Anyone knows how to turn off TSO in DPDK+SR-IOV in KVM guest VM ? I want the packets sending out of the KVM host not to have TSO by the hardware. I imagine that I need to do the following: 1. turn off TSO in the guest before starting DPDK using ethtool -K ethX tso off After DPDK is started, th

Hi, Considering the fact that there are many developers using c++, I totally persuade/agree with the addition of c++ functionality, and thanks to Thomas's guidelines it won't create any overhead in usage. All the Best, --Hamid On 1/14/14, Thomas Monjalon wrote: > Hello Venky, > > 14/01/2014 14:

I think in general, developers are pretty particular about their makefiles and build framework. This is especially true if you have an existing application; migrating it to use dpdk?s build framework is rather cumbersome and likely a non-starter for bigger complex projects. Hence, separating app
