Full TCP Offload?

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Hi guys.  I'm investigating the implementation of TCP Offload features in
our Network
Processor.

Have any of you had any experience with any product that does FULL TCP
offload?  I'm
not talking about Tx segmentation offload and Tx/Rx checksum offload, but
actual fully 
offloaded TCP?  

For example, at http://www.alacritech.com/html/1000x1_fiber_accelerator.html
they say
their card supports:

- TCP, IP, UDP checksum
- TCP segmentation and reassembly
- On-chip ACK processing
- On-chip slow-start processing

I've been looking through the 2.5.xx dev code, and see that it supports
checksumming
and transmit segmentation.   I've also found similar support in Windows
2000/XP (yes I
will likely have to support both.)  I've not found any discussion about
drivers/software support
for more than just csum and TSO offload, but maybe I have not looked hard
enough.

Thanks,
Jamie
