tg3 timeouts with 2.6.17-rc6
Hi, I'm seeing frequent network timeouts on my PowerMac G5 Quad with 2.6.17-rc6. The timeouts are easily reproducible with moderate network traffic, e.g. by using bittorrent. , | NETDEV WATCHDOG: lan0: transmit timed out | tg3: lan0: transmit timed out, resetting | tg3: tg3_stop_block timed out, ofs=2c00 enable_bit=2 | tg3: tg3_stop_block timed out, ofs=1400 enable_bit=2 | tg3: lan0: Link is down. | [...] | tg3: lan0: Link is up at 1000 Mbps, full duplex. | tg3: lan0: Flow control is on for TX and on for RX. ` Juergen -- Juergen Kreileder, Blackdown Java-Linux Team http://blog.blackdown.de/ - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line unsubscribe netdev in the body of a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html

Works fine with 2.6.16 and earlier. Please also provide the full tg3 probing output during modprobe and ifconfig up.

Looking at the patch history since 2.6.16, the only patch that could have an impact is the one that enables TSO by default. Please try turning TSO off to see if it makes a difference: ethtool -K eth0 tso off Seems to work fine with TSO disabled.
