[Desktop-packages] [Bug 1853638] Re: BCM57416 NetXtreme-E Dual-Media 10G RDMA Ethernet device seems to be dropping data
Here is the Ettus benchmark tool https://kb.ettus.com/Verifying_the_Operation_of_the_USRP_Using_UHD_and_GNU_Radio You would need an Ettus device to run those tests. I cant test the affected node now as it is in production unfortunately. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to network-manager in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1853638 Title: BCM57416 NetXtreme-E Dual-Media 10G RDMA Ethernet device seems to be dropping data Status in linux package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Status in network-manager package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: The issue appears to be with the BCM57416 NetXtreme-E Dual-Media 10G RDMA Ethernet device seems to be dropping data Basically, we are dropping data, as you can see from the benchmark tool as follows: tcdforge@x310a:/usr/local/lib/lib/uhd/examples$ ./benchmark_rate --rx_rate 10e6 --tx_rate 10e6 --duration 300 [INFO] [UHD] linux; GNU C++ version 5.4.0 20160609; Boost_105800; UHD_3.14.1.1-0-g98c7c986 [WARNING] [UHD] Unable to set the thread priority.
