The Linux Kernel protocol stack is getting more and more additions as time goes by. As new technologies arise, more functions are implemented and might result is a certain amount of bloat. However new methods have been added to the kernel to circumvent common throughput issues and to maximize overall performances, given certain circumstances. To assess the ability of the kernel to produce packets at a given rate, we will use the pktgen tool. Pktgen is a loadable kernel module dedicated to trac generation based on UDP. Its philosophy was to be in a low position in the kernel protocol stack to minimize the amount of overhead caused by usual APIs. As measurements are usually done in packets per second instead of bandwidth, the UDP protocol mak...
