Package: openssh-client
Version: 8.1p1-2
I am going to submit this as a bug in openssh-client for the moment,
tho' it may actually be inside the kernel if it is driver related. The
NIC is:
Ethernet controller: Realtek Semiconductor Co., Ltd. RTL8111/8168/8411
PCI Express Gigabit Ethernet Controller (rev 02)
and uses the r8169 driver, if that info is useful here.
When using scp to transfer a large file, it errors out when running
kernel 5.4.4; with 5.3.17 it succeeds. If I throttle the scp command
using the -l option running kernel 5.4.4 it can succeed if it is slowed
down enough.
