Subject: [PATCH] net/i40e: increase descriptor queue length to 8160
Date: Mon, 27 May 2024 19:19:21 +0300	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20240527161921.183866-1-igootorov@gmail.com> (raw)

According to the Intel X710/XXV710/XL710 Datasheet, the maximum receive
queue descriptor length is 0x1FE0 (8160 in base 10). This is specified
as QLEN in table 8-12, page 1083.

I've tested this change with an XXV710 NIC and it has positive effect on
performance under high load scenarios. Where previously I'd get
~2000 packets/sec miss rate, now I get only ~40 packets/sec miss rate.
