Title:
[chelsio]cxgb4:Very less throughput with more than 9 connections when
rate limit is applied
Status in linux package in Ubuntu:
Confirmed
Bug description:
2. Loaded cxgb4 driver (No t6-config.txt file) and brought up the
interfaces.
3. Assigned IP address to Port0.
# ifconfig ens6f4 102.10.10.3/24 up
4. Configured the traffic rate of 10 Gbps on queue 0 using the below
command.
# echo 10000 > /sys/class/net/ens6f4/queues/tx-0/tx_maxrate
5. Created a filter rule using tc flower to match traffic(destined to
IP 102.10.10.120) and bind it to a Tx Queue 0
# tc qdisc add dev ens6f4 root handle 1: multiq
# tc filter add dev ens6f4 parent 1: protocol ipv4 flower dst_ip
102.10.10.120 action skbedit queue_mapping 0
6. Traffic scenario,
On PEER : netserver -4
On TM machine :
1. Sent traffic using below command,
# rm -rf x ; for i in `seq 1 $N` ; do netperf -H 102.10.10.120 -l
30 >> x & done
Observation : I could see very less throughput for more than 9
connections( ~500 Mbps).
[root@buttercup ~]# tc -s filter show dev ens6f4
