Re: TCP/IP stack - options

Hi Sujith,

NetBSD/Rump is the only open source TCP/IP stack for DPDK. Some people 
may have tried to port LwIP too. As far as we know, only 6WIND has a 
robust and fully compliant stack which provides socket APIs to the 
applications on top of the DPDK. I'd be pleased to get a list of options 
for the DPDK too:
   - Rump/NetBSD thanks to Antti
   - maybe LwIP TBC
   - 6WINDGate's fast path TCP/IP stack
and to list them on dpdk.org.

My 2 cents,
   Vincent
Hi all,

I'm new to DPDK and this group.

In order to try out some of my applications on DPDK, I'd like to know a
little bit about the options that are there for protocol processing.
Could someone give info about the TCP/IP stacks that could be used with
DPDK libraries and applications?  Quick googling gave a few names (6Wind,
rump kernel tcp/ip stack, etc).  But some wise words from the group could
go a long way in helping me out.

Thanks in advance !
