>Description:
On a Asus P5K motherboard with the following if:
age0@pci0:2:0:0: class=0x020000 card=0x82261043 chip=0x10481969 rev=0xb0 hdr=0x00
vendor = 'Attansic (Now owned by Atheros)'
device = 'Gigabit Ethernet 10/100/1000 Base-T Controller (Atheros L1)'
class = network
subclass = ethernet
the machine disconnects with a "Bad packet length XXXX" or a "Corrupted MAC on input" message when I unzip a simple file through SSH.
>How-To-Repeat:
jcigar@frodon ~ % ssh dev

jcigar@dev ~ % cd tmp
jcigar@dev tmp % unzip elgg-1.7.7.zip

Bad packet length 2190802413.
Disconnecting: Packet corrupt
jcigar@frodon ~ %
(sometimes it also fails with:
Corrupted MAC on input.
Disconnecting: Packet corrupt)
>Fix:
Disabling tcp segmentation offloading (TSO) and RX/CX checksum offloading on the interface seems to work:
jcigar@dev ~ % sudo ifconfig age0 -rxcsum -txcsum -tso
