There's more than one bug in the 8255x 100bt cards. We needed an additional patch to 2.4.16. It doesn't look like this patch is in 2.4.17. Our problem was reproducible in about 10 minutes w/o the appended patch when under load from a traffic generator spewing 1 byte packets at nearly link rate. Ran 8+ hours with patch. grant ----- Forwarded message from Tim Hockin ----- Delivery-date: Thu, 13 Dec 2001 17:07:42 +0000 Date: Thu, 13 Dec 2001 09:06:17 -0800 Subject: eepro100 voila -- Tim Hockin Systems Software Engineer Sun Microsystems, Cobalt Server Appliances thockin@sun.com diff -ruN 2.4.14-orig/drivers/net/eepro100.c 2.4.14-cobalt/drivers/net/eepro100.c --- 2.4.14-orig/drivers/net/eepro100.c Tue Dec 4 14:30:09 2001 +++ 2.4.14-cobalt/drivers/net/eepro100.c Tue Dec 4 14:03:35 2001 @@ -64,8 +64,8 @@ /* A few values that may be tweaked. */ /* The ring sizes should be a power of two for efficiency. */ -#define TX_RING_SIZE 32 -#define RX_RING_SIZE 32 +#define TX_RING_SIZE 64 +#define RX_RING_SIZE 1024 /* How much slots multicast filter setup may take.
