These are just examples and may not run as expected:
./build/exception_path -c 0x03 -n 2 --proc-type auto --socket-mem 256,256
--file-prefix ex -- -p 0x01 -i 2 -o 1
./build/pktgen -c 0x1f0 -n 3 --proc-type auto --socket-mem 256,256
--file-prefix pg -- -p 0x00c -P -m "[1:3].0, [2:4].1?
You need to make sure you use
. different cores for each application.
. --proc-type auto on both, start one of the applications first to
define
it as the master.
. --file-prefix XXX to force DPDK to use different files in the
/mnt/huge
directories. The XXX is the file prefix say ?pg? for Pktgen and you could
leave the option off the other other application, but I would add one like
?file-prefix ex
. --socket-mem X,Y to split up the memory for each application. If you
have two sockets and 1024 huge pages allocated in the system then use
--socket-mem 512,512 for each application. You can have one application
with more or less then the other application. If you have one socket then
--socket-mem X on one then --socket-mem Y on the other.
. split up the ports between the applications as well, it is not easy to
share a port unless you want to design the applications as a true
master/secondary processes.
