Understanding DPDK algorithmics
- 1. Understanding DPDK algorithmics Fast lookup algorithms implemented inside DPDK libraries
- 2. HASH library Used in FDB, IPv4 and IPv6 HOST tables
- 3. DPDK Hash library characteristics Algorithm used is a modified Cuckoo hashing Hash size is 32 bytes Optimistic memory access time is 1 Pessimistic memory access time is 2 With random keys, this method allows the user to get around 90% of the table utilization, without having to drop any stored entry or allocate more memory. Big table is divided in many buckets Cuckoo hashing algorithm is used to find another bucket
- 4. Cuckoo hashing collision resolution x y New value = x, Old value = y h1(x) h2(y) Table 1 Table 2
- 7. LPM library Used in IPv4 and IPv6 ROUTE tables
- 8. DPDK LPM library characteristics Uses modified DIR-24-8-BASIC algorithm TBL24 contains 224 next hop entries = 16M * 2B = 32MB Number of TBL8 could be up to 215 = 32K * 2B = 64K Next hop value points to next hop id in case of 24-bit or less prefix and to TBL8 table otherwise Route prefixes less than 24 are expanded into multiple entries inside TBL24 Number of prefixes longer than 24 is limited by the number of TBL8

Editor's Notes
- If a space is occupied, the new value is inserted. While an old value is moved to the second table using a second hash function. The process is repeated in case if another collision happens until an empty space is found or timeout.
