2018-02-03samples/bpf: use bpf_set_link_xdp_fdEric Leblond1-2/+2
Use bpf_set_link_xdp_fd instead of set_link_xdp_fd to remove some code duplication and benefit of netlink ext ack errors message. Signed-off-by: Eric Leblond <eric@regit.org> Signed-off-by: Alexei Starovoitov <ast@kernel.org>
2018-01-06samples/bpf: program demonstrating access to xdp_rxq_infoJesper Dangaard Brouer1-0/+531
This sample program can be used for monitoring and reporting how many packets per sec (pps) are received per NIC RX queue index and which CPU processed the packet. In itself it is a useful tool for quickly identifying RSS imbalance issues, see below. The default XDP action is XDP_PASS in-order to provide a monitor mode. For benchmarking purposes it is possible to specify other XDP actions on the cmdline --action. Output below shows an imbalance RSS case where most RXQ's deliver to CPU-0 while CPU-2 only get packets from a single RXQ. Looking at things from a CPU level the two CPUs are processing approx the same amount, BUT looking at the rx_queue_index levels it is clear that RXQ-2 receive much better service, than other RXQs which all share CPU-0.
