Hi Nitin,
I set up a private bridge on dom0 and then have the VMX domain use that
bridge. I use the private bridge to limit the error, so no copying off
system. I'm using a 2GB file for the test. I'm running on 32 and 64bit
SMP systems. I'm using a rhel3u5 Linux guest image, which is a 2.4
kernel. If I add any debugging in pcnet_receive(), it slows it down
enough for the transfer to work.
What environment are you testing in? What is your test case? Are you not
seeing the error anymore?
Is anyone else still seeing the issue like I am?
Since I've applied your patch, it fails quicker now - a few mbs into the
transfer rather than hundreds of mbs before.
I will try a linux 2.6 guest today.
Thanks,
Dan
