Hi Ben,
thanks for the tip! tso was already disabled.
I tried anyway and unfortunately it crashes as before.

I filled a bug report
(https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=197535) and marius@
is giving me a big help on it.

Best regards,
Luca

The one, fairly ugly workaround I've found that makes it work well enough is disable tso ( i.e. ifconfig re0 down && ifconfig re0 -tso && ifconfig re0 up ). This also seems to stop the panics under current.
