* pktgen: remove sample script pktgen.conf-1-1-rdosJesper Dangaard Brouer2016-07-141-64/+0
| | | | | | | | | Removing the pktgen sample script pktgen.conf-1-1-rdos, because it does not contain anything that is not covered by the other and newer style sample scripts. Signed-off-by: Jesper Dangaard Brouer <brouer@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
* pktgen: add sample script pktgen_sample05_flow_per_thread.shJesper Dangaard Brouer2016-07-141-0/+81
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This pktgen sample script is useful for scalability testing a receiver. The script will simply generate one flow per thread (option -t N) using the thread number as part of the source IP-address. The single flow sample (pktgen_sample03_burst_single_flow.sh) have become quite popular, but it is important that developers also make sure to benchmark scalability of multiple receive queues.

* pktgen: add sample script pktgen_sample04_many_flows.shJesper Dangaard Brouer2016-07-142-67/+93
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | Adding a pktgen sample script that demonstrates how to use pktgen for simulating flows. Script will generate a certain number of concurrent flows ($FLOWS) and each flow will contain $FLOWLEN packets, which will be send back-to-back, before switching to a new flow, due to flag FLOW_SEQ. This script obsoletes the old sample script 'pktgen.conf-1-1-flows', which is removed. Signed-off-by: Jesper Dangaard Brouer <brouer@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
* net: samples: pktgen mode samples/tests for qdisc layerJohn Fastabend2016-07-041-0/+66
| | | | | | | | | This adds samples for pktgen to use with new mode to inject pkts into the qdisc layer. This also doubles as nice test cases to test any patches against qdisc layer. Signed-off-by: John Fastabend <john.r.fastabend@intel.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
* pktgen: add benchmark script pktgen_bench_xmit_mode_netif_receive.shJesper Dangaard Brouer2015-05-221-0/+86
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This script pktgen_bench_xmit_mode_netif_receive.sh is a benchmark script, which can be used for benchmarking part of the network stack. This can be used for performance improving or catching regression in that area. The script is developed for benchmarking ingress qdisc path, original idea by Alexei Starovoitov. This script don't really need any hardware. This is achieved via the recently introduced stack inject feature "xmit_mode netif_receive". See commit 62f64aed622b6 ("pktgen: introduce xmit_mode '<start_xmit|netif_receive>'"). Signed-off-by: Jesper Dangaard Brouer <brouer@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
* pktgen: add sample script pktgen_sample03_burst_single_flow.shJesper Dangaard Brouer2015-05-221-0/+82
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Add the pktgen samples script pktgen_sample03_burst_single_flow.sh that demonstrates how to acheive maximum performance. If correctly tuned[1] single CPU 10Gbit/s wirespeed small pkts is possible[2] which is 14.88Mpps. The trick is to take advantage of the "burst" feature introduced in commit 38b2cf2982dc73 ("net: pktgen: packet bursting via skb->xmit_more").

* pktgen: add sample script pktgen_sample02_multiqueue.shJesper Dangaard Brouer2015-05-223-139/+75
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Add the pktgen samples script pktgen_sample02_multiqueue.sh that demonstrates generating packets on multiqueue NICs. Specifically notice the options "-t" that specifies how many kernel threads to activate. Also notice the flag QUEUE_MAP_CPU, which cause the SKB TX queue to be mapped to the CPU running the kernel thread. For best scalability people are also encourage to map NIC IRQ /proc/irq/*/smp_affinity to CPU number. Usage example with "-t" 4 threads and help: ./pktgen_sample02_multiqueue.sh -i eth4 -m 00:1B:21:3C:9D:F8 -t 4 Usage: ./pktgen_sample02_multiqueue.sh [-vx] -i ethX -i : ($DEV) output interface/device (required) -s : ($PKT_SIZE) packet size -d : ($DEST_IP) destination IP -m : ($DST_MAC) destination MAC-addr -t : ($THREADS) threads to start -c : ($SKB_CLONE) SKB clones send before alloc new SKB -b : ($BURST) HW level bursting of SKBs -v : ($VERBOSE) verbose -x : ($DEBUG) debug Removing pktgen.conf-2-1 and pktgen.conf-2-2 as these examples should be covered now.

* pktgen: add sample script pktgen_sample01_simple.shJesper Dangaard Brouer2015-05-222-59/+71
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Add the first basic pktgen samples script pktgen_sample01_simple.sh, which demonstrates the a simple use of the helper functions. Removing pktgen.conf-1-1 as that example should be covered now. The naming scheme pktgen_sampleNN, where NN is a number, should encourage reading the samples in a specific order. Script cause pktgen sending with a single thread and single interface, and introduce flow variation via random UDP source port. Usage example and help: ./pktgen_sample01_simple.sh -i eth4 -m 00:1B:21:3C:9D:F8 -d 192.168.8.2 Usage: ./pktgen_sample01_simple.sh [-vx] -i ethX -i : ($DEV) output interface/device (required) -s : ($PKT_SIZE) packet size -d : ($DEST_IP) destination IP -m : ($DST_MAC) destination MAC-addr -c : ($SKB_CLONE) SKB clones send before alloc new SKB -v : ($VERBOSE) verbose -x : ($DEBUG) debug Signed-off-by: Jesper Dangaard Brouer <brouer@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

* pktgen: new pktgen helper functions for samples scriptsJesper Dangaard Brouer2015-05-223-0/+261
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Preparing for removing existing samples/pktgen/ scripts, and replacing these with easier to use samples. This commit provides two helper shell files, that can be "included" by shell source'ing. Namely "functions.sh" and "parameters.sh". The parameters.sh file support easy and consistant parameter parsing across the sample scripts. Usage example is printed on errors. The functions.sh file provides, three new shell functions for configuring the different components of pktgen: pg_ctrl(), pg_thread() and pg_set(). A slightly improved version of the old pgset() function is also provided for backwards compat. The new functions correspond to pktgens different components. * pg_ctrl() control "pgctrl" (/proc/net/pktgen/pgctrl) * pg_thread() control the kernel threads and binding to devices * pg_set() control setup of individual devices These changes are borrowed from: https://github.com/netoptimizer/network-testing/tree/master/pktgen Signed-off-by: Jesper Dangaard Brouer <brouer@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

These are Robert Olsson's samples which used to be available from <ftp://robur.slu.se/pub/Linux/net-development/pktgen-testing/examples/> but currently are not.
