Public bug reported:

I am running Kubuntu 8.04 on 1-year-old Intel Mac mini. My Ethernet
interface is "Marvell Technology Group Ltd. 88E8053 PCI-E Gigabit
Ethernet Controller (rev 22)". Driver is "sky2".

Sometimes I see messages like this in dmesg:

..................
[506581.776654] sky2 eth0: rx length error: status 0x402300 length 64
[506586.400773] printk: 9 messages suppressed.
[506586.400782] sky2 eth0: rx length error: status 0x402500 length 64
[506592.767796] printk: 6 messages suppressed.
[506592.767805] sky2 eth0: rx length error: status 0x402300 length 64
[506598.361909] printk: 9 messages suppressed.
.................

After that, connectivity is lost. I can repair it by reloading driver
manually:

ifdown eth0.100
ifdown eth0.200
ifdown eth0.300
rmmod sky2
modprobe sky2
ifup eth0.100
ifup eth0.200
ifup eth0.300

As you see, these are VLAN interfaces. With plain ethernet, the
interface is hanging more frequently.

The problem persists since Kubuntu 7.10.
