Hi, I can't find information about performance of OVS mirror , and I knew some one has changed ovs mirror such as deny creating a mirror with select-all=true option;      Is there some report about ovs mirror performance? In any version OVS is ok, thank you.__

2015-12-03 Thread Benoît
Thanks Justin I was probably not clear enough. I try to find a way to connect a tun interface (from openvpn) to OVS bridge mostly to use port mirroring capabilities. Adding tun interface directly will not work but I would like to know if there is any way (patch / via tap or another way) to sen

[ovs-discuss] OVS with dpdk vhost user performance

2015-12-03 Thread Haris Tanvir
You have described following parameters for the ovs performance. May I ask what was the exact parameters of the environment you tested in? For instance, core mask, cpu affinity, no of rx ques, how many flows, how many physical and vhost ports etc. "These are devel numbers after doing some basic

Re: [ovs-discuss] OVS-dpdk Packet Error for rate beyond 1MPPS

2015-12-03 Thread haris tanvir
With no flows in the OVS, none of the packets go to err state. However, as soon as i insert some flow, after a certain traffic rate (1 million in my case), additional packets go to 'err' state.Why is that? port 1: rx pkts=2873570624, bytes=?, drop=?, errs=?, frame=?, over=?, crc=?

[ovs-discuss] Changing FLOW_MAX_MPLS_LABELS

2015-12-03 Thread Seyed Hossein Mortazavi
Hi, I want to change this parameter: #define FLOW_MAX_MPLS_LABELS 3 to 7. Following this post: http://permalink.gmane.org/gmane.linux.network.openvswitch.general/8249 I realize that I also need to change an assert: BUILD_ASSERT_DECL(offsetof(struct flow, igmp_group_ip4) + sizeof(uint32_t) == si

[ovs-discuss] Disabling flow cache

2015-12-03 Thread Santiago Vidal
Hello. I'm working on an experiment to study the impact of a large number of flows in a switch. I would like to know how I can disable the flow cache in the kernel module, so that every packet has to go through the OpenFlow pipeline. I tried 'ovs-appctl upcall/set-flow-limit 0' but it did not w
