I'm running an Intel 82598EB 10G AF DA on a Dell PowerEdge 1950 (Xeon
5430 + 5000X chipset). To enable DCA on my machine, I enabled I/OAT in
BIOS and applied the patch(http://patchwork.kernel.org/patch/15273/)
to the I/OAT driver. I confirmed that ixgbe_setup_dca() (in ixgbe
2.0.34.3) is done succe

Also, with the slower cpu you're likely hurting your throughput with the high

64-bit slots - I have a combination of MT and XT boards have tried MT -
MT, XT - XT and MT - XT, also RTL8111 to both MT and XT cards. I get
identical results in all combinations.

The problem has been solved.
1. If the traffic is generated through raw sockets, then both packet
constructing code for ethX as well as the ethX interrupt are assigned
to the same processor.
2. I discovered this by:
- looking on htop, /proc/interrupts and then proper entries in /proc/irq
3. When I

Hi, Jesse
I have solved the issue. The problem is PBA setting.
In the original driver, TXA is set to zero, which works for pci, but not
pcie.
Now my 82572EI card works well.
Thanks.

I also tried the pktgen driver, and it works very well too, just as
the raw sockets approach. The problem is therefore with my driver. I'm
looking on pktgen code and my driver code, and the differences are:
1. The pktgen driver is selecting queues.. I can't say anything more
about the code, becaus
