Dear all, I've received a patch from Shigeaki Tagashira. The patch enables MSI/MSIX capability on nVidia network adapters. I've slightly modified the patch and merged it into existing overhauled nfe(4). I guess the nfe(4) now supports almost all hardware capabilities including MSI/MSIX, IP/TCP/UDP checksum offload, TCP segmentation offload and hardware assisted VLAN processing. Shigeaki Tagashira tested only MSI due to lack of hardwares so there might be bugs in MSIX support code. I don't have nVidia hardwares that supports MSI/MSIX so I need user's feedback to improve it. If you have one of nVidia network adapters that have MSI/MSIX capability please give it spin and let me know how it goes on your system. Overhauled nfe(4) can be found at the following URL. http://people.freebsd.org/~yongari/nfe/WIP/if_nfe.c http://people.freebsd.org/~yongari/nfe/WIP/if_nfereg.h http://people.freebsd.org/~yongari/nfe/WIP/if_nfevar.h Thanks. -- Regards, Pyun YongHyeon
