[dpdk-dev] [PATCH v4 3/3] app/flow-perf: add packet mode metering mode

Rongwei Liu rongweil at nvidia.com
Mon Nov 8 09:53:52 CET 2021


The flow perf application used the srtcm_rfc2697 as meter profile
while doing the meter testing.

This patch adds the support new configuration parameter
'--packet-mode' to generate the meter flows with the packet mode.
