Revision 2360abcc (diff)

Fix #9647.

Instead of forcing the defaults in the OS driver (introducing yet another
change), set the default to enable ALTQ support for hnX NICs in loader.conf.

Fix the repeated entries in loader.conf.

Revision 14d2f872 (diff)
Added by Luiz Souza 9 months ago

Add a system option to handle the queue API usage in hn NICs.

A single queue is used in order to enable the ALTQ support, but some people may
prefer performance over the ALTQ features.

See previous issue #8954 where this was fixed for 2.4.4

Hi,
are there any plans to correct this behaviour?
Is this possibly resolved in next freebsd release?

Thanks!

#4 Updated by Dee D about 1 year ago

still an issue on the latest builds...

#5 Updated by Greg M 11 months ago

Hello.

Can someone please take a look at this one?
It seems trivial to fix or am I wrong?

So I tried with: pfSense-CE-2.5.0-DEVELOPMENT-amd64-20200618-1024

Still same message about ALTQ support. Is this change baked into version I`ve tested?

Thanks!

It should be. I also tested the most recent snapshot from this morning and altq did not work there, either.

#12 Updated by Greg M 10 months ago

I tried with todays snapshot and have the same issue.
What can we do next?

#13 Updated by Greg M 9 months ago

Hi!

Is there anything else to try?

#14 Updated by Greg M 9 months ago

So I did some more digging...

Added /boot/loader.conf.local with contents:

hw.hn.vf_transparent="0" 
hw.hn.use_if_start="1"

And now shaper works just like on 2.4.5

It works.
But did few reboots and there are MANY same settings added to loader.conf

Additional syntax error occurs, created redmine for that too.

#17 Updated by Greg M 9 months ago

And some more info...

This does NOT work:

kern.cam.boot_delay=10000
kern.ipc.nmbclusters="1000000"
kern.ipc.nmbjumbop="524288"
kern.ipc.nmbjumbo9="524288"
kern.geom.label.disk_ident.enable="0"
kern.geom.label.gptid.enable="0"
opensolaris_load="YES"
zfs_load="YES"
autoboot_delay="3"
hw.usb.no_pf="1"
vm.pmap.pti="0"
net.pf.request_maxcount="400000"
hw.hn.vf_transparent=0
hw.hn.use_if_start=1

But this DOES work:

kern.cam.boot_delay=10000
kern.ipc.nmbclusters="1000000"
kern.ipc.nmbjumbop="524288"
kern.ipc.nmbjumbo9="524288"
kern.geom.label.disk_ident.enable="0"
kern.geom.label.gptid.enable="0"
opensolaris_load="YES"
zfs_load="YES"
hw.hn.vf_transparent=0
hw.hn.use_if_start=1
autoboot_delay="3"
hw.usb.no_pf="1"
vm.pmap.pti="0"
net.pf.request_maxcount="400000"

So order matters I guess.

#18 Updated by Greg M 9 months ago

After 2 reboots file looks like this:

kern.cam.boot_delay=10000
kern.ipc.nmbclusters="1000000" 
kern.ipc.nmbjumbop="524288" 
kern.ipc.nmbjumbo9="524288" 
kern.geom.label.disk_ident.enable="0" 
kern.geom.label.gptid.enable="0" 
opensolaris_load="YES" 
zfs_load="YES" 
hw.hn.vf_transparent=0
hw.hn.use_if_start=1
hw.hn.vf_transparent=0
hw.hn.use_if_start=1
hw.hn.vf_transparent=0
hw.hn.use_if_start=1
autoboot_delay="3" 
hw.usb.no_pf="1" 
vm.pmap.pti="0" 
net.pf.request_maxcount="400000" 
hw.hn.vf_transparent=0
hw.hn.use_if_start=1

I guess it keeps adding those 2 lines.

#19 Updated by Luiz Souza 9 months ago

Sorry for the breakage, should be fixed now.

I couldn't reproduce the order issue, please let me know if this is still an issue.

#20 Updated by Greg M 9 months ago

Gitsynced, deleted all entries rebooted twice and it works.

Thanks.
