The following reply was made to PR kern/129352; it has been noted by GNATS. From: Reko Turja <ignatz@liukuma.net> To: bug-followup@FreeBSD.org Cc: Subject: Re: kern/129352: [xl] [patch] xl0 watchdog timeout Date: Sun, 9 Aug 2009 14:56:44 +0300 (EEST) After running the patch from this PR for some days I still got some watchdog timeouts. As another approach, I'm trying the driver revision 1.4 from /src/sys/dev/xl/ (8.x sourcetree) which compiled clean on my system with sources updated as of today. My uname -a: FreeBSD xxx.org 7.2-STABLE FreeBSD 7.2-STABLE #10: Sun Aug 9 14:13:47 EEST 2009 root@xxx.org:/usr/obj/usr/src/sys/MORIA i386 The reason for trying 1.4 was the commit message: SVN rev 191345 on 2009-04-21 00:42:11Z by yongari To make it easy whether xl(4) missed Tx completion interrupt check number of queued packets in watchdog timeout handler. If there are no queued packets just print a informational message and return without resetting controller. Also fix to invoke correct Tx completion handler as 3C905B needs different handler. I will send a followup after testing the driver for a while - if it seems to work, is there any chance of backporting it for 7.x? -Reko
