Guys,

Oh, you want the main thread to process packets? Why didn’t you simply ask how 
to do that in the first place?

At worst, a few lines’ worth of code - to enable e.g. dpdk-input in thread-0 - 
might be required. Copying Damjan.

Thanks… Dave

Yes, I realize that, it could be work. Thanks to hongjun.

But vl_api_rpc_call_main_thread will degrade packet handling performance in 
worker thread, I don't know if there is a common and high performance way to do 
this?

And also  I guess vlib_process_signal_event can only be used in main thread? 
just my opinion, since I have not gone deep into the signal event code.

Hi Hui,

I think the SNAT example maybe meet what you want:

snat_in2out_node_fn_inline: (in worker thread)
     slow_path
        snat_ipfix_logging_nat44_ses_create
            vl_api_rpc_call_main_thread

Regards,
Hongjun

Maybe if you could expand on what it is you are trying to achieve?

//when starting worker thread ,  the main thread can't receive packet from IO, 
so we want to transfer some packet to main thread to continue processing.



Is it specifically to do with DHCP (and proxy) or is that just the code you 
found that looks like the kind of functionality you believe you need for your 
use-case?

// that just looks like our use-case. vlib_process_signal_event called in 
worker thread, and signal an event to the dhcp proccess node in main thread.

can  vlib_process_signal_event  do this?

hi Dave and hongjun:



We also got  confused with below code. Dos it works correctly?

Maybe the dhcp_proxy_to_client_input  fuction runs in the worker thread,  and 
it will call vlib_process_signal_event function to trigger dhcp-proccess node 
in the main thread.

If it works, maybe the question of mail title could be solved. But We can't 
find any other use like this until now.

dhcp_proxy_to_client_input

    dhcp_client_for_us

        vlib_process_signal_event (vm, dhcp_client_process_node.index,

                                 EVENT_DHCP_CLIENT_WAKEUP, c - dcm->clients);
