Oh, when run it at the same period, the number is stable, the range is about ~0.05M PPS. But after a long time or reboot, the speed may changed a little. Here is the new test result after I reboot the system: Kernel 5.7 + my patch(ingress i40e, egress i40e) xdp_redirect_map: generic mode: 1.9M PPS driver mode: 10.2M PPS xdp_redirect_map_multi: generic mode: 1.58M PPS driver mode: 7.16M PPS Kernel 5.7 + my patch(ingress i40e, egress i40e + veth(No XDP on peer)) xdp_redirect_map: generic mode: 2.2M PPS driver mode: 14.2M PPS xdp_redirect_map_multi: generic mode: 1.6M PPS driver mode: 9.9M PPS Kernel 5.7 + my patch(ingress i40e, egress i40e + veth(with XDP_DROP on peer)) xdp_redirect_map: generic mode: 1.6M PPS driver mode: 13.6M PPS xdp_redirect_map_multi: generic mode: 1.3M PPS driver mode: 8.7M PPS Kernel 5.7 + my patch(ingress i40e, egress i40e + veth(No XDP on peer)) xdp_redirect_map_multi: generic mode: 1.15M PPS driver mode: 3.48M PPS Kernel 5.7 + my patch(ingress i40e, egress i40e + veth(with XDP_DROP on peer)) xdp_redirect_map_multi: generic mode: 0.98M PPS driver mode: 3.15M PPS This time the number looks more reasonable.
