Bug#430934: Kernel unaligned accesses with ip_fast_csum and ip_rcv with r8169 driver



Package: linux-image-2.6-sparc64-smp 
Version: 2.6.18+6

Description :

I use the r8169 driver from the kernel-source-2.6.18 package on a Sun 
Entreprise 450 (sparc64-smp) and got a bunch of aligned accesses on ip_rcv 
followed by 4 unaligned access on ip_fast_csum, like that :

Kernel unaligned access at TPC[5fd878] ip_rcv+0xf0/0x608
Kernel unaligned access at TPC[52cac4] ip_fast_csum+0xc/0x80
Kernel unaligned access at TPC[52cac8] ip_fast_csum+0x10/0x80
Kernel unaligned access at TPC[52cacc] ip_fast_csum+0x14/0x80
Kernel unaligned access at TPC[52cad4] ip_fast_csum+0x1c/0x80

I tried a similar fix as the one suggested in bug #409313, which points to 
this patch : http://article.gmane.org/gmane.linux.ports.sparc/7178

Unfortunately, increasing the rx_copybreak for sparc does not help.

If you need further informations, please let me know. I know the driver is not 
included by default in the linux-image-2.6-sparc64-smp package, and as soon 
as this driver gets fixed, I could open a request for it to be included.

Distribution is Debian etch freshly installed from yesterday.
