2015-05-22pktgen: add sample script pktgen_sample02_multiqueue.shJesper Dangaard Brouer
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.

2015-02-23samples/pktgen: Use bash as interpreterBen Hutchings
These scripts use the non-POSIX 'function' and 'local' keywords so they won't work with every /bin/sh. We could drop 'function' as it is a no-op, but 'local' makes for cleaner scripts. Require use of bash. Signed-off-by: Ben Hutchings <ben.hutchings@codethink.co.uk> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

2015-02-23samples/pktgen: Correct comments about the thread configBen Hutchings
They all claimed to be two CPU examples using eth1, eth2 but that is only true in one case! Rob Jones pointed out spelling and grammar errors here, which I've also corrected.

2015-02-23samples/pktgen: Delete unused function pg()Ben Hutchings
This function is not used and wouldn't do anything useful as pktgen does not have an 'inject' command. Signed-off-by: Ben Hutchings <ben.hutchings@codethink.co.uk> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
2015-02-23samples/pktgen: Add sample scripts for pktgen facilityBen Hutchings
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. Change the documentation to refer to these consistently as 'sample scripts', matching the directory name used here.
