   There are programs, yes. I used (rather old) netperf-2.2pl4 (I can send it to
you) running under perf (provided by the Poky rootfs). The details running netperf
on target are in the patch description #2; on host you just run netserver from that
same testsuite. The current netperf is maintained by HP on github but I was unable
to figure out how to build it quickly enough... :-)

   I have no idea, sorry.
