Hello Alex,
I updated firmware in NIC and it didn't make any changes. Current
firmware version is "firmware-version: 5.05 0x800028a6 1.1568.0".
I tried bisect this issue with new firmware and successfully found
first bad commit. Log from bisecting is pasted in the end. For testing
of kernel builds I used clear distribution install of RHEL7 and turn
of irqbalance. Test run between 2 servers with same HW an SW
configuration. NIC was put into different IPv4 subnet to avoid
undesirable communication.
testing command : netperf -L 192.168.0.1 -H 192.168.0.2 -T 0,0 -t
TCP_STREAM -l 30 -- -m 4096

47994c119a36e28e1779efabc92d6ab5329a6f75 is the first bad commit

i40e: remove hw_disabled_flags in favor of using separate flag bits
The hw_disabled_flags field was added as a way of signifying that
a feature was automatically or temporarily disabled. However, we
actually only use this for FDir features. Replace its use with new
_AUTO_DISABLED flags instead. This is more readable, because you
aren't
setting an *_ENABLED flag to *disable* the feature.
Additionally, clean up a few areas where we used these bits. First,
we
don't really need to set the auto-disable flag for ATR if we're
fully
disabling the feature via ethtool.
Second, we should always clear the auto-disable bits in case they
somehow
got set when the feature was disabled. However, avoid displaying
a message that we've re-enabled the feature.
Third, we shouldn't be re-enabling ATR in the SB ntuple add flow,
because it might have been disabled due to space constraints.
Instead,
we should just wait for the fdir_check_and_reenable to be called by
the
watchdog.
Overall, this change allows us to simplify some code by removing an
extra field we didn't need, and the result should make it more
clear as
to what we're actually doing with these flags.
