Do you use polling with this > adapters or just standard interrupt-based mode? Why? In if_em.c, em_rxeof() is used both in legacy polling and in fast-interrupts / MSIX interrupts modes. I have the same problem of many Ierrs on input on em0 at a load of 500-600 mbps, and increasing rx_processing_limit (or setting it to -1) doesn't help at all. em0: Receive No Buffers = 4442943 em0: RX overruns = 83367 Next thing I'll try will be hw.em.rxd=4096. I don't think polling would help as it is not the interrupt load causing the drops (as evidenced by top -HS), but rather insufficiently large input buffers. -- This message was sent on behalf of rihad@mail.ru at openSubscriber.com http://www.opensubscriber.com/message/freebsd-stable@freebsd.org/12647494.html
