similar to: recent stability problems with fxp driver

I've spent the past four days or so updating machines here to 4.8/9-stable via cvsup, and have done a complete make buildworld/kernel on each machine (some SMP, some single processor). It seems something is broken with the latest fxp driver, on each machine (different mobos and hardware configs) heavy network traffic with fxp NICs causes timeouts and random kernel panics. First machine to

Hi, Whilst doing some QA work on XORP on my desktop, which has fxp0 and msk0, fxp0 got totally hosed. I was running PIM-SM and IGMPv2 router-mode on the box at the time. I wonder if this is related to the problems with fxp multicast transmission I saw back in April. I'm a bit concerned about this as fxp is still a very widespread and useful network chip. I am running

Hello, after upgrading my system from 7.1-RELEASE to recent RELENG_7 I noticed stalled network transfers in certain cases. I have an Intel PRO/100 ethernet adapter (card=0x00408086 chip=0x12298086 rev=0x0c). In general networking works fine. I can ping hosts, surf on websites and so on. But if I send large files (>1 MB) to my server the transfer stalls after a few kilobytes. This concerns FTP

I've tried the exact same setup on my desktop, using 192.168.1.x and an fxp device, and it all works perfectly, but as soon as I do this on another machine on a public IP, I'm not getting any routing, I can't even ping it from the same machine ... My first thought was

Okay, no one had any idea concerning my Radmin question, which I still haven''t figured out. However, I am now trying to figure out an FXP problem. All of the needed details are listed below the description problem. Problem: I have a local windows XP pro computer running FlashFXP behind shorewall 2.0.9 (unpatched) with only two interfaces (ppp0 and eth1) as loc:192.168.1.5. The server

Hi all I've very big problem with my nfsd server.

Nothing can make the network card work again (only reboot working). There are only one service I need on this server and

Hello, smbmount from smbfsx-2.04b-1 kernel 2.2.7 I got a little problem with smbfs. Everything works fine, but sometimes i get doubled directory entries (not all of them). I turned debug on in smbfs and it looks that the doubled items come from NT server (4.0 server SP5 (PDC)). Listing from smbclient is fine. Here is an example from ls -l on smb share: -rw-rw---- 1 root samba 848

Dear Sirs. It seems to me a never ending story. We run a box with a TYAN Thunder 2500 Dual SMP mainboard, 2GB ECC Tyan certified memory, AMI Enterprise 1600 RAID adapter and additional Intel 1000/Pro server type (64 bit) GBit LAN NIC. With FreeBSD 4.8 this was stable, but to achive this state was really hard! It is a story similar to that what happend when we changed towards FreeBSD

Dear All, I have a FreeBSD box running 5.4-RELEASE-p8.

A week ago it was working just properly, but after adding more RAM

Hi, hackers : Yesterday night and this morning, I cvsup my system to latest STABLE branch source (RELENG_4). All make buildworld, buildkernel, and installkernel procedure was completed with no error. But when I boot into single user mode and try to make installworld, I always got " touch: not found " error. Does anyone encounter this situation ? I have no idea about that. :-( Here is

Hi, I'm having strange performance problems with samba and an application written with VisualFox Pro. This application is entirely installed in a Windows share and it has a hystory of strange phenomenons. Initially it ran fast on an old NT server (but that server has been replaced). It has strange performance problems with Windows 2000 Server: it runs fast with some servers and slow with

Hi, I noticed that my 4.8R box seems to have a NFS problem. I use a FreeBSD/i386 4.8R box as a NFS server, and a FreeBSD/i386 5-CURRENT (as of today) as the NFS client. On the client, /a (on the server) can be mounted successfully with -o rw,bg,intr,mntudp options. However, when a large amount of write operations such as "cp -r /home/ncvs /a" are performed on the client, the

With FreeBSD 6.3-RELEASE, I'm finding significant packet loss (sometimes 85%). If I insert an Intel nic (fxp), there is nil packet loss with similar tests (ping -c 100). re0: <RealTek 8168/8111B PCIe Gigabit Ethernet> port 0xc800-0xc8ff mem 0xf9fff000-0xf9ffffff irq 17 at device 0.0 on pci1 I have seen a thread on current mentioning similar problems:

Hi there, sorry for rather long mail. Two verbose dmesgs and `pciconf -vl` outputs attached. trying to set up new machine based on ASUS P4BGL-MX motherboard, I'd encountered hangs after detecting pcib1 (ICH2). MB has rl 8100 ethernet chip onboard. This is for 4.8-R; however, machine hangs in very similar way also with 4.4-R and 5.1-R. Matrix of hangs: Onboard Ether External Ether Result
