Building DSS Target

After installing required dependencies the 'build.sh' script can be run to build all packages.

To build with the default options run the following,

./build.sh

To build binaries with gcov coverage support run with following option,

./build.sh --with-coverage

To build and run unit tests run with following option

./build.sh --run-tests

To build with coverage, run tests and generate coverage report run with following options,

./build.sh --with-coverage --run-tests

The binaries and packages are created in the output folder '../df_out'

dss_target.py

A. Creates subsystems and configuration for nvmf_tgt Option 1: Configure based on vlan ids python dss_target.py configure --vlan-ids space-separated list of vlan ids -kv_fw firmware -kv_ssc number of kv subsystems to create This will automatically discover the correct IPs and create the subsystems Option 2: Configure using IP addresses python dss_target.py configure -ip_addrs space-separated list of local ip addresses -kv_fw firmware -kv_ssc number of kv subsystems to create

The only difference between option 1 and option 2 is whether the IP of the interfaces on the desired vlans is discovered based on vlan ID or specified manually

After running either Option 1 or Option 2, it will output run_nvmf_tgt.sh. Run this script to start the client

Command line flags:
    Option 1: -vids/--vlan-ids must be specified, -ip_addrs/--ip_addresses must NOT be specified
        -vids/--vlan-ids: space delimited list of (numeric) vlan ids
    Option 1: -ip_addrs/--ip_addresses must be specified -vids/--vlan-ids must NOT be specified, 
        -ip_addrs/--ip_addresses: List of IPs
    Common:
    -c/--config_file: Name of output file for nvmf_tgt config
    -kv_fw/--kv_firmware: KV firmware version for the SSDs
    -block_fw/--block_firmware: block firmware version for the SSDs (only if using block)
    -wal/--wal: Number of block devices to handle write burst
    -tcp/--tcp: 1 to enable tcp, 0 to disable tcp
    -rdma/--rdma: 1 to enable rdma, 0 to disable rdma
    -kv_ssc/--kv_ssc: number of kv subsystems to create
