Compiling the Application
|
||||
=========================
|
||||
|
||||
The testpmd application is compiled as part of the main compilation of the Intel® DPDK libraries and tools.
|
||||
Refer to the Intel® DPDK Getting Started Guide for details.
|
||||
The basic compilation steps are:
|
||||
|
||||
#. Set the required environmental variables and go to the source directory:
|
||||
|
||||
.. code-block:: console
|
||||
|
||||
export RTE_SDK=/path/to/rte_sdk
|
||||
cd $RTE_SDK
|
||||
|
||||
#. Set the compilation target. For example:
|
||||
|
||||
.. code-block:: console
|
||||
|
||||
export RTE_TARGET=x86_64-native-linuxapp-gcc
|
||||
|
||||
#. Build the application:
|
||||
|
||||
.. code-block:: console
|
||||
|
||||
make install T=$RTE_TARGET
|
||||
|
||||
The compiled application will be located at:
|
||||
|
||||
.. code-block:: console
|
||||
|
||||
$RTE_SDK/$RTE_TARGET/build/app/testpmd

Introduction
|
||||
============
|
||||
|
||||
This document is a user guide for the testpmd example application that is shipped as part of the Intel® Data Plane Development Kit.
|
||||
|
||||
The testpmd application can be used to test the Intel® DPDK in a packet forwarding mode
|
||||
and also to access NIC hardware features such as Flow Director.
|
||||
It also serves as a example of how to build a more fully-featured application using the Intel® DPDK SDK.
|
||||
|
||||

||||
|
||||
* Optimizations used in the software and those that should be considered for new development
|
||||
|
||||
A glossary of terms is also provided.

Testpmd Command-line Options
|
||||
----------------------------
|
||||
|
||||
The following are the command-line options for the testpmd applications.
|
||||
They must be separated from the EAL options, shown in the previous section, with a -- separator:
|
||||
|
||||
.. code-block:: console
|
||||
|
||||
sudo ./testpmd -c 0xF -n 4 -- -i --portmask=0x1 --nb-cores=2
|
||||
|
||||
* -i, --interactive
|
||||
|
||||
Run testpmd in interactive mode.
|
||||
In this mode, the testpmd starts with a prompt that can be used to start and stop forwarding,
|
||||
configure the application and display stats on the current packet processing session.
|
||||
See the Section 5.0, "Test Runtime Functions" section for more details.
|
||||
|
||||
In non-interactive mode,
|
||||
the application starts with the configuration specified on the command-line and
|
||||
immediately enters forwarding mode.
|
||||
|
||||
* -h, --help
|
||||
|
||||
Display a help message and quit.
|
||||
|
||||

||||
* --nb-cores=N
|
||||
|
||||
Set the number of forwarding cores,
|
||||
where 1 <= N <= number of cores or RTE_MAX_LCORE from the configuration file.

||||
* --nb-ports=N
|
||||
|
||||
Set the number of forwarding ports,
|
||||
where 1 <= N <= number of ports on the board or RTE_MAX_ETHPORTS from the configuration file.

||||
|
||||
* --coremask=0xXX
|
||||
|
||||
Set the hexadecimal bitmask of the cores running the packet forwarding test.
|
||||
The master lcore is reserved for command line parsing only and cannot be masked on for packet forwarding.
|
||||
|
||||

||||
|
||||
Set the hexadecimal bitmask of the ports used by the packet forwarding test.
|
||||

||||
|
||||

|
||||
|
||||
Set the socket from which all memory is allocated in NUMA mode,
|
||||
where 0 <= N < number of sockets on the board.
|
||||
|
||||
* --mbuf-size=N
|
||||
