fresh em(4) patch for RELENG_6 available
Colleagues, although one week ago we have made a very big merge of the em(4) driver from HEAD to RELENG_6, during this week the driver has experienced few important changes in HEAD: 1) Pyun YongHyeon has fixed problems in both TX and RX path that can happen when system experiences mbuf shortage. 2) Intel's driver version 6.1.4 has been merged. The patch for RELENG_6 is available here: http://people.freebsd.org/~glebius/em-RELENG_6.patch Currently there is also a known problem - a race condition, that occurs on SMP triggering a fake watchdog event, that leads to unwanted NIC reset. -- Totus tuus, Glebius.

Hi, Is that problem in the driver in RELENG_6, or what is in the patch ? ---Mike ___ freebsd-stable@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-stable To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Does this have any relation to the post bce0: Error mapping mbuf into TX chain? http://lists.freebsd.org/pipermail/freebsd-stable/2006-August/027449.htm l I also have the above problem (with bce0) on a Dell PowerEdge 2950, although it doesn't seem to take much io to crash the interface.
