] Network Topologies: TG-DUT1-DUT2-TG 3-node circular topology with single links between nodes.
  • [Enc] Packet Encapsulations: Eth-IPv4 for L2 switching of IPv4.
  • [Cfg] DUT configuration: DUT1 and DUT2 are configured with L2 bridge-domain and MAC learning enabled. DUT1 and DUT2 tested with 2p10GE NICX520 Niantic by Intel.
  • [Ver] TG verification: TG finds and reports throughput NDR (Non Drop Rate) with zero packet loss tolerance or throughput PDR (Partial Drop Rate) with non-zero packet loss tolerance (LT) expressed in percentage of packets transmitted. NDR and PDR are discovered for different Ethernet L2 frame sizes using either binary search or linear search algorithms with configured starting rate and final step that determines throughput measurement resolution. Test packets are generated by TG on links to DUTs. TG traffic profile contains two L3 flow-groups (flow-group per direction, 253 flows per flow-group) with all packets containing Ethernet header, IPv4 header with IP protocol=61 and static payload. MAC addresses are matching MAC addresses of the TG node interfaces.

Long IPv4 Routing with COP Address Security Intel-X520-DA2

RFC2544: Pkt throughput IPv4 whitelist test cases - verify VPP DUT maximum packet throughput performance:

  • [Top] Network Topologies: TG-DUT1-DUT2-TG 3-node circular topology

with single links between nodes.

  • [Enc] Packet Encapsulations: Eth-IPv4 for IPv4 routing.
  • [Cfg] DUT configuration: DUT1 and DUT2 are configured with IPv4 routing, two static IPv4 /24 routes and IPv4 COP security whitelist ingress /24 filter entries applied on links TG - DUT1 and DUT2 - TG. DUT1 and DUT2 tested with 2p10GE NIC X520 Niantic by Intel.
  • [Ver] TG verification: TG finds and reports throughput NDR (Non Drop Rate) with zero packet loss tolerance or throughput PDR (Partial Drop Rate) with non-zero packet loss tolerance (LT) expressed in percentage of packets transmitted. NDR and PDR are discovered for different Ethernet L2 frame sizes using either binary search or linear search algorithms with configured starting rate and final step that determines throughput measurement resolution. Test packets are generated by TG on links to DUTs. TG traffic profile contains two L3 flow-groups (flow-group per direction, 253 flows per flow-group) with all packets containing Ethernet header, IPv4 header with IP protocol=61 and static payload. MAC addresses are matching MAC addresses of the TG node interfaces.

Short IPv6 Routing with COP Address Security Intel-X520-DA2

Reference NDR throughput IPv6 whitelist verify test cases - verify VPP DUT reference packet throughput performance:

  • [Top] Network Topologies: TG-DUT1-DUT2-TG 3-node circular topology with single links between nodes.
  • [Enc] Packet Encapsulations: Eth-IPv6 for IPv6 routing.
  • [Cfg] DUT configuration: DUT1 and DUT2 are configured with IPv6 routing, two static IPv6 /64 routes and IPv6 COP security whitelist ingress /24 filter entries applied on links TG - DUT1 and DUT2 - TG. DUT1 and DUT2 tested with 2p10GE NIC X520 Niantic by Intel.
  • [Ver] TG verification: In short performance tests, TG verifies DUTs' throughput at ref-NDR (reference Non Drop Rate) with zero packet loss tolerance. Ref-NDR value is periodically updated acording to formula: ref-NDR = 0.9x NDR, where NDR is found in RFC2544 long performance tests for the same DUT confiiguration. Test packets are generated by TG on links to DUTs. TG traffic profile contains two L3 flow-groups (flow-group per direction, 253 flows per flow-group) with all packets containing Ethernet header, IPv6 header and generated payload.
  • [Ref] Applicable standard specifications: RFC2544.
