- Stateful TCP offload drivers for Terminator 3 and 4 (T3 and T4) ASICs.
These are available as t3_tom and t4_tom modules that augment cxgb(4)
and cxgbe(4) respectively. The cxgb/cxgbe drivers continue to work as
usual with or without these extra features.
- iWARP driver for Terminator 3 ASIC (kernel verbs). T4 iWARP in the
works and will follow soon.
Build-tested with make universe.
30s overview
============
What interfaces support TCP offload? Look for TOE4 and/or TOE6 in the
capabilities of an interface:
# ifconfig -m | grep TOE
Enable/disable TCP offload on an interface (just like any other ifnet
capability):
# ifconfig cxgbe0 toe
# ifconfig cxgbe0 -toe
Which connections are offloaded? Look for toe4 and/or toe6 in the
output of netstat and sockstat:
# netstat -np tcp | grep toe
# sockstat -46c | grep toe

MFC after: ~3 months (after 9.1, and after ensuring MFC is feasible)
- add support for T3C
- add DDP support (zero-copy receive)
- fix TOE transmit of large requests
- fix shutdown so that sockets don't remain in CLOSING state indefinitely
- register listeners when an interface is brought up after tom is loaded
- fix setting of multicast filter
- enable link at device attach
- exit tick handler if shutdown is in progress
- add helper for logging TCB
- add sysctls for dumping transmit queues
- note that TOE wxill not be MFC'd until after 7.0 has been finalized
MFC after: 3 days
- fix the use after free seen when sending packets small enough to fit as an immediate
and bpf peers are present
- update to firmware rev 4.7 along with various small vendor fixes
