I havent investigated far enough yet to see if this is the same problem, but I am also seeing hangs on em0 when under heavy load. This is 8-STABLE from the 17 at around 3pm.
em0@pci0:0:25:0: class=0x020000 card=0x281e103c chip=0x10bd8086 rev=0x02 hdr=0x00 vendor = 'Intel Corporation' device = 'Intel 82566DM Gigabit Ethernet Adapter (82566DM)' class = network subclass = ethernet What I am doing here is using ggated/ggatec to provide drives to another machine which is adding them into a ZFS pool. This locks up the ethernet in about 20 minutes. Going to concole on the machine all looks fine, but it is not possible to ping anything through the em0 interface. I have no special tunings for em0, though I do have expanded buffer space to improve the ggated performance kern.ipc.maxsockbuf=1048576 net.inet.tcp.sendspace=131072 net.inet.tcp.recvspace=131072 Machine is amd64 with 6 gig of RAM. -pete. _______________________________________________ freebsd-stable@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-stable To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-stable-unsubscr...@freebsd.org"
