We continue to try to sort this out. Ignoring the errors for a moment, has
anyone else experienced the performance slowdown quoted below between two EMACs?
If not, could anyone with two AM3517-baed platforms with the EMACs exposed
please test this for us? We've run several tests between all the hardware we
have available, and all perform like this. Connecting an EMAC to another EMAC
and testing with iperf ("iperf -s" on one side, "iperf -c <IP>" on the other)
shows the performance drop vs. connecting the same EMAC to nearly any other
non-EMAC NIC and running the same test, even through the same infrastructure.
Our theory is that this could be a driver issue that when only 1 side has it,
performance is fine. However, if both sides have the same issue, as in the
case of EMAC to EMAC, the performance degrades significantly.
Thanks again for looking.
