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.</p> -<p class="Pp">There is no support for Jumbo frames as the hardware is capable of - dealing only with frames with maximum size of 1514 bytes.

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.</p> -<p class="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.</p> -<p class="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.
