Hi @all,

unfortunately I don't have the old postings any more, so I start a new 
thread.

Following situation:

I have a Server (NFS) and a Client with the Atheros network card. If I 
transfer big files, the md5sum of these files differ.
If I try to scp the file I get "MAC corrupted on inpu".

Everything works fine, if running on any other OS (or with other NICs 
than the Atheros one).

So here is the data:

lspci:

As said: Other NICs than the Atheros work fine.

If you need additional Infos (tcpdumps, etc.) please let me know.

Is it only happening for IPv6 traffic, or is it also buggy for IPv4 ?

If you disable tso , does the bug disappear ?

It also happens with IPv4 (usually not so fast as with IPv6):
