Hi Jack, the patch didn't seem to have any effect. When I run "tcpdump -n arp"
after rebooting with this patch, I still see 2-3 ARPs per minute instead of
100-200 per minute.
I was patching against:
/*$FreeBSD: src/sys/dev/em/if_em.c,v 1.65.2.22 2007/03/01 17:32:27 csjp Exp $*/
Is that correct?
I tried both SMP and non-SMP kernels, with same results. Is there
anything I can do to gather some additional debug information from the
system while it's running?
I neglected to mention before the specific motherboard model:
Supermicro X7DVL-E. There is no IPMI card installed, and no
IPMI setting in the BIOS.
Thanks,
Mark
