RHEL Engineering is moving the tracking of its product development work on RHEL 6 through RHEL 9 to Red Hat Jira (issues.redhat.com). If you're a Red Hat customer, please continue to file support cases via the Red Hat customer portal. If you're not, please head to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira and file new tickets here. Individual Bugzilla bugs in the statuses "NEW", "ASSIGNED", and "POST" are being migrated throughout September 2023. Bugs of Red Hat partners with an assigned Engineering Partner Manager (EPM) are migrated in late September as per pre-agreed dates. Bugs against components "kernel", "kernel-rt", and "kpatch" are only migrated if still in "NEW" or "ASSIGNED". If you cannot log in to RH Jira, please consult article #7032570. That failing, please send an e-mail to the RH Jira admins at rh-issues@redhat.com to troubleshoot your issue as a user management inquiry. The email creates a ServiceNow ticket with Red Hat. Individual Bugzilla bugs that are migrated will be moved to status "CLOSED", resolution "MIGRATED", and set with "MigratedToJIRA" in "Keywords". The link to the successor Jira issue will be found under "Links", have a little "two-footprint" icon next to it, and direct you to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira (issue links are of type "https://issues.redhat.com/browse/RHEL-XXXX", where "X" is a digit). This same link will be available in a blue banner at the top of the page informing you that that bug has been migrated.

Description Dmitry Fleytman 2013-08-19 08:29:23 UTC
There is an RSS extension called "Send Side Scaling":

From http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/hh997036.aspx:
Send Side Scaling: The RSS hash value is passed by the TCP/IP protocol to the network interface card in each packet on the egress path thus allowing for the send completions to be indicated on the same CPU. This enables better scaling on the send side.

While it is not a mandatory feature it may have positive performance impact.
Needs to be investigated and (probably) implemented.

Comment 4 Yvugenfi@redhat.com 2014-06-22 09:09:29 UTC
Will be implemented as part of the multi-queue support in Windows driver.
