Hi,
Is it possible to configure dpdk-pktgen so that it will start only
transmitting packets, without Rx mode ?
I could not find a way to achieve it.

More specifically, I mean starting dpdk-pktgen so that it won't call
rte_eth_rx_burst()   ?

(rte_eth_rx_burst() is called from pktgen_main_receive(), which is in
turn invoked from pktgen_main_rxtx_loop() and from
pktgen_main_rx_loop() in app/pktgen.c ?

Regards,
KW
