Subject: Re: [PATCH] eepro100 - need testers
Date: Sun, 09 Dec 2001 20:42:10 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <3C142F12.2040707@candelatech.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <E167w6n-0001dz-00@fenrus.demon.nl> <3C0D54DF.4E897B70@sun.com>

Before this patch, I would see out-of-resource messages when I ran
50Mbps+ traffic + bonnie++ on a P-III 550Mhz machine.  With this patch,
I see no error messages, and traffic is flowing fine...

So, seems like a winner to me!

PS.  I don't currently have any machines available to test the
cmd-timeout issues with the eepro driver and some NICs.  Has
anyone tested to see if this patch actually fixes those problems too?

Thanks,
Ben
