I think this is particularly concerning. The ethernet connection just seems unstable. As pointed out, there simply should not be packet loss.

I will try replacing the Pi 5 with a PC tomorrow to trying eliminating the 7i96s as part of the problem.

cnc@linuxcnc:~/Downloads/7i96s/configs/hostmot2$ sudo chrt 99 ping -i .001 -q 10.10.10.10
PING 10.10.10.10 (10.10.10.10) 56(84) bytes of data.

Replaced RPi 5 with HP desktop running LinuxCNC 0.29.1, connected to 7i96s over CAT6 cable.

sudo chrt 99 ping -i .001 -q 10.10.10.10

Quick test shows 0% packet loss for 40,000 packets.

And a longer test:

2312351 sent, 2312350 received  <<<<<<<  Loss of 1 packet

rtt min/avg/max/mdev = 0.177/0.266/0.455/0.019 ms

Seems ATM the RPi5 isn't the best candidate for Linuxcnc.

Here's half a days worth of pinging a 7i96S on a Intel PC:

sudo chrt 99 ping -i .001 -q 10.10.10.10
PING 10.10.10.10 (10.10.10.10) 56(84) bytes of data.

This command FOLLOWED BY CTRL+C consistently leads to a single dropped packet in about 50% of runs. Perhaps this is happening due to the Ctrl+C causing the code to exist a loop somewhere while not awaiting the last packet to return from the 7i96s...?

sudo chrt 99 ping -O -i .001 -q 10.10.10.10

569 packets transmitted, 568 received, 0.175747% packet loss, time 568ms

1400 packets transmitted, 1399 received, 0.0714286% packet loss, time 1400ms

320 packets transmitted, 319 received, 0.3125% packet loss, time 319ms

Changing to

sudo chrt 99 ping -O -i .001 -q 10.10.10.10 -c 500

where the -c 500 causes the ping code to exit after 500 cycles consistently (100%) results in 0% packet loss (ca. 20 attempts).

LOL wasn't sure whether you were having me on or not... anyways, I unplugged the wireless KB/mouse dongle and replaced it with a wired KB....... the 1x dropped packet issue remains. Weirdy.

Booting from MicroSD or NVME?
If first, try a different one, if you can.
Or a USB stick...
-
If NVME, skip the above.
-
Also, in a terminal
sensors
should show temperatures, if the processor is above 60-65C, slap some cooling on it.

So....... this morning the Pi 5 has been quite stable in terms if ethernet comms. I might naively be thought to have caused this because I added 1x 0.1 uF and 1x 47 uF/16 V electrolytic capacitor across the blue terminal block (photo a couple of pages back) which is across the +5V / 0V rail.

I did this for a few reasons. First, because yesterday I plugged in the 7i96s while the Pi was running which may have caused the Pi to reset. Possibly the voltage at the Pi dipped due to 7i96s capacitance. I don't know if the Pi has any decent amount of power supply capacitance -- perhaps it is hidden under the heatsink (not a good place for electrolytic capacitors to live).

Second, the 5V/3A Meanwell PSU datasheet does not specify the output capacitance (or stability if you add capacitance). But in any case, the resetting of the Pi could suggest it doesn't have a lot of output capacitance.

Third, the 5V rail wiring is a bit long and all over the place, so could be picking up noise from other appliances, so this could suppress it a bit.

I also raised the Meanwell 5V rail voltage from 5.0 to 5.1V at the PSU terminals. Voltage drop in the wiring is about 100 mV according to my dodgy DMM, thus perhaps the rail was causing instability.

Well, things were quite stable, so I reversed all of the above and things are still stable !!! I can repeatedly send 50,000 packets with 1 ms spacing and get 0% loss.
