2010-06-11pktgen: increasing transmission granularityDaniel Turull
This patch increases the granularity of the rate generated by pktgen. The previous version of pktgen uses micro seconds (udelay) resolution when it was delayed causing gaps in the rates. It is changed to nanosecond (ndelay). Now any rate is possible. Also it allows to set, the desired rate in Mb/s or packets per second. The documentation has been updated.

2009-10-04pktgen: Fix multiqueue handlingEric Dumazet
It is not currently possible to instruct pktgen to use one selected tx queue. When Robert added multiqueue support in commit 45b270f8, he added an interval (queue_map_min, queue_map_max), and his code doesnt take into account the case of min = max, to select one tx queue exactly. I suspect a high performance setup on a eight txqueue device wants to use exactly eight cpus, and assign one tx queue to each sender. This patchs makes pktgen select the right tx queue, not the first one. Also updates Documentation to reflect Robert changes.

Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history, even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about 3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good infrastructure for it. Let it rip!
