Hi,
I encounter a deadlock situation when using nbd device over gigabit ethernet. The network card is 3c 985 giga card using acenic driver. When the network has some significant back ground traffic, even making a ext2 file system can not succeed. When the deadlock happens, the nbd client daemon just stuck in tcp_recvmsg() without receiving any data, and the sender threads continue to send out requests until the whole system hangs. Even I set the nbd client daemon SNDTIMEO, the nbd client daemon could not exit from tcp_recvmsg().
Is there any known problem with the acenic driver? How can I identify it is a problem of the NIC driver, or somewhere else?
Thanks for help!
