Hello, With OpenBSD 5.3, our firewall does not handle our network load well. We loose around 5% of packets and netstat shows a lot of Ierr.
That worked much better with 5.1. There was a change to not enable MSI on 82572 chipset on our Intel card ( "Intel PRO/1000 QP (82571EB)" rev 0x06) in 5.2 : http://freshbsd.org/commit/openbsd/a47ca448720823019bc6c618bf178a47fd1af73a My question is: could it be the cause of our load problem ? 5.1: em0 at pci5 dev 0 function 0 "Intel PRO/1000 QP (82571EB)" rev 0x06: msi, address 00:15:17:ed:98:9d em1 at pci5 dev 0 function 1 "Intel PRO/1000 QP (82571EB)" rev 0x06: msi, address 00:15:17:ed:98:9c em2 at pci6 dev 0 function 0 "Intel PRO/1000 QP (82571EB)" rev 0x06: msi, address 00:15:17:ed:98:9f em3 at pci6 dev 0 function 1 "Intel PRO/1000 QP (82571EB)" rev 0x06: msi, address 00:15:17:ed:98:9e 5.3 (on another box with the same hardware): em0 at pci5 dev 0 function 0 "Intel PRO/1000 QP (82571EB)" rev 0x06: apic 1 int 13, address 00:15:17:ed:98:65 em1 at pci5 dev 0 function 1 "Intel PRO/1000 QP (82571EB)" rev 0x06: apic 1 int 6, address 00:15:17:ed:98:64 em2 at pci6 dev 0 function 0 "Intel PRO/1000 QP (82571EB)" rev 0x06: apic 1 int 15, address 00:15:17:ed:98:67 em3 at pci6 dev 0 function 1 "Intel PRO/1000 QP (82571EB)" rev 0x06: apic 1 int 13, address 00:15:17:ed:98:66 We don't have any problem with this card, how can we re-enable MSI (without reverting this change)? Thanks, regards.
