ConnectX-5 and later HW generations will report min inline mode == MLX5_INLINE_MODE_NONE, which means driver is not required to copy packet headers to inline fields of TX WQE. When inline is not required, vlan insertion will be handled in the TX descriptor rather than copy to inline. For LSO case driver is still required to copy headers, for the HW to duplicate on wire. This will improve CPU utilization and boost TX performance. Tested with pktgen burst single flow: CPU: Intel(R) Xeon(R) CPU E5-2680 v3 @ 2.50GHz HCA: Mellanox Technologies MT28800 Family [ConnectX-5 Ex] Before: 15.1Mpps After: 17.2Mpps Improvement: 14% Signed-off-by: Saeed Mahameed <saeedm@mellanox.com> Reviewed-by: Tariq Toukan <tariqt@mellanox.com> |

README
Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
