From: Helin Zhang <helin.zhang@intel.com> To: dev@dpdk.org Subject: [dpdk-dev] [PATCH] i40e: workaround for XL710 performance Date: Wed, 24 Dec 2014 15:14:08 +0800 Message-ID: <1419405248-14158-1-git-send-email-helin.zhang@intel.com> (raw) on XL710, performance number is far from the expectation on recent firmware versions, if promiscuous mode is disabled, or promiscuous mode is enabled and port MAC address is equal to the packet destination MAC address. The fix for this issue may not be integrated in the following firmware version. So the workaround in software driver is needed. It needs to modify the initial values of 2 internal only registers which is the same 2 of 3 registers of it did for X710. Note that the workaround can be removed when it is fixed in firmware in the future.
