Hi Janne,
I don't know whether this is an issue with the re driver or something
else that's affecting the re driver (the way Xen handles network
traffic). Though as far as I know, when a collision is detected, the
behavior is for the sender to invoke it's backoff algorithm and to wait
a set
I saw this same high collision count before I converted my RootBSD domU from
GENERIC to XENHVM. I do not see any collisions show up in netstat -i with
xn0/xn1 instead of re0/re1.
Of course, I needed kern/154302's patch to make the XENHVM kernel work. I hope
that gets committed and merged back
It's would be a logical conclusion that it's an issue with the re
driver then. I cant get my 8.2-RC1 XENHVM kernel to boot so had to
resort to GENERIC, the HVM kernel just panics and I remember seeing
something along the lines of do something smart?
does this patch you mention fix that?

Hi guys,
I am having an issue with high network interface collisions when running
freebsd under XEN (I am using freebsd as my OS for a VPS).
I have filed a PR at http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/query-pr.cgi?pr=154236
and have had some discussion with the driver maintainer, we're both at a
loss
