Subject: [RFC, v1 0/6] graph enhancement for multi-core dispatch
Date: Thu,  8 Sep 2022 10:09:53 +0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20220908020959.1675953-1-zhirun.yan@intel.com> (raw)

Currently, the rte_graph_walk() and rte_node_enqueue* fast path API
functions in graph lib implementation are designed to work on single-core.

This solution(RFC) proposes usage of cross-core dispatching mechanism to
enhance the graph scaling strategy. We introduce Scheduler Workqueue
then we could directly dispatch streams to another worker core which is
affinity with a specific node.

This RFC:
  1. Introduce core affinity API and graph clone API.
  2. Introduce key functions to enqueue/dequeue for dispatching streams.
  3. Enhance rte_graph_walk by cross-core dispatch.
  4. Add l2fwd-graph example and stats for cross-core dispatching.

With this patch set, it could easily plan and orchestrate stream on
multi-core systems.

Future work:
  1. Support to affinity lcore set for one node.
  2. Use l3fwd-graph instead of l2fwd-graph as example in patch 06.
  3. Add new parameter, like --node(nodeid, lcoreid) to config node for core
  affinity.

Comments and suggestions are welcome. Thanks!
