Hi Pau,
Thanks for the help so far. I have tried using the kernel-gtp mode and
only managed to cause crashes in the omso-ggsn program. I have updated to
the latest git repository for the osmo-ggsn.
I followed the instructions here
https://osmocom.org/projects/openggsn/wiki/Kernel_GTP to load the kernel
gtp module and the 'lsmod | grep gtp' shows the same as the results in the
instructions.
After that the instructions mention using openggsn. I'm not sure if there
is further configuration required for the kernel gtp module - do I need to
create a tunnel? Or should this be done by osmo-ggsn as it did for the
gtpu-mode tun setting?

I have tried, without success, to find a sample config file with the
kernel-gtp mode in for osmo-ggsn. Is there a sample config file for
osmo-ggsn with the kernel-gtp mode selected?
This is my current config file - I have gone through various attempts with
different tun_device names.

Hi Dave,
I never personally used it, but as far as I know you should be able to get
more performance by using "gtpu-mode kernel-gtp" instead of "gtpu-mode
tun"
in your config, to avoid doing all packet processing in userspace. Please
someone else confirm this. I think you need a capable kernel and libgtpnl
to be able to use it.
Also, it would be nice if you could provide a linux "perf" output on
osmo-ggsn while running your test setup so we can spot possible
optimizations to improve osmo-ggsn performance.
