Is this synced against Build 81 ?
Also when is the next beta expected ?

creating a vnic to represent the factory MAC address
How do I create a vnic that represents the factory assigned MAC
address of my physical nic?
The bge device in my system (x2100) appears to support 4 MAC
addresses. The driver reserves the first as the ''primary/default''
address and allows manipulation of the other three via the
MAC_CAPAB_MULTIADDRESS interface.
I''d like to use vnics on this system, as I have Xen guest

questions from a 10GbE driver author
Hi,
I maintain a driver for a 10GbE nic which supports multiple hardware tx/rx rings. We can steer rx packets into rings using the "standard" NDIS6 Toeplitz hashing on TCP port numbers, IP addresses, etc. We can also steer packets based on MAC address. Would this NIC be considered to be capable of supporting crossbow?
Also, can crossbow do things like steer outgoing packets to the

questions about tx rings...
I''ve been thinking about hardware that has multiple transmit rings ("tx
resources").
We really should have a way to expose this up to the stack. And
ideally, the stack should guarantee that a given flow will always be
sent down using the same hardware tx resource.
I''ve heard that crossbow will deliver this, but I can''t find evidence of
it in the crossbow

Hwo to disable the polling function of mac_srs
In crossbow, each mac_srs has a kernel thread called "mac_rx_srs_poll_ring"
to poll the hardware and crossbow will wakeup this thread to poll packets
from the hardware automatically. Does crossbow provide any method to disable
the polling mechanism, for example disabling the this kernel thread?
Thanks

ALOM woes
Hi.
After running with the crossbow bits for a while, I discovered that the network
management port on my T1000 wasn''t working properly (no link light). When
logging in on the serial management port and running "resetsc", I got this:

mac_srs_rx_poll_ring thread never stop polling hardware in kernel

no syscalls and no interrupts.

Crossbow and zones
Howdy,
I just finished reading through the Crossbow presentation:
http://blogs.sun.com/sunay/resource/crossbow.pdf
And have one question. If you create a virtual NIC with dladm:
$ dladm create-vnic -d bge0 -m 0:1:2:3:4:5 -b 10000 1
Can you then add vnic1 directly to the zone? e.g.:
zonecfg -z zone1
zonecfg:zone1> create
zonecfg:zone1> set zonepath=/zones/zone1
zonecfg:zone1> add net

Reclaiming transmit descriptors by NIC drivers with Crossbow new scheduling
The following is mainly a capture of parts of multiple off-line
discussions within members of the Crossbow team
(Gopi, Thiru, Roamer, May-Lin, Thirumailai, Nitin, KB, ...), I thought
I''d open it up to other participants.
Crossbow''s core scheduling involves switching a NIC (or individual Rx
rings on the NIC) to polling mode.
The receive interrupt will become not only rarer,

[Fwd: [networking-discuss] code-review: fine-grained privileges for datalink administration]
Crossbow team,
The following is of interest to the Crossbow project. Since a large
chunk of these changes also exist in the Crossbow gate, the delivery of
this wad will result in fewer lines of changes for Crossbow''s delivery.
If someone on Crossbow could participate in this review, that would be a
bonus (Eric Cheng made original changes in the Crossbow gate at some
point last year).

property parsing in dladm
I decided to take a stab at
6601421 dladm set-linkprop should support multiple -p options
along with some related linkprop fixes, but when I looked into
dladm.c, was surprised to find that "dladm_parse_props()" is called
from do_create_aggr and do_create_vlan in addition to the
expected (by me, at least) do_create_vnic *linkprop functions.
What happened here? Why do we pass in

Crossbow Architecture approved at PSARC commitment review
Smooth review. The case was approved unanimously by the members present.
This is the summary of actions:
. Advice to the team to follow on issue djr-02, clarifying the rationale
for -p vs -a.
. TCR - Add a format specifier (e.g. -F gnuplot) to show-usage
. Two spec updates:
- EOF of the VLAN PPA hack removal
- Clarify mac_intr_t
. Opinion fodder about the extensibility of the

virtual switch with more than one phyical nic?
Hi. Can a virtual switch have more than one physical NIC?
Or, can a VNIC have more than one NIC? (this is the same
question, I think)?

objects disappear from dladm after reboot
On OpenSolaris 2009.06 I created a flow, half a dozen VNICs, and I set some properties, and everything was working, then I rebooted my system and everything disappeared from show-vnic, show-flow, and show-prop. When I tried to re-create the objects, dladm said they already existed. While I could not see the objects, I could delete them. Example:
# dladm show-vnic
# dladm create-vnic -l bge0

Controlling outbound bandwidth utilization by port
Among other things, I run an http server on my home DSL line
(6M/768kbit). The content includes several large image
galleries, and when certain crawlers hit our server w/
multiple large image uploads, we end up with large
ping time delays - sufficient to disrupt the kids''

trouble with maxbw
Folks,
I''m playing with maxbw on links (as opposed to flows) in Crossbow, and I
have a couple of questions. First, the limts seem only advisory. The first
example has the main host talking to a zone that has 172.16.17.100
configured on znic0. When there is no maxbw, the throughtput is
as expected; when maxbw is 55M the throughput only drops to 76 Mbps:

maxbw minimum
The minimum is set at 1200Kbits/second. However, in testing, if I set
that for a VNIC, the domU gets no traffic at all (maybe the occassional
packet). Is the minimum too low?
If I set a maximum of 2000Kbits/second, I get this from nicstat
(expecting around 250Kbytes/s total:
