Date: Sat, 28 Mar 1998 22:09:18 +0200 From: Mark Murray Sender: owner-freebsd-current@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG Hi I have been getting funny behaviour from the VX driver (I have a 3com 3c900). Occaisionally (randomly) the card/driver goes into "slow mode", and gives ridiculously slow respose on my local ethernet: PING gratis.grondar.za (196.7.18.133): 56 data bytes 64 bytes from 196.7.18.133: icmp_seq=0 ttl=255 time=989.080 ms 64 bytes from 196.7.18.133: icmp_seq=1 ttl=255 time=980.119 ms 64 bytes from 196.7.18.133: icmp_seq=2 ttl=255 time=970.066 ms 64 bytes from 196.7.18.133: icmp_seq=3 ttl=255 time=960.154 ms 64 bytes from 196.7.18.133: icmp_seq=4 ttl=255 time=950.969 ms 64 bytes from 196.7.18.133: icmp_seq=5 ttl=255 time=940.152 ms 64 bytes from 196.7.18.133: icmp_seq=6 ttl=255 time=930.114 ms 64 bytes from 196.7.18.133: icmp_seq=7 ttl=255 time=920.143 ms 64 bytes from 196.7.18.133: icmp_seq=8 ttl=255 time=910.234 ms 64 bytes from 196.7.18.133: icmp_seq=9 ttl=255 time=900.115 ms 64 bytes from 196.7.18.133: icmp_seq=10 ttl=255 time=890.098 ms 64 bytes from 196.7.18.133: icmp_seq=11 ttl=255 time=880.065 ms 64 bytes from 196.7.18.133: icmp_seq=12 ttl=255 time=870.060 ms 64 bytes from 196.7.18.133: icmp_seq=13 ttl=255 time=860.088 ms 64 bytes from 196.7.18.133: icmp_seq=14 ttl=255 time=850.742 ms Notice how the times slowly improve by 10ms per echo? Strange. Does anyone else see this? At work we have a machine running this card and this driver(?) under RELENG_2_2 (STABLE) and there are no problems. The only fix I know of is a reboot. (ifconfig vx0 up; ifconfig vx0 down does not work).
