Hi there, I get the following message when trying to transfer big files (via FTP or SCP) since Linux 2.6.16.27. It didn't happen with Linux 2.6.13.4.
[702238.242237] eth1: increased tx threshold, txcfg 0xd0f01008. [702238.242649] eth1: increased tx threshold, txcfg 0xd0f0100a. What about putting this message at the message level "DEBUG" or even under pr_debug()? This NIC is just used for PPPoE in our setups. The other message "tx underrun with maximum tx threshold" is much more useful, since it indicates a real problem. So I would suggest the following patch: Signed-off-by: Ingo Oeser <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> --- linux-2.6.16.28/drivers/net/natsemi.c~ 2006-08-25 22:51:14.000000000 +0200 +++ linux-2.6.16.28/drivers/net/natsemi.c 2006-09-13 15:26:24.995044665 +0200 @@ -2338,8 +2338,7 @@ if ((np->tx_config & TxDrthMask) < TX_DRTH_VAL_LIMIT) { np->tx_config += TX_DRTH_VAL_INC; if (netif_msg_tx_err(np)) - printk(KERN_NOTICE - "%s: increased tx threshold, txcfg %#08x.\n", + pr_debug("%s: increased tx threshold, txcfg %#08x.\n", dev->name, np->tx_config); } else { if (netif_msg_tx_err(np)) - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe netdev" in the body of a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
