i218-LM code 10 after restart without cable

February 16, 2015, 5:36 am

I have a system using an Intel i218-LM ethernet controller:

  • Fully patched (as of 16th Feb 2015) Windows 8.1 64-bit
  • Intel driver PROWinx64.exe, Version:19.5, Date:28th Oct 2014.  Appears in Windows as driver v12.12.80.19 dated 29th Sept 2014.

 

Under normal operation the LAN works correctly.  I can disconnect and re-connect the LAN cable, and each time the LAN connection is re-established.

 

If I perform a system restart with the LAN cable connected, the LAN is established correctly once Windows boots.

 

However, if I perform a system restart without a LAN cable connected then I get a Code-10 error in Windows under Device-Manager for the i218-LM controller.  When I re-connect the LAN cable obviously the connection isn't re-established due to the Code-10 error.  If within Device-Manager I disable and then re-enable the i218-LM, the Code-10 error goes away, and the connection is correctly established.

 

Any ideas?

X540-T2 (ixgbe) poor performance over NFS or CIFS (1~2 Gbps)

Hi,

 

Can't reach more than 140 MB/s over NFS or CIFS.

I've tried everything: recompiled the latest driver from Intel (ixgbe-3.23.2.1), tweaked "/etc/sysctl.conf", set a bigger tmpfs on a ram drive. But nothing seems to work.

 

My NFS server is on Debian wheezy 3.2.65-1+deb7u2 x86_64, with 2 X540-T2, Intel(R) Xeon(R) CPU E5-2603 v3 Hexacore, SSD HDD 240 GB (O.S.) and Logic MegaRAID SAS-3 3108 with 4 disk on RAID10.

My 2 NFS clients are Centos 6.6 and Centos 7.1 with X540-T2.

 

What surprises me the most is that I have another scenario with the same version of Debian that works like 400MB/s with less powerful hardware: Server NFS Intel Corei3 and Client NFS Centos 6.6, both with Intel X520 (ixgb driver) interface.

 

Please helpppp!!!!

XL710 VF driver can reply to ARP request but cannot reply to ICMP's

We try to write a XL710 VF driver simply,and test it by using  ping command form PF to VF.

Now the VF driver can receive the ARP request and can reply it successfully, and the VF can also receive the ICMP request,and the reply data seems to put into the transmit buffer.

But in the PF, we cannot catch any reply data.

The ARP request can be reply that is to say the VF driver works normally, does it correctly? At least, it shows that the receive part and transmit part are correct.

Things that I want to know is what registers are relative to this issues, or any ideas about this issues?

 

Thanks & regards!

DPC Latency problems with Intel 82579LM based Network Controller on Windows 8

July 23, 2013, 8:05 pm

Hi,

 

After weeks of troubleshooting DPC latency problems on my Lenovo Thinkpad T420 laptop which were causing audio dropouts and mouse freezes every few mins I have finally tracked down the source of the issue. It appears that the Intel 82579LM based Network Controller driver may not be correctly optimised for Windows 8. I'm running Windows 8 Pro 64-bit and am using the latest Intel driver for the controller (12.6.45.0). In troubleshooting the issue I tried everything I could think of such as:

 

Update BIOS and all drivers to latest versions

Disable CPU and PCI Power Management in BIOS

Disabled onboard Sound (I use a separate professional audio sound card), Wifi, Bluetooth

Change power management settings to High Performance and Disabled USB selective suspend

Turn on all offloading settings on Ethernet NIC

Ran bcdedit /set disabledynamictick yes

Disabling Network Location Awareness in Windows

 

Nothing made any noticable difference at all. I had also been noticing that my network performance had been pretty poor intermittently on this machine for a while, occasionally experiencing dropouts and low download speeds (yes I know that can be caused by many other factors but please hear me out). Every few mins on the PC I would experience a DPC latency spike of around 95000us to 100000us which would occur right when the audio dropouts, mouse freezes, and probably network pauses would occur. I use the PC for audio production amongst other things so this causes me big issues.

 

I was totally baffled by the problem until I ran an xperf trace in the Windows Performance Toolkit and saw that the spike was being generated from ndis.sys and tcpip.sys. That got me thinking down the lines of a network related problem so I disabled the onboard Intel(R) 82579LM based Network Controller in Device Manager in Windows 8 and what do you know the problem disappeared competely!!  No more DPC latency spikes ever (tested for hours and many times). I can do pretty much whatever I like on the PC and the problem does not reoccur. Not one single audio dropout in my Audio DAW either. The onboard Wifi is still running (Intel Centrino Advanced-N 6205 - v15.8.0.5) providing me with network access and download speeds through the wireless nic are both much faster and more stable surprisingly (should be the other way around if anything). As soon as I re-enable the 82579LM NIC the problem is immediately back within a few mins.

 

I am desperate to get this fixed as I cannot use wireless all of the time. Intel can you please fix the 82579LM driver to make it fully compatible with Windows 8 Pro 64-bit. I'm sure many other people out there are having the same issue and just don't know the cause, or put up with it it as real time applications such as audio are less important to them. I have read about other people having these issues and it only appears to be with Windows 8. I think the drivers are fine for Windows 7, although I haven't confirmed this for sure.

 

Intel please consider patching the 82579LM NIC driver ASAP for full Windows 8 support. I can assist in providing you information if you require as I'm very keen to get this sorted.

 

Thanks,

Brad

Intel E10GSFPLR and Cisco SFP-10G-LRM Compatibility

April 2, 2015, 9:13 am

Hello,

 

 

I wonder if someone can help me with a seemingly simple but elusive question. I'm looking to

 

make a purchase of several Cisco SFP-10G-LRM modules to support 10Gb communications over our

 

OS2 fibre infrastructure. All runs are less than 300m so this is cost effective compared to

 

using SFP-10G-LR.

 

 

On the other end of the fibre will be some servers using Intel E10GSFPLR optics at 10Gb.

 

 

My question is this - are these optics compatible for the situation I've described? I've done

 

some searching and can't find any definite information either way, despite these being popular

 

choices (I guess).

 

 

Any help is appreciated.

 

Thanks,

 

Andrew

XL710 : why 4 receive packets be processed after 4 transmit packets be processed

When i rewrite XL710 VF driver in a polling mode(single process) by porting Linux kernel 3.17.6 i40evf codes, now the VF driver can ping successfully.

And there are problems as following:

1. after transmit be called 4 times that process 4 transmit  packets. (solved. we have fixed it to one transmit,one tx packet processing by delete the WB_STRIDE).

2. processing every 4 rx pakets only after every 4 tx packets processing happened. (not solved)

i don't kown what register makes the 4 receive packets be processed together. and is it relative to hardware only?

I look forward to reply about this issues.

 

Thanks & Best regards!

ixgbe 3.21.2 driver for 82599

We are trying to upgrade the NIC ixgbe driver to 3.21.2. I noticed that setting of unicast filtering table (ixgbe_set_uta) to all 1s has been removed. This breaks one of the features on the product. We have a VF that needs to be setup in L2 mode to do L2 switching in software and needs to be in promiscuous mode. It is setup / enabled with AUPE and ROPE bits in VMOLR.  I would like to know the implications if this is conditionally brought back that is set UTA table to 1s when the VF is configured in promiscuous mode (L2 mode) and clear it when VF is disable.  Also would like to understand reasoning behind removal of the setting of uta to all 1s.

Thanks in advance.

i40e sr-iov packets latency

Hi all,

Currently, I'm using XL710 SR-IOV in VM. We are using DPDK 1.8 PMD driver. The VM can communicate with other equipment, but the packets have long latency. you can refer below picture.

I don't know reason, it seemed rte_eth_rx_burst didn't return the packets it received in time.

Does anyone meet this problem before? or I just need to modify some macro in the code?

BTW: I have tried modify RTE_LIBRTE_I40E_ITR_INTERVAL and RTE_LIBRTE_I40E_QUEUE_NUM_PER_VF, and no effect.

Any answer will be appreciated!

Have the following hardware configuration:

Server 2xIntel Xeon E5-2680 v3 @ 2.50GHz

Six XL-710 adapters (Intel Corporation Ethernet Controller X710 for 10GbE SFP+)

CentOS 7 Linux, kernel 3.10.0-123.el7.x86_64

Driver version i40e-1.2.38.

 

Firmware of all six adapters has been updated to the latest version available from (https://downloadcenter.intel.com/download/24769)

Tool used for firmware update

After successful flashing (as reported by NVM update tool) one of the adapters stopped working.

EEPROM Image Version: 4.42 MAP2.66 (after update)

The failed card is visible under lspci, but i40e driver reports errors during device initialization:

[ 2682.320170] i40e 0000:03:00.0: Initial pf_reset failed: -15

Update utility refuses to re-update firmware for that device, reporting ‘access error’.


Updating NVM using `eeupdate64e` tool also failed.

For failed XL-710:

$> ./eeupdate64e /NIC=5 /EEPROMVER

...

Unable to initialize adapter 5 code c86a0a00

Admin Queue initialization failed

 

For normal XL-710:

i218-LM code 10 after restart without cable

February 16, 2015, 5:36 am

I have a system using an Intel i218-LM ethernet controller:

  • Fully patched (as of 16th Feb 2015) Windows 8.1 64-bit
  • Intel driver PROWinx64.exe, Version:19.5, Date:28th Oct 2014.  Appears in Windows as driver v12.12.80.19 dated 29th Sept 2014.

 

Under normal operation the LAN works correctly.  I can disconnect and re-connect the LAN cable, and each time the LAN connection is re-established.

 

If I perform a system restart with the LAN cable connected, the LAN is established correctly once Windows boots.

 

However, if I perform a system restart without a LAN cable connected then I get a Code-10 error in Windows under Device-Manager for the i218-LM controller.  When I re-connect the LAN cable obviously the connection isn't re-established due to the Code-10 error.  If within Device-Manager I disable and then re-enable the i218-LM, the Code-10 error goes away, and the connection is correctly established.

 

Any ideas?
