Hi,

After banging on an e100 card for about ten minutes with a ~60kpps stream,
the interface stops receiving packets. Interrupts come in once every few
seconds (from /proc/interrupts), but no packets are received anymore at all.
Lots of slab corruption messages in the syslog that were generated during
that packet stream (see other email I sent.) Stopping the packet stream
still leaves the interface unusable. 'ifconfig eth1 down ; ifconfig eth1 up'
seems to fix things.


Is NAPI enabled for this driver? The interrupt behavior seems normal for NAPI, but certainly the rest of the behavior does not...
