.Sh NAME | ||
.Nm sume | ||
.Nd "NetFPGA SUME 4x10Gb Ethernet driver" | ||
.Sh SYNOPSIS | ||
To compile this driver into the kernel, place the following lines | ||
in your kernel configuration file: | ||
.Bd -ragged -offset indent | ||
.Cd "device sume" | ||
.Ed | ||
.Pp | ||
Alternatively, to load the driver as a module at boot time, place | ||
the following line in | ||
.Xr loader.conf 5 : | ||
.Bd -literal -offset indent | ||
if_sume_load="YES" | ||
.Ed | ||
.Sh DESCRIPTION | ||
The | ||
.Nm | ||
driver provides support for NetFPGA SUME Virtex-7 FPGA Development Board | ||
with the reference NIC bitstream loaded onto it. | ||
The HDL design for the reference NIC project uses the RIFFA based DMA | ||
engine to communicate with the host machine over PCIe. | ||
Every packet is transmitted to / from the board via a single DMA | ||
transaction, taking up to two or three interrupts per one transaction | ||
which yields low performance. | ||
.Pp | ||
There is no support for Jumbo frames as the hardware is capable of | ||
dealing only with frames with maximum size of 1514 bytes. | ||
The hardware does not support multicast filtering, provides no checksums, | ||
and offers no other offloading. | ||

.Sh AUTHORS | ||
The Linux | ||
.Nm | ||
driver was originally written by | ||
.An -nosplit | ||
.An Bjoern A. Zeeb . | ||
The | ||
.Fx version and this manual page were written by | ||
.An Denis Salopek | ||
as a GSoC project. | ||
More information about the project can be found here: | ||
.Pa https://wiki.freebsd.org/SummerOfCode2020Projects/NetFPGA_SUME_Driver | ||
.Sh BUGS | ||
The reference NIC hardware design provides no mechanism for quiescing | ||
inbound traffic from interfaces configured as DOWN. | ||
All packets from administratively disabled interfaces are transferred to | ||
main memory, leaving the driver with the task of dropping such packets, | ||
thus consuming PCI bandwidth, interrupts and CPU cycles in vain. | ||
.Pp | ||
Pre-built FPGA bitstream from the NetFPGA project may not work correctly. | ||
At higher RX packet rates, the newly incoming packets can overwrite the | ||
ones in an internal FIFO so the packets would arrive in main memory | ||
corrupted, until a physical reset of the board. | ||
.Pp | ||
Occasionally, the driver can get stuck in a non-IDLE TX state due to | ||
a missed interrupt. | ||
The driver includes a watchdog function which monitors for such a | ||
condition and resets the board automatically. | ||
