    摘要: One embodiment provides a method for enabling class-based credit flow control for a network node in communication with a link partner using an Ethernet communications protocol. The method includes receiving a control frame from the link partner. The control frame includes at least one field for specifying credit for at least one traffic class and the credit is based on available space in a receive buffer associated with the at least one traffic class. The method further includes sending data packets to the link partner based on the credit, the data packets associated with the at least one traffic class.

    摘要: Generally, this disclosure relates to adaptive interrupt moderation. A method may include determining, by a host device, a number of connections between the host device and one or more link partners based, at least in part, on a connection identifier associated with each connection; determining, by the host device, a new interrupt rate based at least in part on a number of connections; updating, by the host device, an interrupt moderation timer with a value related to the new interrupt rate; and configuring the interrupt moderation timer to allow interrupts to occur at the new interrupt rate.

    摘要: An embodiment may include circuitry that may be capable of selecting, from network devices, at least one network device to which at least one packet is to be transmitted. The network devices may be associated, at least in part, with each other in at least one link aggregation. The circuitry may select the at least one network device based at least in part upon a relative degree of affinity that the at least one network device may have with respect to at least one central processing unit (CPU) socket that may be associated, at least in part, with at least one flow to which the at least one packet may belong. The relative degree of affinity may be relative to respective degrees of affinity that one or more others of the network devices may have with respect to the at least one CPU socket. Many modifications are possible.
