correct && we should be fixing that ... still it's worthwhile to be able and see per ring stats, specially when you're dealing/optimizing in multi-stream env. > Output examples: > > pktgen (1 core) sending ~20Mpps > > Show adapter mlx5p2 statistics (ONLY that changed!) > Ethtool(mlx5p2) stat: 19431694 ( 19,431,694) <= frames_rx /sec > Ethtool(mlx5p2) stat: 1243722215 ( 1,243,722,215) <= in_octets /sec > Ethtool(mlx5p2) stat: 19433161 ( 19,433,161) <= in_ucast_pkts /sec > Ethtool(mlx5p2) stat: 1243746943 ( 1,243,746,943) <= octets /sec > Ethtool(mlx5p2) stat: 1243629263 ( 1,243,629,263) <= octets_received /sec > Ethtool(mlx5p2) stat: 19433654 ( 19,433,654) <= p64octets /sec > Ethtool(mlx5p2) stat: 19433556 ( 19,433,556) <= pkts /sec > Ethtool(mlx5p2) stat: 1815546 ( 1,815,546) <= rx3_packets /sec > Ethtool(mlx5p2) stat: 1165854821 ( 1,165,854,821) <= rx_bytes /sec > Ethtool(mlx5p2) stat: 19430906 ( 19,430,906) <= rx_csum_good /sec > Ethtool(mlx5p2) stat: 19430906 ( 19,430,906) <= rx_packets /sec > Ethtool(mlx5p2) stat: 1165854821 ( 1,165,854,821) <= rx_unicast_bytes /sec > Ethtool(mlx5p2) stat: 19430906 ( 19,430,906) <= rx_unicast_packets > /sec was expecting to see tx_XXX stats, something wrong here? > pktgen (4 cores) sending ~50Mpps [...] The 20M for single ring/core and 50M pps for four streams are really cool results. Do the scripts to get ~such results exist in your network testing github repo? last time I looked I wasn't sure if the multi-stream case is supported. Could you post the two commands you used for these results along with minimal spec of the system (CPU type/freq, special .config directives, anything else)?
