Hrrrrm. Almost every GigE card out there has it. And yes Marvell is
OEM'ing the card.
The only thing novel about Neptune is the unusually large number of
TX/RX dma engines - to better cater to sun4v and the fact that the
number of dma engines was made asymmetric to use up their transistor
budget. Neptune has 24/16 whereas cxgb only has 8/8. I don't know
about mxge and Oplin but I'm sure they're similar.
I don't recall where I heard it, but I'm pretty sure that the numbers
here (rx/tc) will be much larger in the next year or two on some
of the NICs that will be avialable.
