Subject: [dpdk-dev] 10G Interface used as PCI Pass-Through reports 64bytes / packet
Date: Fri, 26 Jun 2015 16:56:18 +0000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <9478F0FB69DAA249AF0A9BDA1E6ED95218841F3C@US70TWXCHMBA07.zam.alcatel-lucent.com> (raw)
Hello,
Is it normal that a 10G NIC interface, supporting the 82599 Ethernet Controller, configured as PCI Pass-through for a virtual machine using DPDK, reports 64 bytes per packet; no matter what the packet size?
If so; I'm assuming this is to improve the performance of passing the network traffic to the VM. Is there a way to configure the NIC to properly present the proper byte count/packet?
Thanks in advance.
Best Regards,
Sami.
