Updated: October 28, 2024

Driver for Intel 10Gb Ethernet devices

Syntax:

io-sock -d ixgbe [option[,option...]]

mount -T io-sock [-o option[,option...]] ixgbe

Runs on:

QNX Neutrino

Options:

Use commas, not spaces, to separate the options.
prefix=prefix
Specifies the instance of io-sock that mounts this driver. You specify the prefix that creates an alternative stack when you start io-sock. Used only when you load a driver with mount after starting io-sock.
qnxdev=device
When Plug & Play is disabled, specifies the device instance to use. Use devinfo -v to determine the location value to use (e.g., qnxdev=pci0:0:25:0).

Description:

The devs-ixgbe.so driver is ported from FreeBSD to provide support for Intel 10Gb Ethernet devices. Its interface names are in the form ix#, where # is an integer of one or more digits.

For information on starting io-sock with a driver or loading a driver later using mount, see “Starting io-sock and Driver Management.” Unlike the FreeBSD version, you cannot load devs-ixgbe.so using a configuration file or by using loader.config.

For more information, see the FreeBSD documentation: https://www.freebsd.org/cgi/man.cgi?query=ixgbe&sektion=4&manpath=FreeBSD+13.0-RELEASE+and+Ports
