[dpdk-dev] veth interfaces

[Zhu, Heqing]

Hi Ivano,

I think you can use the KNI, there is example/kni and doc. Please visit if you have not done it. Please keep us updated on your journey with Docker containers.  :-)

Hello,
I apologize for the imprecise email I sent, and now I try to be more specific about what I would like to do.

I have a module that receives traffic from the network using DPDK and, based on the packet content, should provide packets to the proper Docker container.
Docker containers receive packets through a veth interface.

Can I use DPDK features, in particular the KNI, to send packets on a veth interface?
If the KNI is not appropriate, is there something else that I could use?

Regards,

   Ivano
