Re: [PATCH 0/4] atl1: Revised Attansic L1 ethernet driver

Hi,

I've tested the new driver for a couple of days, mostly by running
XDMCP session over the Gbit LAN. Its all working good.

I didn't experience any crashes or slowdowns at all. The driver is
definitly usefull in it current state.

Performance is good, tops at ~40MB/s.

BTW: what is this MSI patch?

gr,
Vasco

I did the the atl1-2.0.2 patch against the 2.6.19.rc6 kernel.

Hi,
there has been another iteration of the driver.

I can confirm the card is working but performance is *really* bad, 200Kb/s
over Gbit LAN.
I tried copying a ~50MB file over SSH and it didn't complete because of a
connection stall.

I also tried turninig off TSO as adviced, but i got the message "operation
not supported".

Hum, did you tried:

ethtool -K tso off eth0

Anyway the new version of the driver keeps TSO off by default, so it
should be fine.
I'm attaching what I'm using here (2.0.3 + my MSI patch).

Luca
