Hi,
The 3c59x driver, version v0.30c-all, with the dev->tbusy=0 patch, seems stable. That is to say, I would have expected several of the dreaded "transmitter access conflict" errors by now on another version, or complete Tx hang with v0.40, by now.
Just as a reminder, v0.30c-all seems to fail to note that the transmitter is no longer busy (dev->tbusy flag), if it encounters a transmission timeout. All hell is then free to break out.
Oh, and here's a new socket in the "2.0.30/pre31 leaves sockets in CLOSE" fiasco:
tcp 0 0 *:3333 *:* CLOSE on (4.77/0)
This timer decrements, looping from 0s to 10s, ceaselessly so far....
Chris
