I know some people on XDP-hints list that could have used this kind of
TSN test-bench in the past.

Hello RT-list!

I'm pleased to announce the TSN-Testbench.

The TSN-Testbench is a real time networking simulation (PROFINET RT/TSN,
OPC/UA, ...)  and validation tool for Linux with PREEMPT_RT focused on
strict cyclic workloads. It leverages modern Linux networking
technologies such as XDP, XDP/ZC and busy polling in combination with
precise time synchronization and scheduled traffic.

It generates RT and non-RT traffic, mirrors traffic, performs
consistency checks and latency measurements. In a broader sense think of
`cyclictest' over the network.

It has been tested and used on NIC(s) such as i210, i225/i226 and stmmac.

You can get the code and documentation via the git tree at:

Thanks,
Kurt
