Subject: Via-Rhine stalls - transmit errors
Date: Tue, 19 Mar 2002 23:27:19 -0800 (PST)	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20020320072719.72412.qmail@web10102.mail.yahoo.com> (raw)

Hello, 

I was unsure about the maintainer of the via-rhine
driver so I'm mailing the bug report to the kernel
list. Please cc to ivangurdiev@yahoo.com.

Problem:
My ethernet card

/proc/pci:
    Ethernet controller: VIA Technologies, Inc.
VT86C100A [Rhine 10/100] (rev 6).
      IRQ 11.

is stalling during a large scp transfer.
The card freezes for a long time, before continuing
the transfer. I receive transmit timeout messages
and "something wicked happened".
Connection is negotiated to 100BaseTx-FD.


System Information:
AMD Athlon XP 1600+, Matsonic MS8127C+ board,
VIA Apollo Kt133A/VT82C686B, 
Ethernet Controller - listed above,
Kernel 2.4.19-pre3, using the via-rhine driver.


System on the opposite end:
Sony Vaio Laptop - Pentium III Coppermine,
ethernet card: Netgear FA410TX Pcmcia
Kernel: 2.4.19-pre3 using pcnet_cs driver

Appended are sections of the log of an scp transfer
using via-rhine debug lvl 7 - /var/log/messages.
