Description Cristian Barean 2006-01-28 06:10:22 UTC

Most recent kernel where this bug did not occur:On any default kernel doesn't work!
Distribution: Mandriva 2006
Hardware Environment:MSI K8N Platinum
Software Environment:
Problem Description: After compiling the default kernel the sk98lin module it's
not loading. On kernel 2.6.15.1 works only after patching the kernel with the
driver from www.marvell.com. On kernel 2.6.16-rc1, doesn't work at all.
Steps to reproduce:-

Comment 1 Francois Romieu 2006-01-28 09:04:56 UTC

Please send 'lspci -vx'.

Which module did you try with 2.6.16-rc1 ? sk98lin or sky2 ?

Comment 2 Cristian Barean 2006-01-28 12:42:49 UTC

I've tested all modules! None works!

Comment 3 Francois Romieu 2006-01-28 13:26:36 UTC

[...]
> I've tested all modules! None works!

Ok. Please send the output of 'lspci -vx' and 'dmesg'.

Comment 4 Cristian Barean 2006-01-28 14:22:16 UTC

Here is (but with kernel 2.6.15.1 and  patched with the driver from
www.marvell.com, because it is on a single and dual athlon64 working server. The
original sk98lin kernel module is not loading):

added dmesg as attachament (too big)

Comment 6 Stephen Hemminger 2006-01-28 20:51:37 UTC

Please boot kernel without what ever is putting out all those firewall messages!

You need the sky2 driver in 2.6.16-rc1.

Comment 7 Cristian Barean 2006-02-05 10:38:52 UTC

I succeded to make sky2 driver work, but after a few hours, the driver stops
working with the kernel error message "tx timeout". This driver works worst than
the sk98lin from www.marvell.com . You should try using sk98lin driver from
marvell, not the old one from the kernel. At list it is working on every,
Marvell/Yukon Chipset, but with the new modifications from the kernel 2.6.16, it
can't be compiled.

Comment 8 Pavel Volkovitskiy 2006-02-14 22:33:28 UTC

It doesn't works for me too
After several hours i see in dmesg:

Sky2 race on Napi workaround

Workaround patch till more data available.

Comment 10 Cristian Barean 2006-02-20 21:59:40 UTC

Still not working. After an hour of traffic, full load, the driver stucks.

Comment 11 Stephen Hemminger 2006-03-14 13:58:02 UTC

Does the version in 2.6.16-rc6 or later work?

Comment 12 Stephen Hemminger 2006-04-24 14:28:28 UTC

I need to see "cat /proc/interrupts" from your systems.
The driver won't work with edge-triggered IRQ's.  This is arguably a bug, but most
NAPI drivers are that way.

Lots of changes went into the version in 2.6.17-rc3-git18
Please retry with that (or later version).

Several more changes went into 2.6.17-rc4 latest (20 May 2006). These
should fix all of the transmit hang issues.
