On Nov 23 Roland Dreir sent a patch for interrupt handling, but it
doesn't apply on -current since the file rt2661.c changed slightly
a few weeks earlier (1.51, date: 2009/11/01).

This patch just changes Roland's patch to update against rt2661.c

Mind sharing your hostname.ral0 and the tools you use to trigger this
situation? I've tried hping, tcpbench, ping -f, rsync, etc to no avail.

About two weeks ago, I sent a fix for the ral(4) driver ([PATCH] Fix
interrupt handling in ral(4) for RT2661 under load,
http://www.mail-archive.com/t...@openbsd.org/msg01155.html). I have
not gotten any response from any OpenBSD developers, and I have not
seen the patch committed. I'm happy to
Hi Damien / OpenBSD devs,
Did anyone get a chance to look at this diff? These fixes are the
difference for me between ral being usable as an AP and getting stuck
almost immediately under heavy load. Is there anything I need to do
to get this committed?
Thanks,
Roland
Does it do anything for 2860? I have that as an AP now and every once in
a while it stops working, I need to restart the interface.
No, the driver code is a completely different C file. It's possible
there are analogous bugs for 2860 though, since the hardware and
driver are both closely
The interrupt handling in ral(4) for RT2661 has a couple of problems,
which causes the interface to get stuck under heavy load with OACTIVE
set (the problems are likely especially severe on slow systems such as
my 600MHz VIA system); bouncing the interface down and back up fixes
things. As I
By the way, I forgot to mention that even with this patch applied, I
do have one odd problem with ral on my system -- after some time
(hours it appears), the ral interface stops being able to send
multicasts/broadcasts. All other traffic works fine, including
receiving multicasts, but no
Hi, I have a mini-itx system being used as a wireless router with a
Ralink RT2661 wifi card (driven by ral(4)) in host AP mode. I've
found that if I copy a lot of data from my laptop connected via wifi
to another system connected via wired (100 mbit) ethernet, say doing a
big rsync, that the ral
