Subject: [PATCH] cxgb3: Set vlan_feature on net_device
Date: Fri, 27 Jul 2012 13:22:31 -0500 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1343413351-48710-1-git-send-email-brenohl@br.ibm.com> (raw)
cxgb3 interface has a bad performance when VLAN is set. On my current
setup, a PowerLinux 7R2, I am able to get around 7 Gbps on a TCP_STREAM
(8 instances, 4k message).
With this patch, I am able to reach 9.5 Gbps.
