NAME

6       queuelat - Queue latency test program
7

SYNOPSIS

9       queuelat  [-c|--cycles  N] [-f|--freq F] [-h|--help] [-m|--max-len LEN]
10       [-p|--packets F] [-q|--queue-len N] [-t|--timeout TIME]
11

DESCRIPTION

13       queuelat simulates a network queue checking for latency  violations  in
14       packet processing.

OPTIONS

18       A summary of options is included below.
19
20       -c, --cycles=N
21              Estimated  number of cycles it takes to process one packet. This
22              value should come from the envisioned packet forwarding applica‐
23              tion being simulated.
24
25       -f, --freq=F
26              TSC frequency in MHz.
27
28       -h, --help
29              Show help
30
31       -m, --max-len=N
32              Maximum  allowed  latency, in nanoseconds. If latency to process
33              any packet exceeds this value, the program quits, writing a mes‐
34              sage to the trace buffer.
35
36       -p, --packets=F
37              Million packets per second that arrive for processing.
38
39       -q, --queue-len=N
40              Minimum queue length to print in the trace
41
42       -t, --timeout=TIME
43              Timeout in seconds to quit the program.
