Re: [PATCH 1/1] via-rhine: Fix hanging with high CPU load on low-end broads. |
Looks like the hardware isn't really disabling interrupts correctly to support NAPI. NAPI is supposed to be friendly and under load the work should move to ksoftirqd. I suspect the IRQ management in this driver is borked. There is some stupid spin loops in the IRQ handler that happen when looking for Tx IRQ. I would run with debug set and see if this is triggering. -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe netdev" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
