The next day, Bruce Allen, a Linux kernel developer and Intel engineer, announced a "patch [which] is meant to prevent all future corruptions of the e1000e NVM (non volatile memory) after the
Dec 05, 2012 · e1000e - The NVM Checksum Is Not Valid With the recent version of Linux kernel (just a guess) you may discover that your Intel 825** network card (e1000e) is not working anymore and dmesg is displaying an annoying message like this: modprobe e1000e InterruptThrottleRate=16000,16000. In this case, there are two network ports supported by e1000e in the system. The default value for each parameter is generally the recommended setting, unless otherwise noted. NOTE: A descriptor describes a data buffer and attributes related to the data buffer. With the emulated E1000/E1000E the kernel has to mimic the exact behavior of existing adapters to the guest but with the VMXNET3 it could create a “perfect” virtual adapter optimized to be used in a virtual environment. In part 2 of this article we will see how really large the performance difference actually is. Typically Linux versions 2.4.19 and later, Windows XP Professional x64 Edition and later, and Windows Server 2003 (32-bit) and later include the E1000 driver. On the other hand, we’ve got VMXNET3 virtual NIC, which is a completely virtualized 10 GB NIC with drivers and network processing are integrated with the ESXi hypervisor.
Feb 04, 2017 · The E1000E driver doesn’t have any bells or whistles to flip on or off, but they could be supported. Stability? No clue, I’ve used the e1000e driver before on an add-in-card ( EXPI9301CT , 8086:10d3 ) and never had any issues, but that’s par for the course these days in Linux and the cheap r8619 are practically as solid.
Jun 17, 2015 · This guide was created as an overview of the Linux Operating System, geared toward new users as an exploration tour and getting started guide, with exercises at the end of each chapter. For more advanced trainees it can be a desktop reference, and a collection of the base knowledge needed to proceed with system and network administration.
Aug 23, 2019 · The e1000e Linux base driver supports the 2.4.x, 2.6.x, and 3.x kernels, and includes support for Itanium® 2-based systems. It is only supported as a loadable module. Intel is not supplying patches against the kernel source to allow for static linking of the drivers.

LibE1000 is a user-space library for Intel Gigabit Ethernet adapters. It implements an "OS bypass" mechanism, where fast path processing and rx/tx data transfers are performed without kernel assistance (i.e. no system calls).
