-VPP Startup Settings
---------------------
-
-CSIT code manipulates a number of VPP settings in startup.conf for
-optimized performance. List of common settings applied to all tests and
-test dependent settings follows.
-
-See `VPP startup.conf`_ for a complete set and description of listed
-settings.
-
-Common Settings
-~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
-
-List of VPP startup.conf settings applied to all tests:
-
-#. heap-size <value> - set separately for ip4, ip6, stats, main
-   depending on scale tested.
-#. no-tx-checksum-offload - disables UDP / TCP TX checksum offload in
-   DPDK. Typically needed for use faster vector PMDs (together with
-   no-multi-seg).
-#. buffers-per-numa <value> - sets a number of memory buffers allocated
-   to VPP per CPU socket. VPP default is 16384. Needs to be increased for
-   scenarios with large number of interfaces and worker threads. To
-   accommodate for scale tests, CSIT is setting it to the maximum possible
-   value corresponding to the limit of DPDK memory mappings (currently
-   256). For Xeon Skylake platforms configured with 2MB hugepages and VPP
-   data-size and buffer-size defaults (2048B and 2496B respectively), this
-   results in value of 215040 (256 * 840 = 215040, 840 * 2496B buffers fit
-   in 2MB hugepage).
-
-Per Test Settings
-~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
-
-List of vpp startup.conf settings applied dynamically per test:
-
-#. corelist-workers <list_of_cores> - list of logical cores to run VPP
-   worker data plane threads. Depends on HyperThreading and core per
-   test configuration.
-#. num-rx-queues <value> - depends on a number of VPP threads and NIC
-   interfaces.
-#. no-multi-seg - disables multi-segment buffers in DPDK, improves
-   packet throughput, but disables Jumbo MTU support. Disabled for all
-   tests apart from the ones that require Jumbo 9000B frame support.
-#. UIO driver - depends on topology file definition.
-#. QAT VFs - depends on NRThreads, each thread = 1QAT VFs.
