Hello, I hope you can assist me on the following debate. I need to develop a driver/application which capture and output video frames from PCIe device , and is using Intel cpu (i7), and Intel's media sdk server framework for the video compression. I am not sure what will be a better choice between the following 2 options: 1. application which use dpdk for capture and output to the PCIe device 2. v4l driver for the PCIe device Intel advocate the usage of dpdk (framework for packet processing). dpdk is supposed to be able to read/write from PCIe device too. I tried to see the prons/cons of dpdk compared to v4l. prons of dpdk, as I understand them: 1. userspace application (easier debugging compared to kernel debugging of v4l device driver) 2. supposed better performance cons of dpdk compared to v4l: 1. I could not find examples for PCIe device usage , or samples for showing how application (such as media sdk) use dpdk video frames. Thank you for any feedback on the matter, Regards, Ran -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-media" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
