Do you mean that the driver would get a packet exceed the size which is set to RxMaxSize? I check it with our hw engineers. They don't get any issue about RxMaxSize. And their test for RxMaxSize register is fine. > Is the silicium of both devices different enough to prevent the same > exploit to happen ? For this case, I don't think the device provide a invalid value for the receive descriptors. However, the driver sees a different value. That is why I say the memory is unbelievable.
