Any idea ?
I answer to myself, this should do the trick : numactl -l first-touch-rr -m 1 -c 1 -- /usr/local/bin/iperf -c 192.168.2.1 -l 128KB -P 16 -i 2 -t 6000 However of course it still gives the error below : > # numactl -l first-touch-rr -m 1 -c 1 /usr/local/bin/iperf > > numactl: numa_setaffinity: Invalid argument > > And sounds like -m is not allowed with first-touch-rr. > What should I use ? > > Thank you ! > >> You can also try pinning the NIC threads to numa-domain 1 versus 0 (so >> the second set of CPUs, not the first set.) >> >> vmstat -ia | grep mlx (get the list of interrupt thread ids) >> then for each: >> >> cpuset -d 1 -x <irq id> >> >> Run pcm-memory.x each time so we can see the before and after effects >> on local versus remote memory access. >> >> Thanks! >> >> >> >> -adrian > _______________________________________________ freebsd-net@freebsd.org mailing list https://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-net To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-net-unsubscr...@freebsd.org"
