I'm seeing similar behaviour on a HP DL360g4 running 6.1-RELEASE and a GENERIC kernel. It had similar problems with 5.4. I have 2 other similar machines running 6.1, which don't record these errors, however they never see any sustained throughput whereas this machine does.

Is it causing stuck connections or other messy problems? Also, is it any worse than 6.1?
Fortunately all it seems to be doing is bothering my log files. I'm taking an interest as I have two important production machines using the bge driver both about to be upgraded from 5.3R to 6.1R. I've just grepped the logs on those machines and they both have a sprinkling of timeouts (5 over 18 months on one quite heavily trafficked webserver, the other which continously serves http downloads is clean apart from 1 24hour period when it was having 200GB of files uploaded to it). My concern is that upgrading to 6.1 or 6.2 and then enabling device polling is going to make the issue worse.
I'm happy to supply more info. best. greg. _______________________________________________ freebsd-stable@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-stable To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
