Looooong, loooong ago, someone reported a dc driver bug.  However,
a couple of us have tried and failed to reproduce the problem.  I
thought I'd bounce the issue here before completely forgetting about
it.

Cheers,

I got the problem:
FreeBSD computers freezes when i "ping -f -s 50000 any.freebsd.box" from
linux box.
And only reset can help to unfreeze them. There is no errors on screen
or in logs.
There is a number of tested configurations and realises:
FreeBSD 4.4 on:
1. Duron 650, MB=epox(VIA KT133), Network Card=Matronix MX 3191(dc0
kernel module), 10 MBit per second Hub
2. K6-2 333, Mother Board = VIA MVP3, Network Card=Davicom Semiconductor
DM9102AM(dc0 kernel module), 10 MBit per second Hub

With FreeBSD 4.6 on K6-2 333, Mother Board = VIA MVP3, Network
Card=Matronix MX 3191(dc0 kernel module), 10 MBit per second Hub
And Any time i ping with flood and packet size >=30000 all this
configurations get freeze.
IMHO there is a bug with "dc0" kernel module.

To make sure i prodused this test with FreeBSD 4.6 on MB=Lucky Star (VIA
8601T MVP3), integrated network card (Realtek RTL 8139) with another
network kernel module. And there was no errors, freezes or bugs. That's
why i think it's a bug with "dc" module.

Thanks for attention.
