Detailed Description

DPDK architecture assume the following control block signature

control ingress(header h, metadata m); control egress(header h, metadata m);

We need to convert psa control blocks to this form.

Passes defined in this file are used for generating Context JSON output for DPDK Context JSON is a JSON file used by the control plane software for manipulating tables and actions. It contains all relevant information regarding the tables and actions. The context JSON is based on the JSON Schema defined in DPDK_context_schema.json.

PnaMainOutputMetadataOutputPortName

const char DPDK::PnaMainOutputMetadataOutputPortName[] = "pna_main_output_metadata_output_port"

Name of the metadata used as output port.

PNA specification does not contain standard metadata for specifying output port. rte_swx_pipeline in DPDK uses instruction 'tx' to specify the output port for a packet. To send a packet to a specific port, we need to do the following:

• add definition of new metadata field to main metadata structure for rte_swx_pipeline
• use the same name of this newly defined metadata field when assigning value of output port
• use this metadata field with 'tx' instruction
