Hello all, A new project has come into the DPDK community, a tiny tool named "dpdk-burst-replay" whitch tend to be a "tcpreplay" like based on DPDK (so, with high performance concerns).
ATM, only few features are available: - it can replay a pcap multiple times in a row. - it can replay a pcap on multiple NIC ports. - and it replay the pcap at maximum bitrate, by pre-caching the dump before starting to send packets. - and at the end, it gave some statistics. The main tool's objectives are to be simple (it manages itself all the EAL/mempool/port initialization etc) and to be as fast as possible. You can have a look on the README here: https://doc.dpdk.org/burst-replay/readme.html And at the source code here: http://git.dpdk.org/apps/dpdk-burst-replay/ Finally, to fill an issue, use the dedicated bugzilla: https://bugs.dpdk.org/enter_bug.cgi?product=dpdk-burst-replay A presentation will be made at FOSDEM this Saturday, for those who are interested and can't be there, it will be recorded and should be available next week here: https://fosdem.org/2019/schedule/event/dpdk_burst_replay/ Do not hesitate to give me feedback! NB: This tool is released under BSD 3-clause license. All contributions will be welcomed! :) Regards, Jonathan.
