Was there any progress made on DCB? We need a way to classify specific flows from the application and mark them with a priority. Not only do we need a bit of work on the driver, but also a way to tag frames all the way down to the driver. I imagine this would entail a socket option to mark a given flow and a mbuf flag to carry the request for priority classification to the driver. -Juan On Wed, Feb 6, 2013 at 5:53 AM, Randall Stewart <rrs@lakerest.net> wrote: > Lars/Jack: > > I am pretty sure that my company would be interested in it as well.. and I > can > help out here too ;-) > > Jack: are there particular versions of Intel cards that this needs to > be on (we have both igb and ix cards in my office now).. thanks. > > R > > > On Jan 22, 2013, at 10:43 AM, Eggert, Lars wrote: > > > Hi, > > > > on Linux, various NICs (e.g., ixgbe) support Data Center Bridging.
