In order to improve performance, the KNI is made to support multiple fifos, So that multiple threads pinned to multiple cores can process packets in parallel. Signed-off-by: dheemanth <redacted>
Hi Dheemanth, I didn't check the patch yet but as a very high level comment, it is possible to create multiple KNI interface and use multiple cores for each, instead of multiple FIFO in a single interface. KNI example uses this approach. Did you investigate this approach? What is the benefit of multiple FIFO against multiple KNI interface? Thanks, ferruh
