NDIS 6.5 offload checksum test failure - HCK NDIS 6.5 not accepting packet checksum

We are developing NDIS 6.x miniport driver and are running NDIS Test 6.5 and are encountering failures in Offload Checksum when Rx checksum offload is enabled. The failures are as below indicating that the notified packets are not accepted by HCK test ,
even though it receives the packets .  We have validated that the checksum is correct by recalculating it in driver and also through wireshark captures on the receiving and send sides. 
We hereafter refer to the test adapter as Test10GCard and the support adapter as Support10GCard.
To eliminate the issue, we also have swapped the role of the Test10GCard and Support10GCard . In this case, the Test10GCard became the support adapter and Support10Gcard as the "card under test".  In this case, the test failed in send itself,
as the packet notified by Test10Gcard to the stack , even when checksum offload is disabled was not accepted.
 We have looked at NET_BUFFER, NET_BUFFER_LIST  , packet and checksums as well.
Any suggestions?  We have been stuck on this for a long time now.
Thanks
Deva

Hi Mudit,
Thanks for your replay. I checked the NDIS6.5 Checkconnectivity and Checkconfig these tests were passed. The above Same logic I applied for L3 Check-sum,  then all variations were passed. But only the TCP/UDP
packets only NDIS is not accepting. I put the wire-shark on both sides the packets were same i.e integrity is fine.

  • JUNIT test failure-Configuration file bc4j.xcfg not found in the classpath

    Hi All,
    As part of an ESS project,Im having a model project containing a VO(parameters VO).This VO is configured to have Read-only access through SQL query and have only one transient attribute each.For the model projects containing the VO for pre merge checker compliance I had to create JUNIT Test projects containing new AMs for testing the parametersVO. While running the JUNIT tests I got an exception like
    “oracle.jbo.JboException: JBO-29000: Unexpected exception caught: oracle.jbo.ConfigException, msg=JBO-33001: Configuration file /oracle/apps/hcm/goals/core/dataMigration/publicEssModel/test/applicationModule/common/bc4j.xcfg is not found in the classpath.”.—even though this file is contained in both the src/classes folder of the project.
    When i try to run the TestAM I'm getting an exception like 'configuration tester.xcfg not found in the calsspath.
    While debugging this error, we found that we are able to successfully run the JUNIT tests if we make some changes in the adf-config.xml file of the Application. The change required is to comment out the mdsC:adf-mds-config tag in the xml file.
    After doing this change Im also able to run my AM without any exception.
    Is this a known issue?.
    Since modifying the adf-config.xml is not a recommended practice is there any workaround that we can get rid of this exception.
    Regards,
    Ajin.

    Just checked but could only find this thread Unable to run ADFBC JUNIT Test Classes with JDEV11G 11.1.1.6
    As it's also dealing with junit and 11.1.1.6.0 you might want to read it.

  • NDIS 6.5 Offload checksum failure

    Test Name : Offload Checksum
    Weworking on NDIS miniport driver for a 10G adapter which is causing an issue in receive path. Details mentioned as following.
    TCPRxChecksum Offload is enabled for the 10G adapter. OffloadChecksum HCK test is run which is throwing following errors.
    1)For non fragmentd packet: Tcp Module expected to get 30 packets, but only accepted 0;The miniport is expected to report 30 packets with correct checksum, but only gets 0;
    2)For fragmentd packet: Tcp Module expected to get 30 packets, but only accepted 0;Tcp module expects to receive 30 packets with no offload indications, but it gets 0
    I am doing the following in the miniport driver during the receive path of a packet.
    Driver is indicating the following status to NDIS.
    1)With in OOB data, fields inside NDIS_TCP_IP_CHECKSUM_NET_BUFFER_LIST_INFO  structure are filled appropriately.
    2)In NetBufferList status, NDIS_STATUS_SUCCESS is indicated always.
    We have checked that the packets , checksums are fine in the transmit and receive side. However, NDIS does not seem to accept that the packets have valid checksum and very puzzling.
    Inspite of doing this, HCK is throwing errors. What is that NDIS is expecting in the above two cases for the HCK to pass.

    Did I understand you right that you said that even using a PCI NIC in those systems gave the same errors?  That would likely mean that any corruption is in the hardware... the nForce4 chipset or Hypertransport or maybe even mbrd traces?  I think there are enough systems out there running satisfactorily that that is not a viable explanation: Hypertransport errors would cause all kinds of hard disk problems as well as with other I/O devices.  Are you sure that nothing is (unintentionally) overclocked and have you checked the memory with Orthos http://sp2004.fre3.com/beta/beta2.htm?
    There are a couple of things about the nForce NI though: most important is that the TCP offloading is broken and I've had to disable Checksum Offloading and Segmentation Offloading in the Advanced Properties of the nForce Network Controller in Device Manager.  This also means that the Active Armor is broken and consequently the nVidia Firewall and NAM (Network Access Manager) are useless.  IOW if NAM is installed get rid of it - I've no idea what it might do with other NIs installed in the system... hopefully nothing but then.......
    A couple of points to clear up: 1) are you only getting the errors on an internet connection and LAN connections work OK? 2) What are those nForce systems connected to... a hub or switch and through to a router? 3) I'm not sure what "outbound packet errors" means - is it due to the OS seeing that the packets are malformed before they go to the NI, or is it due to the NI getting error responses from the device on the other end of the "wire"?

  • Memory Test Failure:

    I was digging in my computer drawers for a plastic thing to hold one of my SD cards, and then I found a RAM chip that is 512MB. I need lots of these for the imacs, but I tried to install it, and it didn't work......
    It is a Dell Memory. Make your next upgrade Dell Certified Memory. and there is also the sticker with the M with the circle around it and the small OS9-style font and a bar code.
    It came with one of my imacs!!!!! It was inside it already. I don't remember if I took it out before or after one of the imacs stopped functioning. (also...could that be the cause of the damage of my first 500mhz imac??????)
    I put it in a dark blue 400mhz imac and it has 10.3.9 and 9.2.2 but I have it set to boot into 9.2.2 and it said "Memory Test Failure" or something like that. Everything booted successfully. And then I went to System Profiler. And it did not say 512MB.
    My very first mac was a power mac g3 and it had issues. I thought it would be any number of things. I dismantled it. While I did not have any 512 modules (I want and need lots of them) I decided, reluctlantly, to put in some of the 256mb modules in the imac. And...
    One of the modules caused the imac to never boot. I took that one out. I put another one of them in and instead of the chime, it there was a sound that was similar length, but it sounded like a common stand-alone analog television not recieving any signals. That static noise with the white "snow"?? It sounded like that. "BZZZZ"!! I took that one out. There are two 256mbs, but I want 2 512mbs,
    and...
    THAT is what was wrong with the power mac G3?!?!?!?!?!?! I already took it apart, thinking there wasn't anything easily fixable on it!!!! }=S I guess I will put it together again... But that won't happen until I have some more RAM chips... I do not like 64 mb and 128 mb chips. }=S
    All 4 of the 256mbs were functioning. I bought them as used, and it said that it will fit in g3s. Why are 2 of the 256mbs not functioning any more???? I once had Tiger on Power Mac g3. It is a blue and white g3. Could Tiger's Dashboard have zapped the ram chips??!!!!!!!
    Anyways, for every imac, I would like 2 512 modules. Which ones will work??? Ones that are certified Dell are obviously not. XD
    and will dashboard zap the memory?????? I do not have Tiger installed, but if I install it, will it damage the memory????? =S

    Which iMac do you have? All iMac G3 models only have two memory slots.
    What iMac do you have?

    You could buy an external DVD drive. It needs to be firewire and bootable by Mac OS. If you have another PPC with firewire, you could try target Disk mode and installed tiger that way.
    You need to figure out the level of your firmware before installing 10.2 or greater. ( The PC name for firmware is BIOS. ) Installing 10.2 with a down level firmware will most likely make your iMac unusable and difficult to fix.

  • Error message when trying to recover HD: PXE-E61 Media test failure

    Hi all, new to forums, lots of good info and support here.
    Got the BSOD last week.  Have been trying all of the various fixes mentioned on the board, to no avail. I went back multiple pages looking for alternatives to try.   After stepping away for a few days, I got farther today than I did when I was frustrated.  F12, chose to boot HDD, and got the following LOOPING error message:
    PXE-E61 Media test failure check cable
    PXR-MDF exiting PXE rom
    Which gives me hope that I may not have to replace my hard drive.
    I have a satellite L455-5975, and have ordered recovery disc from acclaim ('0' option didn't work for me, which makes me wonder if Toshiba time limits that support, but that's off topic)
    So it looks to me like my RealTek Ethernet Controller might be the problem?  Any thoughts or suggestions?  Anything I can do or should I wait for recovery disk to arrive? I worry that the recovery disk isn't going to do what I need.   Do I need to replace the ethernet controller, or is this a sign of a hard drive issue?  I consider myself 'fairly' tech savvy, but I've never taken a computer apart/put one together myself.  It would definitely cost less for me to replace HD myself than putting it in the shop.  So I'm willing to try that option if need be.
    I appreciate any help/support!  Reading some of the previous posts make me wonder if rather than investing more money in the satellite, if I shouldn't instead be saving up to buy a new(er) model.

    Creedym...
    I have a very similar problem with my mini-notebook model NB305.
    I'm getting the same message and can't get past F2 or F12.
    Bottom line; I ordered the recovery data from Toshiba on-line by model number ---not by type. They sent two DVDs. My unit doesn't have an optical drive.
    First call to "John"---yes, you can copy the data to a thumb drive and use that.
    Almost two hours of transferring --- the NB305 did not respond to the thumb drive.
    Second call to "Paul". After some consultation on his part with someone else he told me that they don't make a thumbdrive (USB) recovery disk for my model, that's why I received two DVDs. ! I would have take it to a shop where they etc...
    I haven't decided what to do next. Maybe purchase an external drive rather than take it to a repair shop where it will probably cost more than buying an inexpensive external drive.

  • Error Message: PXE-E61 media test failure, check cable

    Hi,
    Recently when I have loaded up my laptop one of two things has happened:
    1) I am taken to Windows error recovery and told that I can either launch windows boot repair or start windows normally. Both lead to a screen which says 'Status: 0xc00000e9, Info: An unexpected I/O error has occurred. It also says that 'windows has experienced a problem communicating with a device connected to your computer. This error could be caused by unplugging a removable storage device, or by faulty hardware such as a HDD or CD-ROM drive'.
    2) I am greeted by a black screen with a lot of text, but one line in particular says : 'PXE-E61 Media test failure, check cable'
    Having read some forums online I have checked the BIOS and the Hard Drive is being detected sometimes, but other times is 'not present'. On examining the boot order the HDD is registered as the first thing to boot.
    I was hoping that some of you would be able to help me out a bit more here, because I'm a bit of a novice when it comes to repairing computers! Any advice that you can give would be appreciated.
    My computer is a Toshiba Sattelite-C660D-102
    Thanks !

    Your hard drive is more than likely failing and will need replaced. You can also check to make sure your hard drive is properly seated and has a good connection.

  • PXE-E61 Meadia test failure error occurred during installing OS form windows deployment service?

    Hi,
         I have installed WDS service in my dell server windows 2008 server R2. I am using WDS server and Dhcp server in different machine.I have received error "PXE:E-61 Media test failure check cable ", when I trying to install
    OS from my WDS server. But I have created a one partition in VMware and successfully installed windows 2008 R2 server from Windows deployment service.  But when I am trying to install the OS in another dell server from WDS, I have received this error.
    Any help?

    Hi,
    For PXE boot, we need the client boot from network. Check your boot option in BIOS settings. Meanwhile, we need WDS server and
    DHCP server accessible. If the client locate in a different subnet, IP helper should be configured to point to WDS server and DHCP server.
    If everything is configured correctly, I recommend you contact with the manufacture.
    Hope this helps.

  • HELP PLEASE - media test failure - check cable

    Hi - I have a toshiba satellite 1955-s801. It crashed on me some time ago and I am now trying to fix it.
    The message I receive when I turn it on :
    " For Realtek RTL8139 (A/B/C)/,RTL8130 PC/Fast Ethernet Controller V2.12 (010425)
    PXE-E61  media test failure - check cable
    Exiting PXE ROM  PXE-MOF"
    This message continues to repeat itself over and over.
    I  read through alot of messages and decided to try to run the 'recovery discs' from when I first received the computer. There are 3-recovery discs.
    I followed the directions, and at this time, I have only put in disk 1.
    It kept looping around back to same prompt messages once it said "starting windows 95" . I kept repeating answering the questions with yes and yes.
    Now - the screen is stuck on "In Touch with Tomorrow" TOSHIBA.
    The recovery disk instructions said not to touch the computer once I start the process. Although, I do not know what to do now. I tried F2 or F12 - but neither does anything. I  believe the screen is now frozen.
    If anyone is out there and can help, I sure would appreciate it!
    thank you

  • Message "PXE-E61: Media test, failure, check cable, PXE-M0F: Exiting PXE ROM"

    Please help! I have a Satellite L300 laptop, bought in October 2008, and never had any problems until this January. In January I took it to Future Shop under warranty and they had to replace hard drive. Everything was fine until the beginning of April when it started to freeze unexpectedly anywhere from 5 mins after start up to 45 mins later.
    It would first go to a blue screen saying it had detected serious problems and would shut down to protect itself, (the page was too fast to read entirely or copy), then on start up would either scan through indexed files, or go straight to a black page with this message:
    "Intel UNDI, PXE-2.1 (build 082)
    Copyright (C) 1997-2000 Intel Corporation

    PXE-E61: Media test failure, check cable
    PXE-M0F: Exiting PXE ROM
    No bootable device -- insert boot disk and press any key"
    It did this numerous times, and said in the control panel that it had problems but no solutions, and my virus scans came back fine, so I took it back to Future Shop assuming it was the hardware again. They scanned it and said it isn't the hardware, but software could be the problem so they did a system restore.
    The day I brought it home it started happening again, so I took it back to see them 2 days later. They said they found nothing doing extensive scans and no messages came up when they used it.
    I've tried searching other forums and everything that mentions this message "PXE-E61" says its a hard drive issue. There is nothing on the microsoft, future shop or toshiba forums on this that I can find...curious...The Future shop guy thought maybe it was my router for internet, but it shuts down/freezes in two different locations with completely different internet service.
    Any suggestions? I'm desperate and Future shop is useless.

    The answer is right above your question.
    If you don't post your COMPLETE model number it's very difficult to assist you. Please try to post in complete sentences with punctuation, capitals, and correct spelling. Toshiba does NOT provide any direct support in these forums. All support is User to User in their spare time.

  • JE-3.1.0 -- testLogSizeBasedCheckpoints test failure

    This is on FreeBSD-6.1/amd64 using Java-1.5.0:
    [junit] Testcase: testLogSizeBasedCheckpoints took 0,84 sec
    [junit] FAILED

    Please, advise. Thanks!

    I'd like my FreeBSD port --
    http://www.freshports.org/java/berkeley-db -- to run
    these tests automatically after building, so that the
    user can be sure, her/his development platform is
    solid.The test has some value for us because it checks an edge case we're concerned about, and we've gotten used to understanding on our own machines whether the failure is an issue or not. It was a tough case to mimic, which is why there are some intermittent failures. But you have a good point here.
    While we'll leave it in the code base, we'll take it out of the default test target in the build file in the next patch release, and we'll put it into one of our meant-for-internal-use test targets. In the meantime, would it work for you to manually remove that specific test from your port?

  • Re: Qosmio F60/05M - PXE-E61 media test failure and harddisk failure

    Hi
    My problem is the computer freezes often and has issues with windows explorer. Also it will freeze when in games. I don't know if the issues are related but after freezing when it starts to reboot it will come up with a black screen reading;
    PXE-E61: Media test failure, check cable
    When I press anything it just comes up with the same message. If I turn the notebook off by the power button and give it some time before turning it on it gives me the option to start windows in safemode or normal if I choose safemode it doesn't start. Also when I run the toshiba PC diagnostic tool the harddisk fails the test. It doesn't give me any explanation.
    This problem has occurred a number of times over the last couple of weeks.
    The model is:
    Qosmio F60/05M PQF65A-05M02W
    Any help would be much appreciated
    Thanks

    Hi mick,
    > Also when I run the toshiba PC diagnostic tool the harddisk fails the test.
    This would be also my personal opinion that something is wrong with HDD itself I mean if the computer try to boot it access the internal HDD and start Windows but if the computer cant find the internal HDD it tries to boot from LAN
    I think you should contact an authorized service provider in your country. The guys should check your HDD and replace it if it necessary.
    Furthermore backup all your data if you didnt do this as yet. Therefore you can use an external USB HDD.
