> o sundance net drvr: fix DFE-580TX packet drop issue, further reset_tx fixes (contributed by Edward Peng @ D-Link)
Hi,
I'm sorry to say that the packet drop issue is still not solved
with a DF580-TX using four of these chips:
Class 0200: 1186:1002 (rev 12)
Subsystem: 1186:1012
Sending bi-directional streams of UDP-packets with 200-byte payload
through the machine I get zero packet loss and 15% CPU usage with
either eepro100 or tulip-based cards. Using the DFE-580TX I get
15% packet loss and 25% CPU usage. Ifconfig also shows packets
being dropped:
