Jesper Dangaard Brouer 0fca931a6f samples/bpf: program demonstrating access to xdp_rxq_info
This sample program can be used for monitoring and reporting how many
packets per sec (pps) are received per NIC RX queue index and which
CPU processed the packet. In itself it is a useful tool for quickly
identifying RSS imbalance issues, see below.

The default XDP action is XDP_PASS in-order to provide a monitor
mode. For benchmarking purposes it is possible to specify other XDP
actions on the cmdline --action.

Output below shows an imbalance RSS case where most RXQ's deliver to
CPU-0 while CPU-2 only get packets from a single RXQ.  Looking at
things from a CPU level the two CPUs are processing approx the same
amount, BUT looking at the rx_queue_index levels it is clear that
RXQ-2 receive much better service, than other RXQs which all share CPU-0.

Linux kernel
============

This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst

Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users.
These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
