P4-DPDK部署

📚简介

---

简单部署P4-IPDK-DPDK，分成三步：

• 部署DPDK
  • 提供硬件基础
• 部署P4C
  • 提供P4-DPDK-target所需要的四个基本文件
• 部署P4-IPDK-DPDK
  • 利用基本文件运行DPDK-Target上的P4程序

1️⃣部署DPDK

---

19.11：存在兼容性问题，报错implicit-fallthrough

23.07：常规下载

• 下载DPDK 23.07

  wget http://static.dpdk.org/rel/dpdk-23.07.tar.gz
  sudo tar -xzf dpdk-23.07.tar.gz
  

• meson创建

  cd dpdk-23.07
  sudo meson build
  

• ninja编译

  cd build
  sudo ninja
  sudo ninja install
  sudo ldconfig
  

• 验证DPDK

  cd ~/dpdk-23.07/examples/helloworld/build
  sudo ./helloworld -l 0-11 -n 4
  

  正常输出如下：

  EAL: Detected CPU lcores: 12  
  EAL: Detected NUMA nodes: 1  
  EAL: Detected shared linkage of DPDK  
  EAL: Multi-process socket /var/run/dpdk/rte/mp_socket  
  EAL: Selected IOVA mode 'PA'  
  EAL: VFIO support initialized  
  TELEMETRY: No legacy callbacks, legacy socket not created  
  hello from core 1  
  hello from core 2  
  hello from core 3  
  hello from core 4  
  hello from core 5  
  hello from core 6  
  hello from core 7  
  hello from core 8  
  hello from core 9  
  hello from core 10  
  hello from core 11  
  hello from core 0
  

2️⃣安装P4C

---

参考p4lang/p4c: P4_16 reference compiler (github.com)

部署过程

source /etc/lsb-release
echo "deb http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/home:/p4lang/xUbuntu_${DISTRIB_RELEASE}/ /" | sudo tee /etc/apt/sources.list.d/home:p4lang.list
curl -fsSL https://download.opensuse.org/repositories/home:p4lang/xUbuntu_${DISTRIB_RELEASE}/Release.key | gpg --dearmor | sudo tee /etc/apt/trusted.gpg.d/home_p4lang.gpg > /dev/null
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt install p4lang-p4c

3️⃣部署P4-IPDK-DPDK

---

参考以下资料：

• p4lang/p4-dpdk-target: P4 driver SW for P4 DPDK target. (github.com)
• p4c/backends/dpdk at main · p4lang/p4c (github.com)

部署过程

• 下载P4-IPDK-DPDK

  sudo mkdir p4-ipdk-dpdk
  cd p4-ipdk-dpdk
  sudo git clone https://github.com/p4lang/p4-dpdk-target.git
  

• 下载依赖项

  pip3 install distro
  cd p4-dpdk-target/tools/setup
  python3 install_dep.py
  

• 设置SDE与install目录

  cd ~/p4-ipdk-dpdk
  sudo mkdir install
  source c/tools/setup/p4sde_env_setup.sh .
  

• 编译下载安装

  cd $SDE/p4-dpdk-target
  git submodule update --init --recursive --force
  ./autogen.sh
  ./configure --prefix=$SDE_INSTALL
  make -j
  make install
  

• 运行测试

  # 环境变量书写
  export SDE_INSTALL=~/p4-dpdk-target/install
  export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=$SDE_INSTALL/lib:$SDE_INSTALL/lib64:$SDE_INSTALL/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu
  export PYTHONPATH=$SDE_INSTALL/lib/python3.8/:$SDE_INSTALL/lib/python3.8/lib-dynload:$SDE_INSTALL/lib/python3.8/site-packages
  export PYTHONHOME=$SDE_INSTALL/lib/python3.8
  cd $SDE_INSTALL/bin
  
  # 编辑好P4-Program-File后，再执行下述命令
  ./bf_switchd --install-dir $SDE_INSTALL --conf-file $SDE_INSTALL/share/dpdk/<P4 program name>/<P4 program name>.conf --init-mode=cold --status-port 7777
  
  # 运行bfshell相关client工具，检查是否运行成功
  

  • P4-Program-File的书写请参考：p4lang/p4-dpdk-target: P4 driver SW for P4 DPDK target. (github.com)
  • 四个文件的生成参考：p4-dpdk-target/e2e-test/tools/compile.py at main · p4lang/p4-dpdk-target (github.com)

4️⃣使用P4C-DPDK生成P4-DPDK-Target需要的文件

---

参考p4-dpdk-target/e2e-test/tools/compile.py at main · p4lang/p4-dpdk-target (github.com)

• 运行编译DPDK

  p4c-dpdk --arch psa gtp-psa-from-vxlan.p4 \
  --tdi gtp-psa-tdi.json \
  --context gtp-psa-context.json \
  -o gtp-psa.spec
