@joe: no, 2.6.32-34.77 doesn't include it. But the kernel 2.6.32-35.78 in -proposed includes it, and is awaiting verification that it solves the problem. Please test the kernel and update this bug with the results. If the problem is solved, change the tag 'verification-needed-lucid' to 'verificati

Joe - I was looking at the current upstream driver when I decided irq save/restore was not required. It looks to me like the stats gathered are produced by hardware and are not under CPU control. And in fact, the original intent of the lock portion of the patch was to prevent collision between simu

tim - i was saving/restoring irqs because the rx/tx queue stats could be modified when a tx/rx completes (for example, check the end of igb_clean_tx_irq). the individual queue stats are totaled up in igb_update_stats so updating the stats in igb_clean_tx_irq could be problematic... -- You receive

@Andy The basic issue is that we have software that monitors our servers using these stats and due to how they are tracked in the igb driver in 10.04 we miss our network statistics every other second. Obviously this is suboptimal, especially considering it seems that most other drivers don't have
