> Subject: [PATCH v10] app/dma-perf: introduce dma-perf application
> 
> There are many high-performance DMA devices supported in DPDK now,
> and these DMA devices can also be integrated into other modules of DPDK as
> accelerators, such as Vhost. Before integrating DMA into applications,
> developers need to know the performance of these DMA devices in various
> scenarios and the performance of CPUs in the same scenario, such as
> different buffer lengths. Only in this way can we know the target
> performance of the application accelerated by using them. This patch
> introduces a high-performance testing tool, which supports comparing the
> performance of CPU and DMA in different scenarios automatically with a pre-
> set config file. Memory Copy performance test are supported for now.
