## In the VPP there is one main thread and optionally the user can create worker(s)
## The main thread and worker thread(s) can be pinned to CPU core(s) manually or automatically
## Manual pinning of thread(s) to CPU core(s)
## Set logical CPU core where main thread runs
# main-core 1
## Set logical CPU core(s) where worker threads are running
# corelist-workers 2-3,18-19
## Automatic pinning of thread(s) to CPU core(s)
## Sets number of CPU core(s) to be skipped (1 ... N-1)
## Skipped CPU core(s) are not used for pinning main thread and working thread(s).
## The main thread is automatically pinned to the first available CPU core and worker(s)
## are pinned to next free CPU core(s) after core assigned to main thread
# skip-cores 4
## Specify a number of workers to be created
## Workers are pinned to N consecutive CPU cores while skipping "skip-cores" CPU core(s)
## and main thread's CPU core
# workers 2
## Set scheduling policy and priority of main and worker threads
## Scheduling policy options are: other (SCHED_OTHER), batch (SCHED_BATCH)
## idle (SCHED_IDLE), fifo (SCHED_FIFO), rr (SCHED_RR)
# scheduler-policy fifo
## Scheduling priority is used only for "real-time policies (fifo and rr),
## and has to be in the range of priorities supported for a particular policy
# scheduler-priority 50

# dpdk {
## Change default settings for all intefaces
# dev default {
## Number of receive queues, enables RSS
## Default is 1
# num-rx-queues 3
## Number of transmit queues, Default is equal
## to number of worker threads or 1 if no workers treads
# num-tx-queues 3
## Number of descriptors in transmit and receive rings
## increasing or reducing number can impact performance
## Default is 1024 for both rx and tx
# num-rx-desc 512
# num-tx-desc 512
## VLAN strip offload mode for interface
## Default is off
# vlan-strip-offload on
# }
## Whitelist specific interface by specifying PCI address
# dev 0000:02:00.0
## Whitelist specific interface by specifying PCI address and in
## addition specify custom parameters for this interface
# dev 0000:02:00.1 {
# num-rx-queues 2
# }
## Change UIO driver used by VPP, Options are: igb_uio, vfio-pci
## and uio_pci_generic (default)
# uio-driver vfio-pci
## Disable mutli-segment buffers, improves performance but
## disables Jumbo MTU support
# no-multi-seg
## Increase number of buffers allocated, needed only in scenarios with
## large number of interfaces and worker threads. Value is per CPU socket.
## Default is 16384
# num-mbufs 128000
## Change hugepages allocation per-socket, needed only if there is need for
## larger number of mbufs. Default is 256M on each detected CPU socket
# socket-mem 2048,2048
