The MSI error wasn't fatal, so it was suppressed in recent fixes for
2.6.22-rc7. The driver in 2.6.21 had many bugs, but I ain't sure if

Thank you for your comment.
I have a question regarding netfilter infrastructure.
I want to filter messages using "task_struct->security".
Can the netfilter's queuing to userspace feature
get a list of "struct task_struct" who shares a socket
that is going to receive incoming messages?
My approa

Setting bit 4 & 5 alone in 8139too module media option does not really
force 100Mbps full-duplex mode. When media option bit 0-3 is cleared,
8139too module does not force media setting. Therefore, bit 0-3 requires
to be set for bit 4 & 5 to take effect. The
Let me ask a different question. Why do we have some many user reported
problems with network drivers, not just the E1000's?
Is it lack of specifications? test infrastructure?
Or as I suspect lots of it has to with the myriad of chip revisions, including
cases where designs get reworked by OEM's.

At present, when a device is enslaved to bonding, if ipv6 is
active then addrconf will be initated on the slave (because it is closed
then opened during the enslavement processing). This causes DAD and RS
packets to be sent from the slave. These packets in turn can confuse
switches that

hi,
Running ISIC -- IP Stack Integrity Checker ( http://isic.sf.net ),
in Fedora-7-i386 with 2.6.22, the NIC stopped to send packages.
But 1 second latter it began to send out more of them.
dmesg shows the bug.
command is:
# tcpsic -s rand -d 172.26.0.2 -I100
driver is:

Hello.
This is "take 2" of updates for deprecating RH0 for
linux-2.6.22 (or net-2.6.23).
Note: sorry, previous patches introduced a linkage error.
Though it is not a good idea to disable RH2, we retain
the knob for it so far for backward compatibility.
Changesets are available at

With one exception, all DONGLE_OLD drivers have newer counterparts.
The DONGLE_OLD drivers depend on BROKEN_ON_SMP which e.g. implies that
the many distributions shipping only SMP-kernels will never offer them.
The one exception is a driver for the Cirrus Logic EDB-7211 evaluation
board that it
Between the "normal" case and the "net namespace + macvlan" case,
results are about the same for both the throughput and the local CPU
load for the following test types: TCP_MAERTS, TCP_RR, UDP_STREAM, UDP_RR.
macvlan looks like a very good candidate for network namespace in these
cases.

My patch may return errors for non-wait_on_sync_kiocb() case too.
Are you saying only wait_on_sync_kiocb() case is bad?
