Did Francois's patch ever make it upstream? I recently tested against a
stock debian sid kernel based on 2.6.26-5, and although my tests were
not exhaustive, it seemed that the 8169 failure mode was still present.

I just tested it. It fails.
after a few unloads/loads the lspci -x output is garbled again. the
funny thing is (i have a dual nic board) its random which one that
breaks..
Francois, i tested your patch,
http://userweb.kernel.org/~romieu/r8169/2.6.26-rc9/20080710-r8169-test.patch against .26 and it WORKS. with all the other tests i've done, ~5 unloads/loads is more than enough to trigger it, i just did 50 on your patch, and it functions.
Now i can have both msi and apic on.. Thanks alot.
Do you have plans to get this merged?
Regards
