[PATCH 0/3] IB 64 bit counter support V2

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

 



V1->V2 Add detection of the capability for 64 bit counter support and lots
  of improvements as a result of suggestions by Hal Rosenstock.

Currently we only use 32 bits for the packet and byte counters. There have been
extended countes available for some time but we have no support for those
yet upstream. We keep having issues with 32 bit counters wrapping. Especially
the byte counter can wrap frequently (as in multiple times per minute)

This patch adds 4 new counters and updates 4 32 bit counters to use the
64 bit sizes so that they no longer wrap.

Should the device not support 64 bit counters then only the original 32
bit counters will be visible.
