This Linux driver supports all Neterion's X3100 series 10 GbE PCIe I/O
|
||||
Virtualized Server adapters.
|
||||
|
||||
The X3100 series supports four modes of operation, configurable via
|
||||
firmware -
|
||||
Single function mode
|
||||
Multi function mode
|
||||
SRIOV mode
|

MRIOV mode

- Multi function mode

- SRIOV mode
|

- MRIOV mode
|
||||
|
||||
The functions share a 10GbE link and the pci-e bus, but hardly anything else
|
||||
inside the ASIC. Features like independent hw reset, statistics, bandwidth/
|
||||
priority allocation and guarantees, GRO, TSO, interrupt moderation etc are
