With SMP enabled, I get the following, and the packet generator aborts quickly: APIC error on CPU0: 40(40) eth0: Too much work at interrupt! eth0: Too much work at interrupt!
Well, it is not clear that the "Too muck work at interrupt" recovery logic really recovers much (be it for vanilla or modified r8169 driver). Does it behave differently if you make the "while (boguscnt > 0);" always true in rtl8169_interrupt() and ask for a finite number of packets (say pgset "count 1000" or more) ? -- Ueimor
