Perhaps I'm missing something.. Doesn't nxge support multiple TX rings? If so, does the existing serialization serialize all traffic to a single ring, or is mac_tx_serializer_mode() applied after mac_tx_fanout_mode()? I had thought the original nxge serializer serialized each TX ring separately in nxge. The fork I made of it for myri10ge certainly works that way. Drew
