mainlining shenanigans
The program nrm creates a cgroup and attaches a BPF program to the cgroup for testing HBM (Host Bandwidth Manager) for egress traffic. One still needs to create network traffic. This can be done through netesto, netperf or iperf3. A follow-up patch contains a script to create traffic. USAGE: hbm [-d] [-l] [-n <id>] [-r <rate>] [-s] [-t <secs>] [-w] [-h] [prog] Where: -d Print BPF trace debug buffer -l Also limit flows doing loopback -n <#> To create cgroup "/hbm#" and attach prog. Default is /nrm1 This is convenient when testing HBM in more than 1 cgroup -r <rate> Rate limit in Mbps -s Get HBM stats (marked, dropped, etc.) -t <time> Exit after specified seconds (deault is 0) -w Work conserving flag. cgroup can increase its bandwidth beyond the rate limit specified while there is available bandwidth. Current implementation assumes there is only NIC (eth0), but can be extended to support multiple NICs. Currrently only supported for egress. Note, this is just a proof of concept. -h Print this info prog BPF program file name. Name defaults to hbm_out_kern.o More information about HBM can be found in the paper "BPF Host Resource Management" presented at the 2018 Linux Plumbers Conference, Networking Track (http://vger.kernel.org/lpc_net2018_talks/LPC%20BPF%20Network%20Resource%20Paper.pdf) Signed-off-by: Lawrence Brakmo <brakmo@fb.com> Signed-off-by: Alexei Starovoitov <ast@kernel.org> |

Linux kernel ============ There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at: https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/ There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. 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.
