Description

So far it looks like the problem only happens with ipv6 packets. I will keep running the test today to make sure of this. OK, so far I have this info: ipv4 => no problem ipv6 w/ tso => data corruption ipv6 w/o tso => no problem It looks like either the NIC or the network driver has issues with ipv6 and TSO. I have reported the bug upstream: http://lkml.org/lkml/2009/10/28/189 It's a long shot, but can you try this scratch build when/if it finishes? There is a fix for a TSO bug in it: http://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/taskinfo?taskID=1782682 Created attachment 367852 [details]
tg3: Enable IPv6 LSO offload in hardware
This patch enables hardware IPv6 LSO offload support for the 5761
and 5717.
Does this patch fix the problem?
This bug appears to have been reported against 'rawhide' during the Fedora 13 development cycle. Changing version to '13'. More information and reason for this action is here: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/BugZappers/HouseKeeping This message is a reminder that Fedora 13 is nearing its end of life. Approximately 30 (thirty) days from now Fedora will stop maintaining and issuing updates for Fedora 13. It is Fedora's policy to close all bug reports from releases that are no longer maintained. At that time this bug will be closed as WONTFIX if it remains open with a Fedora 'version' of '13'. Package Maintainer: If you wish for this bug to remain open because you plan to fix it in a currently maintained version, simply change the 'version' to a later Fedora version prior to Fedora 13's end of life. Bug Reporter: Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that we may not be able to fix it before Fedora 13 is end of life. If you would still like to see this bug fixed and are able to reproduce it against a later version of Fedora please change the 'version' of this bug to the applicable version. If you are unable to change the version, please add a comment here and someone will do it for you. Although we aim to fix as many bugs as possible during every release's lifetime, sometimes those efforts are overtaken by events. Often a more recent Fedora release includes newer upstream software that fixes bugs or makes them obsolete. The process we are following is described here: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/BugZappers/HouseKeeping Fedora 13 changed to end-of-life (EOL) status on 2011-06-25. Fedora 13 is no longer maintained, which means that it will not receive any further security or bug fix updates. As a result we are closing this bug. If you can reproduce this bug against a currently maintained version of Fedora please feel free to reopen this bug against that version. Thank you for reporting this bug and we are sorry it could not be fixed. |
