+``kxdpgun`` – DNS benchmarking tool
+===================================
+
+Synopsis
+--------
+
+:program:`kxdpgun` [*options*] **-i** *filename* *targetIP*
+
+Description
+-----------
+
+Powerful generator of DNS traffic, sending and receiving packets through XDP.
+
+Queries are generated according to a textual file which is read sequentially
+in a loop until a configured duration elapses. The order of queries is not
+guaranteed. Responses are received (unless disabled) and counted, but not
+checked against queries.
+
+The number of parallel threads is autodetected according to the number of queues
+configured for the network interface.
+
+Options
+.......
+
+**-t**, **--duration** *seconds*
+  Duration of traffic generation, specified as a decimal number in seconds
+  (default is 5.0).
+
+**-T**, **--tcp**\[\ **=**\ *debug_mode*\]
+  Send queries over TCP. See the list of optional debug modes below.
+
+**-U**, **--quic**\[\ **=**\ *debug_mode*\]
+  Send queries over QUIC. See the list of optional debug modes below.
+
+**-Q**, **--qps** *queries*
+  Number of queries-per-second (approximately) to be sent (default is 1000).
+  The program is not optimized for low speeds at which it may lose
+  communication packets. The recommended minimum speed is 2 packets per thread
+  (Rx/Tx queue).
+
+**-b**, **--batch** *size*
+  Send more queries in a batch. Improves QPS but may affect the counterpart's
+  packet loss (default is 10 for UDP and 1 for TCP/QUIC).
+
+**-r**, **--drop**
+  Drop incoming responses. Improves QPS, but disables response statistics.
+
+**-p**, **--port** *number*
+  Remote destination port (default is 53 for UDP/TCP, 853 for QUIC).
+
+**-F**, **--affinity** *cpu_spec*
+  CPU affinity for all threads specified in the format [<cpu_start>][s<cpu_step>],
+  where <cpu_start> is the CPU ID for the first thread and <cpu_step> is the
+  CPU ID increment for next thread (default is 0s1).
+
+**-i**, **--infile** *filename*
+  Path to a file with query templates.
+
+**-I**, **--interface** *interface*
+  Network interface for outgoing communication. This can be useful in situations
+  when the interfaces are in a bond for example.
+
+**-l**, **--local** *localIP*\ [**/**\ *prefix*]
+  Override the auto-detected source IP address. If an address range is specified
+  instead, various IPs from the range will be used for different queries uniformly
+  (address range not supported in the QUIC mode).
+
+*targetIP*
+  The IPv4 or IPv6 address of remote destination.
+
+**-L**, **--mac-local**
+  Override auto-detected local MAC address.
+
+**-R**, **--mac-remote**
+  Override auto-detected remote MAC address.
+
+**-v**, **--vlan** *id*
+  Add VLAN 802.1Q header with the given id. VLAN offloading should be disabled.
+
+**-h**, **--help**
+  Print the program help.
+
+**-V**, **--version**
+  Print the program version.
+
+Queries file format
+...................
+
+Each line describes a query in the form:
+
+*query_name* *query_type* [*flags*]
+
+Where *query_name* is a domain name to be queried, *query_type* is a record type
+name, and *flags* is a single character:
+
+**E** Send query with EDNS.
+
+**D** Request DNSSEC (EDNS + DO flag).
+
+TCP/QUIC debug modes
+....................
+
+**0**
+  Perform full handshake for all connections (QUIC only).
+
+**1**
+  Just send SYN (Initial) and receive SYN-ACK (Handshake).
+
+**2**
+  Perform TCP/QUIC handshake and don't send anything, allow close initiated by counterpart.
+
+**3**
+  Perform TCP/QUIC handshake and don't react further.
+
+**5**
+  Send incomplete query (N-1 bytes) and don't react further.
+
+**7**
+  Send query and don't ACK the response or anything further.
+
+**8**
+  Don't close the connection and ignore close by counterpart (TCP only).
+
+**9**
+  Operate normally except for not ACKing the final FIN+ACK (TCP only).
+
+Signals
+.......
+
+Sending USR1 signal to a running process triggers current statistics dump
+to the standard output.
+
+Notes
+-----
+
+Linux kernel 4.18+ is required.
+
+The utility has to be executed under root or with these capabilities:
+CAP_NET_RAW, CAP_NET_ADMIN, CAP_SYS_ADMIN, CAP_IPC_LOCK, and CAP_SYS_RESOURCE
+(Linux < 5.11).
+
+The utility allocates source UDP/TCP ports from the range 2000-65535.
+
+Exit values
+-----------
+
+Exit status of 0 means successful operation. Any other exit status indicates
+an error.
+
+Examples
+--------
+
+Manually created queries file::
+
+  abc6.example.com. AAAA
+  nxdomain.example.com. A
+  notzone. A
+  a.example.com. NS E
+  ab.example.com. A D
+  abcd.example.com. DS D
+
+Queries file generated from a zone file (Knot DNS format)::
+
+  cat ZONE_FILE | awk "{print \$1,\$3}" | grep -E "(NS|DS|A|AAAA|PTR|MX|SOA)$" | sort -u -R > queries.txt
+
+Basic usage::
+
+  # kxdpgun -i ~/queries.txt 2001:DB8::1
+
+*Using UDP with increased batch size*::
+
+  # kxdpgun -t 20 -Q 1000000 -i ~/queries.txt -b 20 -p 8853 192.0.2.1
+
+*Using TCP*::
+
+  # kxdpgun -t 20 -Q 100000 -i ~/queries.txt -T -p 8853 192.0.2.1
