These scripts can be executed +to run example apps without installing the library. Example apps +binaries can be found in *libs* folder. To run binaries directly, make +sure that libmemif library is installed. + +Run in container +---------------- + +``ligato/libmemif-sample-service`` image contains built and installed +libmemf.

Packets are handled in threads assigned to specific queues. Slave mode only. Memif receive mode: polling (memif_rx_poll function), interrupt (memif_rx_interrupt function). Receive modes differ per queue. |
