I should also point out that the FLOWID control only exists in 8.X. Oh, and if there is no flow id, then TX uses the queue that is bound on the CPU it is running on of course :) Jack 2010/3/11 Jack Vogel > There is no user control, on the TX side there is a check of the FLOWID of > the packet

There is no user control, on the TX side there is a check of the FLOWID of the packet which it gets on RX, if there is one it uses that to determine the right TX queue to use. The TX side also has a flow control but this only exists on the 82599, not 598. The RX/TX queue pairs are bound to a cpu

I have typically not had the bandwidth to do performance work on the drivers, I am the only FreeBSD engineer in the wired network division here at Intel, however for 10G I have changed the rules and have been working to make the driver perform well. 10G is quite different from 1G, in order for it

Hello Jack, We're seeing iffy behavior with igb on FreeBSD 8.0-RELEASE on a new Intel server box (based on their S5520UR motherboard). So far we've seen only oddness with link-state (it wants to always say "active", with no cable plugged in, unless we do an ifconfig up/down/up), but I'm concerned

Hi, our Intel 10 GigE cards are finally here, identified as with the driver ixgbe-1.3.3 off the CD-ROM. One card is used for input, the other for output, doing traffic limiting (dummynet) and accounting in between. At data rates of about 700-1000 mbps netstat -i shows many Input errors on ix0 a

Hi Trying to understand something.. stf0 in FreeBSD has a non-changeable mtu of 1280. If you're setting up a 6to4-relay using FreeBSD doesn't this break stuff for other end-hosts using your relay? Linux for example has a default MTU of 1480. Sincerely, Sebastian H _
