Unrelated to the patch, has anyone noticed that mvneta's performance seems to have reduced? I've only just noticed it (which makes 2.5Gbps rather pointless). This is iperf between two clearfogs with a 2.5G fibre link:
root@clearfog21:~# iperf -V -c fe80::250:43ff:fe02:303%eno2 ------------------------------------------------------------ Client connecting to fe80::250:43ff:fe02:303%eno2, TCP port 5001 TCP window size: 43.8 KByte (default) ------------------------------------------------------------ [ 3] local fe80::250:43ff:fe21:203 port 48928 connected with fe80::250:43ff:fe02:303 port 5001 [ ID] Interval Transfer Bandwidth [ 3] 0.0-10.0 sec 553 MBytes 464 Mbits/sec
I checked with Jon Nettleton, and he confirms my recollection that mvneta on Armada 388 used to be able to fill a 2.5Gbps link.
If Armada 388 can't manage, then I suspect Armada XP will have worse performance being an earlier revision SoC.
