+.. _handoff_queue_demo_plugin:
+
+Handoff queue in a plugin
+=========================
+
+This plugin provides a simplified example of how to hand off packets
+between threads. I used it to debug packet-tracer handoff tracing
+support.
+
+Packet generator input script
+-----------------------------
+
+::
+
+ packet-generator new {
+ name x
+ limit 5
+ size 128-128
+ interface local0
+ node handoffdemo-1
+ data {
+ incrementing 30
+ }
+ }
+
+Start vpp with 2 worker threads
+-------------------------------
+
+The demo plugin hands packets from worker 1 to worker 2.
+
+Enable tracing, and start the packet generator
+----------------------------------------------
+
+::
+
+ trace add pg-input 100
+ packet-generator enable
+
+Sample Run
+----------
+
+::
+
+ DBGvpp# ex /tmp/pg_input_script
+ DBGvpp# pa en
+ DBGvpp# sh err
+ Count Node Reason
+ 5 handoffdemo-1 packets handed off processed
+ 5 handoffdemo-2 completed packets
+ DBGvpp# show run
+ Thread 1 vpp_wk_0 (lcore 0)

+ Name State Calls Vectors Suspends Clocks Vectors/Call
