Using the driver from HEAD* in the latest RELENG_6 didn't fix our

We could still trigger the Watchdog timeout when copying a local file to
an NFS mounted filesystem (UDP mount, GigE speeds).
Same here, although it seemed to require a lot more effort to produce the
problem.
I see there have been additional updates to the driver in the past 10
hours. I'll grab those and try again to see if they help any.
I'll cautiously say that the latest set of changes to bce might be
interesting for you. It now survives all of my ttcp and netblast tests
in both UDP and TCP. Please let me know if it makes things better,
worse, or no change for you.

The driver from HEAD (if_bce.c 1.17) is looking much better - thanks
Scott!
We couldn't trigger this bug using UDP NFS mounts.
Neither could we trigger it with multiple simultaneous TCP connections.
(Both tests could crash the unpatched kernel and the driver from HEAD
last week - if_bce.c 1.16).
We will apply this patch to all of our RELENG6 2950s and keep you
posted.
Thanks for all the hard work you've put in on this.
Kind regards,
Jason.
