qperf和iperf都是网络测试工具，可以测试带宽、延时情况。qperf默认在exadata上安装了，支持多种协议的测试，包括RDMA、SDP等。这个也是和iperf的主要区别。

Synopsis
qperf
qperf SERVERNODE [OPTIONS] TESTS
Description
qperf measures bandwidth and latency between two nodes. It can work
over TCP/IP as well as the RDMA transports. On one of the nodes, qperf
is typically run with no arguments designating it the server node. One
may then run qperf on a client node to obtain measurements such as
bandwidth, latency and cpu utilization.
In its most basic form, qperf is run on one node in server mode by
invoking it with no arguments. On the other node, it is run with two
arguments: the name of the server node followed by the name of the
test. A list of tests can be found in the section, TESTS. A variety
of options may also be specified.
One can get more detailed information on qperf by using the --help
option. Below are examples of using the --help option:

qperf选项[root@dm06dbadm01 ~]# qperf --help options
--access_recv OnOff (-ar)
If OnOff is non-zero, data is accessed once received. Otherwise,
data is ignored. By default, OnOff is 0. This can help to mimic
some applications.
-ar1
Cause received data to be accessed.
--alt_port Port (-ap)
Set alternate path port. This enables automatic path failover.
--loc_alt_port Port (-lap)
Set local alternate path port. This enables automatic path failover.
--rem_alt_port Port (-rap)
Set remote alternate path port. This enables automatic path failover.
--cpu_affinity PN (-ca)
Set cpu affinity to PN. CPUs are numbered sequentially from 0. If
PN is "any", any cpu is allowed otherwise the cpu is limited to the
one specified.
--loc_cpu_affinity PN (-lca)
Set local processor affinity to PN.
--rem_cpu_affinity PN (-rca)
Set remote processor affinity to PN.
--flip OnOff (-f)
If non-zero, cause sender and receiver to play opposite roles.
-f1
Cause sender and receiver to play opposite roles.
--help Topic (-h)
Print out information about Topic. To see the list of topics, type
qperf --help
--host Host (-H)
Run test between the current node and the qperf running on node Host.
This can also be specified as the first non-option argument.
--id Device:Port (-i)
Use RDMA Device and Port.
--loc_id Device:Port (-li)
Use local RDMA Device and Port.
--rem_id Device:Port (-ri)
Use remote RDMA Device and Port.
--listen_port Port (-lp)
Set the port we listen on to ListenPort. This must be set to the
same port on both the server and client machines. The default value
is 19765.
--loop Var:Init:Last:Incr (-oo)
Run a test multiple times sequencing through a series of values. Var
is the loop variable; Init is the initial value; Last is the value it
must not exceed and Incr is the increment. It is useful to set the
--verbose_used (-vu) option in conjunction with this option.
--msg_size Size (-m)
Set the message size to Size. The default value varies by test. It
is assumed that the value is specified in bytes however, a trailing
kib or K, mib or M, or gib or G indicates that the size is being
specified in kibibytes, mebibytes or gibibytes respectively while a
trailing kb or k, mb or m, or gb or g indicates kilobytes, megabytes
or gigabytes respectively.
--mtu_size Size (-mt)
Set the MTU size. Only relevant to the RDMA UC/RC tests. Units are
specified in the same manner as the --msg_size option.
--no_msgs N (-n)
Set test duration by number of messages sent instead of time.
--cq_poll OnOff (-cp)
Turn polling mode on or off. This is only relevant to the RDMA tests
and determines whether they poll or wait on the completion queues.
If OnOff is 0, they wait; otherwise they poll.
--loc_cq_poll OnOff (-lcp)
Locally turn polling mode on or off.
--rem_cq_poll OnOff (-rcp)
Remotely turn polling mode on or off.
-cp1
Turn polling mode on.
-lcp1
Turn local polling mode on.
-rcp1
Turn remote polling mode on.
--ip_port Port (-ip)
Use Port to run the socket tests. This is different from
--listen_port which is used for synchronization. This is only
relevant for the socket tests and refers to the TCP/UDP/SDP/RDS/SCTP
port that the test is run on.
--precision Digits (-e)
Set the number of significant digits that are used to report results.
--rd_atomic Max (-nr)
Set the number of in-flight operations that can be handled for a RDMA
read or atomic operation to Max. This is only relevant to the RDMA
Read and Atomic tests.
--loc_rd_atomic Max (-lnr)
Set local read/atomic count.
--rem_rd_atomic Max (-rnr)
Set remote read/atomic count.
--service_level SL (-sl)
Set RDMA service level to SL. This is only used by the RDMA tests.
The service level must be between 0 and 15. The default service
level is 0.
--loc_service_level SL (-lsl)
Set local service level.
--rem_service_level SL (-rsl)
Set remote service level.
--sock_buf_size Size (-sb)
Set the socket buffer size. This is only relevant to the socket
tests.
--loc_sock_buf_size Size (-lsb)
Set local socket buffer size.
--rem_sock_buf_size Size (-rsb)
Set remote socket buffer size.
--src_path_bits N (-sp)
Set source path bits. If the LMC is not zero, this will cause the
connection to use a LID with the low order LMC bits set to N.
--loc_src_path_bits N (-lsp)
Set local source path bits.
--rem_src_path_bits N (-rsp)
Set remote source path bits.
--static_rate Rate (-sr)
Force InfiniBand static rate. Rate can be one of: 2.5, 5, 10, 20,
30, 40, 60, 80, 120, 1xSDR (2.5 Gbps), 1xDDR (5 Gbps), 1xQDR (10
Gbps), 4xSDR (2.5 Gbps), 4xDDR (5 Gbps), 4xQDR (10 Gbps), 8xSDR (2.5
Gbps), 8xDDR (5 Gbps), 8xQDR (10 Gbps).
--loc_static_rate (-lsr)
Force local InfiniBand static rate
--rem_static_rate (-rsr)
Force remote InfiniBand static rate
--time Time (-t)
Set test duration to Time. Specified in seconds however a trailing
m, h or d indicates that the time is specified in minutes, hours or
days respectively.
--timeout Time (-to)
Set timeout to Time. This is the timeout used for various things
such as exchanging messages. The default is 5 seconds.
--loc_timeout Time (-lto)
Set local timeout to Time. This may be used on the server to set
the timeout when initially exchanging data with each client.
However, as soon as we receive the client's parameters, the client's
remote timeout will override this parameter.
--rem_timeout Time (-rto)
Set remote timeout to Time.
--unify_nodes (-un)
Unify the nodes. Describe them in terms of local and remote rather
than send and receive.
--unify_units (-uu)
Unify the units that results are shown in. Uses the lowest common
denominator. Helpful for scripts.
--use_bits_per_sec (-ub)
Use bits/sec rather than bytes/sec when displaying networking speed.
--use_cm OnOff (-cm)
Use the RDMA Connection Manager (CM) if OnOff is non-zero. It is
necessary to use the CM for iWARP devices. The default is to
establish the connection without using the CM. This only works for
the tests that use the RC transport.
-cm1
Use RDMA Connection Manager.
--verbose (-v)
Provide more detailed output. Turns on -vc, -vs, -vt and -vu.
--verbose_conf (-vc)
Provide information on configuration.
--verbose_stat (-vs)
Provide information on statistics.
--verbose_time (-vt)
Provide information on timing.
--verbose_used (-vu)

--verbose_more_time (-vvt)
Provide more information on timing.
--verbose_more_used (-vvu)
Provide more information on parameters used.
--version (-V)

--wait_server Time (-ws)
If the server is not ready, continue to try connecting for Time
seconds before giving up. The default is 5 seconds.
