#define LB_HAS_INLINE_BUCKETS (   _lb)    ((_lb)->lb_n_buckets <= LB_NUM_INLINE_BUCKETS)

Definition at line 198 of file load_balance.h.

#define LB_NUM_INLINE_BUCKETS   4

The number of buckets that a load-balance object can have and still fit in one cache-line.

The load-balance object represents an ECMP choice.

The buckets of a load balance object point to the sub-graph after the choice is made. THe load-balance object is also object type returned from a FIB table lookup. As such it needs to represent the case where there is only one coice. It may seem like overkill to use a load-balance object in this case, but the reason is for performance. If the load-balance object were not the result of the FIB lookup, then some other object would be. The case where there was ECMP this other object would need a load-balance as a parent and hence just add an unnecessary indirection.

It is also the object in the DP that represents a via-fib-entry in a recursive route. Load-balance main

One path from an [EU]CMP set that the client wants to add to a load-balance object.

The FIB DPO provieds;.

  • load-balancing over the next DPOs in the chain/graph
  • per-route counters
