Were you not getting any rx_missed_errors before you upgraded, or do you see more of them now?
rx_missed_errors reports the number of "missed" packets due to either an insufficient buffer space or not enough bandwidth on the bus. It would help if you could provide more info regarding your issues such as: 1. HW (lspci) 2. kernel/kernel config 3. Full output of ethtool -S (if you had a driver that performed better a sample from the working and non-working using the same sample traffic is ideal) 4. What type of traffic are you running? I understand that this could be on a router or a system where you don't control the traffic, but if you can find a common test (like netperf) where you can show the increase in rx_missed_errors that would be helpful. 5. If you had flow control enabled - disable it and collect the stats (ethtool -S) again. This can help identify the issue better as you may see other counters increment (such as rx_no_dma_resources). Also if you can please file a bug on sourceforge as this will allow us to better track the issue and keep track of logs (if any).
