Compiling the Application
-------------------------
-To compile the application:
+To compile the sample application see :doc:`compiling`.
-#. Go to the sample application directory:
-
- .. code-block:: console
-
- export RTE_SDK=/path/to/rte_sdk
- cd ${RTE_SDK}/examples/qos_sched
-
-#. Set the target (a default target is used if not specified). For example:
+The application is located in the ``qos_sched`` sub-directory.
.. note::
This application is intended as a linuxapp only.
- .. code-block:: console
-
- export RTE_TARGET=x86_64-native-linuxapp-gcc
-
-#. Build the application:
-
- .. code-block:: console
-
- make
-
.. note::
To get statistics on the sample app using the command line interface as described in the next section,
.. code-block:: console
- ./qos_sched -c a2 -n 4 -- --pfc "3,2,5,7" --cfg ./profile.cfg
+ ./qos_sched -l 1,5,7 -n 4 -- --pfc "3,2,5,7" --cfg ./profile.cfg
This example uses a single packet flow configuration which creates one RX thread on lcore 5 reading
from port 3 and a worker thread on lcore 7 writing to port 2.
.. code-block:: console
- ./qos_sched -c c6 -n 4 -- --pfc "3,2,2,6,7" --pfc "1,0,2,6,7" --cfg ./profile.cfg
+ ./qos_sched -l 1,2,6,7 -n 4 -- --pfc "3,2,2,6,7" --pfc "1,0,2,6,7" --cfg ./profile.cfg
Note that independent cores for the packet flow configurations for each of the RX, WT and TX thread are also supported,
providing flexibility to balance the work.
-The EAL coremask is constrained to contain the default mastercore 1 and the RX, WT and TX cores only.
+The EAL coremask/corelist is constrained to contain the default mastercore 1 and the RX, WT and TX cores only.
