This was first observed when sending data across a long distance set of networks. On a local network, the following test was performed using a 1MB file of random data. On the receiver run this script: #!/bin/bash while [ 1 ]; do # Zero the stats nstat -r > /dev/null nc -l 9899 > test-file # Check for checksum errors TcpInCsumErrors=$(nstat | grep TcpInCsumErrors) if [ -z "$TcpInCsumErrors" ]; then echo No TcpInCsumErrors else echo TcpInCsumErrors = $TcpInCsumErrors fi done On an AST2600 system: # nc 9899 < test-file The test was repeated with various MTU values: # ip link set mtu 1410 dev eth0 The observed results: 1500 - good 1434 - bad 1400 - good 1410 - bad 1420 - good The test was repeated after disabling tx checksumming: # ethtool -K eth0 tx-checksumming off And all MTU values tested resulted in transfers without error. An issue with the driver cannot be ruled out, however there has been no bug discovered so far. David has done the work to take the original bug report of slow data transfer between long distance connections and triaged it down to this test case. The vendor suspects this this is a hardware issue when using NC-SI. The fixes line refers to the patch that introduced AST2600 support.
