[dpdk-dev] [PATCH v2] examples/l3fwd: support separate buffer pool per port

[Thomas Monjalon]

25/04/2019 11:40, Shreyansh Jain:
> Traditionally, only a single buffer pool per port
> (or, per-port-per-socket) is created in l3fwd application.
> 
> If separate pools are created per-port, it might lead to gain in
> performance as packet alloc/dealloc requests would be isolated
> across ports (and their corresponding lcores).
> 
> This patch adds an argument '--per-port-pool' to the l3fwd application.
> By default, old mode of single pool per port (split on sockets) is
> active.
> 
> L3fwd user guide is also updated by this patch.
