Thread-topic: [Xen-devel] problem with the pro/1000 driver for intel gigabitethernet card

I have seen this (intermittent) problem on two 4P boxes and a laptop, all using e1000 driver.

What kind of network input triggers the end of the hang? I have seen this hang on a busy network with lots of broadcast traffic.  Did not see it with a network restart that was separate from domain shutdown.

Bug filed: http://bugzilla.xensource.com/cgi-bin/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=35

We're not seeing it on 2.0.5 either. The first thing I would do would
be to diff the driver between 2.6.10 and 2.6.11.
