After a kernel bisect, it was found that reverting the following commit resolved this bug: commit ec5f061564238892005257c83565a0b58ec79295 Author: Pravin B Shelar pshe...@nicira.com Date: Thu Mar 7 09:28:01 2013 + net: Kill link between CSUM and SG features. The regression was introduced as of v3.10-rc1. I see that you are the author of this patch, so I wanted to run this by you. I was thinking of requesting a revert for v3.11, but I wanted to get your feedback first. This issue was reported before and turning off sg solves problem for HyperV driver. Drivers (intel and bnx2x) that I tested works fine with this patch. Have you seen the issue on any other NIC? Thanks for the feedback. We have only seen it on Intel hardware. Can you send a pointer to the patch? If so, we can provide some additional testing. Do you plan on submitting the patch for inclusion in 3.11? What I mean is I do not see any problem with the patch that you have pointed out on ixgbe and bnx2x platforms. HyperV problem went away with disabling sg by ethtool utility. Can you also give me more information about regression you are seeing like driver name, features of the NIC set and features of device without this patch. Does any other NIC than HyperV having this issue? Thanks.
