There has been report of non-regression on non-SMP kernel with the following
patches applied (2.6.2-rc1 serie):
r8169-tx-index-overflow.patch
r8169-dma-api-tx.patch
r8169-dma-api-rx-buffers.patch
r8169-dma-api-tx-buffers.patch
r8169-rx_copybreak.patch
r8169-mac-phy-version.patch
r8169-init_one.patch
r8169-timer.patch
r8169-hw_start.patch
r8169-intr_mask.patch
r8169-suspend.patch
r8169-endianness.patch
r8169-getstats.patch
Can you confirm that the driver behaves the same as the standard driver
with a non-SMP enabled kernel ?
Does it make a difference if you give an 'acpi=off' option at boot time ?
r8169-addr-high.patch is not doing its job on amd64 so it is not suggested
to use it at all.
There is something broken wrt SMP and the r8169 patches: do not use both at
the same time. I still have to find what happens here.
