Hi,
in smctr.c request_region() return value is not always checked.
Here is a simple patch to fix it.
Patch is against 2.6.16-rc6-git8.

I am curious about why this is seen only on loopback. Over ether, with
client and server on two machines, there is no 40ms. ack penalty. If
anything, I would expect to see things the other way around--penalty on
ether, no penalty on loopback.
What is the MTU of the loopback interface? The

I think the MAC core cannot be accessed until it is powered up on some

Thanks Pete,
This is correct, the array should contain 3 elements. The bug was we were
accessing a 4th element ([3]) which did not exist. We should be modifying the
last element ([2]) instead.
