Andrew, if you think this is really a bug, please raise these flags: rhel‑5.5.0 ? pm_ack ? devel_ack ? qa_ack + Thanks. set (I can't set qa_ack+) There is a hard limit (due to array size) of the rx_ring_sz to 150 entries. Currently, the driver will let any value be set, which can cause the memory corruption bug you are seeing. I should have a fix pushed to mainline shortly. This request was evaluated by Red Hat Product Management for inclusion in a Red Hat Enterprise Linux maintenance release. Product Management has requested further review of this request by Red Hat Engineering, for potential inclusion in a Red Hat Enterprise Linux Update release for currently deployed products. This request is not yet committed for inclusion in an Update release. Where are the patches upstream for this to inspect?
