-Introduction
-------------
-
-This application allows writing files to an x86 host from a TILEncore-Gx
-PCIe card. The file name and data are sent over PCIe using the Tilera
-Packet Queue API from an aplication running on the Tilera processor.
-
-The original purpose is to write log files from Suricata (Intrusion
-Dectection System) on the x86 host's file system.
-
-Running The Logger
-------------------
-
-To run the application, set the TILERA_ROOT environment variable to
-point to a valide Tilera MDE, then do:
-
- make run
-
-The application should be started before the application on the Tile
-side that will be generating the log data.
-
-By default, queue number 0 is used. The --queue_index=N command line
-argument can be used to change the queue number.
-
-If more than one TILEncore-Gx PCIe card is installed, the --card=M
-argument changes to listening to card M.
-
-Caveats
--------
-
-Due to the fact that the host driver allocates 4MB physically
-contiguous memory for the packet queue ring buffer, it is possible
-that this allocation could fail on a host whose memory has been
-considerably fragmented. If the host program exits with the following
-error, reboot the host and run the test again.
-
-Host: Failed to open '/dev/tilegxpci%d/packet_queue/t2h/0': Cannot
-allocate memory
