Bug#281819: Network hangs under load (D-Link DGE-550T w/ deb kernels 2.4.27 & 2.6.8)
Package: kernel
Severity: normal
I am testing the implementation of traffic shaper based around a
Linux/Debian system (dmesg dump follows below).
If I storm a d-link card with a comand such as:
for i in `seq 1 10` ; do (ping -f gateway -s 1400 & );done
or
for i in `seq 1 10` ; do (ping -f gateway & );done
After a couple of seconds the network hangs and the following error is
printed:
eth0: HostError! IntStatus 0002
I have to ifdown eth0 ; ifup eth0 to regain conectivity.
The same symptoms occur with the kernels 2.6.8-1-386 and
2.6.8-1-686-smp, except that the error printed (repeatadly) is:
localhost kernel: eth0: Tx timed out (0000), is buffer full?
Again, I have to restart the interface to gain connectivity. Changing
the connection speed by setting module parameters had no effect on this
problem.
Using the 100 baseT via network card produced no problems. Also, using a
different system (Dell PowerEdge) with a e1000 produced no problems.
