Subject: [PATCH] e1000: Work around 82571 completion timout on Pseries HW
Date: Wed, 16 May 2007 01:53:29 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20070516085329.29131.120.stgit@localhost.localdomain> (raw)

Our 82571 (first PCI-E hardware) causes P-Series hardware to throw
issues. Disabling PCI-E completion timeouts in our NIC resolves
the issue.
