OK. I see that in source code. But I am still pretty in the dark here to start using XDP. More newbie questions are necessary. My goal is simple: to control the bandwidth of a few (or a lot) thousands users using an of-the-shelf (almost) box. Two 10Gbps ether interface. One internal, one external. What come in thru eth0 goes out to eth0 or eth1 and what comes in thru eth1 comes out to eth0. Is there a road map about what to execute and in what order to achieve this task using xdp-cpumap-tc? I have cloned xdp-cpumap-tc to try figuring it out reading the source code. But things did not get together. For instance, tc_classify_kern.c (as tc_queue_mapping_kern.c) "talks" about a "manuel" (sic) setup: tc qdisc add dev ixgbe2 clsact tc filter add dev ixgbe2 egress bpf da obj tc_classify_kern.o sec tc_classify At what point these commands are to be executed? They are not mentioned anywhere else. (tc_mq_htb_setup_example.sh forgot these perhaps?) Which one is be to loaded tc_classify_kern or tc_queue_mapping_kern? Or both? None? After and before what? In the file tc_classify_kern.c, map_ifindex_type is defined differently from xdp_iphash_to_cpu_kern.c. ".size_value = sizeof(struct txq_config)" in the former and ".size_value = sizeof(__u32)" int the later. Is this a "Cut and paste" typo? Are they really meant to be two different maps? Anyway, a step by step guide would be appreciated. Maybe it is time to start populating that BNG-router repo I was told about. How can I start helping with that? Worth doing it? Regards Ethy
