Thanks for the the info. Well we'll be forced to get into those problems when the HW is capable. I'll guess it will be w. the 10 GIGE cards. --ro

Huh. I've got a deja-vu feeling. What will happen if we remove almost all events (interrupts) and just have the timer waking up once-in-a-while? --ro

Dual Xeon 2.4GHz, a 82540EM and a 82541GI both on 32/66 on separate PCI buses. BEFORE performance is approx the same for both, ~620kpps. AFTER performance is ~730kpps, also approx the same for both.

Pretty graph attached. From ~220B packets or so it does wire speed, but there's still an odd drop in performance around 256B packets (which is also there without your patch.) From 350B packets or so,

Seems this is helping PCI nics but not PCI-X. I was using PCI 32/33. Can't explain the dip around 256B. Idea#1 Is the write of TDT causing interference with DMA transactions? In addition to my patch,

I double checked with the people that actually did the job. They indeed tested both cases, i.e., dropping packets either using IRQ (therefore using netif_rx()) or using NAPI (therefore using netif_r

Hello! Below is little patch to clean skb at xmit. It's old jungle trick Jamal and I used w. tulip. Note we can now even decrease the size of TX ring. It can increase TX performance from 800 kpps to

Robert, there is something weird with your setup with packets sizes under 160 bytes. Can you check if you also get wildly variable numbers on a baseline kernel perhaps? The numbers you sent me of pac

These are the best numbers reported so far, right? Did you try combining the two? You want to use E1000_DESC_UNUSED here because of the ring wrap. ;-) -scott

When extrapolating these numbers to the 0-byte packet case (which then tells you the per-packet overhead), I get the following approximate numbers: case overhead phi-32-33-82540-2.6.9 1.86 us phi-32-

Just a small unimportant note. This patch is pretty broken, I doubt you want to call e1000_clean_tx_ring(), I think you want some variant of e1000_clean_tx_irq() :) e1000_clean_tx_irq() takes adapter
