Subject: [PATCH] sky2: disable rx checksum on Yukon XL
Date: Wed, 21 Nov 2007 14:55:26 -0800 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20071121145526.1f0b9f06@freepuppy.rosehill> (raw)
The Marvell Yukon XL chipset appears to have a hardware glitch
where it will repeat the checksum of the last packet. Of course, this is
timing sensitive and only happens sometimes...
More info: http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=9381
As a workaround just disable hardware checksumming by default on
this chip version. The earlier workaround for PCIX, dual port
was also on Yukon XL so don't need to disable checksumming there.
