Hi,

I recently upgraded some router/NAT devices from 2.4.25 to 2.6.17.8.
They're using VIA C3 processors and NatSemi DP83815 NICs.

Right after the upgrade I started noticing these error messages on one of
the heavier-loaded boxes. This particular box routes and does NAT for
around 400 users, peaking at 6Mb/sec of throughput.

The errors were happening about every 3-5 minutes. I statically set eth6
to 100baseTX-FD with mii-tool, and now the errors appear every few hours
for 10-20 minute stretches.

I searched Google and couldn't find any insight (FYI, I'm NOT using the
CIPE patches).

Any ideas?

Could you send us, once your machine is handling its typical load :

lspci -v
ethtool -S eth6
tc -s -d qdisc
cat /proc/slabinfo
cat /proc/meminfo
