Subject: via-rhine -- VT6105M and checksum offloading
Date: Thu, 24 Feb 2011 13:58:05 -0500 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20110224185805.GI30393@kvack.org> (raw)
Hi folks,
I've recently noticed that one of the embedded systems I'm using (the
PCEngines ALIXes) is becoming CPU bound under heavy network traffic.
Upon investigation, it looks like the VT6105M isn't actually using the
hardware checksum offloading support of the hardware. Are there any
known reasons why this isn't enabled (hardware bugs?)? I'll test enabling
it in the driver, but I figured it would be worth asking if this path
has been explored already. Cheers,
-ben
