SubjectBNX2: Kernel crashes with 2.6.31 and 2.6.31.9
On a system that was running 2.6.31 since last September I got two
crashes this December at night (cause unknown), yesterday after second
crash I updated kernel to 2.6.31.9 and enabled netconsole in the hope
to get some information about the cause of the crash.

Today system crashed once again and all I got is the following
incomplete trace on the receiving side of netconsole:

Kernel is compiled on Gentoo (64bit):
Linux version 2.6.31.9-x86_64 () (gcc version 4.3.4 (Gentoo 4.3.4 p1.0, pie-10.1.5) ) #1 SMP Mon Dec 28 15:49:16 CET 2009
The affected server (HP DL360 G5) is running OpenSuSE-11.1,
32bit userspace

Any idea if there is a recent patch that could fix this issue? At the
crashing time the server was not specifically loaded and had around
200 packets/s network traffic.

Regards,
Bruno
