It probably means that there's a hard limit on how much data can be at a
given stage of processing in your ethernet driver that's getting
overflowed.  Everything should continue to work fine, although network
performance won't be as good as it should be.  Looking in the kernel
source should reveal the exact reason for the message.

As far as stopping the message goes, stop syslog dumping things to console.
The message will still be produced, but not to screen.

Strange message - eth0: too much work in el3_rx

2000-06-13 Thread Moore, Paul
I'm getting strange messages on the console of my Debian machine, namely

    eth0: too much work in el3_rx

Can anyone give me any hints as to (a) what it means, (b) whether it
indicates a problem, and(c) how to get rid of it (as it corrupts my working
screen).

Thanks,
Paul Moore.

PS If I need to supply any more information, let me know - I'm not sure what
might be useful...

1) Could be the interrupt controller hardware. Try using another IRQ.

2) Could be from something on the network. Does it still happen if you are
disconnected from the net?

3) Sometimes other devices, especially older ones have flaws which cause
them to step on I/O addresses, DMA lines, and IRQ lines that they're
really not using. Some of the jumperless ones do this. I have gone as far
as taking a knife to them and permanently removing the connection to
unused IRQ lines. 

4) Make sure your network broadcast, mask, etc. values are correct.
ifconfig will tell you this.

I am getting in regular intervals on the tty console the message:

  eth0: Too much work on interrupt, 0x01

What is that ?? My network is working fine, no problems, maybe it comes 
out becaude my ethernet "wd" driver is set as module ???

Any ideas ??
