63. VF VLAN Tests¶

The support of VLAN offload features by VF device consists in:

the filtering of received VLAN packets
VLAN header stripping by hardware in received [VLAN] packets
VLAN header insertion by hardware in transmitted packets

63.1. Prerequisites¶

Create VF device from PF devices:

./dpdk_nic_bind.py --st
0000:87:00.0 'Ethernet Controller X710 for 10GbE SFP+' if=ens259f0 drv=i40e unused=
0000:87:00.1 'Ethernet Controller X710 for 10GbE SFP+' if=ens259f1 drv=i40e unused=

echo 1 > /sys/bus/pci/devices/0000\:87\:00.0/sriov_numvfs
echo 1 > /sys/bus/pci/devices/0000\:87\:00.1/sriov_numvfs

./dpdk_nic_bind.py --st

0000:87:00.0 'Ethernet Controller X710 for 10GbE SFP+' if=ens259f0 drv=i40e unused=
0000:87:02.0 'XL710/X710 Virtual Function' unused=
0000:87:0a.0 'XL710/X710 Virtual Function' unused=

Detach VFs from the host, bind them to pci-stub driver:

/sbin/modprobe pci-stub

using `lspci -nn|grep -i ethernet` got VF device id, for example "8086 154c",

echo "8086 154c" > /sys/bus/pci/drivers/pci-stub/new_id
echo 0000:87:02.0 > /sys/bus/pci/devices/0000:87:02.0/driver/unbind
echo 0000:87:02.0 > /sys/bus/pci/drivers/pci-stub/bind

echo "8086 154c" > /sys/bus/pci/drivers/pci-stub/new_id
echo 0000:87:0a.0 > /sys/bus/pci/devices/0000:87:0a.0/driver/unbind
echo 0000:87:0a.0 > /sys/bus/pci/drivers/pci-stub/bind

Passthrough VFs 87:02.0 & 87:02.1 to vm0 and start vm0:

/usr/bin/qemu-system-x86_64  -name vm0 -enable-kvm \
-cpu host -smp 4 -m 2048 -drive file=/home/image/sriov-fc20-1.img -vnc :1 \
-device pci-assign,host=87:02.0,id=pt_0 \
-device pci-assign,host=87:0a.0,id=pt_1

Login vm0 and them bind VF devices to igb_uio driver.:

./tools/dpdk_nic_bind.py --bind=igb_uio 00:04.0 00:05.0

Start testpmd, set it in rxonly mode and enable verbose output:

testpmd -c 0x0f -n 4 -w 00:04.0 -w 00:05.0 -- -i --portmask=0x3 --tx-offloads=0x8fff
testpmd> set fwd rxonly
testpmd> set verbose 1
testpmd> start

63.2. Test Case 1: Add port based vlan on VF¶

Linux network configuration tool only set pvid on VF devices.

Add pvid on VF0 from PF device:
```
ip link set $PF_INTF vf 0 vlan 2
```
Send packet with same vlan id and check VF can receive
Send packet without vlan and check VF can’t receive
Send packet with wrong and check Vf can’t receive

Check pf device show correct pvid setting:

ip link show ens259f0
...
vf 0 MAC 00:00:00:00:00:00, vlan 1, spoof checking on, link-state auto

63.3. Test Case 2: Remove port based vlan on VF¶

Remove added vlan from PF device:
```
ip link set $PF_INTF vf 0 vlan 0
```
Restart testpmd and send packet without vlan and check VF can receive
Set packet with vlan id 0 and check VF can receive
Set packet with random id 1-4095 and check VF can’t receive

63.4. Test Case 3: VF port based vlan tx¶

Add pvid on VF0 from PF device:
```
ip link set $PF_INTF vf 0 vlan 2
```
Start testpmd with mac forward mode:
```
testpmd> set fwd mac
testpmd> start
```
Send packet from tester port1 and check packet received by tester port0:
```
Check port1 received packet with configured vlan 2
```

63.5. Test Case 3: VF tagged vlan tx¶

Start testpmd with full-featured tx code path and with mac forward mode:

testpmd -c f -n 3 -- -i --tx-offloads=0x8fff
testpmd> set fwd mac
testpmd> start

Add tx vlan offload on VF0, take care the first param is port:
```
testpmd> tx_vlan 0 1
```
Send packet from tester port1 and check packet received by tester port0:
```
Check port- received packet with configured vlan 1
```
Rerun with step2-3 with random vlan and max vlan 4095

63.6. Test case4: VF tagged vlan rx¶

Make sure port based vlan disabled on VF0 and VF1

Start testpmd with rxonly mode:

testpmd> set fwd rxonly
testpmd> set verbose 1
testpmd> start

Send packet without vlan and check packet received
Send packet with vlan 0 and check packet received
Add vlan on VF0 from VF driver:
```
testpmd> rx_vlan add 1 0
```
Send packet with vlan0/1 and check packet received
Rerun with step5-6 with random vlan and max vlan 4095
Remove vlan on VF0:
```
rx_vlan rm 1 0
```
Send packet with vlan 0 and check packet received
Send packet without vlan and check packet received
Send packet with vlan 1 and check packet can’t received

63.7. Test case5: VF Vlan strip test¶

Start testpmd with mac forward mode:

testpmd> set fwd mac
testpmd> set verbose 1
testpmd> start

Add tagged vlan 1 on VF0:
```
testpmd> rx_vlan add 1 0
```
Disable VF0 vlan strip and sniff packet on tester port1:
```
testpmd> vlan set strip off 0
```
Set packet from tester port0 with vlan 1 and check sniffed packet has vlan
Enable vlan strip on VF0 and sniff packet on tester port1:
```
testpmd> vlan set strip on 0
```
Send packet from tester port0 with vlan 1 and check sniffed packet without vlan
Send packet from tester port0 with vlan 0 and check sniffed packet without vlan
Rerun with step 2-8 with random vlan and max vlan 4095
