Subject : e1000e 2.6.30.1 massive packet loss Submitter : Caleb Cushing <xenoterracide@gmail.com> Date : 2009-07-16 09:49 References : http://marc.info/?l=linux-kernel&m=124773057917887&w=4 Notify-Also : Eric Dumazet <dada1@cosmosbay.com> Notify-Also : Linux Netdev List <netdev@vger.kernel.org> This entry is being used for tracking a regression from 2.6.30. Please don't close it until the problem is fixed in the mainline.
Appears to be fixed in .4 (and just when I was about to not be lazy and bisect the kernel).
Created attachment 23440 [details] wireshark dump I'd like this reopened. I think it may still exist. it has now become intermittent though. Meaning it doesn't happen every reboot. I find the packet loss about ever other reboot (which is why I didn't notice it immediately I don't reboot often). I can still attempt bisecting if necessary. or get any dump's needed.
running kernel26 2.6.31.4-1 I suppose it may be a new bug too.
