Subject: [dpdk-users] What is the best threading technology when using DPDK ?
Date: Mon, 1 Jul 2019 13:20:25 +0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1a2e3c0440bd4c0f849a5ff871a4c289@deltacast.tv> (raw)

Hello,

I'm developing a time critical application using DPDK that require to be multithreaded. I'm wondering what threading technology I should use ?


-          Can I use the standard pthread library and if yes, is there a trade of in term of performance ?


-          I see on this page that a lthread library also exist but is kind of limited in term of functionality:
https://doc.dpdk.org/guides/sample_app_ug/performance_thread.html


-          I see also that we can launch a function on another lcore using the rte_eal_remote_launch(...)

Is there a recommendation when using DPDK to use a technology threading technology or another ?

Regards

Antoine Pollenus
