RX/TX Callbacks Sample Application
==================================
packets to add a timestamp. A separate callback is applied to all packets
prior to transmission to calculate the elapsed time, in CPU cycles.
+If hardware timestamping is supported by the NIC, the sample application will
+also display the average latency since the packet was timestamped in hardware,
+on top of the latency since the packet was received and processed by the RX
+callback.
Compiling the Application
-------------------------
-To compile the application export the path to the DPDK source tree and go to
-the example directory:
-
-.. code-block:: console
-
- export RTE_SDK=/path/to/rte_sdk
-
- cd ${RTE_SDK}/examples/rxtx_callbacks
-
-
-Set the target, for example:
-
-.. code-block:: console
-
- export RTE_TARGET=x86_64-native-linuxapp-gcc
+To compile the sample application see :doc:`compiling`.
-See the *DPDK Getting Started* Guide for possible ``RTE_TARGET`` values.
+The application is located in the ``rxtx_callbacks`` sub-directory.
The callbacks feature requires that the ``CONFIG_RTE_ETHDEV_RXTX_CALLBACKS``
setting is on in the ``config/common_`` config file that applies to the
CONFIG_RTE_ETHDEV_RXTX_CALLBACKS=y
-Build the application as follows:
-
-.. code-block:: console
-
- make
-
-
Running the Application
-----------------------
-To run the example in a ``linuxapp`` environment:
+To run the example in a ``linux`` environment:
.. code-block:: console
- ./build/rxtx_callbacks -c 2 -n 4
+ ./build/rxtx_callbacks -l 1 -n 4 -- [-t]
+
+Use -t to enable hardware timestamping. If not supported by the NIC, an error
+will be displayed.
Refer to *DPDK Getting Started Guide* for general information on running
applications and the Environment Abstraction Layer (EAL) options.
