Followup-For: Bug #516382
vanilla kernel 2.6.29 does not work as well.
However, disabling scatter gather with ethtool seems to make the issue
disappear.
ethtool -K ethX sg off
this may help in narrowing down the issue to a specific part of the
driver.
as a side note, ethtool complains about device flags (I have not seen
this on a different tg3 supported card I own).
# ethtool -k eth0
Offload parameters for eth0:
Cannot get device flags: Operation not supported
rx-checksumming: on
tx-checksumming: on
scatter-gather: off
tcp segmentation offload: off
udp fragmentation offload: off
generic segmentation offload: on
large receive offload: off
Could you please try to reproduce this with a 2.6.31 build and report the
problem upstream through http://bugzilla.kernel.org ? Upstream should look
into this if the problem persists.
Cheers,
Moritz
