Functions

__DOCA_EXPERIMENTAL int doca_dpi_dequeue ( doca_dpi_ctx* ctx, uint16_t dpi_q, doca_dpi_result* result )
Dequeues packets after processing.
Parameters
ctx
The DPI context.
dpi_q
The DPI queue from which to dequeue the flows' packets.
result
Output, matching result.
Returns

doca_dpi_dequeue_status_t if successful, error code otherwise

Description

Only packets enqueued for processing will be returned by this API. Packets will return in the order they were enqueued.

__DOCA_EXPERIMENTAL void doca_dpi_destroy ( doca_dpi_ctx* ctx )
Free the DPI memory and releases the regex engine.
Parameters
ctx
DPI context to destroy.
Description

__DOCA_EXPERIMENTAL int doca_dpi_enqueue ( doca_dpi_flow_ctx* flow_ctx, rte_mbuf* pkt, bool  initiator, uint32_t payload_offset, void* user_data )
Enqueue a new DPI job for processing.
Parameters
flow_ctx
The flow context handler.
pkt
The mbuf to be processed.
initiator
Indicates to which direction the packet belongs. 1 - if the packet arrives from client to server. 0 - if the packet arrives from server to client. Typically, the first packet will arrive from the initiator (client).
payload_offset
Indicates where the packet's payload begins.
user_data
Private user data to b returned when the DPI job is dequeued.
Returns

doca_dpi_enqueue_status_t or other error code.

Description

This function is thread-safe per queue. For best performance it should always be called from the same thread/queue on which the flow was created. See Multithreading section of the DPI Programming Guide for more details.

Once a packet is enqueued, user must not change, reuse or free the mbuf while it is being processed. See "Packet Ownership" section of the DPI Programming Guide for more details.

The injected packet has to be stripped of FCS. A packet will not be enqueued if:

  • Payload length = 0

__DOCA_EXPERIMENTAL doca_dpi_flow_ctx* doca_dpi_flow_create ( doca_dpi_ctx* ctx, uint16_t dpi_q, const doca_dpi_parsing_info* parsing_info, int* error, doca_dpi_result* result )
Creates a new flow on a queue.
Parameters
ctx
The DPI context.
dpi_q
The DPI queue on which to create the flows
parsing_info
L3/L4 information.
error
Output, Negative if error occurred.
result
Output, If flow was matched based on the parsing info, result->matched will be true.
Returns

NULL on error.

Description

Must be called before enqueuing any new packet. A flow must not be created on 2 different queues.

__DOCA_EXPERIMENTAL void doca_dpi_flow_destroy ( doca_dpi_flow_ctx* flow_ctx )
Destroys a flow on a queue.
Parameters
flow_ctx
The flow context to destroy.
Description

Should be called when a flow is terminated or times out

__DOCA_EXPERIMENTAL int doca_dpi_flow_match_get ( const doca_dpi_flow_ctx* flow_ctx, doca_dpi_result* result )
Query a flow's match.
Parameters
flow_ctx
The flow context of the flow to be queried.
result
Output, latest match on this flow. Only "matched" and "info" fields in the result parameter are valid.
Returns

0 on success, error code otherwise.

Description

__DOCA_EXPERIMENTAL doca_dpi_ctx* doca_dpi_init ( const doca_dpi_config_t* config, int* error )
Initialize the DPI library.
Parameters
config
See doca_dpi_config_t for details.
error
Output error, negative value indicates an error.
Returns

doca_dpi_ctx - dpi opaque context, NULL on error.

Description

This function must be invoked first before any function in the API. It should be invoked once per process. This call will probe the first regex device it finds (0).

__DOCA_EXPERIMENTAL int doca_dpi_load_signatures ( doca_dpi_ctx* ctx, const char* cdo_file )
Loads the cdo file.
Parameters
ctx
The DPI context.
cdo_file
CDO file created by the DPI compiler.
Returns

0 on success, error code otherwise.

Description

The cdo file contains signature information. The cdo file must be loaded before any enqueue call.

Database update: When a new signatures database is available, the user may call this function again. The newly loaded CDO must contain the signatures of the previously loaded CDO or result will be undefined.

__DOCA_EXPERIMENTAL int doca_dpi_signature_get ( const doca_dpi_ctx* ctx, uint32_t sig_id, doca_dpi_sig_data* sig_data )
Returns a specific sig info.
Parameters
ctx

Returns all signatures.
Parameters
ctx
The DPI context.
sig_data
Output of the sig data.
Returns

Number of signatures on success, error code otherwise.

Description

It is the responsibility of the user to free the array. Because this function copies all the sig info, it is highly recommended to call this function only once after loading the database, and not during packet processing.

struct __attribute__ ( (__packed__) )
doca flow meta data
Description

Meta data known as scratch data can be used to match or modify within pipes. Meta data can be set with value in previous pipes and match in later pipes. User can customize meta data structure as long as overall size doens't exceed limit. To match meta data, mask must be specified when creating pipe. Struct must be aligned to 32 bits. No initial value for Meta data, must match after setting value.

Enumerations

enum doca_regex_status_flag

Response status flags

Values
DOCA_REGEX_STATUS_SEARCH_FAILED = 1

Functions

__DOCA_EXPERIMENTAL doca_regex* doca_regex_create ( void )
Returns

Non NULL doca_regex object on success, NULL otherwise.

Description

Create a DOCA RegEx instance.

__DOCA_EXPERIMENTAL int doca_regex_dequeue ( doca_regex* regex, uint16_t qid, doca_regex_job_response* responses, uint8_t max_results )
Parameters
regex
The RegEx engine to dequeue data from.
qid
ID of queue to read results from.
responses
A pointer to an array of responses. The RegEx engine will place each dequeued result into this array until either the maximum number of responses are returned or all available responses have been returned. Caller assumes ownership of each response returned this way. The engine takes no care to clear any un-populated element of this array, it is the caller responsibility to ensure they only read as many responses as was indicated in the functions return value.
max_results
Maximum number of results to return. the responses array MUST have capacity for at least this many elements.
Returns

[0..max_results] The number of responses dequeued or a negative posix status code.

Description

Dequeue responses from the RegEx engine.

Note:

This function is thread safe when each queue is read by only one thread. If there is a chance that more than one thread could read from to the same queue then external synchronisation must be provided by the application to prevent that circumstance.

__DOCA_EXPERIMENTAL void doca_regex_destroy ( doca_regex* regex )
Parameters
regex
Instance to be destroyed, MUST NOT BE NULL.
Description

Destroy DOCA RegEx instance.

Note:

The application must call doca_regex_stop() before destroying a running instance.

__DOCA_EXPERIMENTAL int doca_regex_enqueue ( doca_regex* regex, uint16_t qid, doca_regex_job_request* job, bool  allow_aggregation )
Parameters
regex
The RegEx engine instance to use.
qid
ID of queue to enqueue the job into.
job
The job to enqueue. Caller retains ownership of the job
allow_aggregation
When set the RegEx engine may choose to not begin processing this job immediately in an attempt to maximise overall efficiency and throughput. When not set the RegEx engine must begin processing immediately, potentially reducing latency. This allows an application to favour either throughput or latency. If in doubt it is recommended to favour throughput.
Returns

[0..1] Number of jobs enqueued or a negative posix status code.

Description

Enqueue a job.

Note:

This function is thread safe when each queue is written to by only one thread. If there is a chance that more than one thread could write to the same queue then external synchronisation must be provided by the application to prevent that circumstance.

__DOCA_EXPERIMENTAL int doca_regex_hw_device_set ( doca_regex* regex, doca_regex_device* device )
Parameters
regex
The RegEx engine instance to use.
device
Provide a non NULL value to register a device to use for hardware accelerated searches. The application retains ownership of the device object. The Application shall ensure the lifetime of the device is maintained until the device is either de-registered or the doca_regex instance is destroyed. Pass a NULL value to this function to de-register a registered device.
Returns

0 on success or a negative status code on failure.

Description

Set the device to be used for hardware accelerated searches

Note:

  • this function shall only be called when the doca_regex instance is not running. see doca_regex_start, doca_regex_stop

  • this function is not thread safe. Application must ensure that this is only called from a single thread.

__DOCA_EXPERIMENTAL int doca_regex_num_qps_set ( doca_regex* regex, uint16_t num_qps )
Parameters
regex
The RegEx engine instance to use.
num_qps
Number of QP's that can be used. Must be at least 1.
Returns

0 on success or a negative status code on failure.

Description

Specify how many qp's are available for use

Note:

  • this function shall only be called when the doca_regex instance is not running. see doca_regex_start, doca_regex_stop

  • this function is not thread safe. Application must ensure that this is only called from a single thread.

__DOCA_EXPERIMENTAL int doca_regex_overlap_size_set ( doca_regex* regex, uint16_t nb_overlap_bytes )
Parameters
regex
The RegEx engine instance to use.
nb_overlap_bytes
Number of bytes of overlap to use.
Returns

0 on success or a negative status code on failure.

Description

Set the size of overlap to use when a job exceeds a devices maximum search size.

When a submitted job is larger than the receiving device can support it must be fragmented. This can cause issues if a match exists but is split across two fragments. To remedy this an overlap size can be set so that these matches may be detected. The overlap defined by this function specifies how many bytes of the previous search fragment will be resent as part of the next search fragment. So for example if a 100 byte job is submitted and a device supported a 32 byte maximum job length then the jobs sent would look as follows:

Overlap size First job Second Job Third Job Fourth job Fifth Job Sixth Job 0 [0-31] [32-63] [64-95] [96-99] --- --- 8 [0-31] [24-55] [42-79] [72-99] --- --- 16 [0-31] [16-47] [32-63] [48-79] [64-95] [80-99]

This allows the user to select an overlap value which provides enough overlap to detect any match they must find for the lowest cost.

Note:

The maximum overlap size is the smallest of the registered devices maximum job length minus one. This is validated during doca_regex_start.

Note:

  • this function shall only be called when the doca_regex instance is not running. see doca_regex_start, doca_regex_stop

  • this function is not thread safe. Application must ensure that this is only called from a single thread.

__DOCA_EXPERIMENTAL int doca_regex_program_compiled_rules ( doca_regex* regex, const char* hw_compiled_rules_bin, size_t hw_compiled_rules_size, const char* sw_compiled_rules_bin, size_t sw_compiled_rules_size )

qid
ID of the queue to associate this mempool with
Returns

0 on success or a negative status code on failure.

Description

Register a memory pool to the engine so it can acquire doca_regex_match objects without requiring memory allocations. If an application does not desire to get match details from a search then this can be left out. The application retains ownership of the memory pool and must ensure the memory pool remains available until either the doca regex engine is destroyed or it can be de-registered while the engine is stopped.

Note:

  • This mempool will be used to allocate all matches for all jobs on the registered queue so it must be sized sufficiently large.

  • The application must return the matches in each doca_regex_job_response to the mempool once they no longer needed. See doca_regex_mempool_obj_put.

Note:

  • this function shall only be called when the doca_regex instance is not running. see doca_regex_start, doca_regex_stop

  • this function is not thread safe. Application must ensure that this is only called from a single thread.

Returns

0 on success or a negative status code on failure.

Description

Define a threshold for "small jobs" where it is preferable to scan them using a software RegEx device instead of the hardware RegEx device. This can be useful in cases where a particular hardware device incurs more overhead in the process of sending the job to and from hardware. The value that should be set here will vary depending on the capability of the hardware device in use.

Note:

  • Defaults to 256.

2.13. Telemetry Service Library

DOCA lib for exporting events to the telemetry service.

DOCA lib for exporting a netflow packet to a netflow collector through the telemetry service.

This lib simplifies and centralizes the formatting and exporting of netflow packets. Netflow is a protocol for exporting information about the device network flows to a netflow collector that will aggregate and analyze the data. After creating conf file and invoke init function, the lib send function can be called with netflow struct to send a netflow packet with the format to the collector of choice specified in the conf file. The lib uses the netflow protocol specified by cisco.

See also:

https://netflow.caligare.com/netflow_v9.htm

Limitations:

The lib supports the netflow V9 format. The lib is not thread safe.
