Re: HTB accuracy for high speed

[Antonio Almeida <vexwek@gmail.com>]

The analyser traffic is tcp. Setting tso off the accuracy stays the same

# ethtool -K eth0 tso off
# ethtool -K eth1 tso off

# ethtool -k eth0
Offload parameters for eth0:
rx-checksumming: on
tx-checksumming: on
scatter-gather: on
tcp segmentation offload: off
udp fragmentation offload: off
generic segmentation offload: off

# ethtool -k eth1
Offload parameters for eth1:
rx-checksumming: on
tx-checksumming: on
scatter-gather: on
tcp segmentation offload: off
udp fragmentation offload: off
generic segmentation offload: off

I'm applying the patches now. I'll get back to you.
