Hi,
This version does not do blatantly stupid things in hardware irq context, is
more efficient, and... wow the patch is smaller! (That never happens.)
I don't mark skbs as being allocated from reserve any more. That works, but
it is slightly bogus, because it doesn't matter which skb came

Simply do the pci_save_state before the register_netdev()
call, no need to mess around with the locking.

So then there is no choice but to throttle the per-cpu -input_pkt queues.
Make the driver support NAPI if you want device fairness.

Well, this means that your ICMP errors need to be NAT'ed but they
cannot, since the original connection causing the ICMP error did not go

Hi Guys,
I'm very pleased to announce that the Linux 2.6 DCCP implementation
has been merged in David Miller's net-2.6.14.git tree, and should appear
shortly on Andrew Morton's 2.6.13-rcLATEST-mm tree and finally in mainline
when Linus starts 2.6.14.
There is still a lot of work

Hang on a second, the original poster mentioned rc5. Is this really
pristine rc5 with the one netpoll patch? If so then it can't be the
patches we're talking about because they only went in days later.
Yes, I have no other patches in, so if it was not in -RC5, I was not
running it.

I decided against sticking this into 2.6.13, as these changes

This patch fills in some missing pieces:
* Support v4 udp: same as v4 tcp, when in reserve, drop packets on
noncritical sockets
* Support v4 icmp: when in reserve, drop icmp traffic
* Add reserve skb support to e1000 driver
* API for dropping packets before delivery
