+
+ <body>
+ <p>A new driver, <tt>cxgbei</tt>, that enables hardware
+ accelerated iSCSI with Chelsio's T5- and T4-based offload-capable
+ cards, has been committed to HEAD. Both Initiator and Target are
+ supported. The wire traffic is standard iSCSI (SCSI over TCP as
+ per RFC 3720, etc.) so an Initiator/Target using this driver will
+ interoperate with all other standards-compliant
+ implementations.</p>
+
+ <p>Hardware assistance provided by the T5 and T4 ASICs includes:</p>
+
+ <ul>
+ <li>Complete TCP processing.</li>
+
+ <li>iSCSI PDU identification and extraction from the byte
+ oriented TCP stream.</li>
+
+ <li>Header and/or data digest generation and
+ verification.</li>
+
+ <li>Zero copy support for both transmit and receive.</li>
+ </ul>

+ <p>The driver is in advanced stage QA and will see some
+ bugfixes and performance enhancements in the very near future.
+ MFC is possible as soon as the QA cycle completes.</p>
