# JSON-RPC {#jsonrpc} ## Overview {#jsonrpc_overview} SPDK implements a [JSON-RPC 2.0](http://www.jsonrpc.org/specification) server to allow external management tools to dynamically configure SPDK components. ## Parameters Most of the commands can take parameters. If present, parameter is validated against its domain. If this check fail whole command will fail with response error message [Invalid params](@ref jsonrpc_error_message). ### Required parameters These parameters are mandatory. If any required parameter is missing RPC command will fail with proper error response. ### Optional parameters Those parameters might be omitted. If an optional parameter is present it must be valid otherwise command will fail proper error response. ## Error response message {#jsonrpc_error_message} Each error response will contain proper message. As much as possible the message should indicate what went wrong during command processing. There is ongoing effort to customize this messages but some RPC methods just return "Invalid parameters" as message body for any kind of error. Code | Description ------ | ----------- -1 | Invalid state - given method exists but it is not callable in [current runtime state](@ref rpc_framework_start_init) -32600 | Invalid request - not compliant with JSON-RPC 2.0 Specification -32601 | Method not found -32602 | @ref jsonrpc_invalid_params -32603 | Internal error for e.g.: errors like out of memory -32700 | @ref jsonrpc_parser_error ### Parser error {#jsonrpc_parser_error} Encountered some error during parsing request like: - the JSON object is malformed - parameter is too long - request is too long ### Invalid params {#jsonrpc_invalid_params} This type of error is most common one. It mean that there is an error while processing the request like: - Parameters decoding in RPC method handler failed because required parameter is missing. - Unknown parameter present encountered. - Parameter type doesn't match expected type e.g.: given number when expected a string. - Parameter domain check failed. - Request is valid but some other error occurred during processing request. If possible message explains the error reason nature. ## rpc.py {#rpc_py} SPDK provides a set of Python scripts which can invoke the JSON-RPC methods described in this document. 'rpc.py' in the scripts directory is the main script that users will invoke to execute a JSON-RPC method. The scripts/rpc directory contains modules that 'rpc.py' imports for definitions of each SPDK library's or module's methods. Example: ~~~bash scripts/rpc.py bdev_nvme_attach_controller -b nvme0 -a 00:02.0 -t pcie ~~~ A brief description of each of the RPC methods and optional 'rpc.py' arguments can be viewed with: ~~~bash scripts/rpc.py --help ~~~ A detailed description of each RPC method and its parameters is also available. For example: ~~~bash scripts/rpc.py bdev_nvme_attach_controller --help ~~~ ### Generate JSON-RPC methods for current configuration {#jsonrpc_generate} An initial configuration can be specified for an SPDK application via the '-c' command line parameter. The configuration file is a JSON file containing all of the JSON-RPC method invocations necessary for the desired configuration. Writing these files by hand is extremely tedious however, so 'rpc.py' provides a mechanism to generate a JSON-RPC file based on the current configuration. ~~~bash scripts/rpc.py save_config > config.json ~~~ 'config.json' can then be passed to a new SPDK application using the '-c' command line parameter to reproduce the same configuration. ### JSON-RPC batching 'rpc.py' also supports batching of multiple JSON-RPC methods with one invocation. So instead of calling 'rpc.py' once for each JSON-RPC method, such as: ~~~bash scripts/rpc.py bdev_malloc_create -b malloc0 64 512 scripts/rpc.py nvmf_create_subsystem nqn.2016-06.io.spdk:cnode1 -a scripts/rpc.py nvmf_subsystem_add_ns nqn.2016-06.io.spdk:cnode1 malloc0 scripts/rpc.py nvmf_create_transport -t tcp scripts/rpc.py nvmf_subsystem_add_listener nqn.2016-06.io.spdk:cnode1 -t tcp -a 127.0.0.1 -s 4420 ~~~ you can put the following into a text file: ~~~bash bdev_malloc_create -b malloc0 64 512 nvmf_create_subsystem nqn.2016-06.io.spdk:cnode1 -a nvmf_subsystem_add_ns nqn.2016-06.io.spdk:cnode1 malloc0 nvmf_create_transport -t tcp nvmf_subsystem_add_listener nqn.2016-06.io.spdk:cnode1 -t tcp -a 127.0.0.1 -s 4420 ~~~ and then just do: ~~~bash scripts/rpc.py < rpc.txt ~~~ ### Adding external RPC methods SPDK includes both in-tree modules as well as the ability to use external modules. The in-tree modules include some python scripts to ease the process of sending RPCs to in-tree modules. External modules can utilize this same framework to add new RPC methods as follows: If PYTHONPATH doesn't include the location of the external RPC python script, it should be updated: ~~~bash export PYTHONPATH=/home/user/plugin_example/ ~~~ In provided location, create python module file (e.g. rpc_plugin.py) with new RPC methods. The file should contain spdk_rpc_plugin_initialize() method that will be called when the plugin is loaded to define new parsers for provided subparsers argument that adds new RPC calls (subparsers.add_parser()). The new parsers should use the client.call() method to call RPC functions registered within the external module using the SPDK_RPC_REGISTER() macro. Example: ~~~python from rpc.client import print_json def example_create(client, num_blocks, block_size, name=None, uuid=None): """Construct an example block device. Args: num_blocks: size of block device in blocks block_size: block size of device; must be a power of 2 and at least 512 name: name of block device (optional) uuid: UUID of block device (optional) Returns: Name of created block device. """ params = {'num_blocks': num_blocks, 'block_size': block_size} if name: params['name'] = name if uuid: params['uuid'] = uuid return client.call('bdev_example_create', params) def example_delete(client, name): """Delete example block device. Args: bdev_name: name of bdev to delete """ params = {'name': name} return client.call('bdev_example_delete', params) def spdk_rpc_plugin_initialize(subparsers): def bdev_example_create(args): num_blocks = (args.total_size * 1024 * 1024) // args.block_size print_json(example_create(args.client, num_blocks=int(num_blocks), block_size=args.block_size, name=args.name, uuid=args.uuid)) p = subparsers.add_parser('bdev_example_create', help='Create an example bdev') p.add_argument('-b', '--name', help="Name of the bdev") p.add_argument('-u', '--uuid', help="UUID of the bdev") p.add_argument( 'total_size', help='Size of bdev in MB (float > 0)', type=float) p.add_argument('block_size', help='Block size for this bdev', type=int) p.set_defaults(func=bdev_example_create) def bdev_example_delete(args): example_delete(args.client, name=args.name) p = subparsers.add_parser('bdev_example_delete', help='Delete an example disk') p.add_argument('name', help='example bdev name') p.set_defaults(func=bdev_example_delete) ~~~ Finally, call the rpc.py script with '--plugin' parameter to provide above python module name: ~~~bash ./scripts/rpc.py --plugin rpc_plugin bdev_example_create 10 4096 ~~~ ### Converting from legacy configuration {#jsonrpc_convert} Starting with SPDK 20.10, legacy configuration file support has been removed. Users with extensive configuration files already running in SPDK application, can [generate JSON-RPC for current configuration](@ref jsonrpc_generate). If binary for deploying the application is unavailable, the legacy configuration file can be converted to JSON-RPC using python tool: ~~~bash ./scripts/config_converter.py < config.ini > config.json ~~~ ## App Framework {#jsonrpc_components_app} ### spdk_kill_instance {#rpc_spdk_kill_instance} Send a signal to the application. #### Parameters Name | Optional | Type | Description ----------------------- | -------- | ----------- | ----------- sig_name | Required | string | Signal to send (SIGINT, SIGTERM, SIGQUIT, SIGHUP, or SIGKILL) #### Example Example request: ~~~json { "jsonrpc": "2.0", "id": 1, "method": "spdk_kill_instance", "params": { "sig_name": "SIGINT" } } ~~~ Example response: ~~~json { "jsonrpc": "2.0", "id": 1, "result": true } ~~~ ### framework_monitor_context_switch {#rpc_framework_monitor_context_switch} Query, enable, or disable the context switch monitoring functionality. #### Parameters Name | Optional | Type | Description ----------------------- | -------- | ----------- | ----------- enabled | Optional | boolean | Enable (`true`) or disable (`false`) monitoring (omit this parameter to query the current state) #### Response Name | Type | Description ----------------------- | ----------- | ----------- enabled | boolean | The current state of context switch monitoring #### Example Example request: ~~~json { "jsonrpc": "2.0", "id": 1, "method": "framework_monitor_context_switch", "params": { "enabled": false } } ~~~ Example response: ~~~json { "jsonrpc": "2.0", "id": 1, "result": { "enabled": false } } ~~~ ### framework_start_init {#rpc_framework_start_init} Start initialization of SPDK subsystems when it is deferred by starting SPDK application with option -w.

Controller name will be used to create UNIX domain socket. This implies that name concatenated with vhost socket directory path needs to be valid UNIX socket name. @ref cpu_mask parameter is used to choose CPU on which pollers will be launched when new initiator is connecting. It must be a subset of application CPU mask. Default value is CPU mask of the application. ### vhost_controller_set_coalescing {#rpc_vhost_controller_set_coalescing} Controls interrupt coalescing for specific target.
