ESX ENIC Driver Updates

Native ENIC driver versions 1.0.X.0 are for ESXi 6.5 and later releases.

Native ENIC Version 1.0.16.0

This driver update addresses the following issues:

• CSCvg19544: The native ENIC driver on ESXi 6.5 and 6.5U1 no longer sends frames greater than the MTU size.

• CSCvf71646: ESXi 6.5 and 6.5U1 vDS CoS marking is now passed through.

• CSCvh18317: VXLAN traffic is now re-established after running the command "vsish -e set /net/pNics/vmnic1/reset 1".

Native ENIC Version 1.0.11.0

This driver update addresses the following issues:

• CSCvf36545: This fix addresses the issue of a length mismatch between the VMWare packet frame length API function and the sum of the individual fragment length in cases of a single fragment. With this native ENIC driver, it now properly handles such packets.

• CSCvf74299: Under a heavy load cycle of loading and unloading the native ENIC drivers, a VMkernel warning was generated.

• CSCvf07421: In ESX 6.5, the VMNIC intermittently goes down during heavy traffic while the driver is unloaded.

• CSCve95688: In ESX 6.5, when the host VMNIC is shutdown, the MAC address is not always deleted.

Native ENIC Version 1.0.6.0

This driver update addresses the following issues:

• CSCve19544: Netqueues were not evenly populated across CPUs with ESX 6.5.

• CSCve05002: Unable to configure more than 2 VNICs with a 4096 WQ/RQ buffer size.

• CSCve09123: On ESXi 6.5, a native ENIC driver reload with parameters followed by MTU change can lead to a crash.

• CSCve34158: When RSS is enabled, the "queues supported" list value in vsish command does not return a value of 1.

ENIC Version 2.3.0.14

ENIC driver versions 2.3.0.X are for ESXi releases before ESXi 6.5.

• This driver update addresses a fail over issue on NIC teaming with ESX 6.0.

ESX FNIC Driver Updates

FNIC Version 1.6.0.33 and up

• CSCux64473: This driver update now supports Virtual Volume Support for ESXi.

• This driver update supports up to ESXi 6.5.

• An abort timeout no longer causes multiple abort retries for ESXi.

• Fixed the issue of slow I/O path fail over in the case of an I/O aborted with FCPIO_TIMEOUT. The Fnic driver did not return the I/O to ESX, causing the ESX mid-layer to retry abort continuously with the same behavior until finally freeing the I/O after some retries resulting in slow I/O path failover.

• CSCvb20147: Fixed an issue where an "out of order case" occurred when the IO completed which could cause an HBA reset.

• This driver update enhances IO statistics by adding time statistics for IO completions.

Linux ENIC Driver Updates

ENIC Version 2.3.0.43

• This driver update increased the size of devname to accommodate a 15 character netdev interface name and description.

• Added support for RHEL 7.4.

ENIC Version 2.3.0.40

• This driver update addresses an issue where after installing VIC drivers for SuSE 12.1, the new driver version doesn't appear after a reboot.

ENIC Version 2.3.0.39

• This driver update adds supports for VXLAN with Receive Side-Scaling (RSS) stateless offload on VIC adapters 1340, 1380, 1385, 1387, and SIOC on Cisco UCS C3260 for RHEL 7.0, Centos 7.0, SLES 12 SP2 and above releases. VXLAN offload is not supported for IPv6.

ENIC Version 2.3.0.35

• This driver update adds support for RHEL 7.3.

• CSCuz73711: This driver update contains missing instructions for the Ubuntu driver in the README.

ENIC Version 2.3.0.31

• This driver update adds support for Ubuntu 16.04.2.

Linux FNIC Driver Updates

FNIC Version 1.6.0.36

• Added support for displaying the timestamp in FNIC debugging statistics.

• CSCve27915: This driver update fixes incorrect reporting of vHBA speeds for FNIC drivers 1.5.0.45 in RHEL 7.4.

• FC Control Path Tracing

  • Adds check_condition accounting and output to fnic stats.

  • Changes the IO time take bucket to include more buckets at higher granularity

  • Added current max_io_time to indicated the max time take by an io so far (if >30 sec)

FNIC Version 1.6.0.31

• This driver update adds support for RHEL 7.3.

• CSCvc11335: This driver update adds support for SLES 12 SP2.

• CSCva90513: This driver enhances IO stats by adding stats for time taken for IO completions.

• CSCvb20147: Fixed an issue where an "out of order case" occurred when the IO completed which could cause an HBA reset.
