where could find intel i211-at ethernet linux driver ? (02:00.0 Class 0200: Device 8086:1532 (rev 03))

igb-5.3.5.3.tar.gz does not include support intel i211-at device

i need porting it to intel braswell android 5.1.1

 

Thanks.

Accessing hardware timestamps with SR-IOV

$

0

Hi,

 

I was wondering if it is possible to get access to hardware timestamping on the NIC if you using SR-IOV virtualization.

 

Currently in a non-virtualized environment, I can configure HW timestamping by passing hwtstamp_config structure to ioctl().  However, when I do the same operation in a Xen based VM which uses SR-IOV (and Intel 82599 NIC) the same operation failed (I am getting Operation not supported message after calling ioctl()).

 

Reading the documentation on SR-IOV I couldn't figure out if accessing HW timestamps on a NIC is fundamentally not possible, or I just missing some configuration (such as Virtual Function for NIC).

 

Thank you

poor network performance when using X520-DA2

I´ve got a problem with a server connection using the following combination:

 

IBM Server SystemX 3450 Typ:7379-K4G (PCIE x8 slot, 25w), running Windows Server2008R2

Intel Network Adapter X520-DA2

Intel TwinAxial Cable 3m (XDACBL3M)

D-Link switch DGS-1510-52


Problem:

10Gbit Link is up, but the performance is like 10Mbit. Gigabit connection with the internal adapter is much faster!

Even when i try to open the management gui of the adapter it takes several seconds to open and everything seems to be very slow.

As i don´t use them i tried to disable the IPv6 but this didn´t have any effect.


Any ideas?


Thank you in advance! :-)

best regards

Hi,

 

I have 6 identical systems with X710-DA4. 4 came with NVM 4.42 and could be upgraded to 5.04 without Problems. 2 have 4.53 and when trying to update, I get: Device not found. Is there a way to downgrade to 4.42 first so I could install 5.04?

Intel 82574L Broken - Win 2012 R2

$

0

The Intel drivers, PROSet, Advanced Network Service, Powershell Module, and Intel SNMP agent are *not* functioning whatsoever in Windows 2012 R2. I've tried an install on multiple machines using the latest 18.7 driver set and a after a clean install of Windows. I am able to get connectivity with limited features, using the built-in Microsoft ver. 12.6.47.1 March, 28, 2013 drivers. The error message at install states "Cannot install drivers. No Intel(R) Adapters are present in this computer." My adapter is built onto the motherboard and resides at PCI bus 4 and 5. To troubleshoot this, I did verify the Windows Device Manager Service was started. I also checked the release notes in several previous releases to see if there are any possible work arounds. No luck. While I realize R2 was just released to the public this past month, it was in beta for quite some time. I hope a fix can be found. The Intel 82574L integrated network adapter is found on *almost* every server grade system I've ever worked on. Whether a supermicro, intel, or asus motherboard - this chip is certainly always present. This is a serious problem for Windows 2012 R2 users. I did not have the same issue on the non-R2 version.

Packet Loss after Windows Updates

Hi *.

 

after recent Windows Updates, I experience about 20% packet loss of all network connection through a Windows Server 2008 R2 Hyper-V vm running on a Windows Server 2016 TP5 host. Were there any changes to the Intel drivers recently?

I am using Gigabyte H170-H3DP motherboard with i5-6500 cpu, when the computer woke up from sleep, the intel 1219-V(2) ethernet card did't work, and changed to 10Mbps, could not receive any packet,until the next restart of the OS.

Using Win10 (Version1511) X64 with the latest update and Intel Network Adapter Driver V21.0 installed.

I tried to disable the power saving of the ethernet card, however it didn't work.

XL710-QDA2: TCP rx_crc_errors

$

We already got working card with same chip (Selecom) and decided to purchase another one - but Intel branded XL710-QDA2.

After deploying and upgrading firmware and driver to the latests versions, we found that 40gbit/s link is up and icmp (pings) packets go perfectly, but there is no ability to set up any TCP connection.

Ethtool shows a lot of rx_crc_errors on this interface.

We've tested it with two brand new Intel cables and got the same result.

 

What can be reason of this?

Hi all,

 

Currently, We have an Application Server running Window Server 2008 R2

It has been installed on Primergy RX300S7

And we are facing an error on this application.

Application vendor has checked and they doubts the cause may relate to an Event in Event Viewer as below

 

[Event Information]

 

Event ID: 7045

Source: Service Control Manager

Service name: NAL Service

Service File Name: C:\Windows\system32\Drivers\iqvw64e.sys

Currently, Our System is using 2 network cards Intel 82576NS and it has been teaming together

Please help me answer some questions and request

 

1. Why does this Nal services run every 2 hours in event viewer?

2. Can I stop it and how I can?

3. Does this service affect to our system?

I210 lost firmware

$

Hi,

 

my Supermicro X10SRL-F has two onboard I210 NICs. Two days ago, after having it passed one through to a PFSense VM with KVM, they now show up under Linux as

 

07:00.0 Ethernet controller: Intel Corporation Device 1531 (rev 03)

08:00.0 Ethernet controller: Intel Corporation I210 Gigabit Network  Connection (rev 03)

 

Only the second one is detected, the first one is missing in the BIOS, too. I've had the problem before and solved it by re-flashing the firmware which was provided by Supermicro support. I'm not certain about the circumstances back then, but it's possible that it was related to pass-through, too. However, it does not seem to be easily reproducible as the same setting has worked flawlessly several times before. Before trying to re-flash the firmware as advised by Supermicro, I'd like to ask if

 

- this is a known problem (I couldn't really find related reports) and if yes how it can be avoided

- you could use a firmware dump to get an idea of the problem / cause

 

Of course, any other helpful information is appreciated! The NIC was running with firmware Rev 1.24 (05/21/2013), they've sent me Rev. 1.27A (8/27/2015) to test.

 

With regards

Send manageability commands through SMBus without BMC

$
0
0

Hello,

 

I bought a two-port Intel I350 NIC (vendor says "Generic i350-t2 V2"), and I wish to enable its critical session feature (also known as veto bit, keep PHY link up, and manageability session). However, it is not in a classic server installation, but rather in a simple desktop computer - I have my reasons for this, namely to be able to put the computer in suspend-to-RAM sleep state - which means there is no BMC as far as I know.

 

From the datasheet, I understand the BMC would send through SMBus a specific command to enable this feature. What I'd want is to send this command from the Linux kernel instead. As of now, I see two SMBus devices in '/dev', which are identified as "igb BB", so I guess they correspond to the two ports of the card, but I have not been able to send the command to either device. As a matter of fact, I cannot detect any slave on each device (using command i2cdetect). My try program results in an error, which code from errno is "ENXIO (6): no such device or address" when I send the command. Opening the device and setting the slave address to 0x49 "works" (in the sense it gives me no error).

 

So Tl;Dr: I want to send a manageability command through SMBus (or NC-SI if it'd work) without BMC, but rather from my Linux kernel or user-space. Is that even possible? If yes, how do I enable the NIC slave device?

 

Thanks for your help

Intel X550-T2 Card not compatible to HP 1950-24G-2SFP+-2XGT-PoE+ Switch

Hi,i have the following issue. i am using a workstation equipped with Intel X550-T2 card and connected both 10Gbase-T ports with a cat7 cable to switch-port 27/28. switch-port 27/28 are also 10Gbase-T capable.

only one port on the intel card will connect at full speed (10Gbps). the second port will run with 1Gbps. I tried these things:

- build up a lan-team on workstation-side in windows server 2012

- forced card- and switch-ports to 10Gbase

- build a aggregation with both switch-ports

nothing really helped. is there a compatibility problem between card and switch ?

i tried also to active and deactivate stp. i dont understand why only one port run with full speed.

i got a supermicro-mainboard based server in my office as well, two intel x550 onboard ports and the same problem occur. one port is at full speed the second port is at 100Mbps.

Hello, I would like to know if there is documentation which would state how to increase the buffer settings for this card on Windows 7 and Windows 10 workstations.  We are looking to find the high and low limits.

RSS mode in FM10K

Hi, everyone

 

I'm testing our FM10K board with DPDK.

 

I want to run testpmd example with RSS option enabled.

 

The command used in the test is as follows :

 

./testpmd -c 0x00fe00fe -n 4 -- -i --portmask=0x3 --nb-cores=8 --numa --rxq=2 --txq=2

 

But, I found that all packets were gathered in just 1 queue, and the hash values of Rx BD  in all packets were 0.

 

Could you let me know what's wrong in my RSS option?

 

 

As far as I know, the RSS in fm10k is enabled by default.

 

I made sure that hash function was IPv4 and TcpIpv4 and MRQC was set, the intel key was set as secret key (40bytes),

 

and reta was set by default.

 

We did not modified the sour code and used it as default.

 

Thanks in avance.

 

 

Regards,

Intel network driver/connection???

I am running a Vista machine and wanting to update to Windows 7.

 

The Upgrade Listed my Intel network driver as follows:

Intel(R) 82566DC Gigabit Network Connection     Action Recommended: Before installing Windows 7, go to the device manufacturer's website to download the latest driver for this device. After installing Windows 7, install the saved driver.

 

I came across the Intel Driver Update Utility so I downloaded, installed and ran it. Please see screenshot for results.

I clicked on Download, but when it got to the end my next option appeared to be only to install (no save option) and since the recommendation was to install the latest driver AFTER installing Windows 7, I just aborted.

 

Then I went to the actual driver download center and typed in the Intel(R) 82566DC Gigabit Network Connection and the answer came back

There are currently no downloads available for Intel 82566DC Gigabit Network Connection

 

I am lost when it comes to things like drivers and normally don't mess with them so this has got me totally confused. I'm hoping someone will help me out because I better get things straight before I try to do an in-place upgrade of my Vista to Windows 7.


(I had no idea what to put in the box below that calls for place so I winged it.
