Subject: [oi-dev] flowcontrol 10Gbe intel x520
Hi all,I hope this is readable .
Using an OI 151a7
I'm trying to turn off flowcontroll on an Intel X520-DA2 10Gbe nicI have put
flow_control = 0; in /kernel/drv/ixgbe.conf and also done:dladm
set-linkprop -p flowctrl=no ixgbe0
results after reboot:
dladm show-ether -x ixgbe0
LINK PTYPE STATE AUTO SPEED-DUPLEX PAUSE
ixgbe1 current up yes 10G-f
bi-- capable -- yes 1G-f,100M-f
bi-- adv -- yes 1G-f
bi-- peeradv -- no --
none
==============================================================
dladm show-linkprop -p flowctrl ixgbe0
LINK PROPERTY PERM VALUE DEFAULT POSSIBLEixgbe0
flowctrl rw no no no,tx,rx,bi
===============================================================The second
output seems ok, but the first puzzles me. Als the dladm command doesn't show
any immediate effect, I think it doesn't work.
question on: can somebody clarify to me if flowcontrol is now turned off or
not? And if not, what do I have to do to turn it off?
I know that there were issues with the ixgbe driver in OI151a7, can this have
something todo with that? If this is solved in a9, how would I go about adding
the a9 driver to this a7 system (if thats's possible).
Greetings,
