If you read the code and I remember right the above change is a NOP. The timeouts have been there and are there. The difference with the last commits is that a lot of people couldn't get the NIC working at all before and now it works (somewhat) but there are timeouts from time to time which for some people seem to auto-recover and for others still get things 'stuck'. The problem is to diagnose what everyone really has - branch running (RELENG_6 or HEAD) - i386 or amd64 - exact FreeBSD revisions for if_nve.c - if using patches which - pciconf -lv | grep -A4 ^nve - which board - exact problems * is the interface working at all * is it just stuck from time to time * ... See http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/query-pr.cgi?pr=94524 for more questions. You my want to submit a fllow up and add your description with the answer to these questions there. -- Bjoern A.
