Re: [E1000-devel] ixgbevf: How to enable jumbo frame support for 82599 VF

2012-09-19 Thread Weirong Jiang
Thanks Alex. Here is my observation for my test: Before spawning the VFs, I can configure large MTU for the 82599 PFs. After spawning the VFs, I cannot configure large MTU for either the VFs or for the PFs. So it seems to me that the Jumbo frame support is disabled in the PF once it spawns VFs.

We are currently working on a software workaround. It requires changes to both the PF and VF in order to support it. The likely implementation will require enabling Jumbo frames on the PF in order to enable Jumbo frames on the VFs, and any legacy VFs will be disabled at that time. Thanks, Alex

It is not going to be fixed in 82599. There isn't any plan for a new rev of HW. The issue was solved in the next gen product. i.e., X-540. Best regards, Lior. -Original Message- From: Weirong Jiang [mailto:weirong.ji...@ericsson.com] Sent: Wednesday, September 19, 2012 9:42 PM To: Levy,

Hi Lior, Thanks for the info. So it is the limitation in 82599 HW. Does Intel have any roadmap to fix this? Thanks. Best, Weirong -Original Message- From: Levy, Lior [mailto:lior.l...@intel.com] Sent: Wednesday, September 19, 2012 1:40 AM To: Weirong Jiang Cc: e1000-devel@lists.sour

Hi Weirong, Jumbo frame is not supported on 82599 Virtual Function driver due to a HW limitation. It is supported only on X540 VF driver. Regards, Lior. -Original Message- From: Weirong Jiang [mailto:weirong.ji...@ericsson.com] Sent: Wednesday, September 19, 2012 3:39 AM To: e1000-dev
