Subject: [dpdk-dev] [RFC 1/3] Replace lrand48-based rte_rand with LFSR generator
Date: Mon, 8 Apr 2019 14:30:27 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20190408123029.6701-1-mattias.ronnblom@ericsson.com> (raw)
Message-ID: <20190408123027.KVANlMCbt6KjrGy6BWz1bvKYkcuFyToqLPBqykeWUG8@z> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20190405135030.09c5291a@shemminger-XPS-13-9360>
This commit replaces rte_rand()'s use of lrand48() with a DPDK-native
combined Linear Feedback Shift Register (LFSR) (also known as
Tausworthe) pseudo-number generator, with four sequences.
This generator is faster and produces better quality random numbers
than libc's lrand48() implementation. This implementation, as opposed
to lrand48(), is multi-thread safe in regards to concurrent rte_rand()
calls from different lcore threads.
