Sun 10-Gigabit Ethernet PCI-X Adapter Installation and User’s Guide • December 2005
In this example:
■
The first part within the double quotes specifies the hardware node name in
the device tree.
■
The number not enclosed in quotes is the instance number (shown in bold
italics).
■
The last part in double quotes is the driver name.
■
In the hardware node name, the last component after the last
/
character and
before the
@
character is the device name.
■
The path name before the last component is the parent name.
■
The number after the final
@
character within quotes is the unit-address.
To identify a PCI device unambiguously in the
ixge.conf
file, use the name, parent
name, and the unit-address for the device. Refer to the
pci
(4) man page for more
information about the PCI device specification.
2. Set the parameters for the above devices in the
/platform/sun4u/kernel/drv/ixge.conf
file.
In the following example, the
accept-jumbo
parameter is set to enable jumbo
frames for all Sun 10-Gigabit Ethernet devices. See the
driver.conf(4)
man page
for more information.
In the following example, the
accept-jumbo
parameter is set to enable jumbo
frames is set for a single instance of the Sun 10-Gigabit Ethernet device.
In this example:
■
parent
=
"/pci@8,600000"
■
unit-address
=
"0"
Note –
If you omit the
name=
,
parent=
, and
unit-address=
definitions, the
settings become global to all Sun 10-Gigabit Ethernet instances.
3. Save the
ixge.conf
file.
accept-jumbo=1;
name="pci8086,1048.108e.7036" parent="pci@8,600000" unit-address=
"0" accept-jumbo=1;
