Linux kernel for uConsole

This sample program show how to use cpumap and the associated tracepoints. It provides command line stats, which shows how the XDP-RX process, cpumap-enqueue and cpumap kthread dequeue is cooperating on a per CPU basis. It also utilize the xdp_exception and xdp_redirect_err transpoints to allow users quickly to identify setup issues. One issue with ixgbe driver is that the driver reset the link when loading XDP. This reset the procfs smp_affinity settings. Thus, after loading the program, these must be reconfigured. The easiest workaround it to reduce the RX-queue to e.g. two via: # ethtool --set-channels ixgbe1 combined 2 And then add CPUs above 0 and 1, like: # xdp_redirect_cpu --dev ixgbe1 --prog 2 --cpu 2 --cpu 3 --cpu 4 Another issue with ixgbe is that the page recycle mechanism is tied to the RX-ring size. And the default setting of 512 elements is too small. This is the same issue with regular devmap XDP_REDIRECT. To overcome this I've been using 1024 rx-ring size: # ethtool -G ixgbe1 rx 1024 tx 1024 V3: - whitespace cleanups - bpf tracepoint cannot access top part of struct V4: - report on kthread sched events, according to tracepoint change - report average bulk enqueue size V5: - bpf_map_lookup_elem on cpumap not allowed from bpf_prog use separate map to mark CPUs not available V6: - correct kthread sched summary output V7: - Added a --stress-mode for concurrently changing underlying cpumap Signed-off-by: Jesper Dangaard Brouer <brouer@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
