Chapter 14. Performing latency tests for platform verification You can use the Cloud-native Network Functions (CNF) tests image to run latency tests on a CNF-enabled OpenShift Container Platform cluster, where all the components required for running CNF workloads are installed. Run the latency tests to validate node tuning for your workload. The cnf-tests container image is available at registry.redhat.io/openshift4/cnf-tests-rhel8:v4.12 . Important The cnf-tests image also includes several tests that are not supported by Red Hat at this time. Only the latency tests are supported by Red Hat. 14.1. Prerequisites for running latency tests Your cluster must meet the following requirements before you can run the latency tests: You have configured a performance profile with the Node Tuning Operator. You have applied all the required CNF configurations in the cluster. You have a pre-existing MachineConfigPool CR applied in the cluster. The default worker pool is worker-cnf . Additional resources For more information about creating the cluster performance profile, see Provisioning a worker with real-time capabilities . 14.2. About discovery mode for latency tests Use discovery mode to validate the functionality of a cluster without altering its configuration. Existing environment configurations are used for the tests. The tests can find the configuration items needed and use those items to execute the tests. If resources needed to run a specific test are not found, the test is skipped, providing an appropriate message to the user. After the tests are finished, no cleanup of the preconfigured configuration items is done, and the test environment can be immediately used for another test run. Important When running the latency tests, always run the tests with -e DISCOVERY_MODE=true and -ginkgo.focus set to the appropriate latency test. If you do not run the latency tests in discovery mode, your existing live cluster performance profile configuration will be modified by the test run. Limiting the nodes used during tests The nodes on which the tests are executed can be limited by specifying a NODES_SELECTOR environment variable, for example, -e NODES_SELECTOR=node-role.kubernetes.io/worker-cnf . Any resources created by the test are limited to nodes with matching labels. Note If you want to override the default worker pool, pass the -e ROLE_WORKER_CNF=<custom_worker_pool> variable to the command specifying an appropriate label. 14.3. Measuring latency The cnf-tests image uses three tools to measure the latency of the system: hwlatdetect cyclictest oslat Each tool has a specific use. Use the tools in sequence to achieve reliable test results. hwlatdetect Measures the baseline that the bare-metal hardware can achieve. Before proceeding with the latency test, ensure that the latency reported by hwlatdetect meets the required threshold because you cannot fix hardware latency spikes by operating system tuning. cyclictest Verifies the real-time kernel scheduler latency after hwlatdetect passes validation. The cyclictest tool schedules a repeated timer and measures the difference between the desired and the actual trigger times. The difference can uncover basic issues with the tuning caused by interrupts or process priorities. The tool must run on a real-time kernel. oslat Behaves similarly to a CPU-intensive DPDK application and measures all the interruptions and disruptions to the busy loop that simulates CPU heavy data processing. The tests introduce the following environment variables: Table 14.1. Latency test environment variables Environment variables Description LATENCY_TEST_DELAY Specifies the amount of time in seconds after which the test starts running. You can use the variable to allow the CPU manager reconcile loop to update the default CPU pool. The default value is 0. LATENCY_TEST_CPUS Specifies the number of CPUs that the pod running the latency tests uses. If you do not set the variable, the default configuration includes all isolated CPUs. LATENCY_TEST_RUNTIME Specifies the amount of time in seconds that the latency test must run. The default value is 300 seconds. HWLATDETECT_MAXIMUM_LATENCY Specifies the maximum acceptable hardware latency in microseconds for the workload and operating system. If you do not set the value of HWLATDETECT_MAXIMUM_LATENCY or MAXIMUM_LATENCY , the tool compares the default expected threshold (20ms) and the actual maximum latency in the tool itself. Then, the test fails or succeeds accordingly. CYCLICTEST_MAXIMUM_LATENCY Specifies the maximum latency in microseconds that all threads expect before waking up during the cyclictest run. If you do not set the value of CYCLICTEST_MAXIMUM_LATENCY or MAXIMUM_LATENCY , the tool skips the comparison of the expected and the actual maximum latency. OSLAT_MAXIMUM_LATENCY Specifies the maximum acceptable latency in microseconds for the oslat test results. If you do not set the value of OSLAT_MAXIMUM_LATENCY or MAXIMUM_LATENCY , the tool skips the comparison of the expected and the actual maximum latency. MAXIMUM_LATENCY Unified variable that specifies the maximum acceptable latency in microseconds. Applicable for all available latency tools. LATENCY_TEST_RUN Boolean parameter that indicates whether the tests should run. LATENCY_TEST_RUN is set to false by default. To run the latency tests, set this value to true . Note Variables that are specific to a latency tool take precedence over unified variables. For example, if OSLAT_MAXIMUM_LATENCY is set to 30 microseconds and MAXIMUM_LATENCY is set to 10 microseconds, the oslat test will run with maximum acceptable latency of 30 microseconds. 14.4. Running the latency tests Run the cluster latency tests to validate node tuning for your Cloud-native Network Functions (CNF) workload. Important Always run the latency tests with DISCOVERY_MODE=true set. If you don't, the test suite will make changes to the running cluster configuration. Note When executing podman commands as a non-root or non-privileged user, mounting paths can fail with permission denied errors. To make the podman command work, append :Z to the volumes creation; for example, -v USD(pwd)/:/kubeconfig:Z . This allows podman to do the proper SELinux relabeling. Procedure Open a shell prompt in the directory containing the kubeconfig file. You provide the test image with a kubeconfig file in current directory and its related USDKUBECONFIG environment variable, mounted through a volume. This allows the running container to use the kubeconfig file from inside the container. Run the latency tests by entering the following command: USD podman run -v USD(pwd)/:/kubeconfig:Z -e KUBECONFIG=/kubeconfig/kubeconfig \ -e LATENCY_TEST_RUN=true -e DISCOVERY_MODE=true -e FEATURES=performance registry.redhat.io/openshift4/cnf-tests-rhel8:v4.12 \ /usr/bin/test-run.sh -ginkgo.focus="\[performance\]\ Latency\ Test" Optional: Append -ginkgo.dryRun to run the latency tests in dry-run mode. This is useful for checking what the tests run. Optional: Append -ginkgo.v to run the tests with increased verbosity. Optional: To run the latency tests against a specific performance profile, run the following command, substituting appropriate values: USD podman run -v USD(pwd)/:/kubeconfig:Z -e KUBECONFIG=/kubeconfig/kubeconfig \ -e LATENCY_TEST_RUN=true -e FEATURES=performance -e LATENCY_TEST_RUNTIME=600 -e MAXIMUM_LATENCY=20 \ -e PERF_TEST_PROFILE=<performance_profile> registry.redhat.io/openshift4/cnf-tests-rhel8:v4.12 \ /usr/bin/test-run.sh -ginkgo.focus="[performance]\ Latency\ Test" where: <performance_profile> Is the name of the performance profile you want to run the latency tests against. Important For valid latency test results, run the tests for at least 12 hours. 14.4.1. Running hwlatdetect The hwlatdetect tool is available in the rt-kernel package with a regular subscription of Red Hat Enterprise Linux (RHEL) 8.x. Important Always run the latency tests with DISCOVERY_MODE=true set. If you don't, the test suite will make changes to the running cluster configuration. Note When executing podman commands as a non-root or non-privileged user, mounting paths can fail with permission denied errors. To make the podman command work, append :Z to the volumes creation; for example, -v USD(pwd)/:/kubeconfig:Z . This allows podman to do the proper SELinux relabeling. Prerequisites You have installed the real-time kernel in the cluster. You have logged in to registry.redhat.io with your Customer Portal credentials. Procedure To run the hwlatdetect tests, run the following command, substituting variable values as appropriate: USD podman run -v USD(pwd)/:/kubeconfig:Z -e KUBECONFIG=/kubeconfig/kubeconfig \ -e LATENCY_TEST_RUN=true -e DISCOVERY_MODE=true -e FEATURES=performance -e ROLE_WORKER_CNF=worker-cnf \ -e LATENCY_TEST_RUNTIME=600 -e MAXIMUM_LATENCY=20 \ registry.redhat.io/openshift4/cnf-tests-rhel8:v4.12 \ /usr/bin/test-run.sh -ginkgo.v -ginkgo.focus="hwlatdetect" The hwlatdetect test runs for 10 minutes (600 seconds). The test runs successfully when the maximum observed latency is lower than MAXIMUM_LATENCY (20 ms). If the results exceed the latency threshold, the test fails. Important For valid results, the test should run for at least 12 hours.

However, the same output can indicate different results based on the following factors: The duration of the test The number of CPU cores The host firmware settings Warning Before proceeding with the latency test, ensure that the latency reported by hwlatdetect meets the required threshold. Fixing latencies introduced by hardware might require you to contact the system vendor support. Not all latency spikes are hardware related. Ensure that you tune the host firmware to meet your workload requirements. For more information, see Setting firmware parameters for system tuning . 14.4.2. Running cyclictest The cyclictest tool measures the real-time kernel scheduler latency on the specified CPUs. Important Always run the latency tests with DISCOVERY_MODE=true set. If you don't, the test suite will make changes to the running cluster configuration. Note When executing podman commands as a non-root or non-privileged user, mounting paths can fail with permission denied errors. To make the podman command work, append :Z to the volumes creation; for example, -v USD(pwd)/:/kubeconfig:Z . This allows podman to do the proper SELinux relabeling. Prerequisites You have logged in to registry.redhat.io with your Customer Portal credentials. You have installed the real-time kernel in the cluster. You have applied a cluster performance profile by using Node Tuning Operator. Procedure To perform the cyclictest , run the following command, substituting variable values as appropriate: USD podman run -v USD(pwd)/:/kubeconfig:Z -e KUBECONFIG=/kubeconfig/kubeconfig \ -e LATENCY_TEST_RUN=true -e DISCOVERY_MODE=true -e FEATURES=performance -e ROLE_WORKER_CNF=worker-cnf \ -e LATENCY_TEST_CPUS=10 -e LATENCY_TEST_RUNTIME=600 -e MAXIMUM_LATENCY=20 \ registry.redhat.io/openshift4/cnf-tests-rhel8:v4.12 \ /usr/bin/test-run.sh -ginkgo.v -ginkgo.focus="cyclictest" The command runs the cyclictest tool for 10 minutes (600 seconds). The test runs successfully when the maximum observed latency is lower than MAXIMUM_LATENCY (in this example, 20 ms). Latency spikes of 20 ms and above are generally not acceptable for telco RAN workloads. If the results exceed the latency threshold, the test fails. Important For valid results, the test should run for at least 12 hours.

Running oslat The oslat test simulates a CPU-intensive DPDK application and measures all the interruptions and disruptions to test how the cluster handles CPU heavy data processing. Important Always run the latency tests with DISCOVERY_MODE=true set. If you don't, the test suite will make changes to the running cluster configuration. Note When executing podman commands as a non-root or non-privileged user, mounting paths can fail with permission denied errors. To make the podman command work, append :Z to the volumes creation; for example, -v USD(pwd)/:/kubeconfig:Z . This allows podman to do the proper SELinux relabeling. Prerequisites You have logged in to registry.redhat.io with your Customer Portal credentials. You have applied a cluster performance profile by using the Node Tuning Operator. Procedure To perform the oslat test, run the following command, substituting variable values as appropriate: USD podman run -v USD(pwd)/:/kubeconfig:Z -e KUBECONFIG=/kubeconfig/kubeconfig \ -e LATENCY_TEST_RUN=true -e DISCOVERY_MODE=true -e FEATURES=performance -e ROLE_WORKER_CNF=worker-cnf \ -e LATENCY_TEST_CPUS=10 -e LATENCY_TEST_RUNTIME=600 -e MAXIMUM_LATENCY=20 \ registry.redhat.io/openshift4/cnf-tests-rhel8:v4.12 \ /usr/bin/test-run.sh -ginkgo.v -ginkgo.focus="oslat" LATENCY_TEST_CPUS specifies the list of CPUs to test with the oslat command. The command runs the oslat tool for 10 minutes (600 seconds). The test runs successfully when the maximum observed latency is lower than MAXIMUM_LATENCY (20 ms). If the results exceed the latency threshold, the test fails. Important For valid results, the test should run for at least 12 hours.

Generating a latency test failure report Use the following procedures to generate a JUnit latency test output and test failure report. Prerequisites You have installed the OpenShift CLI ( oc ). You have logged in as a user with cluster-admin privileges. Procedure Create a test failure report with information about the cluster state and resources for troubleshooting by passing the --report parameter with the path to where the report is dumped: USD podman run -v USD(pwd)/:/kubeconfig:Z -v USD(pwd)/reportdest:<report_folder_path> \ -e KUBECONFIG=/kubeconfig/kubeconfig -e DISCOVERY_MODE=true -e FEATURES=performance \ registry.redhat.io/openshift4/cnf-tests-rhel8:v4.12 \ /usr/bin/test-run.sh --report <report_folder_path> \ -ginkgo.focus="\[performance\]\ Latency\ Test" where: <report_folder_path> Is the path to the folder where the report is generated. 14.6. Generating a JUnit latency test report Use the following procedures to generate a JUnit latency test output and test failure report. Prerequisites You have installed the OpenShift CLI ( oc ). You have logged in as a user with cluster-admin privileges. Procedure Create a JUnit-compliant XML report by passing the --junit parameter together with the path to where the report is dumped: USD podman run -v USD(pwd)/:/kubeconfig:Z -v USD(pwd)/junitdest:<junit_folder_path> \ -e KUBECONFIG=/kubeconfig/kubeconfig -e DISCOVERY_MODE=true -e FEATURES=performance \ registry.redhat.io/openshift4/cnf-tests-rhel8:v4.12 \ /usr/bin/test-run.sh --junit <junit_folder_path> \ -ginkgo.focus="\[performance\]\ Latency\ Test" where: <junit_folder_path> Is the path to the folder where the junit report is generated 14.7. Running latency tests on a single-node OpenShift cluster You can run latency tests on single-node OpenShift clusters. Important Always run the latency tests with DISCOVERY_MODE=true set. If you don't, the test suite will make changes to the running cluster configuration. Note When executing podman commands as a non-root or non-privileged user, mounting paths can fail with permission denied errors. To make the podman command work, append :Z to the volumes creation; for example, -v USD(pwd)/:/kubeconfig:Z . This allows podman to do the proper SELinux relabeling. Prerequisites You have installed the OpenShift CLI ( oc ). You have logged in as a user with cluster-admin privileges. Procedure To run the latency tests on a single-node OpenShift cluster, run the following command: USD podman run -v USD(pwd)/:/kubeconfig:Z -e KUBECONFIG=/kubeconfig/kubeconfig \ -e DISCOVERY_MODE=true -e FEATURES=performance -e ROLE_WORKER_CNF=master \ registry.redhat.io/openshift4/cnf-tests-rhel8:v4.12 \ /usr/bin/test-run.sh -ginkgo.focus="\[performance\]\ Latency\ Test" Note ROLE_WORKER_CNF=master is required because master is the only machine pool to which the node belongs. For more information about setting the required MachineConfigPool for the latency tests, see "Prerequisites for running latency tests". After running the test suite, all the dangling resources are cleaned up. 14.8. Running latency tests in a disconnected cluster The CNF tests image can run tests in a disconnected cluster that is not able to reach external registries. This requires two steps: Mirroring the cnf-tests image to the custom disconnected registry. Instructing the tests to consume the images from the custom disconnected registry. Mirroring the images to a custom registry accessible from the cluster A mirror executable is shipped in the image to provide the input required by oc to mirror the test image to a local registry. Run this command from an intermediate machine that has access to the cluster and registry.redhat.io : USD podman run -v USD(pwd)/:/kubeconfig:Z -e KUBECONFIG=/kubeconfig/kubeconfig \ registry.redhat.io/openshift4/cnf-tests-rhel8:v4.12 \ /usr/bin/mirror -registry <disconnected_registry> | oc image mirror -f - where: <disconnected_registry> Is the disconnected mirror registry you have configured, for example, my.local.registry:5000/ . When you have mirrored the cnf-tests image into the disconnected registry, you must override the original registry used to fetch the images when running the tests, for example: USD podman run -v USD(pwd)/:/kubeconfig:Z -e KUBECONFIG=/kubeconfig/kubeconfig \ -e DISCOVERY_MODE=true -e FEATURES=performance -e IMAGE_REGISTRY="<disconnected_registry>" \ -e CNF_TESTS_IMAGE="cnf-tests-rhel8:v4.12" \ /usr/bin/test-run.sh -ginkgo.focus="\[performance\]\ Latency\ Test" Configuring the tests to consume images from a custom registry You can run the latency tests using a custom test image and image registry using CNF_TESTS_IMAGE and IMAGE_REGISTRY variables. To configure the latency tests to use a custom test image and image registry, run the following command: USD podman run -v USD(pwd)/:/kubeconfig:Z -e KUBECONFIG=/kubeconfig/kubeconfig \ -e IMAGE_REGISTRY="<custom_image_registry>" \ -e CNF_TESTS_IMAGE="<custom_cnf-tests_image>" \ -e FEATURES=performance \ registry.redhat.io/openshift4/cnf-tests-rhel8:v4.12 /usr/bin/test-run.sh where: <custom_image_registry> is the custom image registry, for example, custom.registry:5000/ . <custom_cnf-tests_image> is the custom cnf-tests image, for example, custom-cnf-tests-image:latest . Mirroring images to the cluster OpenShift image registry OpenShift Container Platform provides a built-in container image registry, which runs as a standard workload on the cluster. Procedure Gain external access to the registry by exposing it with a route: USD oc patch configs.imageregistry.operator.openshift.io/cluster --patch '{"spec":{"defaultRoute":true}}' --type=merge Fetch the registry endpoint by running the following command: USD REGISTRY=USD(oc get route default-route -n openshift-image-registry --template='{{ .spec.host }}') Create a namespace for exposing the images: USD oc create ns cnftests Make the image stream available to all the namespaces used for tests. This is required to allow the tests namespaces to fetch the images from the cnf-tests image stream. Run the following commands: USD oc policy add-role-to-user system:image-puller system:serviceaccount:cnf-features-testing:default --namespace=cnftests USD oc policy add-role-to-user system:image-puller system:serviceaccount:performance-addon-operators-testing:default --namespace=cnftests Retrieve the docker secret name and auth token by running the following commands: USD SECRET=USD(oc -n cnftests get secret | grep builder-docker | awk {'print USD1'} USD TOKEN=USD(oc -n cnftests get secret USDSECRET -o jsonpath="{.data['\.dockercfg']}" | base64 --decode | jq '.["image-registry.openshift-image-registry.svc:5000"].auth') Create a dockerauth.json file, for example: USD echo "{\"auths\": { \"USDREGISTRY\": { \"auth\": USDTOKEN } }}" > dockerauth.json Do the image mirroring: USD podman run -v USD(pwd)/:/kubeconfig:Z -e KUBECONFIG=/kubeconfig/kubeconfig \ registry.redhat.io/openshift4/cnf-tests-rhel8:4.12 \ /usr/bin/mirror -registry USDREGISTRY/cnftests | oc image mirror --insecure=true \ -a=USD(pwd)/dockerauth.json -f - Run the tests: USD podman run -v USD(pwd)/:/kubeconfig:Z -e KUBECONFIG=/kubeconfig/kubeconfig \ -e DISCOVERY_MODE=true -e FEATURES=performance -e IMAGE_REGISTRY=image-registry.openshift-image-registry.svc:5000/cnftests \ cnf-tests-local:latest /usr/bin/test-run.sh -ginkgo.focus="\[performance\]\ Latency\ Test" Mirroring a different set of test images You can optionally change the default upstream images that are mirrored for the latency tests. Procedure The mirror command tries to mirror the upstream images by default. This can be overridden by passing a file with the following format to the image: [ { "registry": "public.registry.io:5000", "image": "imageforcnftests:4.12" } ] Pass the file to the mirror command, for example saving it locally as images.json . With the following command, the local path is mounted in /kubeconfig inside the container and that can be passed to the mirror command. USD podman run -v USD(pwd)/:/kubeconfig:Z -e KUBECONFIG=/kubeconfig/kubeconfig \ registry.redhat.io/openshift4/cnf-tests-rhel8:v4.12 /usr/bin/mirror \ --registry "my.local.registry:5000/" --images "/kubeconfig/images.json" \ | oc image mirror -f - 14.9. Troubleshooting errors with the cnf-tests container To run latency tests, the cluster must be accessible from within the cnf-tests container. Prerequisites You have installed the OpenShift CLI ( oc ). You have logged in as a user with cluster-admin privileges. Procedure Verify that the cluster is accessible from inside the cnf-tests container by running the following command: USD podman run -v USD(pwd)/:/kubeconfig:Z -e KUBECONFIG=/kubeconfig/kubeconfig \ registry.redhat.io/openshift4/cnf-tests-rhel8:v4.12 \ oc get nodes If this command does not work, an error related to spanning across DNS, MTU size, or firewall access might be occurring.
