Storage Performance Development Kit
|
|
===================================
|
|
|
|
[SPDK on 01.org](https://01.org/spdk)
|
|
|
|
The Storage Performance Development Kit (SPDK) provides a set of tools
|
|
and libraries for writing high performance, scalable, user-mode storage
|
|
applications.
|
|
It achieves high performance by moving all of the necessary drivers into
|
|
userspace and operating in a polled mode instead of relying on interrupts,
|
|
which avoids kernel context switches and eliminates interrupt handling
|
|
overhead.
|
|
|
|
Prerequisites
|
|
=============
|
|
|
|
To build SPDK, some dependencies must be installed.
|
|
|
|
Fedora/CentOS:
|
|
|
|
- gcc
|
|
- libpciaccess-devel
|
|
- CUnit-devel
|
|
|
|
Ubuntu/Debian:
|
|
|
|
- gcc
|
|
- libpciaccess-dev
|
|
- make
|
|
- libcunit1-dev
|
|
|
|
Additionally, DPDK is required.
|
|
See [DPDK Quick Start](http://dpdk.org/doc/quick-start).
|
|
|
|
Building
|
|
========
|
|
|
|
Once the prerequisites are installed, run 'make' within the SPDK directory
|
|
to build the SPDK libraries and examples.
|
|
|
|
make DPDK_DIR=/path/to/dpdk
