OpenNetVM v21.10 Latest
Latest

OpenNetVM v.21.10 focused on general bug fixing and improving our test/development environments.

Summary of release:

New Features and NFs

  • [243] Adds L3 Switch example based on DPDK l3fwd sample code. This NF can forward packets either using longest prefix match or a hash table lookup.
  • [254] Adds Fair Queue NF that demonstrates how to use advanced rings mode to directly access packets and distribute them to a set of child NFs. Packets are "classified" using a CRC32 hash and assigned to a queue. Queues are then read from in Round Robin order to process packets of different types in a fair way. Contributed by (Rohit M P) from NITK.
  • [277] Adds support for Jumbo frame packets. Enable by adding a -j flag to the manager's go.sh script.

Testing and Development Improvements

  • [296] Adds unit test for NF messaging infrastructure and fixes memory leak related to overflow of message pools [Issue 293].
  • [297] Adds VS Code profile to simplify debugging of NFs.
  • [302] Adds NF chain performance test to measure and plot inter-NF throughput and latency.
  • [308] Adds socket ID information to NF and manager logging print statements.

Miscellaneous Bug and Documentation Fixes

  • [304] Fixes the NF_TAG of aes_decrypt in openNetVM/examples/aes_decrypt/aesdecrypt.c.
  • [300] Updates MoonGen installation document to work with the new DPDK version.
  • [270] Fixes issues with relative path in the onvm go script to find the web directory. Now using $ONVM_HOME instead of ...
  • [272] Fixes two bugs (including Issue #233) where the NF rings would not be cleared after deallocation and an underflow bug in stats.
  • [265] Updates Install README to provide further clarification as well as to include a missing package.
  • [267] Fixes typos in onvm_pkt_helper.h.
  • [317] Fixes the ARP NF endianness for source IP addresses.
  • [306] Updates linter installation script to use newer versions of cppcheck and Ubuntu.
  • [316] Fixes Speed Tester NF so that it does not crash while loading a PCAP trace with jumbo frames without the correct flags.

OpenNetVM v20.10

OpenNetVM V20.10 includes several major updates and numerous bug fixes/improvements.

Summary of release:

Major Updates:

  • Users can now launch chains of network functions through a Python script. Simply edit a JSON configuration file to specify the topology of network functions and their parameters, and feed it into the Python script.
  • Added a layer 2 forwarding network function, inspired by one of DPDK's sample applications.
  • Updated the syntax of the ONVM manager script to make it more intuitive, and gave users the option to use default parameters for cores/ports.
  • Updated our platform to be compatible with Ubuntu 20.04 LTS, DPDK 20.05, and Pktgen 20.05.

Minor improvements

  • Replaced some libc function calls with corresponding DPDK function calls.
  • Reduced memory leaks
  • Migrated from Python 2.7 to Python 3
  • Improved ONVM Install Guide to reflect DPDK and Pktgen version updates
  • Use NF local data instead of global variables in simple_fwd_tb NF
  • Updated documentation to ensure linter compatibility
  • Pull request template now reminds users to PR to the develop branch

Bug fixes

  • Fixed a bug where NF statistics were not updated correctly
  • Fixed a bug where we would incorrectly count the number of available ports in the manager go script
  • Fixed a bug where the load_generator NF would be unable to obtain a MAC address from the available interfaces. It isn't necessary for the function of the NF, so we use a fake MAC instead.

OpenNetVM v20.05

OpenNetVM Version v20.05 is a long awaited release which introduces several new features such as updated Docker support, NF summary statistics, and CI improvements, in addition to numerous bug fixes and optimizations to the platform. Please read the release note for a detailed list of changes: ONVM Release v20.05

Summary of release:

Major Updates:

  • A Token Bucket NF that may be used for rate limited packet throughput.
  • A brand new Continuous Integration setup that takes advantage of Github Actions
  • Convenient NF summary statistics feature which reports and saves information gathered during the lifetime of an NF
  • Memory for NF's are allocated on demand instead of being allocated statically by the manager

OpenNetVM v19.02

OpenNetVM Version v19.02 is a major release which introduces several new features that require API changes to all NFs. Please read the release note for a detailed list of changes: ONVM Release v19.02.

A CloudLab template is available with the latest release here: https://www.cloudlab.us/p/GWCloudLab/onvm

Summary of release:

Major updates:

  • Manager Assigned NF Cores--The onvm_mgr will now handle NF core assignment. This adds a new argument to the onvm_mgr, the NF_CORE_MASK, in turn the NFs don't require a CORELIST argument to start. The default core assignment is 1 core per NF, which can be changed with new NF args.
  • Global Launch Script--Instead of maintaining a go.sh script for every NF we now have a global start_nf.sh script that can run any NF.
    • This changes the way we run example NFs
  • DPDK 18.11 Update--Updates DPDK version to DPDK18.11. Also updated Pktgen to v3.6.5
  • Web Stats Overhaul--Adds a new event logging system to webstats. Contains a complete rewrite of the web frontend.
  • Load Generator NF--Adds a NF that generates traffic with specified rate and size to measures tx and rx throughput (pps) and latency.
  • CI (Internal repo only)--Adds continuous integration to the internal repo. CI currently reports the linter output and the Speed Tester NF performance.
    • For now its internal, but will be added to the public repo once ready.

Minor improvements and bug fixes:

  • Fix how NF_STOPPED message is sent/processed. This fixes the double shutdown bug, the fast ctrl-c exit bug and the invalid arguments bug.
  • Add out of bounds checks for NF service ids.
  • Fix the Speed Tester NF to properly exit when passed an invalid MAC addr argument.

Testbed:

  • The aforementioned CloudLab template, and on a host with the following configuration:

Major updates:

  • NFs now support multithreading--NFs can now run multiple threads, each with their own set of Tx and Rx rings. NFs can start/stop threads themselves, or the ONVM manager can trigger NFs to scale up/down as needed.
    • This feature introduces many API changes
  • Updated statistics display for the ONVM manager console--additional verbosity modes have been added to provide various levels of detailed output.
  • Config file support--previously, running the ONVM manager and NFs needed many command line arguments. Now, ONVM supports reading JSON config files, which define the parameter values.
    • This feature introduces many API changes

Minor updates:

  • A new API to allow NFs to return packets back in bulk instead of one-at-a-time.
  • Updated scripts/corehelper.py utility to report recommended CPU core configuration to run ONVM
  • Adjusted the default number of Tx queues that ONVM starts with from a default value to one per Tx thread to provide better support for SR-IOV and NICs which have limited queue support.
  • Bug fixes:
    • Fixed memory issues in the Speed Tester NF
    • Invalid path parameters in the Pktgen helper script
    • Minor documentation updates

Testbed:

  • The aforementioned CloudLab template, and on a host with the following configuration:
