Hi,

Trying to find out why 82598 is dropping packets (rx_missed_errors)
while the cpus are only 30% utilized (using 8-queues), I realized
that DCA is disabled; that is (adapter->flags & IXGBE_FLAG_DCA_ENABLED)
is false while the kernel has been compiled with IXGBE_DCA and
INTEL_IOATDMA marked as builtins.

Inspecting the code showed that dca_add_requester() in ixgbe_probe()
fails with -ENODEV and in dca_add_requester(), dca_find_domain()
returns NULL.  I tried the card on HP DL380G6 and BL460cG6 with
the same result.  Is there something I'm missing?  Also could it
be related to packet drops?

Thanks,
Ali
