Hi Henrik,
Thanks for the information. I notice you are also using 82541. The issue
sounds like a chip specific one.
I just reviewed all the recent putbacked CR before snv_104 of e1000g.
6713032 e1000g port hang, no xmit, no recv
6767201 e1000g default_mtu does not coincide with max_frame_size
on some chipsets when set via e1000g.conf
PSARC 2008/608 brussels property permissions
6723890 ndd interface donesn't report properties' read/write
capacities correctly after CR 6667363
was put back in snv_104, which should have no impact to 82541.
6727113 e1000g performance regression is observed with large
connection and packet size if LSO is enabled
6756917 LSO is not enabled on some e1000g chips
was put back in snv_103, which should have no impact to 82541.
6644298 some DLPI test cases fail in DomU when trying to receive
in promiscuous and/or multicast mode
PSARC 2008/382 Fast Reboot
6714038 Fast Reboot support for x86 platforms
was put back in snv_100.
6666998 Add support for ICH10 in e1000g driver
6709230 Requesting driver support in e1000g for new Intel(R)
single port MAC/PHY NIC
was put back in snv_99.
6705005 e1000g LINK/ACT LED behaviour is not consistent with the
EEPROM default
6738552 e1000g rx_lock is not initialized and destroyed in the code
6634746 e1000g is missing lint target in Makefile
was put back in snv_98.
Since I don't have such type of chip on hand, could you do me a favor to
identify in which version the problem started to emerge?
Thanks,
Miles Xu
