Your customers will not necessarily like it but it could be useful to trace the Rx/Tx descriptor ring content and the irq status word. If your make it dependent on tp->msg_enable (settable via 'ethtool -s ethX msglvl 65535), you can enable it at will and catch some bit of normal traffic just before you experiment with the magic cable. > On Sun, 18 Nov 2007 22:00:38 +0100, Francois Romieu wrote > > Denys <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> : [...] > > I'll take care of it once I am done with the sis190 watchdog failure > > (nothing hard, simply ugly). Actually I lack a reliable indication that the Tx process is stuck. My hack seems able to recover but it can be quite slow to trigger. A contact at SiS would be welcome. -- Ueimor - 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
