Hello Isaac, I see the results were from kernel tap interfaces. This type of interface is intended only for functional test or as example. Repeating those tests with setup from previous emails in the thread (2 hosts, each with 10Gb network card), should show much better results. Can you please let us know what the results from that setup are ?

To make things simpler, we ran the iscsi_tgt server with one nvme device (with no vpp running) and then ran fio on the same node. The result was good. We then configured vpp, started the iscsi_tgt server, executed the RPC commands to use one nvme device, and ran fio on the same node. The fio results were not good, IOPS were too low.

VPP setup looks correct to me. When error you are receiving is seen only on management messages like login this should be fine. It is generated when iscsi_tgt server receives TCP Reset during read. It happens on both posix and vpp net implementations on SPDK. What happens is iscsiadm sending RST instead of closing the connection after sending iSCSI login command to quickly end the TCP connection. A quick way to verify that, is to use "sudo tcpdump -i interface_name -nn 'tcp[13] & 4!=0'" on machine when iscsiadm login is used. This will display all packets with TCP RST. If this message occured during normal data transfer, then it might signify some issue with either connection or setup. Probably the log level of this message should be lowered to NOTICE and text enhanced.

From the server, after starting the iscsi_tgt server, we executed RPC commands to set up the portal, add initiator, configure nvme bdev, construct_lvol_bdev and constructed a target node. From the client, we executed "iscsiadm -m discovery -t sendtargets -p 192.168.2.10" command and after login, we see the new iscsi /dev/sdp and i can read/write to it. However, the server error I sent on Monday still appears (in red). Any idea why we still get the error message (conn.c: 736:spdk_iscsi_conn_read_data: *ERROR*: spdk_sock_recv() failed, errno 104: Connection reset by peer) from iscsi_tgt server? is our vpp configuration correct?

Hello Isaac, Thank you for all the detailed descriptions, it really helps to understand the steps you took. I see that you are working with two hosts and using network cards (TenGigabitEthernet82). Actually all you did in "STEP1" is enough for iscsi_tgt to listen on 192.168.2.20. "STEP2" is not required. Only thing left to do on target is to configure portal/initiator_group/target_node, described here. "Example: Tap interfaces on a single host" is describing situation when someone would like to try out VPP without using another host and "real" network cards. Same goes for veth interfaces used in scripts for per-patch tests - they are done on single host. Thinking back, there should be second example with exact setup that you have - two hosts using network cards. I will look into it. Thanks for all the feedback ! PS. Patch with VPP implementation is merged on master as of today, no need to cherry-pick anymore.

Hi Tomasz, I got the SPDK patch. My network topology is simple but making the network ip address accessible to the iscsi_tgt application and to vpp is not working. From my understanding, vpp is started first on the target host and then iscsi_tgt application is started after the network setup is done (please, correct me if this is not the case). ------- 192.168.2.10 | | initiator ------- | | | -------------------------------------------- 192.168.2.0 | | | 192.168.2.20 -------------- vpp, vppctl | | iscsi_tgt -------------- Both system have a 10GB NIC (On target Server): I set up the vpp environment variables through sysctl command. I unbind the kernel driver and loaded the DPDK uio_pci_generic driver for the first 10GB NIC (device address= 0000:82:00.0). That worked so I started the vpp application and from the startup output, the NIC is in used by vpp [root(a)spdk2 ~]# vpp -c /etc/vpp/startup.conf vlib_plugin_early_init:356: plugin path /usr/lib/vpp_plugins load_one_plugin:184: Loaded plugin: acl_plugin.so (Access Control Lists) load_one_plugin:184: Loaded plugin: dpdk_plugin.so (Data Plane Development Kit (DPDK)) load_one_plugin:184: Loaded plugin: flowprobe_plugin.so (Flow per Packet) load_one_plugin:184: Loaded plugin: gtpu_plugin.so (GTPv1-U) load_one_plugin:184: Loaded plugin: ila_plugin.so (Identifier-locator addressing for IPv6) load_one_plugin:184: Loaded plugin: ioam_plugin.so (Inbound OAM) load_one_plugin:114: Plugin disabled (default): ixge_plugin.so load_one_plugin:184: Loaded plugin: kubeproxy_plugin.so (kube-proxy data plane) load_one_plugin:184: Loaded plugin: l2e_plugin.so (L2 Emulation) load_one_plugin:184: Loaded plugin: lb_plugin.so (Load Balancer) load_one_plugin:184: Loaded plugin: libsixrd_plugin.so (IPv6 Rapid Deployment on IPv4 Infrastructure (RFC5969)) load_one_plugin:184: Loaded plugin: memif_plugin.so (Packet Memory Interface (experimetal)) load_one_plugin:184: Loaded plugin: nat_plugin.so (Network Address Translation) load_one_plugin:184: Loaded plugin: pppoe_plugin.so (PPPoE) load_one_plugin:184: Loaded plugin: stn_plugin.so (VPP Steals the NIC for Container integration) vpp[4168]: load_one_plugin:63: Loaded plugin: /usr/lib/vpp_api_test_plugins/acl_test_plugin.so vpp[4168]: load_one_plugin:63: Loaded plugin: /usr/lib/vpp_api_test_plugins/dpdk_test_plugin.so vpp[4168]: load_one_plugin:63: Loaded plugin: /usr/lib/vpp_api_test_plugins/flowprobe_test_plugin.so vpp[4168]: load_one_plugin:63: Loaded plugin: /usr/lib/vpp_api_test_plugins/gtpu_test_plugin.so vpp[4168]: load_one_plugin:63: Loaded plugin: /usr/lib/vpp_api_test_plugins/ioam_export_test_plugin.so vpp[4168]: load_one_plugin:63: Loaded plugin: /usr/lib/vpp_api_test_plugins/ioam_pot_test_plugin.so vpp[4168]: load_one_plugin:63: Loaded plugin: /usr/lib/vpp_api_test_plugins/ioam_trace_test_plugin.so vpp[4168]: load_one_plugin:63: Loaded plugin: /usr/lib/vpp_api_test_plugins/ioam_vxlan_gpe_test_plugin.so vpp[4168]: load_one_plugin:63: Loaded plugin: /usr/lib/vpp_api_test_plugins/kubeproxy_test_plugin.so vpp[4168]: load_one_plugin:63: Loaded plugin: /usr/lib/vpp_api_test_plugins/lb_test_plugin.so vpp[4168]: load_one_plugin:63: Loaded plugin: /usr/lib/vpp_api_test_plugins/memif_test_plugin.so vpp[4168]: load_one_plugin:63: Loaded plugin: /usr/lib/vpp_api_test_plugins/nat_test_plugin.so vpp[4168]: load_one_plugin:63: Loaded plugin: /usr/lib/vpp_api_test_plugins/pppoe_test_plugin.so vpp[4168]: load_one_plugin:63: Loaded plugin: /usr/lib/vpp_api_test_plugins/udp_ping_test_plugin.so vpp[4168]: load_one_plugin:63: Loaded plugin: /usr/lib/vpp_api_test_plugins/vxlan_gpe_ioam_export_test_plugin.so vpp[4168]: dpdk_config:1240: EAL init args: -c 1 -n 4 --huge-dir /run/vpp/hugepages --file-prefix vpp -w 0000:82:00.0 --master-lcore 0 --socket-mem 64,64 EAL: No free hugepages reported in hugepages-1048576kB EAL: VFIO support initialized DPDK physical memory layout: Segment 0: IOVA:0x2200000, len:2097152, virt:0x7f919c800000, socket_id:0, hugepage_sz:2097152, nchannel:0, nrank:0 Segment 1: IOVA:0x3e000000, len:16777216, virt:0x7f919b600000, socket_id:0, hugepage_sz:2097152, nchannel:0, nrank:0 Segment 2: IOVA:0x3fc00000, len:2097152, virt:0x7f919b200000, socket_id:0, hugepage_sz:2097152, nchannel:0, nrank:0 Segment 3: IOVA:0x54c00000, len:46137344, virt:0x7f917ae00000, socket_id:0, hugepage_sz:2097152, nchannel:0, nrank:0 Segment 4: IOVA:0x1f2e400000, len:67108864, virt:0x7f8f9c200000, socket_id:1, hugepage_sz:2097152, nchannel:0, nran STEP1: Then from vppctl command prompt, I set up ip address for the 10G interface and up it.

In STEP2, should I use a different subnet like 192.168.3.X and turn on IP forwarding add a route to the routing table?

Hello Isaac, Are you using following patch ? (I suggest cherry picking it) https://review.gerrithub.io/#/c/389566/ SPDK iSCSI target can be started without specific interface to bind on, by not specifying any target nodes or portal groups. They can be added later via RPC http://www.spdk.io/doc/iscsi.html#iscsi_rpc. Please see https://github.com/spdk/spdk/blob/master/test/iscsi_tgt/lvol/iscsi.conf for example of minimal iSCSI config. Suggested flow of starting up applications is: 1. Unbind interfaces from kernel 2. Start VPP and configure the interface via vppctl 3. Start SPDK 4. Configure the iSCSI target via RPC, at this time it should be possible to use the interface configured in VPP Please note, there is some leeway here. The only requirement is having VPP app started before SPDK app. Interfaces in VPP can be created (like tap or veth) and configured at runtime, and are available for use in SPDK as well. Let me know if you have any questions.

Hi Tomaz, Daniel and Jim, i am trying to test VPP so build the VPP on a Centos 7.4 (x86_64), build the SPDK and tried to run the ./app/iscsi_tgt/iscsi_tgt application. For VPP, first, I unbind the nick from the kernel as and start VPP application. ./usertools/dpdk-devbind.py -u 0000:07:00.0 vpp unix {cli-listen /run/vpp/cli.sock} Unbinding the nic takes down the interface, however, the ./app/iscsi_tgt/iscsi_tgt -m 0x101 application needs an interface to bind to during startup so it fails to start. The information at: "Running SPDK with VPP VPP application has to be started before SPDK iSCSI target, in order to enable usage of network interfaces. After SPDK iSCSI target initialization finishes, interfaces configured within VPP will be available to be configured as portal addresses. Please refer to Configuring iSCSI Target via RPC method." is not clear because the instructions at the "Configuring iSCSI Traget via RPC method" suggest the iscsi_tgt server is running for one to be able to execute the RPC commands but, how do I get the iscsi_tgt server running without an interface to bind on during its initialization? Please, can anyone of you help to explain how to run the SPDK iscsi_tgt application with VPP (for instance, what should change in iscsi.conf?) after unbinding the nic, how do I get the iscsi_tgt server to start without an interface to bind to, what address should be assigned to the Portal in iscsi.conf.. etc)? I would appreciate if anyone would help. Thank you. Isaac
