Hi, I'm playing dpdkvhostuser ports with latest DPDK and ovs master tree with iperf benchmarking. When kvm guest1(backed up dpdkvhostuser port)siting on HOST1 is receiving packets from either other physical HOST2, or similar kvm guest2 with dpdkvhostuser port siting on HOST2. The connectivity will break, iperf show no bandwidth and stall finally.
Other test scenario like, two kvm guest sitting on one host, or a single kvm guest send packets to a physical host works like a charm. Swiitch debug option on, dpdk lib spit as below: VHOST_CONFIG: read message VHOST_USER_SET_VRING_CALL VHOST_CONFIG: vring call idx:0 file:62 VHOST_CONFIG: read message VHOST_USER_SET_VRING_CALL VHOST_CONFIG: vring call idx:0 file:58 VHOST_DATA: F0 Failed to allocate memory for mbuf. mbuf_pool:0x7fc7411ab5c0 VHOST_DATA: F0 Failed to allocate memory for mbuf. mbuf_pool:0x7fc7411ab5c0 VHOST_DATA: F0 Failed to allocate memory for mbuf. mbuf_pool:0x7fc7411ab5c0 VHOST_DATA: F0 Failed to allocate memory for mbuf. mbuf_pool:0x7fc7411ab5c0 VHOST_DATA: F0 Failed to allocate memory for mbuf. mbuf_pool:0x7fc7411ab5c0 VHOST_DATA: F0 Failed to allocate memory for mbuf. mbuf_pool:0x7fc7411ab5c0 VHOST_DATA: F0 Failed to allocate memory for mbuf. mbuf_pool:0x7fc7411ab5c0 VHOST_DATA: F0 Failed to allocate memory for mbuf. mbuf_pool:0x7fc7411ab5c0 After some tweaks of logging code, and looks like bad things happens within below code snippet: In lib/librte_vhost/vhost_rxtx.c function: rte_vhost_dequeue_burst 612 vb_offset = 0; 613 vb_avail = desc->len; 614 /* Allocate an mbuf and populate the structure. */ 615 m = rte_pktmbuf_alloc(mbuf_pool); 616 if (unlikely(m == NULL)) { 617 RTE_LOG(ERR, VHOST_DATA, 618 "F0 Failed to allocate memory for mbuf. mbuf_pool:%p\n", mbuf_pool); 619 break; 620 } 621 seg_offset = 0; 622 seg_avail = m->buf_len - RTE_PKTMBUF_HEADROOM; 623 cpy_len = RTE_MIN(vb_avail, seg_avail); _______________________________________________ dev mailing list dev@openvswitch.org http://openvswitch.org/mailman/listinfo/dev
