Subject: [dpdk-users] mbuf free cnt not decreasing
Date: Fri, 15 Apr 2016 10:34:03 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <CABbgvkurz25E9VZZCi=FJaPDbVQF2ky-vu1w-+bQTEZRauPP_Q@mail.gmail.com> (raw)
Hello,
I've developed an application using DPDK to make forwarding and
encapsulation/decapsulation between two end nodes.
This application uses two eth interfaces and creates two KNI interfaces to
forward the packets:
- the encapsulated ones through the eth interfaces
- the not encapsulated (standard packets) through the KNI interfaces
The problem I'm facing is my mbuf free count (as given by
rte_mempool_free_count()) keeps increasing and tops at ~8130. Being 8192
the size of the mempool, that stops the packet processing and my
application stops forwarding.
Any clues about what I could do to liberate the free mbufs back to the
mempool?
Regards,
Javier
