Does latest MoonGen support I210 NIC for timestamping and latecny measurement?
Hi, I set up the network with two I210 NIC. By running "sudo ./moongen-simple start load-latency:0:1:rate=1Mp/s", it seems to run normally, as shown in the first snippet as below. But if ",time=3m" option is appended, it will report "[Error] 1 errors found while processing flow "load-latency" and "[WARN] Unknown option "time"".
Without "time=3m" option, now I have to hard stop the program, which may cause the logging problem, i.e. histogram of './load-latency_1-0_1.csv' is empty. So I can not check the latency recording.
For checking the timestamping capability of I210, I run "sudo ./build/MoonGen examples/timestamping-tests/test-timestamping-capabilities.lua 0 1". The results are shown as the second snippet as below. The outstanding error is "[ERROR] Received no packets." Does that mean I210 is not supported by MoonGen?
Hope for your help, Best, -Yi

I'm not sure if I've ever tested it with an i210, it should work. The register definitions are here: https://github.com/libmoon/libmoon/blob/master/lua/driver/igb.lua Maybe they are wrong for the i210?
