So, I have gotten this message a couple times now: Sep 4 09:11:32 www /kernel: xl0: no memory for rx list -- packet dropped! Sep 4 09:11:32 www last message repeated 15 times And it is: Aug 9 07:36:59 www /kernel: xl0: <3Com 3c905-TX Fast Etherlink XL> port 0xdc00-0xdc3f irq 11 at device 10.0 on pci0 Aug 9 07:36:59 www /kernel: xl0: Ethernet address: 00:60:97:cf:fa:b4 Aug 9 07:36:59 www /kernel: miibus0: <MII bus> on xl0 On a: www 1427 # uname -a FreeBSD www.uncommoncon.com 4.3-RELEASE FreeBSD 4.3-RELEASE #0: Sat Apr 21 10:54:49 GMT 2001 jkh@narf.osd.bsdi.com:/usr/src/sys/compile/GENERIC i386 Is this some memory leak or bug? Or is this some net-attack? It is on a machine on the inside of the Firewall, so I assume it is a memory leak (or so) right now. Well, OK, so it comes from tl_newbuf() when mbufs can't be had. Question is, why can't we find an mbuf? Did someone lie about an incoming ether frame size? Just flat ran out of mbufs?
