I. Module loadable parameters.
When loaded as a module, the driver provides a host of Module loadable
parameters, so the device can be tuned as per the users needs.
A list of the Module params is given below.
(i) ring_num: This can be used to program the number of
receive rings used in the driver.
(ii) ring_len: This defines the number of descriptors each ring
can have. There can be a maximum of 8 rings.
(iii) frame_len: This is an array of size 8. Using this we can
set the maximum size of the received frame that can
be steered into the corrsponding receive ring.
(iv) fifo_num: This defines the number of Tx FIFOs thats used in
the driver.
(v) fifo_len: Each element defines the number of
Tx descriptors that can be associated with each
corresponding FIFO. There are a maximum of 8 FIFOs.
(vi) tx_prio: This is a bool, if module is loaded with a non-zero
value for tx_prio multi FIFO scheme is activated.
(vii) rx_prio: This is a bool, if module is loaded with a non-zero
value for tx_prio multi RING scheme is activated.
(viii) latency_timer: The value given against this param will be
loaded into the latency timer register in PCI Config
space, else the register is left with its reset value.

II. Performance tuning.
By changing a few sysctl parameters.
Copy the following lines into a file and run the following command,
"sysctl -p <file_name>"
### IPV4 specific settings
net.ipv4.tcp_timestamps = 0 # turns TCP timestamp support off, default 1, reduces CPU use
net.ipv4.tcp_sack = 0 # turn SACK support off, default on
# on systems with a VERY fast bus -> memory interface this is the big gainer
net.ipv4.tcp_rmem = 10000000 10000000 10000000 # sets min/default/max TCP read buffer, default 4096 87380 174760
net.ipv4.tcp_wmem = 10000000 10000000 10000000 # sets min/pressure/max TCP write buffer, default 4096 16384 131072
net.ipv4.tcp_mem = 10000000 10000000 10000000 # sets min/pressure/max TCP buffer space, default 31744 32256 32768

### CORE settings (mostly for socket and UDP effect)
net.core.rmem_max = 524287 # maximum receive socket buffer size, default 131071
net.core.wmem_max = 524287 # maximum send socket buffer size, default 131071
net.core.rmem_default = 524287 # default receive socket buffer size, default 65535
net.core.wmem_default = 524287 # default send socket buffer size, default 65535
net.core.optmem_max = 524287 # maximum amount of option memory buffers, default 10240
net.core.netdev_max_backlog = 300000 # number of unprocessed input packets before kernel starts dropping them, default 300

Release notes for Neterion's (Formerly S2io) Xframe I/II PCI-X 10GbE driver.

=======
- 1. Introduction
- 2. Identifying the adapter/interface
- 3. Features supported
- 4. Command line parameters
- 5. Performance suggestions
- 6. Available Downloads


1. Introduction:
This Linux driver supports Neterion's Xframe I PCI-X 1.0 and
Xframe II PCI-X 2.0 adapters. It supports several features
such as jumbo frames, MSI/MSI-X, checksum offloads, TSO, UFO and so on.
See below for complete list of features.
All features are supported for both IPv4 and IPv6.

2. Identifying the adapter/interface:
a. Insert the adapter(s) in your system.
b. Build and load driver
# insmod s2io.ko
c. View log messages
# dmesg | tail -40
You will see messages similar to:
eth3: Neterion Xframe I 10GbE adapter (rev 3), Version 2.0.9.1, Intr type INTA
eth4: Neterion Xframe II 10GbE adapter (rev 2), Version 2.0.9.1, Intr type INTA
eth4: Device is on 64 bit 133MHz PCIX(M1) bus

The above messages identify the adapter type(Xframe I/II), adapter revision,
driver version, interface name(eth3, eth4), Interrupt type(INTA, MSI, MSI-X).
In case of Xframe II, the PCI/PCI-X bus width and frequency are displayed
as well.

To associate an interface with a physical adapter use "ethtool -p <ethX>".
The corresponding adapter's LED will blink multiple times.

3. Features supported:
a. Jumbo frames. Xframe I/II supports MTU upto 9600 bytes,
modifiable using ifconfig command.

b. Offloads. Supports checksum offload(TCP/UDP/IP) on transmit
and receive, TSO.

c. Multi-buffer receive mode. Scattering of packet across multiple
buffers. Currently driver supports 2-buffer mode which yields
significant performance improvement on certain platforms(SGI Altix,
IBM xSeries).

d. MSI/MSI-X. Can be enabled on platforms which support this feature
(IA64, Xeon) resulting in noticeable performance improvement(upto 7%
on certain platforms).

e. NAPI. Compile-time option(CONFIG_S2IO_NAPI) for better Rx interrupt
moderation.

f. Statistics. Comprehensive MAC-level and software statistics displayed
using "ethtool -S" option.

g. Multi-FIFO/Ring. Supports up to 8 transmit queues and receive rings,
with multiple steering options.

4. Command line parameters
a. tx_fifo_num
Number of transmit queues
Valid range: 1-8
Default: 1

b. rx_ring_num
Number of receive rings
Valid range: 1-8
Default: 1

c. tx_fifo_len
Size of each transmit queue
Valid range: Total length of all queues should not exceed 8192
Default: 4096

d. rx_ring_sz
Size of each receive ring(in 4K blocks)
Valid range: Limited by memory on system
Default: 30

e. intr_type
Specifies interrupt type. Possible values 1(INTA), 2(MSI), 3(MSI-X)
Valid range: 1-3
Default: 1

5. Performance suggestions
General:
a. Set MTU to maximum(9000 for switch setup, 9600 in back-to-back configuration)
b. Set TCP windows size to optimal value.
For instance, for MTU=1500 a value of 210K has been observed to result in
good performance.
# sysctl -w net.ipv4.tcp_rmem="210000 210000 210000"
# sysctl -w net.ipv4.tcp_wmem="210000 210000 210000"
For MTU=9000, TCP window size of 10 MB is recommended.
# sysctl -w net.ipv4.tcp_rmem="10000000 10000000 10000000"
# sysctl -w net.ipv4.tcp_wmem="10000000 10000000 10000000"

Transmit performance:
a. By default, the driver respects BIOS settings for PCI bus parameters.
However, you may want to experiment with PCI bus parameters
max-split-transactions(MOST) and MMRBC (use setpci command).
A MOST value of 2 has been found optimal for Opterons and 3 for Itanium.
It could be different for your hardware.
Set MMRBC to 4K**.

For example you can set
For opteron
#setpci -d 17d5:* 62=1d
For Itanium
#setpci -d 17d5:* 62=3d

For detailed description of the PCI registers, please see Xframe User Guide.

b. Ensure Transmit Checksum offload is enabled. Use ethtool to set/verify this
parameter.
c. Turn on TSO(using "ethtool -K")
# ethtool -K <ethX> tso on

Receive performance:
a. By default, the driver respects BIOS settings for PCI bus parameters.
However, you may want to set PCI latency timer to 248.
#setpci -d 17d5:* LATENCY_TIMER=f8
For detailed description of the PCI registers, please see Xframe User Guide.
b. Use 2-buffer mode. This results in large performance boost on
on certain platforms(eg. SGI Altix, IBM xSeries).
c. Ensure Receive Checksum offload is enabled. Use "ethtool -K ethX" command to
set/verify this option.
d. Enable NAPI feature(in kernel configuration Device Drivers ---> Network
device support ---> Ethernet (10000 Mbit) ---> S2IO 10Gbe Xframe NIC) to
bring down CPU utilization.

** For AMD opteron platforms with 8131 chipset, MMRBC=1 and MOST=1 are
recommended as safe parameters.
For more information, please review the AMD8131 errata at
http://www.amd.com/us-en/assets/content_type/white_papers_and_tech_docs/26310.pdf
