Fixes & Enhancements
Fixes: - Fixed a BSOD that occurred on servers with more than 64 cores as the Tx traffic did not honor the Tx affinity implied by the TSS, when the number of potential RSS CPUs was greater than 64. - Fixed a BSOD that occurred while installing WinOF v5.35 due to stack usage overrun. - Fixed an issue that could cause BSOD when resizing a number of Queue Pairs (QPs) in Virtual Multiple Machine Queue (VMMQ) mode, while running stress traffic to the VM - Removed the following redundant VM Event Log messages: 122, 104, 144 - Fixed a wrong Link State value in the VSTAT.
Enhancements: - DMN is a bus driver (mlx4_bus.sys) feature that generates dumps and traces from various components, including hardware, firmware and software, upon internally detected issues (by the resiliency sensors), user requests (mlxtool) or ND application requests via the extended Mellanox ND API. DMN is unsupported on VFs. - Added support for systems with up to 252 logical processors when Hyperthreading is enabled and up to 126 logical processors when Hyperthreading is disabled - Added support for RSC solution in TCP/IP traffic to reduce CPU overhead. - Added support for extended NDSPI to control CQ moderation. - Added a new counter for packets with no destination resource. - Added a new registry key that allows users to configure the E2E Congestion Control feature. - Added to the vlan_config tool the ability to create VLANs for the Physical Function (PF) in addition to the Virtual Function (VF) - Added support for collecting firmware MST dumps in cases of system bug check. - Added an event log message (ID 273) that is printed when the number of resources to load the VF is insufficient. - Added a counter for the number of packets discarded due to an invalid QP number. - Added DSCP based counters to support traffic where no VLAN/priority is present. - RoCE TTL default value has been changed from 128 to 16.
