The same algorithm from e1000 is appropriate here. Upon more detailed study of the Linux driver which has a newer AIM implementation, it finally became clear to me this is actually a holdoff timer and not an interrupt limit as it is conventionally (statically) programmed and displayed as an interrupt rate. The data sheets also make this somewhat clear. Thus, AIM accomplishes two beneficial things for a wide variety of workloads[1]: 1. At low throughput/packet rates, it will significantly lower latency (by counter-intuitively "increasing" the interrupt rate.. better thought of as decreasing the holdoff timer because you will modulate down before coming anywhere near these interrupt rates). 2. At bulk data rates, it is tuned to achieve a lower interrupt rate (by increasing the holdoff timer) than the current static 8000/s. This decreases processing overhead and yields more headroom for other work such as packet filters or userland. For a single NIC this might be worth a few sys% on common CPUs, but may be meaningful when multiplied such as if_lagg, if_bridge and forwarding setups. The AIM algorithm was re-introduced from the older igb or out of tree driver, and then modernized with permission to use Intel code from other drivers.
