2014-03-11pcap_io: Only check byteswapped linktype if pcap magic is swappedTobias Klauser1-13/+8
In pcap_validate_header() the linktype and the byte-swapped linktype are currently checked against the supported linktypes. Since the swapped linktype is always larger than LINKTYPE_MAX, only one of the two tests was actually done. Make this intention a bit more clear by explicitly checking only for either the swapped or non-swapped linktype, depending on whether the pcap magic is swapped. Also make the error messages a bit more verbose regarding the major/minor version. Signed-off-by: Tobias Klauser <tklauser@distanz.ch>

2014-02-26dissectors: ethernet: Handle multicast/broadcast addresses properlyTobias Klauser1-5/+25
Until now, we just looked up the vendor string based on the OUI for each MAC address. Thus, multicast and broadcast addresses were just printed as "Unknown" which is a bit misleading. Improve this situation by checking bit 0 of the 1st octet of the address and by checking for the broadcast address if it is set. If a multicast/broadcast address is found, the respective string is returned. In all other cases, the existing OUI lookup is done. In the future we might extend this mechanism to look up well-known multicast addresses. Signed-off-by: Tobias Klauser <tklauser@distanz.ch>

2014-02-24ring: Get rid of unnecessary wrapper for get_sockopt_tpacketTobias Klauser1-13/+8
get_sockopt_tpacket is never used in the "raw" version and the wrapper does no additional checking anyway, so get rid of it. Signed-off-by: Tobias Klauser <tklauser@distanz.ch>
2014-02-24build: Set SHELL make variable to bash if possibleTobias Klauser1-0/+3
On Debian/Ubuntu systems, /bin/sh is /bin/dash which doesn't understand the -e option to the `echo' builtin. Thus the build output looks something like the following: Building netsniff-ng toolkit (0.5.8-rc5+) for x86_64-linux-gnu: Building netsniff-ng: -e CC dissector.c -e CC dissector_eth.c -e CC dissector_80211.c ... Prevent this by setting SHELL to /bin/bash if it exists on the system, otherwise stick to /bin/sh. Signed-off-by: Tobias Klauser <tklauser@distanz.ch>

2014-02-02trafgen: Don't modify optarg/argvTobias Klauser1-1/+0
Follow commit bed9b6bb ("netsniff-ng: Don't modify optarg/argv"). We shouldn't modify optarg (and thus argv) since it's e.g. used to display the commandline string in `ps'. Since strtoul() reads until it encounters the first non-numeric character and ignores the rest, we can just revert from setting a NULL byte after the numeric part of the string.

2013-12-12trafgen: take advantage of PACKET_QDISC_BYPASS sock optionJesper Dangaard Brouer5-2/+40
Since Linux 3.14, the kernel supports a socket option PACKET_QDISC_BYPASS, which trafgen enables by default. That allow us to bypass the kernels normal qdisc (traffic control) layer. An option -q, --qdisc-path is added to allow enabling the qdisc path explicity, useful for testing purposes. This will be avail in kernels >= 3.14 via commit d346a3fae3 (packet: introduce PACKET_QDISC_BYPASS socket option). Signed-off-by: Jesper Dangaard Brouer <brouer@redhat.com>
2013-12-11trafgen: speedup TX only path by avoiding kernel packet_rcv() callJesper Dangaard Brouer7-6/+20
The tool trafgen is used in a pktgen style transmit only scenario. We discovered a performance bottleneck in the kernel, when running trafgen, where the kernel stalled on a lock in packet_rcv(). This call is unnecessary for trafgen given its transmit only nature. This packet_rcv() call can, easily be avoided by instructing the RAW/PF_PACKET socket, to not listen to any protocols (by passing protocol argument zero, when creating the socket). The performance gain is huge, increasing performance from approx max 2Mpps to 12Mpps, basically causing trafgen to scale with the number of CPUs. Following tests were run on a 2xCPU E5-2650 with Intel 10Gbit/s ixgbe: Trafgen using sendto() syscall via parameter -t0: * # CPUs -- *with* -- *without* packet_rcv() call * 1 CPU == 1,232,244 -- 1,236,144 pkts/sec * 2 CPUs == 1,592,720 -- 2,593,620 pkts/sec * 3 CPUs == 1,635,623 -- 3,692,216 pkts/sec * 4 CPUs == 1,567,768 -- 4,102,866 pkts/sec * 5 CPUs == 1,700,270 -- 5,151,489 pkts/sec * 6 CPUs == 1,762,392 -- 6,124,512 pkts/sec * 7 CPUs == 1,850,139 -- 7,120,496 pkts/sec * 8 CPUs == 1,770,909 -- 8,058,710 pkts/sec * 9 CPUs == 1,721,072 -- 8,963,192 pkts/sec * 10 CPUs == 1,359,157 -- 9,584,535 pkts/sec * 11 CPUs == 1,175,520 -- 10,498,038 pkts/sec * 12 CPUs == 1,075,867 -- 11,189,292 pkts/sec * 13 CPUs == 1,012,602 -- 12,048,836 pkts/sec * [...] * 20 CPUs == 1,030,446 -- 11,202,449 pkts/sec Trafgen using mmap() TX tpacket_v2 (default) * # CPUs -- *with* -- *without* packet_rcv() call * 1 CPU == 920,682 -- 927,984 pkts/sec * 2 CPUs == 1,607,940 -- 2,061,406 pkts/sec * 3 CPUs == 1,668,488 -- 2,979,463 pkts/sec * 4 CPUs == 1,423,066 -- 3,169,565 pkts/sec * 5 CPUs == 1,507,708 -- 3,910,756 pkts/sec * 6 CPUs == 1,555,616 -- 4,625,844 pkts/sec * 7 CPUs == 1,560,961 -- 5,298,441 pkts/sec * 8 CPUs == 1,596,092 -- 6,000,465 pkts/sec * 9 CPUs == 1,575,139 -- 6,722,130 pkts/sec * 10 CPUs == 1,311,676 -- 7,114,202 pkts/sec * 11 CPUs == 1,157,650 -- 7,859,399 pkts/sec * 12 CPUs == 1,060,366 -- 8,491,004 pkts/sec * 13 CPUs == 1,012,956 -- 9,269,761 pkts/sec * [...] * 20 CPUs == 955,716 -- 8,653,947 pkts/sec It is fairly strange that the mmap() version runs slower than the sendto() version. This is likely another performance problem related to mmap() which seems worth fixing. Note, that the mmap() version speed can be improved by reducing the default --ring-size to around 1-2 MiB. But this does not fix general trend with mmap() performance. Signed-off-by: Jesper Dangaard Brouer <brouer@redhat.com>
