Hi,
thanks for your help. I patched my kernel yesterday. Now I have to wait some
days.
The error occurs not periodically. If it occurs again I let you now.
many thanks

Hi,
today I had a strange system hang on one of our new Dell PER620 machines.
I'm running a self compiled kernel, version 3.7.2 with linux vserver patch
included.
uname -a
Linux dbhost04 3.7.2-vs2.3.5.5-rol-em64t #4 SMP Sun Feb 3 14:08:37 CET 2013

15min. systemload between 1-3.
Today the system hangs for some seconds and I got the folling errors in syslog
multiple times within one second:

After the last message I got this entries in syslog, too:
Feb 20 15:58:04 dbhost04 kernel: [1464001.755218] CPU18: Core power limit normal

Feb 20 15:58:04 dbhost04 kernel: [1464001.769627] Switching to clocksource hpet
I searched the archives for this error, but I can't find any solution.
And my second PER620 doesn't show this error until now.
Have you any idea what this problem could be?
I'm not subscribed to lkml, if you need more information please contact me
directly by email.
Many thanks for your help.

I guess tg3 needs to call dev_kfree_skb_any()
